It has been a year since the release of the Nintendo Switch - it appeared in retail on March 3, 2017. Sales at the console are excellent, there are enough good games - everything needs to be summarized somehow. We found out who in the DTF editorial office took the Switch and asked them to share their thoughts: what you can play and whether the purchase was repulsed by emotions.
If you have something to tell - welcome to the comments.

Oleg Chimde: the third platform in a row
I've had a sad story with Switch so far. I rode a bit in Mario Kart 8, ran The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, getting damn tired in the process, went through an excellent Super Mario Odyssey with my niece and ... everything. Since the end of December, the console has been collecting dust next to the PlayStation 3 in languid anticipation of Pokémon, SMT and Fire Emblem.
Most likely, the matter is in the type of consumption.
I don’t go to work by public transport, but work from home, which means Switch as a portable device is not very relevant for me. In indies that are now massively coming to Switch, I play either on PC or on PS4. So in my personal list of gaming platforms, the Nintendo console is in my third place.
However, I don't regret the purchase, of course: Mario alone paid for the Switch in full for me. In the meantime, let it lie down, the tea will not spoil.
Zakhar Bocharov: credited, you have been rehabilitated
As a Nintendo fan, it was very painful for me to watch Wii U. Two and a half games a year, E3 conferences with depressing announcements compared to competitors, the endless need to endure the imperfections of hardware in order to be able to play my favorite series. And some of them held up decently (Super Smash Bros., Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Pikmin 3), while others were tough in quality (Xenoblade Chronicles X, Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival, Paper Mario: Color Splash).
It became obvious: Nintendo is gradually recognizing the failure of stationary hardware and is preparing a replacement. There is an unplanned change. We must be patient.
Switch caused a storm of doubts - power, form factor, original library of games. But the twelve months that have passed since the start have smashed all skepticism to smithereens. 2017 was a huge comeback year for Nintendo, and my jubilation was boundless.
I got a console in the summer and still have never thought about what to play. The luxurious The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey have been completed, a lot of games are still on the line - Splatoon 2, Mario and Rabbids, Skyrim, Xenoblade 2. The question is rather how to find the time.
Of course, not only new items are on the list, but Switch is a surprisingly pleasant piece of iron for catching up. The same The Elder Scrolls V on the small screen looks very neat, although in the regular version of seven years ago it still got tired.
I don't want to play Darkest Dungeon, Enter the Gungeon, or Celeste on the big screen (I don't have a Vita) - but the half-hour night runs are a hit. The hybrid set-top box format seemed wild to me, but in fact it became an innovation that worked. Very often I catch myself thinking that I will buy a particular game if it comes out on Switch.
Nintendo no longer needs to be scattered between several platforms (3DS is already objectively getting crumbs from the master's table), so the most delicious - exclusives - began to appear much more often. In addition to the mentioned "Mario" and "Zelda" - look at their ratings! — Splatoon 2, Arms, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Xenoblade 2 were released in the first year. This is a powerful start, and full releases of Fire Emblem and Pokemon, Kirby Star Allies, Bayonetta 3 and Super Smash Bros. are coming soon. Even in terms of the number of titles, this is very inspiring.
I don't want to be a 100% fanboy: the console has its downsides. It does not work without recharging, and due to its power, there is almost no actual multiplatform.
As a replacement for a stationary console, the Switch will only work for undemanding players. But as a second set-top box, especially a portable one, it's almost perfect. Definitely the best purchase last year, with a pleasant, forgotten feeling as a bonus. The feeling that you can be proud of your favorite company again, and more and more people are imbued with its philosophy. On the day I bought Super Mario Odyssey, I canceled everything and, like a child, hurried home to play a new platformer - isn't this the lost magic of childhood?

Sergey Matveev: instead of a bedtime story
Nintendo Switch and I got used to each other for a long time. The easiest way to compare this is with relationships. Sounds ridiculous, but judge for yourself.
At first there was a period of excitement and joy from owning a new console, I tried to spend every free minute with it. Then there was a sharp decline in interest, a period of insidious betrayals, when I preferred to go through the new releases of the season on PC, while Switch was lonely gathering dust on the shelf.
And now I come home from work every day and in the evening, tired, I fall into a chair with Switch in my hands. No previous passion, but calm and spiritual pleasure from the game. Only if in a relationship it all takes decades, it only took me a year.
Approximately for the entire period of adaptation, my passage of the new Zelda also stretched. I finished it just a week ago, some moments and mechanics were not weakly annoying, other situations and missions were delightful and blew the roof off. I have a fad: if you already pass the game, then you should squeeze all the juice out of it. Consequently, I went through all the sanctuaries, closed all additional tasks, collected all the photos for the Hyrule atlas, and pumped all the armor to the maximum. As a result, after a hundred hours - the penetration into the castle, the battle with Ganon, the credits and the smile of Zelda. I exhaled with peace of mind, for me it was more of a gestalt that needs to be closed.
