Quoted from RyanStl:

My kids want a Switch, but it just looks way too much like the Wii we have had for 10 yrs. Same reason I didn't get a Wii U. How many super smash bros, mario, mario carts can we buy?

Switch is HD, Wii wasn’t. It’ll be a whole new visual experience with those franchises for you and your kids. Switch is amazing - I’ve never played a system more or bought more games for a system. But if you want something more mainstream/realistic/4K - go with a PS4 Pro or Xbox One X or S.

As for Google Stadia? NEVER. Streaming games = NO F’ING WAY....and if you reeeeally want to try a game streaming service, Playstation has PS Now...if you don’t like it, at least you still have a functioning console.

Quoted from mystman12:

Yeah, Nintendo's online is horrible, so if that's important to someone then they should definitely look elsewhere,

I have over 600 hrs of Splatoon 2 online, and it’s been awesome. Also tons of online play with Mario Kart, ARMS, Tetris 99, Smash and others.

Smash was really choppy at first but lately has been much smoother. Not sure if Nintendo updated something?

Quoted from pinmister:

He wants Fortnite but is only 7 years old-not sure I want to introduce him to that?

Fortnite is free...and on Switch.

Well, free until he begs you to let him spend $$$ on costumes and dances and shit.

Quoted from RyanStl:

BTW, the kids aren't that stuck on the Switch. They mainly want to play Fortnite on a console and like the portable, but I'm not dealing with four kids fighting over a portable.

Get some extra Joy-Cons or Pro controllers and they can all play it in tabletop mode together.
