Nintendo is a Japanese Multinational company and one of the world’s largest video game companies by revenue. It started out as a card company in 1889 but has since grown to be a household name in many countries of the world. The introduction of its first gaming system, Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1985, saw a huge success with more than 60 million units in sales. This saw the entrance of popular games including The Legend of Zelda, Pokémon, and Mario into many homes. Nintendo went ahead to make other successful innovations in gaming including the Game Boy, Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), Wii, and the most recent, Nintendo Switch.

The Nintendo Switch is a box of goodness every gamer longs for.

With a pair of gray Joy-Con controllers, two players can play the same game while the Nintendo Switch sits in its dock. It doesn’t even end there. Up to 8 players can play the same game at the same time on one Nintendo Switch system!

The Nintendo Switch comes with a pair of wrist straps and another pair of grips for the 2 Joy-Con controllers. The wrist straps provide a firm, convenient, and safe grip on the Joy-Cons. The risk of the controllers slipping out of your grip in the middle of an ongoing game is thus eliminated.

It also features the amazing option of sharing your screen with other players, making for a bigger gaming circle. To achieve this, an HDMI cable is included in the bundle to connect the console to a television.
