Not a huge gamer but I love things like Mario, Donkey Kong and board / puzzle games. Will I enjoy this?!

Possibly - we have one and I've played Pokemon, Kong, etc. I love how you can switch between playing it hand held and connecting it to the TV. But for me it doesn't compare to real console gaming or PC. Pretty impressive though and definitely fun!

Yes, I'd definitely say you'd enjoy it- lots of Mario and similar and plenty of good puzzle games on Switch. Go for it!

Yes you will love it. I'm currently trying to convince my son to put mario kart on his Santa list so I can play 🙈

Yes - my DS has one but my DH has enjoyed playing all his games in the evening.

Yes, it’s great! I would recommend Zelda, Breath of the Wild, it’s fantastic. Also, Mario Odyssey, Pikmin, and Super Mario Galaxy. I don’t like combat games, but I love all these.

I love Animal Crossing

WisestIsShe · 08/11/2020 19:28

It's fun but I find the remote unbelievably tiny and that spoils my enjoyment. Perhaps I just have gorilla hands ? Grin

My daughter has animal crossing. We love playing it together. Lots of adults enjoy it.

If you like the games then yes. Nintendo are second to none for breadth and quality of exclusives. Whereas a lot of stuff on PS or XBox is or will be on the other one or on PC.

Animal Crossing is my Zen escape from the stress of real life. Definitely recommend it. Ring Fit is decent too. I got Monopoly but haven't tried it yet.

Animal Crossing got me through the first Lockdown!
