I haven’t actually had a problem with screen scratches at all. I’ve had my switch since last Christmas and I never bought a screen protector. I just make sure to be the most careful mf-er on the planet when I put it in the dock. It’s definitely plausible to make it without one and have no screen scratches.
I got a small scactch just from accidentally touching my joycon with the screen (theres an area that is slightly sharp in the side so i recommend adding the strap thing that you slide to the joycon)
Interestingly, ine of the cheaper screens is one of the best and easiest to apply. The ONN brand Switch screen protector has a nifty applicator to make it easy.

It's weird that none of the Nintendo Switch games have me coming back for more. The only thing I'm looking forward to on the console is animal crossing
When I first got the Nintendo switched I had no idea what to start with. I saw that legend of Zelda had some good reviews so bought it. I didn’t think I’d like it because I never play storyline games, but omg I was BLOWN AWAY with that game. Also, you do not need to have any knowledge of passed Zelda games. BOTW was the first legend of Zelda game I’ve ever played, and since the guy you are playing lost his memory, you learn about what happened at the same pace as him. I just recently bought animal crossing NH and it continues to impress me and keep me playing for hours lol. I reccomend starting with animal crossing and legend of zelda. Both will keep you entertained for a long time.
We badly need a switch premium. A Glass screen protected with industry wide corilla glass 5 and a premium matte finish on the sides. Screen should be almost bezeless from screen to joycons. A Super Amoled screen running at 1080P 60fps. Using Tegra's new 11nm chip

@@shielamarieternura9322 I really enjoy the game! And I play with my friends as well. So definitely yes from the enjoyment.

It can play switch games, that's why it's included in the switch family. Saying that, I really don't like the lite anyway, it seems pointless honestly.
My advice is to savings, as the switch is a much bigger investment than any other platform. only get exclusives, as switch games are more expensive than buying them on other platforms (as well as having lower visuals). opting for other controller brands is a good way to cut down on costs, you will miss out on some features, but Nintendo charges a lot for controllers and other accessories. If you plan on playing handheld mode a lot, buying grips is a wise investment.
@@Alexeon the sn 30 pro+ is good option imo. It's like a cross between a snes controller and a PlayStation controller (my preferred controller), has everything but amibo support (which I don't have any) and costs half what the Nintendo pro controller does.
I don't mind paying higher prices because I like handheld mode and the durability of cartridges. Still, it's up to you for what you want to on your Switch.

William BeBeau facts tho. I was surprised at how expensive the games were. I’ve bought super smash bro’s, Mario kart, legend of Zelda, and animal crossing (over a span of a couple months). I’m not buying anymore because nothing else is worth the money tbh.
@@redoarceneaux1203 Pokémon, while it's still pretty good and still a solid option, as a video game buying addict myself, the game is just a bit lackluster and feels a bit rough around the edges when compared to those other titles mentioned.

