I don’t understand the Nintendo Switch. How many do I need for a family of gamers?
They are a personal device like a gameboy.
There is a TV version for party games.
The games may or may not be shareable, even with the physical games.
Assume the ideal usage is during screen time on a weekend.
I have been avoiding buying one as I don’t understand them. Thinking of getting them soon.
I assume one OLED for the family and then a portable per person, then one copy of each game per device.
Since it sounds like you are just getting into this, it may be helpful to know that Nintendo has confirmed that there will be a 2nd version of the device and it is likely to have full backwards compatibility (meaning it will play all of the games from version 1).
The release dates for this device are likely to be announced soon.
So if you can wait, you could either get the newest version or you could get the current version for a big discount.
