[s2k]

casual gamer, has ps5,

 

[Genius/GZA]

series s, retro arch, remote play on phone

 

[BlasterMaster]

Yes

 

[BStork]

No.

 

[Werm]

Simply for Zelda games, yes.

I've purchased them over and over again just for Zelda.

 

[Keksimus]

Nah

 

[Highlander_77]

Maybe

 

[Keksimus]

Breath of the Wild and Metroid: Dread were pretty tight but not worth buying a console for

 

[Keksimus]

Mine collects dust because it's worthless other than for the good exclusives here and there that come out every few years

 

[siflnolly]

Pondering that same question. Wanna get into mario kart

 

[gthesob]

If you like the kind of games they carry, not as a substitute for a PS or Xbox.

 

[Highlander_77]

Aside from the occasional Nintendo exclusive, the main reason to have a Switch is for the portability. If you think you would take advantage of that aspect, then sure, go for it. Otherwise I could only really recommend it at this point if you REALLY love Mario/Zelda/Metroid/Pokemon.

There’s one under the tree right now for my 6 year old

 

[victor77]

If you want to ply Zelda and Mario, sure. Otherwise no.

I wouldn't bother, most games that you can DL suck.

Bought the OLED version for my SO. She plays Animal Crossing. I sometimes play Rocket League on it. Other than that, I don't know what else I would play. Not a big gamer anymore. It's a nice little device though.

 

[Hisma]

The graphics are equivalent of a high end phone at this point. Wait for the next generation imo

 

[T2 Tsunami]

Depends...when was the last time you turn on your current system?

 

[SlowNegative]

For a kid yes. Otherwise no.

my boys and my wife and I all love our switch. we basically play the mario games and zelda.

mario party
mario odyssey
super mario delux
mario maker 2
breath of the wild (worth it for this game alone, can't wait for the sequel)
Luigi's Mansion (a totally awesome and very underrated game)
Animal crossing

i also enjoy playing old nintendo titles on it but i also have most of them on my old Wii which also has awesome games that i enjoy replaying sometimes.

Some of the bigger gamds that are coming next year:

Splatoon 3
Breath of the Wild 2
Kirby and the Forgotten Land
Bayonetta 3
Mario + Rabbids: Spark of Hope
Pokemon Legends Arceus

Most of these are coming out in the first half of the year and Nintendo hasn't released their second half schedule yet. So you have 6 games that will most likely be great + everything else that's already out.

If you're not into Nintendo games and aren't interested in what's out already then keep your money and don't buy a Switch.

 

[Foolish]

Havent touched mine in 2 years

 

[cyclaptor]

Absolutely. I border between casual and serious. It's nice to play for a few minutes here and there on my switch, and not commit to an hours long slog.

 

[wait*what]

are you 12?

are you a virgin?
