After months of waiting, the Nintendo Switch is finally here, boasting a hybrid design that'll provide both console gaming and on-the-go gaming with a single console. Is Nintendo's upcoming console something you should get excited about, or is it full of gimmicks?

The unique TV-or-mobile gaming proposition of the Nintendo Switch is now matched by a stellar library of games, including instant-classics like new Zelda and Mario titles.

The Nintendo Switch is a versatile hybrid game console that easily pivots between a big-screen TV and on-the-go portable; The initially slim game library now includes a good mixture of must-have Nintendo franchise exclusives, indie titles and even some decent PC ports.

No Virtual Console (yet) means no access to decades worth of classic Nintendo games; The screen feels small during tabletop sessions; Online multiplayer requires matchmaking on a smartphone app, and Hulu is the only entertainment app.

Having not owned a Nintendo console since the gameboy Color, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Once I opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised to see how many accessories were in the box. I even came with a holder for the joycons, wrist straps and even a hdmi cable.

One-part handheld and one-part console, Nintendo's latest piece of hardware wants to be the only device you need for gaming. In many ways it's a big success, offering an exceptional level of handheld graphical quality, before seamlessly transitioning into a home console – but this very adaptability...

Unique hybrid design; HD Rumble; Two controllers included; Bright; crisp; colorful screen

Joy-Cons charge only on console without accessory; Split D-pad; Oddly placed right analogue stick; Limited online service at launch

I both this for my grandson 9 years old he does not like it because he has to hold the console to be able to play , his not into it as mush as the wii , but it's still early .......

Amazing device from Nintendo, can take with you for long drives for kids with a car kit holding screen, 2 monkeys smashing out super bomber man ect. Really thought out game Mario Odyssey Co-op Play so impressive. Play handheld, on TV ect amazing unit Really happy with purchase.

The sticky subject with the Switch is, unfortunately, price. At £280 it's not actually all that much for a brand-new console. Both the PS4 and Xbox One retailed at far higher prices at launch and were arguably nowhere near as versatile.

Took a little while to get used to controls as I'm used to playing Xbox; On the whole tho it's a fab bit of kit

The product is great and I love it. But there is one thing I can't support, these guys didn't send it with cushions so the console wasn't playing around, plus one of the tow bracelets was broken because of that.

Spent ￡320 on the console and one game for my 11 year old son for Christmas. 5 months and 4 expensive games later and he says its boring because he has completed all the games. I can't keep buying any more and he doesn't get enough pocket money to buy them himself.