Wallerock16 Yes, it’s easier I have a Xbox,PC and a switch my brother has a PS4&PS3 out of all of them the switch is the best it’s easier to travel with and now that there’s the coved-19 and Nintendo released animal crossing,I’ve been so obsessed in my opinion it’s worth it!
I actually have the lite, just got it actually. It’s been amazing since I don’t really have other people to play with and I’m never in one spot. Not to mention I love watching tv while I’m playing (yes, I’m Weird... I know). Also since I’ve never had an actual switch, I don’t know what it’s like to have the detachable joycons and what not (ok now I sound like my grandma😂) I got the lite because I really missed the portable era, being someone who had all of the game boys and the last thing I had being a 2ds (I think??) (😑 someone stole it though but we won’t go there) So anyway in closing, if you don’t plan to play multiplayer or any types of just dance games or even if you travel ALOT maybe bus rides to and from school and stuff like that I’d recommend the switch lite because it’s more portable and lightweight.. and compared to my cousin’s regular switch it feels less “breakable “ (honestly I don’t know if that last bit even made sense)
I’m planning on buying the Nintendo lite for when I go to uni (even though we already have a Nintendo switch) it just seems more portable and easy to use. the joycons felt weird when I first tried them but they’re really fun to use 😊
My wife and I pulled the trigger on getting the family a Switch for Christmas during the Black Friday sales this year. This video contains a lot of useful information for a new owner like myself. It also gives me something to do while I not-so-patiently wait for Christmas morning so we can finally dive in to the family fun!
I’m getting a switch in three days and I’m honestly so excited lol. I didn’t go for the normal Nintendo games because they’re priced up for the holidays, but I did get a few less popular games!
ive been wanting one forever and there is only one gift under the tree for me. Since its expensive, id expect that. I THINK IM GETTING A SWITCH!!! its rougly the size of the switch box at my friends, but I couldnt accuratly measure it, since I cant touch the gifts until tomorow morning. WISH ME LUCK BOISSSS Update: I got one this morning! mery kerstmis!
I got so scared when you said there where 2 versions of the regular switch and one of them had significantly less battery life. I did check and I have the newer one. Thank god
Love the pacing of these videos, not so fast it sounds like you've had too much caffeine like so many others and not too slow you feel like your time is being wasted. I can take it all in and understand what I heard/watched by the end of it, even when I'm doing something else, good job! 👍
Fun fact if u go into themes and select black rather than white ur battery goes down slightly slower when ur in the home screen I also recommend turning on the ability to view ur battery percentage and not buying a screen protector as a good quality case is enough
Screen protector is important for both the standard and Lite models that's the first thing that should be purchased, then the microSD card (128GB and up). For controllers you can go the Pro Controller & Joy Con route or if you have the switch's dock use the 8bitdo bluetooth receiver to use your Xbone, DualShock 4, other Bluetooth controllers that you might already have.
Note that you CAN transfer your downloaded games from one sd card to switch internal memory, and vice versa. So you can more easily upsize to a bigger SD card this way
Even though I already have a switch, this is one of the best videos I've seen on people who are interested in one and even people like me who already own one. Simple, straight forward and full of information, thank you!
I got a switch it's so worth it. :) However, I did spend more money on Switch accessory than Switch itself. Such as Memory card, Screen protector, Carrying case, Protector case, Ground Loop Noise Isolator, USB C cable, ethernet port, extra Joycon, and pro controllers. And top of that games. Still love my switch.
I just bought a Switch a few days ago. It's my first console purchase since the PS3 came out (First Nintendo one too!). The video was very helpful, thanks for helping me get started.
This was actually really very helpful thank you, I've always had playstations and are just now looking to branch out for some variety and this video has made up my mind to finally get a switch.... all the best and respect all the way from the uk and once again thank you for the info
Thank you, bought one today and there was info here that id like to have know before (no regret on my decision tonight anyway!) I have an XB1X and a decent PC but I travel for work so I decided this would be easier to take away. Also Nintendo has a lot of "Fun & Easy Games" that I hope might get my partner into Gaming. Cheers for the vid
