    Great port of Skyrim. I played the Original release on the Xbox 360. Visual updates are on part with the PS4 Version. Plays great and has the Skyrim Jank that we all love. Good for those who want to play it on the go.

    This is a pretty well done port. Motion controls play pretty tight, but of course, there's all the same bugs that plagued the game throughout these past 6 years

    Bought this because I just beat Zelda and had an itch for a new open world game. I had never played Skyrim before but this game is great on the Switch. It looks good, plays good, runs smooth and is super fun!

    I have heard all about Skyrim and I know the game is 6 years old but I have never played it and I must say I can see why this game still gets a lot of high praise. It is amazing that this is now a portable game. You can play this for almost ever. An amazing value for retail price. Pick it up if you have never played.

    By And Large The Best Version

    Having Skyrim in a handheld format has reinvigorated the game for me. I owned it on 360 upon its initial release and then again when the version with all the expansions came out. I loved it, but by the time GTA V came out I was unimpressed with Skyrim's scope and range of activities. Something about having it on the handheld has brought it new life. Being able to take it anywhere physically has made the game feel broader. It still lacks a lot of activities and verticality present in newer sandboxes but I've come to appreciate it so much more. It also looks fantastic on the small screen. For me this has become the best version.

    Skyrim on the go. SKYRIM. ON. THE. GO. If you've never played this game, there are definitely prettier versions, but you can't really play them on the go. Portable Skyrim is a huge selling point and this 6 year-old game is a must-buy for anybody who loved it once already, or wants to give it a try.

    Finally A Real RPG With Fantastic Graphics is available for the Nintendo Switch. The Game runs smooth and the graphics are terrific. Just the game I have been waiting for since I got the Switch. If you have played or never played the Elder Scroll Story Line this is a must add for your collection

    This is a dream come true to gamers who loves elder scroll Skyrim. This time players get the option to play this game at home or on the go and in hd. So to those who have not play this game or more than willing to venture into this world in beautiful hd graphics again this is the option.

    In case you haven't spent enough time playing Skyrim previously, you can now play it on the go. The best part of playing on the Switch is that it takes only 2 seconds to go from not playing to fighting dragons. You can play for only a minute or you can play endlessly. It's so convenient.

    I own Skyrim on the PS3, PS4, and PC, but jumped at the chance to get it for the Switch just for the portability. While the Switch isn't the most powerful or graphically impressive of the current consoles, it still handles this game well. If you are looking for an RPG that gives you a great about of freedom to be who/what you want, and has a ton of interesting quests and places to explore, pick up Skyrim. It has hundreds - if not thousands - of hours of entertainment.

    What can I say other than they got it right . . . I was a bit worried before purchasing that a game the size of Skyrim would function on a mobile device like the Nintendo Switch but from the moment I started it was clear Bethesda Games & Nintendo Switch knocked it out of the park . . .
