Curious about diving into the world of Nintendo Switch? Wondering what you need to get the ball rolling? Let’s break it down, item by item.

So, you’ve got your eyes on a Nintendo Switch, or maybe you’ve just brought one home. The question on your mind is, “What do I need for the Nintendo Switch?” Let’s dive into the answer.

The Essentials for Your Nintendo Switch Adventure

At the heart of your Nintendo Switch setup is, of course, the console itself. But to unlock the full Nintendo experience, there are a few more items you’ll want to grab.

First off, you’ll need games to play. Nintendo’s iconic franchises like Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon are great starting points. Next, consider picking up an extra set of Joy-Con controllers or a Pro Controller for multiplayer action. Don’t forget a high-quality screen protector and a carrying case to keep your Switch safe on the go. Finally, an SD card will expand your storage for more games and screenshots.
