Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch, first announced in October 2016, is Nintendo's answer to the problem of big game portability. The Switch can not only be the go-to console for your big-screen living room needs, but it is easily "switch"-able to a portable you can walk around with.

How do you get a Nintendo switch for free?

Asked by Wiki User

You cannot unless someone gives it to you. You can always look for cheap deals on Cragslist, Ebay or Amazon. Even though DS devices are older they are still not free, but not as expensive as when they first came out.

Will the games for the Nintendo Switch be on discs?

Most likely not because in the Nintendo Switch Reveal Trailer, he puts cartridges in and I don't see a disc input either.

Will you be able to play Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon on the Nintendo Switch?

Asked by Wiki User

No. Pokemon GO is just for phones and tablets. Even though the console is more mobile than most, it really isn't designed for Pokemon GO.

Can I play Nintendo Switch games without the Internet?

User Avatar

Asked by Reece Hermann

Yes, but not every game can fully function without internet access. A game like Splatoon 2, for example, requires internet to function as it updates its playable maps every two hours. Something single-player, like Super Mario Odyssey, will definitely work without the internet, although you won't be able to play the "Luigi's Balloon World" multiplayer game.

Is the Nintendo switch worth it?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Absolutely, 100% yes. I bought my Nintendo Switch and copy of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Friday, Mar. 3, 2017—the day they both released—and it was one of the best weekends of my entire life. As a longtime fan of the series (I have a tattoo of Link from Skyward Sword), I had to get my hands on the newest title.

Breath of the Wild completely blew my mind, and has since solidified itself as one of my favorite games of all time. If you're a fan of the series, this newest one takes a lot of the tropes and aspects of the Zelda formula and mixes them up, focusing on exploration more than dungeons and puzzles. The feeling of "hey, what's that over there?" that the game relies on never gets stale and has kept my curiosity piqued every time I've opened the title in the past three years.

It took me several months to actually buy a second game for my Switch, just because I couldn't stop running around Hyrule and finding exciting, new stuff to interact with.

What games were in the Nintendo Switch announcement video?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is a list of each game that we can see in the video The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The only game that was known to come for the NX call before this announcement, so it's no surprise. Skyrim. The epic medieval RPG of Bethesda will have its version for Switch, in case you want something with more murders than Zelda. Mario Kart 8. From what we see in the video, it seems that the Wii U version of the Nintendo racing game will be ported to Switch. It is not sure what changes will be made. An unnamed Basketball game that is probably NBA 2K17. Super Mario. Switch is going to have what the Wii U never had. A new single-player Mario game in the Super Mario 64 style. Splatoon. In this case, it does not look like a porter of the paintball game of Nintendo Wii U, because the characters have customizable hair styles, which is not possible in the current version of Wii U. An update or a Sequel It's still not safe.

Is Nintendo switch worth buying?

User Avatar

Asked by Maymie Paucek

It depends on what you want to use it for. The Wii U can play all Wii games and can use Wii remotes. Also, it can play Wii U games and has new applications which the Wii does not have.

However, it cannot play GameCube Disks or use GameCube controllers. Also, the price for the Wii U is more expensive.

Is the Nintendo Switch replacing the 3DS?

User Avatar

Asked by Zanbabe

It really depends on what you are looking for. The Nintendo Switch is a brand new Nintendo system that has been released on March 3rd, 2017 with a few games at launch, including Zelda Breath of the Wild. Though it is still really early in its life, there are a lot of new games announced for it including Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Splatoon 2, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Super Mario Odyssey. However these games are not yet released so you will have to wait for a bit before playing these games.

On the other hand, the Wii U has been discontinued and Zelda Breath of the Wild is likely the last game Nintendo will be developing for the Wii U. There are already a lot of good titles including, 3D World, New Super Mario Bros U, Mario Maker, Mario Kart 8, HD Zeldas, Pikmin, Smash Bros, Splatoon, Xenoblade X, Yoshi, Kirby and others. So if these games are interesting enough, it may be worth getting a Wii U for.

What games would you recommend for the Nintendo Switch?

User Avatar

Asked by Orval Kuphal

There are a plethora of games I would recommend, but before getting into the ones that are exclusive to the Nintendo Switch, I’d like to mention the vast amount of indie and retro games available on the hybrid console. I really fell in love with the independent platformer Celeste due to its availability on the Switch, and being able to play NES and SNES titles on the go is a major win for me!

But what about the Nintendo games? If you are a fan of adventure, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is truly a unique experience, departing from the formula that fans had come to expect of the series. I bought my Switch with this game the day they both released, and I still find myself logging in to explore Hyrule today! The exploration, combat, and world-building gave me a sense of awe I hadn’t felt since I was a six-year-old first exploring the polygonal version of Hyrule in Ocarina of Time.

For platformers, I’d recommend Super Mario Odyssey. This, to me, is the most polished and mechanically tight game that is made exclusively for the Switch. The way you can use so many different types of moves to traverse the beautiful and diverse levels is really something else, and the deep moveset Mario sports this time around means you can really challenge yourself in the endgame. It takes the style of 3D Mario games that you’ve come to expect, and adds an extremely satisfying twist on that, making for an experience both veteran players and those new to the series can enjoy.

If you’re more into shooters, Splatoon 2 has scratched an itch I never even knew I had. I’m traditionally not a fan of FPS-type games (granted, the Splatoon series is from a third-person camera perspective), but the childish tone of the game paired with its unbelievably catchy soundtrack has created an addiction in me. I will say, though, that if you are considering buying this game, you should know that the developers have slowed down adding updates to the game. Unfortunately, this means that your opportunity to engage in “Splatfests” (incredibly fun limited-time events) has passed.

Lastly, I’d recommend Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to almost everybody. This is a game you can play with friends or family, casual or competitive, and still have an absolute blast! Including every character from the series was such a cool move by the developers, making this definitely the “ultimate” entry in the Super Smash Bros. series!

If you can’t tell, I really love this console. To me, games are at their best when there is a social component readily available. I love bringing it to family gatherings for some quality Super Mario Party or 1-2 Switch action. I’ve even played Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with other passengers on a flight who I just happened to see with their own Switch! For anybody who even remotely enjoys playing games, the Nintendo Switch is a must-have.

How to record gameplay on the Nintendo Switch Lite?

User Avatar

Asked by Derick Treutel

Do you have a video recorder or a capture card? They will be helpful. For screen capture software, I recommend Joyoshare Screen Recorder. It can capture gameplay on PS3, Xbox 360, Nintendo, etc. in high quality. For the capture card, I recommend Elgato, which is powerful and easy-to-use.

Why do Nintendo games never go on sale?

User Avatar

Asked by Virginia Bradtke

The answer to this question is relatively simple: Nintendo is home to some of the most successful franchises in video game history, including Pokémon, Super Mario Bros., and The Legend of Zelda. Because these IPs are owned by Nintendo, their exclusivity on Nintendo devices means that there is barely any competition in the market. If you want to play the newest Pokémon or The Legend of Zelda games, your only legal option is to buy a Switch, because those games will not be available on other platforms. Because of these factors, Nintendo tends to keep their exclusive titles at the original MSRP for long periods of time.

Should I get Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or Splatoon 2?

User Avatar

Asked by Leone Cormier

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is easier to play with friends and you can brag when you win to your friends, but it can get boring after a while. In my opinion you should get Splatoon. You can buy clothing, do the Octo Expansion, and play as Agent 8 with one of the quid sisters Marie. You can also play with friends but its harder to join friends you would have to let them know its joining or you would have to join their game the second that they join. You can get money pretty easily too. Hope this helped. :)