Little indie games gave me a little more vivid emotions.
A year ago, I advocated bringing more indie “with soul” to the Switch, because a portable console is not only about trying to play in a cramped subway or a shaking bus. A portable device, both physically and mentally, is much closer to the player than a monitor or TV, so you immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the game much faster and stronger with it. I replayed Switch Oxenfree, Detention and Night in the Woods - the sensations and emotions are much brighter, as if the characters themselves have become closer and dearer.
Therefore, today for me, Nintendo Switch is not so much a set-top box of exclusives as a great platform for soulful indie games, emotional stories. And to get these true emotions, I'm even ready to overpay.
Nikita Losev: wrong format
I've never been a fan of Nintendo, so my relationship with the Switch is not easy. Before that, I didn’t have a single “big N” console - not that it was a conscious desire, I just didn’t join.
Switch, in the end, I bought only at the end of November, almost nine months after the release of the device. Like many, I was primarily attracted to Zelda and Mario (even two at once, since I also bought Mario Kart 8 Deluxe at the same time), so in the end the desire overcame all doubts.
Three months later, I don't regret my purchase. I’m still slowly going through Breath of the Wild (very little left), barely touched Super Mario Odyssey and traveled a bit in Karting. At the same time, like some of the colleagues who unsubscribed above, Switch closes my list of gaming platforms, and for good reason.
Home - I'm an avid PC player, and although I can turn a blind eye to some of the shortcomings of other devices for the sake of exclusives, sometimes habits still make themselves felt. It’s easier and more convenient for me to run something on Steam (it’s not for nothing that I bought my video card) or turn on some kind of session. On Switch, the choice of all this is too limited, and the format is completely different.
The second reason, following from the previous one, is that I don't play indies on the Switch, and they are most often uninteresting to me in this form. Yes, I've bought a few discounted games, so there's always something to play when I'm on the road. But, with the exception of the main exclusives and, in part, the two parts of Bayonetta, something else does not attract me much.
In addition, I repeat after Oleg, I don't need to travel often, so the portability of the console is nice though (you can play in bed), but I personally don't need it. It's funny that initially I considered Switch first of all as a portable device, and only then - as a home device. As a result, more often than not, I play behind a monitor and even bought a Pro controller for this.
By the way, it deserves a special mention - you no longer need to suffer with Joy-Con controllers, constantly using the console in the docking station. The gamepad turned out to be functional and convenient, and the battery life on a single charge is several times longer than that of the DualShock 4.
The only negative is the price, but the pros, in my opinion, are still more important.
After three months of use, my Switch has remained in perfect condition. There were no scratches on the screen, problems with controllers or other troubles. Although the battery does drain incredibly quickly, so you should always keep this in mind.
In general, if you are interested in Nintendo games, then Switch is worth taking without hesitation. My only problem is that I'm used to the PC, and I rarely launch consoles - the PlayStation 4 Pro is also gathering dust in the corner, and the list of console exclusives that have not been completed is constantly growing. But as an additional gaming device that can also be taken on the road, the Switch is ideal.
Artyom Slobodchikov: the ideal companion
I bought the Switch almost by accident. I have long wanted to buy some kind of console, but the money was only for it - there was not enough money for a TV or a good monitor.
Why buy a PS4 Pro if you don't have a good screen to enjoy the beauty of Horizon Zero Dawn? Then I thought about Switch: Zelda with high ratings and cool gameplay, the upcoming Mario Odyssey, which then - in September - had not yet been released. Why not.
Unlike Oleg and Nikita, I need to move around the city every day: from home to work, then to study at the magistracy. In this context, Switch became a little “brain explosion” for me: here, in my backpack, there are several full-fledged AAA games, and I can play them right on the subway or train. The only problem is that in the crowd it is not always convenient to get the console out of the case.

In addition, Switch is very good at co-op. 1-2 Switch is the perfect party game, and in Overcooked we often play with a girl who is far from video games at all. By the way, I recommend Overcooked to everyone in general, it is very coolly done.
I've heard about the Switch's technical issues, which are causing some to wait for the next revision of the device, but I haven't encountered any myself: the controllers are in perfect order, the docking station hasn't scratched anything, the battery lasts long enough.
In a word, I’m happy with everything and I’m waiting for Dark Souls and Pillars of Eternity 2 to come out on Switch.

Ubisoft squeezes sweat and money - Just Dance 2021 review
While EA Sports is churning out sports sims, Ubisoft continues to re-release the premier digital console-based house party attraction, Just Dance. The new version of the rhythm game turned out to be bright, dynamic and really exciting... that is, absolutely the same as the previous part of the series. We explain why you should think carefully before buying Just Dance 2021.