I have never played anything past SNES…my life got very difficult in the 90s….I have been playing my old Atari, NES and SNES all these years…but controllers are wearing down, tvs are not as compatible…so I’ve decided after 30 years to upgrade. I’ve missed out on a lot but I can still play my classic games which is Important to me and do some much needed catch up. Thank you for this review it was a HUGE help!
Good briefing of what the console is what it offers. I, personally, was expecting something like "if you're buying this for a kid between 4 and 8, these are the games they might like" or "if you haven't had a nintendo console since the SNES or N64, there are new DKC and Mario games", or "if you love RPGs, then these are the main ones in the console". And "if you're buying this for your two kids, buy another controller so the original joycons dont wear out so quickly". But great video still
Nintendo Switch is the best console for me so far. I've played so many consoles/hand helds, but nothing feels home like the switch. What's so great about it is its portability, you can bring it to almost everywhere and play
Having the choice between a switch and switch lite at this point is almost non existent. The regular is completely sold out and the lite is hardly available, so act fast
I managed to score a Switch V2 bundle thanks to a friend helping keep an eye out online. Within maybe an hour of scoring myself the bundle, GameSlop's entire inventory had sold out! Probably mostly to scumbag hoarders that will try to price gouge bored and switch-yearning gamers, but still. The stock disappears fast!
I hope Nintendo remakes the Harvest Moon games for the switch.. I always loved playing those back in the day. They remind me a lot of Animal Crossing but with more in depth story lines
In July (at least in Germany) there will be a remake from a harvest moon game - friends of mineraltown. But the Original harvest moon ist now known as story of seasons. I loved to play this game when I was a child, so I am looking forward to it really badly. ❤
I don't have a Switch, only watched this to see if it's worth it to buy this console. I kinda want it for 1. Nintendo exclusives (including older ones, which apparently are available with the online subscription), 2. because you can play docked on a TV or mobile (for when I have to go in another room or maybe play on a plane trip) 3. PCs and nex-gen consoles are either way above their MSPR or out of stock
This is crazy i was looking at finally buying me Switch i was looking at Systems / Games / Accessories etc.... i fire up UA-cam and i run into this video. Lol very helpful.
DVN MND I’m having the opposite reaction. I’m coming from Xbox and so far I prefer every single aspect of that console’s controller, except that I like that my pro controller has a blue light (I just like blue lol)
Here are thing i think a needed when getting a switch (or switch lite) 1. Screen protector (because the dock can scratch your screen) 2. Carrying case ( so your switch doesn't get all broken on the go) 3. a micro SD card 64GB or less 4. a game. Any Zelda or Mario game is good but animal crossing is also one to consider and that's it the rest can be bought later, Happy gaming :)
It would be great to have a new version of this video, but mentioning each genre and a few of the game that fit there. Jrpg: xeno 1, 2, three houses, octopath, etc. Shooter: splatoon, doom And with an emphasis on exclusives like Astral Chain
"It's also one of the only games where people will make fun of you for not using motion controls". He said that as I was making fun of him in my head for using motion controls 😆
Well thanks for the video, ran across you by accident I was thinking about getting one and I was just looking at some reviews, so this is kind of like what you were expecting people like me to find so thank you
I literaly clicked on this video because i'm getting a Nintedo switch for Christmas and i wanna hype myself up, but this is a great video man really helpful as well 👍
I hope they release all the Neptunia games on the Switch. Played them on PC and vita, would love to play them again on the Switch. Those are great handheld games. It's a stretch, but I hope the original trilogy gets released on PS3 get ported to other systems.
You guys should definitely start off with Touhou Genso Wanderer (the reloaded one) and Super Meat Boy including Castle Crashers. These are superb indie games and they're also kinda kid friendly just like the good old flash games on Newgrounds.
i'm so pumped. I just got a switch after trying for about a month now! I'm so excited for it to come so I'm watching a bunch of unboxing and tutorial videos hahah

