    The Nintendo - Switch Fortnite Double Helix Console Bundle is a great bundle package for older gamers. Priced the same as the system alone, this one offers the added game out of the box. PROS - Nintendo name and quality - Growing game selection for purchase and download - Larger screen than past handheld devices - Use as a handheld or play on your big screen with ease - Decent manufacturer's warranty CONS - General cost, same as an Xbox One - Games are costly as well

    My children love this game system. They take it from the big HD tv to taking it on the go in seconds. Easy to use and very good selection of games.

    A Great Portable Console

    For a fan of Nintendo, this console is perfect. It offers both a full screen experience with a computer monitor, or TV, and a nice portable experience. Battery life is long enough, a few hours, and the USB C connectivity is a big nonproprietary plus. It runs cool, and I’ve had no freezes or glitches. You have the option of purchasing a conventional controller, similar to an xbox controller, This is an option I wishe the Wii would have had. I can recommend this console if you like the games available, and the games coming.

    Be prepared to buy new axis controllers

    Be prepared to buy new axis controllers or the parts to fix it yourself. I have two of these and both axis controls are bad... That's a total of four between two switches that we didn't even buy together (4 months apart). Also, on one of them, the onboard sound went out. Headphones still work, plugging it in to the tv still had sound, but no sound from the switches' speakers. Also mic functions don't work. I should send both back to Best buy for the year warranty but my kids have also managed to break the glass on one of them... They both have secondary glass Shields! Lastly, playing games on here is really hard to do so you can't see what's going on let alone read the print.

    I own a ps4, xbox one and now a switch, the switch is the best gaming console, it falls short as an all in one entertainment center compared to the others with the other two, but as a gaming consoles its the best due to the 1st party games which are the best out of all consoles and the fact that its a portable console and a tv console in one.

    Great gaming console in my mind, especially if you have kids or the need to keep a group of people occupied. Lots of classic Nintendo styled games, but modernized (as expected.) The portability of it is also worth mentioning, makes it very easy when the T.V. is a hot commodity. Also have not had any issues with the Switch.

    I’ve bought 2 in the last year. It very easy to setup. Only issue that I have got was with the joy cons. They start to auto move even when calibrated.

    I love the Switch. I'm able to play my games handheld, on the big screen, or propped up a distance from me while I take the remotes off. The remotes allow me to place my arms at my sides which is great for my shoulders and wrists vs a normal controller.

    I def recommend this portable switch. Keeps the kids entertained and are able to play with others who have a switch in hand. The only thing is after a while the analog doesn’t work well so get the protection plan.

    My 10yo grandson loves everything about it! Complete fun, and can easily take it on the go or hook up to his Xbox system! He earned money to pay for it, and definitely thinks it’s worth it. He replaced his original handheld Nintendo, and couldn’t be happier!

    This is a nice console to have. It is fun for the whole family. games are very expensive new but otherwise fun and addictive. The ability to play with your console on a tv or on the go is what makes this a great investment.

    I am not a real gamer, but I am in love with my switch. As a nearly 30 year old female, it probably makes me a nerd, but I've barely been able to put it down during my free time. I love playing! It's my new escape!

    The New Gameboy

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I'm a gameboy girl. Born and raised. I never really got into the Nintendo DS but the Switch basically IS an oversized and WAY more advanced version of well, the Gameboy Advance. And I am definitely ok with that :D I hope that Nintendo keeps the portable nature of gameboy alive through only slight modifications because I will be a lifelong customer! As for the Fortnite incentive.. the skin is a copy of an existing skin but in a different color so enh to that but I do love Fortnite and it came with v-bucks so it's all good. Maybe for the next Switch, Epic Games can offer a Nintendo exclusive/original skin.

    My 10 year old loves this Nintendo switch fortnite edition. If it was up to him he would play 24/7. He also has a PS4 but he prefers the switch over the PS4 now. He can play it anywhere.