The Just Dance series started back in 2009 and has attracted a huge audience even outside of arcade clubs and Dance Dance Revolution. The main reason for the success of the franchise was the simplicity of the gameplay, which the name itself hints at - “Just Dance”, which everyone can handle in one way or another. In general, everything is so, but it’s still worth explaining what the game is.
Dancing is my element
As you might guess, the essence of Just Dance is in dancing, or rather, in trying to repeat the most diverse steps behind the dancers on the screen. The system tracks movements using a camera or device in the player's hand and awards points for accuracy. The gameplay formula is extremely simple, but it is quite addictive if you find the right tracks, the company and the strength to get up from the couch.
You can use an ordinary smartphone with a gyroscope as a "gamepad" in Just Dance - no additional accessories are required here, although the developers could have gone this way. Of course, in this case, in order to get high marks in the game, it is enough just to move one hand, but in the process, you still involuntarily begin to dance with the rest of the body.
Just Dance looks especially organic on the Nintendo Switch, which seems to have been created for home entertainment in a small company. With this console, you don’t even need a smartphone to play - basic Joy-Cons will be enough.
In addition to the precise gyroscope, these controllers are equipped with special straps: believe me, even if your palms never sweat, launching a gamepad or smartphone directly into the TV while dancing is very, very simple.
Due to the overall simplicity of the gameplay, as well as a great combination of music, games and simple activities, Just Dance is suitable for almost everyone. In addition to the standard mode, there is a fitness interface that counts calories burned instead of points for accurate dance performance, as well as a children's section with simple movements, cartoon style and cartoon songs. This series does not need more - it would seem.
Only dancing and you
All of the above applies to Just Dance 2021 - and it's cool. The series has been consistently entertaining high-profile companies for more than ten years, making those who want to lose weight effortlessly sweat and trying to diversify E3 with mass dances. But there is one problem, or rather, there are already at least three of them - starting from version 2019The franchise hasn't changed much in years.
It is clear that dancing in a playful way, and even with the slogan "Just dance", is difficult to diversify, but even a new interface would be very useful. I was extremely disappointed when I redeemed my Ubisoft key, loaded the game, skipped the colorful splash screen, and returned to Just Dance 2019.
The only interesting new feature is the Quick Play feature available on the game's main screen. Thanks to her, you can not delve into a huge library of songs and playlists, but simply dance to a randomly selected song, but this works until the first inappropriate track. It would be great if the game immediately offered options from five different selections and did not rush the user with a ten-second countdown.
In this regard, the comparison with EA Sports simulators is the most accurate. Year after year, Just Dance fans get the same game - FIFA fans at least try to improve the physics of the ball and give digital football players a human look. But Just Dance could well have simple rhythm games in the Mario Party format, a Dance Dance Revolution-style mode with a special carpet as an additional accessory, or even creative modes with the ability to independently select movements, at least for children's songs.
There are a lot of options, use Ubisoft.
And the music makes you crazy
As a result, when buying Just Dance 2021, owners of at least one previous game in the series pay ₽3,990 for 40 new songs and a month of Unlimited subscription, which gives access to an expanded music library. Given that the same amount can pay for more than two years of subscription in the previous version of Just Dance, the offer is at least not very profitable. Unless someone urgently needed a couple of songs by Billy Eilish, BLACKPINK or The Weeknd right here and now.
The Just Dance 2021 basic tracks list does have a few popular songs, but in most cases they either sound too monotonous or not suitable for dancing at all - at least not in the format of the game. For example, in this part of the series there are two versions of Without Me by Eminem at once, but in both cases you want to listen more than dance.
I'm not the biggest fan of dancing, so I was helped to test Just Dance 2021 by a small company, the female half of which knows almost the entire Ultimate library by heart.
Even for them, there were only a few interesting options in the new selection of tracks - let alone the male part: we quickly became disillusioned with dancing to Eminem and returned to the cult Dragostea Din Tei from O-Zone, The Bremen Town Musicians and The Sun in Hands.
Going back to the FIFA parallel, Just Dance 2020 just had a little roster update. At the same time, Ubisoft updates the Ultimate library quite often, including tracks from the latest installments. Under such conditions, the entire series should have switched to a shareware model with a subscription a long time ago, because the new annual versions make less and less sense.
No more parties
It's quite possible that Just Dance is heading towards the game-service format. It currently has three free tracks that are technically an Ultimate subscription. By the way, recently they included a new song from the virtual band K/DA from League of Legends. Ubisoft could expand this collection to the same 40 songs, and give the rest only for money.