For anyone getting a Switch, I'd advise getting a screen protector as well. For a Nintendo console, the Switch is fairly delicate.
Yes, a screen protector is quite important. Otherwise the Switch dock scratches the Switch screen.

Weird ass thing to get happy about....

My wife and I pulled the trigger on getting the family a Switch for Christmas during the Black Friday sales this year. This video contains a lot of useful information for a new owner like myself. It also gives me something to do while I not-so-patiently wait for Christmas morning so we can finally dive in to the family fun!
I’m getting a switch in three days and I’m honestly so excited lol. I didn’t go for the normal Nintendo games because they’re priced up for the holidays, but I did get a few less popular games!
get super mario odyssey the price is down
Just bought it yesterday and I love it!
Do you like it?
@@thn4296 I got legend of zelda breath of the wild instead
ive been wanting one forever and there is only one gift under the tree for me. Since its expensive, id expect that. I THINK IM GETTING A SWITCH!!! its rougly the size of the switch box at my friends, but I couldnt accuratly measure it, since I cant touch the gifts until tomorow morning. WISH ME LUCK BOISSSS
Update: I got one this morning! mery kerstmis!
I recommend playing mario games first, because you will get used to the switch and also, it’s really fun!
I got so scared when you said there where 2 versions of the regular switch and one of them had significantly less battery life. I did check and I have the newer one. Thank god
Got one for Christmas. Botw explorer edition just came in the mail today. I'll see you guys next summer because I'll be in hyrule for a few months 😊😊😊
I know that feeling man I bought that game with the Switch and I wasn't able to put it down until I basically 100% the game.
Himmel I never have that feeling
you back?
😂 lmao
And
As a new Switch owner - a screen protector and pro controller are a must.
Love the pacing of these videos, not so fast it sounds like you've had too much caffeine like so many others and not too slow you feel like your time is being wasted. I can take it all in and understand what I heard/watched by the end of it, even when I'm doing something else, good job! 👍
13:20 Quality content, indeed
what's the name of the game? asking for a neighbour
@@MarmotStarpax i asume it the senran kagura game that you see the box of at 6:42
@@zexsolz5009 thanks
I already own a switch. Still, I'd say this covers a good amount. it feels like something of a "beginners guide to the Nintendo Switch"
Fun fact if u go into themes and select black rather than white ur battery goes down slightly slower when ur in the home screen I also recommend turning on the ability to view ur battery percentage and not buying a screen protector as a good quality case is enough
Also the newer model doesn’t heat up as much
I got one for my kids for christmas. Cant wait for them to open it!
how old are they?
Were they happy?
I wish you were my dad
Anyone els watching cause they are getting one for christmas?
yess, im acually getting it for my birthday but its one month after christmas
yesssss
Already got one
@Mr.PizzaGamerBoi i got mine last Thursday
My mom said she'll get me one once they're back in stock but I don't know....
Step one: Get enough money to get one 😞
Step 2:try to Handel starving to death
Edwin Rendon step 3: Sell ur house
Step 4: sell your organs

