Is the Nintendo Switch worth buying?
That depends on the sort of gaming you’re planning on doing.
The Switch is aimed at children, families and commuters as well as your traditional gamers.
The console is great for group fun if you’re playing Mario Kart or one of the many other popular titles, plus it’s the only console you’ll be able to play the likes of Pokemon and Super Smash Bros on.
‘Serious’ gamers who play fast-twitch shooters and racing simulators will want to stick to the Xbox One, PS4 or PC though.
What’s the cheapest price for the Nintendo Switch?
We reckon a good price for the Nintendo Switch is £279 at the tail end of 2019.
If you see a console for less than that, you’re probably onto a good deal.
Can you watch movies on the Nintendo Switch?
The video streaming options on Nintendo Switch are a bit limited compared to the PS4 and Xbox One, but you can sync your Google Play and iTunes accounts to your Switch to watch your purchased movies.
How much is the Nintendo Switch Lite?
The Nintendo Switch Lite is usually available for under £200.
We’ll be adding the best offers we see to this page, so check back in if you want to find the best offers.
