Nintendo Switch: Fortnite - Double Helix Bundle - Switch

In terms of pure bang-for-your-buck for a Switch bundle, the Double Helix set is probably the best there is. Getting a full skin set (character skin, back bling, glider and pickaxe) and 1000 V-Bucks (enough for a Battle Pass) on top of a Nintendo Switch should normally cost you somewhere in the vicinity of $350-$360, but all of this coming free with the system at MSRP makes for a solid deal, especially since Fortnite itself is free-to-play. As for the system itself, I'm a new Switch owner, and I've been enjoying myself a lot as of the last few days. I only really have three games to play on it as of now (Mega Man 11, Snipperclips Plus and, of course, Fortnite), but playing in handheld mode is surprisingly comfortable, and the controls are very responsive. The system UI is easy to navigate, and setup doesn't take any longer than a few minutes. I also have to say I quite like the signature "click!" sound playing anytime you attach the Joy-Cons to the system. Since this is a Fortnite bundle, it might also be good to talk about the game itself. The Switch version of Fortnite, as of this writing, is fully cross-platform compatible with all other versions of the game. In theory, this means you could be playing a match made up of Switch, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC and mobile players all at the same time. The game looks surprisingly good in handheld mode, seeming reasonably sharp and detailed on the small screen (though it doesn't hold quite up as well on a TV). Joy-Con controls are decent, but you'll likely want a Pro controller for better gameplay. Unfortunately, this is one of the less-competitive versions of Fortnite, running at a framerate of 30fps (compared to the 60fps of the PS4 and XBO editions), so don't expect to be pulling off too much in regards to high-level play. At the very least, from my playtime, the framerate holds steady at 30fps and doesn't dip much. So it's at least stable. If you're a fan of Fortnite and don't mind a more casual-oriented version of the game, just looking for a new game system and some neat in-game items, this is a great bundle to get. The Switch is a marvelous piece of technological engineering and having some free stuff to go with it is a great bonus.

The Nintendo Switch is one of the most amazing consoles I've ever played on. I bought the Fortnite bundle because I decided to give the digital code to my nephew who plays with me on Xbox. All I had to do is link his Xbox and Nintendo accounts and he had the Helix outfits on both consoles. He also decided to buy the battle pass with the included 1,000 V-bucks. I managed to find an old 64GB microsd card to use on my switch and it's actually holding up pretty good right now. I have Rocket League (with hot wheels DLC), Zelda BOTW (with expansion pass), Fortnite, Paladins, NES games, and Arena of Valor installed. I still have almost half of my SD card available. So depending on what games you want, you should have plenty of space with the 32gb it comes with if you're on a budget like me lol. The games are amazing, there's no doubt about that. However, my issues are with the lack of security I feel with the hardware. I've heard about so many problems with the dock scratching the switch, etc. I thought it wasn't a major problem. Day one and I'm already seeing pretty big scratches on the back. Luckily, I knew this might happen and got a glass screen protector as well as a "dockable" case. I tried to fit a dock sleeve on it as well but it was too snug so I think I'm going to send that back. All in all this is an awesome system but with the accessories needed , somewhat overpriced games, it can seem like a lot. I'll update if I have anymore problems. :) I think it's a little too early to tell about battery life... All I can say is , at least having battery life is even an option.

Muy buen equipo para niños súper recomendado

The package arrived and was not sealed. It appeared tampered with and the insert with the code and access to all the expensive add-ons I paid for was missing. When I contacted the company all they would say is "I'll look in the warehouse and get back to you. That was 3 days ago and I haven't heard a word since. This was a special gift for my granddaughter and now she does not have all the V-coins and special effects I wanted for her. I could have paid for just a Switch from Wal-Mart and downloaded Fortnite for free. It would have been cheaper and less frustrating but I wanted something "special" for my granddaughter! This is a terrible company to try and do business with.

This is a good starter pack if you don't already own a console and want to dip your toe in. There are a few drawbacks when you compare it to XBox or PS4 but you really can't beat it for the price. I had to buy a better controller to play Fortnite on it but you can get by with the ones that come with it in the beginning. I bought a cheap $99 tv at Walmart and got a $5 HDMI cable at Five Below and I can see it on a decent sized screen too. Very happy with my purchase.

How dumb can Nintendo get? people like cutting cords (even if its close to you) but Nintendo wants you to purchase Bluetooth separate. OLED would have been much better for the cost. I also hate that everything is cloud. I wanted to buy my nephew a game and its only online with credit card attached. Why not just let people but SD cards? I give up on Nintendo like they gave up on their last console. Save your money.

The double helix bundle code doesn’t work could you help me?

Purchased the Switch and my family loves it! The versatility and portability are fantastic. With 2 extra joy-cons, 4 people can play certain games at the same time (not Fortnite), and makes it a social device as well. The individual games can get a bit pricey, and the cartridges are hella tiny. My only sadness is that some of the games I grew to love on our Xbox are not available on the Switch (i.e. Roblox, The Sims).

I was hesitant at first being that the last nintendo console I bought was the N64, I didn't think I would enjoy the Switch..but honestly, it is so much fun! It really brings the joy out of your family and truly brings back memories to playing with yiur sublings and family like the retro days. Mario Kart, Super Smash, Zelda..just to name a few really bring this console to life along with it's portability! Be ready to fish out quite a bit of cash for extra accessories as they are not cheap to buy. Other than that..perfect console!

Lo que esperas, en lo personal la obtuve a muy buen precio, gracias a Amazon, algo que no me gusta es que te limiten a una consola por cuenta, pero eso no tiene que ver con el producto.

The best console I've ever owned in the last 8 years. Not playing Fortnite on it (it only has Battle Royale, not creative or PvE), but great game catalogue otherwise

Todo super bien lleno en tiempo y forma y fue a un excelente precio

Es lo que esperábamos de nintendo. Con los accesorios necesarios incluidos para pasar un buen rato.