@@zzider8005 Step 5:become an android(get rid of apple)
Screen protector is important for both the standard and Lite models that's the first thing that should be purchased, then the microSD card (128GB and up). For controllers you can go the Pro Controller & Joy Con route or if you have the switch's dock use the 8bitdo bluetooth receiver to use your Xbone, DualShock 4, other Bluetooth controllers that you might already have.
I just got mine a few days ago so this video is perfect timing for me!
Plutiee has a Switch everyone 👀
plutia congrats, i got mine a couple weeks ago, i love it.
I'm gonna to get one soon
I just bought one for my family for Christmas. This was very helpful. Thanks!
You mean for yourself.
Where to start: apparently Peach Ball
Ok
Ight
Yep
Mad
@@shom924 what
Note that you CAN transfer your downloaded games from one sd card to switch internal memory, and vice versa. So you can more easily upsize to a bigger SD card this way
Even though I already have a switch, this is one of the best videos I've seen on people who are interested in one and even people like me who already own one.
Simple, straight forward and full of information, thank you!
I got a switch it's so worth it. :)
However, I did spend more money on Switch accessory than Switch itself.
Such as Memory card, Screen protector, Carrying case, Protector case, Ground Loop Noise Isolator, USB C cable, ethernet port, extra Joycon, and pro controllers.
And top of that games.
Still love my switch.
Davilas Vas yeah it's expensive as heck
I just bought a Switch a few days ago. It's my first console purchase since the PS3 came out (First Nintendo one too!). The video was very helpful, thanks for helping me get started.
Where to begin? Why, Breath of the Wild of course!
Amen
Smash
No beach ball
Odyssey!
Animal crossing ;)
This was actually really very helpful thank you, I've always had playstations and are just now looking to branch out for some variety and this video has made up my mind to finally get a switch.... all the best and respect all the way from the uk and once again thank you for the info
I like the joycon and the grip that came in the box. I'm not picky. Some people complain about everything. Probably because it's Nintendo.
Thank you, bought one today and there was info here that id like to have know before (no regret on my decision tonight anyway!)
I have an XB1X and a decent PC but I travel for work so I decided this would be easier to take away.
Also Nintendo has a lot of "Fun & Easy Games" that I hope might get my partner into Gaming.
Cheers for the vid
I do not do anything I do I have right to get done with my job interview with the job I have to work on a schedule
I live in the US and I got mine for $299 from Amazon last week, it's my first time using one but I knew how to work it surprisingly.
I have never played anything past SNES…my life got very difficult in the 90s….I have been playing my old Atari, NES and SNES all these years…but controllers are wearing down, tvs are not as compatible…so I’ve decided after 30 years to upgrade. I’ve missed out on a lot but I can still play my classic games which is Important to me and do some much needed catch up. Thank you for this review it was a HUGE help!
Good briefing of what the console is what it offers. I, personally, was expecting something like "if you're buying this for a kid between 4 and 8, these are the games they might like" or "if you haven't had a nintendo console since the SNES or N64, there are new DKC and Mario games", or "if you love RPGs, then these are the main ones in the console".
And "if you're buying this for your two kids, buy another controller so the original joycons dont wear out so quickly". But great video still
Getting mine tomorrow 😀. Would've been nice today since it's my birthday but better late than never.
I bought one 3 weeks ago this is very helpful. Good timing for this before peak holiday shopping.
Nintendo Switch is the best console for me so far. I've played so many consoles/hand helds, but nothing feels home like the switch. What's so great about it is its portability, you can bring it to almost everywhere and play
i’ve had a switch for nearly 3 years, why am i watching this
nice video though
Got mine last week love this great tips :)
@@DustyJones1997BGCL awesome, have fun with it!!
Having the choice between a switch and switch lite at this point is almost non existent. The regular is completely sold out and the lite is hardly available, so act fast
I managed to score a Switch V2 bundle thanks to a friend helping keep an eye out online.
Within maybe an hour of scoring myself the bundle, GameSlop's entire inventory had sold out!
Probably mostly to scumbag hoarders that will try to price gouge bored and switch-yearning gamers, but still. The stock disappears fast!
12:22 you heard it here folks.
Screw Xbox series X
We got ourselves an Xbox 3
Are you stupid the Xbox one is the third Xbox
Xbox is irrelevant anyway
@@colton.421 so irrelevant that you decided to comment about it? Cool story.
Big Jus Here we have a *salty Xbox fan!*
@@colton.421 lol. Grow up
I hope Nintendo remakes the Harvest Moon games for the switch.. I always loved playing those back in the day. They remind me a lot of Animal Crossing but with more in depth story lines
In July (at least in Germany) there will be a remake from a harvest moon game - friends of mineraltown. But the Original harvest moon ist now known as story of seasons.
I loved to play this game when I was a child, so I am looking forward to it really badly. ❤
Try playing stardew valley, its fun game that closed to harvest moon.. iam harvest moon fan, but very pleased playing stardew valey on switch 😊
I finally ordered one today!! Im so excited it will be arriving tomorrow!! 🥰😍 thanks for the video!!
I don't have a Switch, only watched this to see if it's worth it to buy this console. I kinda want it for 1. Nintendo exclusives (including older ones, which apparently are available with the online subscription), 2. because you can play docked on a TV or mobile (for when I have to go in another room or maybe play on a plane trip) 3. PCs and nex-gen consoles are either way above their MSPR or out of stock
