Pros and cons

According to our console expert

Use the Nintendo Switch as a console for in the living room, and as a handheld console for on the go.
With 1 set of Joy-Con controllers, you can play alone or with 2 players.
With the Switch, you're no longer stuck to your living room to play major titles like Skyrim and Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
The 6.2-inch screen seems too small for more than 2 players on the go.

Description

We've tested it ourselves. Read our expert review of the Nintendo Switch here.

The Nintendo Switch is a combination of the traditional living room console and a handheld console for on the go. The Switch can be used in 3 different ways. Place the Switch in the docking station and play your games on the large TV in your living room. Using the console on the go? Play with the controllers on either side of the 6.2-inch screen, similar to the Wii U GamePad. Detach the 2 Joy-Con controllers to play with 2 people, each using one controller. If you have more than 2 controllers, you can play on 1 Nintendo Switch with up to 4 players.

Game releases could be faster, but still a great device.

The legend of Zelda is amazing
Had a lot of fun with it both at home and on the road.
Few games at the moment

The device is comfortable in the hand, even at home it can sometimes be nice to play handheld instead of in the Dock. Was a fun activity on the plane. The device turns on at least for a while every day.

The ideal console wherever you are

Fits well in the hand (not too heavy)
Nice screen with good touch
Games run smoothly
No audio port in the docking (Audio via HDMI)

In most cases I play games in TV mode. But let me be clear that sometimes I just feel like playing in portable mode. It just feels really nice in the hand.

The screen is good, you can read the text clearly and you hardly see the pixels. So the touch is not like the 3DS (where you really have to push) but more like that with modern smartphones.

The Joy-cons feel quite durable. So it's not such a plastic feeling. They snap securely to the console with a distinct click.

Audio is loud and clear. Even at 50% this is already loud enough.

The kickstand is quite pliable but remember that it is made in such a way that it will come off easily if you force it. Eg if you accidentally leave it open when docking. It then shoots loose but you can just reassemble it.

Make sure to choose how you want to buy your games. Or via a cartridge or download via the eShop. There's about 25GB of storage you can use (built into the system, so not an already added microSD). If you know that Zelda takes up such a 13GB space, a microSD card of 64GB or more is definitely recommended. With a cartridge you can load the game via the cartridge and therefore does not take up any space.

All in all, a great console that you certainly won't regret. Games run smoothly and there are always more and more. And if you have to be somewhere, the Nintendo Switch is the ideal entertainer.

fun in a compact format.

easy to use
beautiful graphics
many games on the market
battery doesn't last that long

Very nice console with many options. There are many accessories available and the games are very nice and fun. The switch is easy to use and it is also very nice that you can play many games with more people.

Highly recommended!
