Anyone here got a Switch? If so how are you enjoying yours and what games do you have for it?

I have one and am enjoying mine immensely, I have Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Disgaea 5, Fate Extella, and Sonic Mania. I've gotta say even for a system with mostly ports it's really nice to have them on the go and that to me is the main appeal to the Switch. Anyone else got one and if so what games have you bought for it and how are you liking it?

I spent 4 months trying to get one (and to be honest, it was gonna pretty much be a Zelda machine for quite some time). Everyone was always out by the time I got there.

Gave up, bought a PS4 on Prime Day instead. Plan on getting the Switch in December as a family Christmas gift, though. Should be a larger game library by then, as well.

And mini-unblock hasn't said "are we there yet" once.

Don't know what games he's got, but the damn thing's awesome in my book

Plus there's stuff like Crash Bandicoot Insane Trilogy and Uncharted as well.

As for the Switch there's stuff like a new Mario title on the way along with Metroid, Xenoblade, among others so while it has some good ports it hasn't quite filled out it's library yet so waiting was probably a pretty good choice.

My PS4 came with Uncharted 4 (I played/own the previous 3 on my PS3, and this one didn't disappoint) and Last Of Us Remastered (which was one of my absolute favorite games on the PS3). I also grabbed Arkham Knight (incredible game), Star Wars: Battlefront (meh), The Order 1886 (haven't played it yet) and Mass Effect: Andromeda (which I'm currently playing.

I haven't picked up the KH games for PS4, as I have I, II, and R:CoM on PS2, plus the 1.5 and 2.5 HD Remasters for PS3. Impatiently awaiting KH3.

I'm looking forward to the new Mario and Xenoblade for the Switch. I played the first Xenoblade on Wii and fell in love with it. Gonna be a fun Christmas.
