Nintendo switch

[Beef Boss]

For those of you who own one, would recommend someone to buy one? 

I'm pretty interested in buying one, it seems to have a great selection of games. I like the whole joystick concept with it too and I'd like a new mobile console that's more centered around games than a phone. 

 

Are they worth the 300 runes? And what first games would you suggest? I've never played Zelda and it seems very popular?

I gotta say, even paying $400 for mine from a scalper off eBay, I'm pretty satisfied. I love mario kart, zelda, shovel knight, and mario odyssey, and slapping it in and out of the dock on a whim is awesome.

I've had mine for about 4 months now and its so great!

 

I go on work trips regularly during the summer and it was super great to have on me. During school, its easy to use on the bus and in my downtime.

 

Stardew Valley is a go to for me, but I've had a lot of fun with Mario Odyssey. I don't like mario games that much but its so much fun.

imo you might as well just buy a Ipad or some other tablet, nintendo switches are 300-400$ and a ipad mini 4 with 128gb is 400$, and the new ipad with 32gb is 329$.

you can play stardew on the pc as well.

I have used a switch before, but i did not enjoy the experiance. just buy a xbox 1 or ps4.

Depends if any of the games interest you.

 

As a on the go handheld console, it is a treat.  Got mine late last year (wish I got it sooner, would been dope to take downrange).  So far, I enjoyed mine a lot.

The games so far I played on mine are Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (drop over 100+ hours on that), Disgaea 5 Complete (huge eater of time), Enter the Gungeon (fun little Indie), Hollow Knight (if you like Metroidvanias, get it).

A ton of the games interest me, I think I'm gonna get one when I get paid again. Thankz! 

[SpriteNo5]

I'd recommend one for BOTW alone. Bought one played the hell outta that game and hardly used since. Don't regret the purchase.

It's actually a pretty good game that really plays to one of the Switch's most unique features. We have had powerful portable consoles before, we've had home consoles with motion controls before. Touch screen gaming is also a thing and has been for a while. But there really hasn't been another gaming device before the Switch where you can sit a screen on a table and share a controller with a second player. Simple 2D fighting games in particular shine on this system.

 

For me I've found that games like "Keep talking and Nobody Explodes" and the Jackbox party Pack games have been the biggest surprise. They've basically replaced Cards Against Humanity as the games night staple for me. I'm also kinda interested in the idea of Mario Party for the first time in a long time for the same reason.

At the end of the day, the only thing which really matters is the games. I'm not fond of the build quality, and it is too cumbersome to really leave the house, but it is the only place you're playing certain games at the moment. If you really want to play those games in particular, get one.
