Nintendo Switch Review

 

Attractive, innovative design ; Excellent game library ; Solid build quality ; Joy-Cons feel comfortable to use in multiple configurations

Short battery life ; Online service needs work ; Flimsy kickstand

The Nintendo Switch works as both a home game console and a handheld, offering access to a remarkably strong library of excellent games on your TV at home or in your hands on the go.

Nintendo Switch Online

 

Nintendo Switch Online is a necessary subscription if you want to play Switch games on the internet. It has classic NES and SNES games, as well as Tetris 99, but the way it implements its various features can be frustrating.

Enables online multiplayer. NES and SNES Classic Game Library. Includes Tetris 99.

Voice chat is unwieldy and requires a smartphone. Cloud saves don't work with all games.

Bottom Line: Nintendo Switch Online is a necessary subscription if you want to play Switch games on the internet. It has classic NES and SNES games, as well as Tetris 99, but the way it implements its various features can be frustrating.