Thanks for the info! Bout to buy a switch! I’m so old and out of touch with video games these days! Thanks for filling me in!
How u like it?
12:19 "if your used to voice chat like on the ps4 and xbox 3"
True XD
MHGen, Skyrim, diablo 3, dragons dogma, and darksouls. You’re good for the next three years.
This is crazy i was looking at finally buying me Switch i was looking at Systems / Games / Accessories etc.... i fire up UA-cam and i run into this video. Lol very helpful.
Just ordered my switch! Nintendo Switch will be my first ever gaming console!
Lmao I just got me a pro controller and I can't stop noticing how great it feels in my hands everytime I pick it up
DVN MND I’m having the opposite reaction. I’m coming from Xbox and so far I prefer every single aspect of that console’s controller, except that I like that my pro controller has a blue light (I just like blue lol)
DVN MND i agree, i play all platforms and the switch pro controller is easily the most comfortable in my hands.
Are you sure you are talking about a video game controller here?
I bought the animal crossing edition switch and I’m now just watching every video about Nintendo to prepare while I wait for its arrival lol
This was so helpful I’m getting one for Christmas
Here are thing i think a needed when getting a switch (or switch lite)
1. Screen protector (because the dock can scratch your screen)
2. Carrying case ( so your switch doesn't get all broken on the go)
3. a micro SD card 64GB or less
4. a game. Any Zelda or Mario game is good
but animal crossing is also one to consider
and that's it the rest can be bought later, Happy gaming :)
You did a very good job on explaining. My Mom and Dad might be getting me the Nintendo Switch for my Birthday,I can't wait.
It would be great to have a new version of this video, but mentioning each genre and a few of the game that fit there.
Jrpg: xeno 1, 2, three houses, octopath, etc.
Shooter: splatoon, doom
And with an emphasis on exclusives like Astral Chain
"It's also one of the only games where people will make fun of you for not using motion controls". He said that as I was making fun of him in my head for using motion controls 😆
I would recommend Tales of Vesperia Remaster. It is my favorite on the system so far.
What's it about?
what crunchy said
Well thanks for the video, ran across you by accident I was thinking about getting one and I was just looking at some reviews, so this is kind of like what you were expecting people like me to find so thank you
I literaly clicked on this video because i'm getting a Nintedo switch for Christmas and i wanna hype myself up, but this is a great video man really helpful as well 👍
I have had a switch for 3 years now. Why am I watching this 😂
I hope they release all the Neptunia games on the Switch. Played them on PC and vita, would love to play them again on the Switch. Those are great handheld games. It's a stretch, but I hope the original trilogy gets released on PS3 get ported to other systems.
You guys should definitely start off with Touhou Genso Wanderer (the reloaded one) and Super Meat Boy including Castle Crashers. These are superb indie games and they're also kinda kid friendly just like the good old flash games on Newgrounds.
i'm so pumped. I just got a switch after trying for about a month now! I'm so excited for it to come so I'm watching a bunch of unboxing and tutorial videos hahah
YES FINALLY A CANADIAN NINTENDO CHANNEL, I HATE HAVING TO LOOK UP A CURRENCY CONVERTER WHEN I WANT SOMETHING ON A VIDEO
Botw was one of the best games I got, don't forget to grab Hyrule Warriors for the switch and Smash Ultimate! They're the best games in my opinion 💖
Me: *watches this even tho I don’t even own a switch*
Luci’s Insanity No one cares
Same
Same here but I'm planning on using my book allowance to get 1.
RIP
Not sure if I’m going on my trip right now to get my own house now and I’m doing my best to my job and I do have not right orange right right away right right and
I'm insulted that you didn't even include smash ultimate
knapperige knaap I hate smash terrible online servers regret buying the game
@@tigerabdu6264 it's true that the switch online is not the best but still, i see smash as a celebration of gaming and it's awesome to see the characters from your favourite game fight it out.
SAY IT LOUDER FIR THE PEOPLE AT THE BACK!
@@jurre4279 waluigi
Yess thanks for this!!! I just bought it and wanted to know what to play first or spend. Thank You
If I got a nintendo switch, I will play Kirby and the forgotten land and no one will ever stop me from playing it until it's 100% complete!
12:23 “ps4 and Xbox 3”

It IS the third Xbox. (Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox one)

My Nintendo switch is on its way so I’m watching every video I can find. I really excited about it :)
me having one for like 2 years, “ah i need this vidoe”
Me: Watches how to get started with a switch, when I've owned one for over a couple years
Hi, I got a switch last week! I decided to save for the normal one because I have big hands even though I don't play on other other mode than handheld.
Amazing video. I am thinking about buy a switch and this video has everything I wanted to know.
Thank you so much!
Thanks I'm getting a switch today and you were a one stop shop for all the info I was wondering about
I'll buy a nintendo switch at christmas😍

I'm planning of getting the animal crossing limited version on march *-* hope my mom doesn't change her mind lmao
Anyways... What's the pro version???

@@tsu3489 I'm also looking for one...I called my nearest gamestop and they said they might be getting a couple of them in on March 13 and to call first thing in the morning. I hope you can find one, it's so cute!
Amanda thank you, hope you‘ll get one from gamestop too!
