Looking for a new gaming console? Here’s why the Nintendo Switch might work for you.
Gamers are always looking for the next platform. Have you thought about the Nintendo Switch?
Handheld devices like the Game Boy or the PSP or PS Vita had some success, but none of them hold as much ground as the Nintendo Switch.
The Nintendo Switch puts console-level gaming in the hands of players everywhere. It’s mobile, accessible, and powerful, and you can share to a home TV system to get that console feel. And you can access a vast selection of games including Legends of Zelda, Fortnite, Mortal Kombat 11. Even Skyrim made it a must-have option.
The Switch can be used by two players when you split the gamepad into two smaller controllers. This is perfect for fighting games such as Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter. On its own, it can run the more powerful adventure or role-playing games once limited to bulky consoles. Imagine playing Skyrim while lying in bed. RPG heaven!
Gaming companies and titles are now finding ways to add their games to the Nintendo Switch library. These games were announced at the recently concluded E3.
1. Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
