About Nintendo Switch
The Switch works as both a handheld and a television console, a combination that rescued Nintendo after the commercial failure of the Wii U. It is among the best-selling consoles ever made. Its predecessor sold barely a tenth as many units, and the company's recovery from that failure is one of the sharper reversals in consumer electronics.
