Switch

The Nintendo Switch, launched in 2017, is a hybrid console that can serve as a traditional home system plugged into a TV or as a portable handheld with its 6.2‑inch detachable Joy‑Con controllers. It runs on a custom NVIDIA Tegra X1 chip, delivering up to 720p in handheld mode and 1080p when docked, and it supports both physical cartridges and digital downloads via the Nintendo eShop. With a strong lineup of first‑party titles like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey and Animal Crossing: New Horizons, plus a growing library of indie and third‑party games, the Switch has become a versatile platform that appeals to both casual players and serious gamers.
