Nintendo Switch

Nintendo Switch is a video game console developed by Nintendo and released worldwide in most regions on March 3, 2017. It was the middle of the 8th generation of home consoles and succeeded the Wii U. It competes with Microsoft’s Xbox One and Sony’s PlayStation 4; it is also competing with the 9th generation consoles Microsoft’ Xbox Series X/ S and Sony’ PlayStation 5. Nintendo’s goal in designing the Switch was to bridge the divide in the gaming market, creating a console that could play “leisurely” video games as well as games that are meant to be “deeply” played. The “Switch” name was chosen not just to refer to the Switch’s ability to switch between handheld and home console modes but to present “the idea that it will be a ‘switch’ that will change the way people enjoy entertainment in their everyday lives”.
