    1. turn on dark mode.
    2. get screen protector & case.
    3. get a pro controller if you play dock mode a lot.
    4. watch reviews of games before buying a game.
    5. buy Nintendo online for a year, it isn’t that expensive.

    For anyone getting a Switch, I'd advise getting a screen protector as well. For a Nintendo console, the Switch is fairly delicate.

    • @DerTornado

      Yes, a screen protector is quite important. Otherwise the Switch dock scratches the Switch screen.

      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.

Not to mention, in times like these, games like Animal Crossing, Breath of the Wild, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate are fantastic titles you can sink your teeth into that offer hundreds upon hundreds of hours of enjoyment. Not saying it can't be done with Pokémon if you're a die hard fan, but for most people, I don't believe the game has quite the same replayabilty factor as the other titles.

    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.

    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.

    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)

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

    Good briefing of what the console is what it offers.

    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

    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 :)

      @@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.

    Lol I’ve never actually played any video games before but I’m just now suddenly becoming interested. Took me 24 years but I’m seriously thinking of trying out the Switch. I really hope I won’t suck at using it..😅

    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 💖

    Pro tip. Put you camera on a small table tripod and put that on a towel. Drag the towel on it’s edges and you get smooth panning and dolly movement.
