Hey all - sorry if these questions are very basic. I have absolutely zero console experience. I want to buy one Switch OLED for my 2 boys, for a roadtrip. The idea would be to use the desktop mode so they can play together, and also gets them the option to play single-player games one at a time.
Questions:
- Do I need to buy more controllers? Are the 2 included enough for most 2-player games?
- Can the OLED be charged in desktop mode? I read that the V1 cannot because the USB port is on the bottom edge.
- What games are fun for 10-14 year olds that don’t play Call of Duty and that sort? Is the included Mario Kart okay, or should I get some particular game bundle?
Zelda: do you know if the game can have two player profiles, so the boys have each their own adventure?
Yeah, you can add many profiles to the Switch and each game gets its own save per profile — the only exception to this I know of is Animal Crossing, where each profile has their own character but each Switch has 1 island shared among all profiles
That sounds great. May I ask you one more question: I’ve seen some things come with a 3 or 12 month online subscription; what is that for?
NSO is required for online multiplayer for things like Splatoon or Minecraft.
(Btw Minecraft is pretty terrible on switch, just don’t)
