Feb 4, 2018It's Minecraft. On the Switch. If you like Minecraft, you'll like this. I used to play the pocket edition, but every time my phone got reset, I lost all my work. Now I have the switch version, no need to worry any more.

Jul 3, 2017I had so much fun with the Game. In local multiplayer or even alone on the go, it's still so much fun creating your worlds and exploring caves and dungeons. Event without mods, it's one of the best versions except the pc version.
10 points with mod support. -

Sep 22, 2017I pretty much knew what to expect from this game when I bought it but I figured I would at least give it a try even though I already had the pc version. It definitely doesn't beat the pc but it is so much better than the pocket edition featured on phones. I was so happy with the controls and it is such a chill game that you can still talk to someone while playing

Jul 18, 2017Una adaptación del gran juego que es minecraft. No añade gran cosa, pero su jugabilidad en switch es excelente. Está bien que añada el pack de super mario. No tiene nada que destacar que no tengan las versiones de las otras consolas

Nov 21, 2017This game is great. We all know that. Whats remarkable is that they managed to make a decent switch version of it. Its not the best port but in the end i am happy that this is available for all switch players.

May 22, 2017This game is amazing!
The idea for an HD portable Minecraft is great!
Maybe it might not be compared to its other counterparts, but hey, the game on the Switch is awesome and you should try it out!! -
Jun 25, 2017A classic brought to the Switch. I first had the chance to purchase Minecraft while it was in its Alpha seven years ago. I bought the Switch for my nephew and I decided to buy one for myself. A definite NEED if you have the Switch

Apr 22, 2019though there is a bad seed with lots of bugs i got a new world started with no bugs so discounting the bad seed a very good game that is worth the money
-
Nov 3, 2019The game sets its own standard. Nothing more to say. The switch adaption is perfect.

Mar 25, 2020Minecraft is very cool on Nintendo Switch, also with crossplay and achievements on Xbox Live! It has dedicated servers, it has good graphics and few FPS drops. You can also download the graphics so that it consumes less battery.
-
May 19, 2020It's the classic Minecraft andI like It!
Only 9 points because you can not add other Servers and onlycan play the offical Servers.... -

May 14, 2017I Havent touched Minecraft in a few years and always played it on PC. Ive just played it in the hotel on the bus , on the plane and now ive popped it into my 40 inch tv and can see my creations blown up and fully realized. Im not a massive fan of Nintendo but they have smashed it out of the ballpark with this machine. Its perfect for MInecraft.

Dec 8, 2018Two words: Better together.
Pretty solid version of Minecraft, already played it for 60 hours in a few weeks. -
Dec 26, 2017Minecraft is a good multiplayer game to play with the family. At first I was disappointed with the 720p resolution when docked, but this has been fixed. This game has one of the highest hours played across everyone in my household.

Apr 29, 2023Wow such a great port. More games need to emulate the crafting system, it works better than any other survival system on console!
-
Feb 16, 2021The Minecraft store barely works a quarter of the time, and the game takes for frigging ever to sign you in to Microsoft and load your character skins. Step it up.
-
Sep 12, 2021This game on the Switch will suck you in for hours, with online play, local multiplayer, and solo play all being tons of fun, and having it on the Switch just means more places to play! However, the game can occasionally struggle with performance.
-
Nov 9, 2020Great game on any platform! The only bad thing about the Switch version is that you can't join your own rented servers..

May 25, 2020Minecraft is simply a masterpiece no matter how you play it. It's certainly worth your time if you want to purchase it on Nintendo Switch. The only minor issue is the framerate at times. You can notice a little choppiness when the world is generating.
-
Jun 2, 2021Pues es Minecraft, no tiene falla, me agrada que se actualice manteniendo la vida útil del juego por más tiempo, aunque algunos Mobs no son muy frecuentes y otros aparecen muy seguido quitándole algo de interés, pero en general es un muy buen juego

Jan 27, 2021Amazing how this game is still standing up to time - no one has taken it's model and done better. A true original that uses what's in our genetics in regards to wanting to create and build.
-
Apr 3, 2022Its a good port and it also works really great with the nitendo switch's controls! The game also has in-game achivements which is very smart!

What do you want me to say? It's Minecraft. On Switch. (And the map are no where near as small as the god forsaken Wii U version of the game) -
Jan 2, 2022Okay i will admit. I only play minecraft to build things and buildings. I never played on survival.
-
Dec 25, 2022This game is really good, I enjoyed it a lot. Just 1 step down from a nine because after 2 years it gets a little boring. Just a little.

Dec 13, 2022It's Minecraft, but the controls aren't so good in this version. And you have to flipping pay to play online. stupid. it's free on all the other versions.
-
Oct 14, 2022als je deze game niet kent voor het lezen van deze review dan ben je aan het liegen
de switch versie is zoals de rest met als bonus een Mario skin pack en een Mario themed wereld
je weet maar al te goed dat deze game iets voor jou heeft -
Nov 26, 2022Overall - 8/10
Difficulty - Medium
Platform - Nintendo Switch
Replay Value - 9/10
Gameplay - 7/10
Hours Played - 210 hrs
Extra Notes: Its portable Minecraft with some cons to the original: paying for multiplayer, no skin customization, etc. -
Jan 2, 2023Minecraft is so fun you can go in survive and get supplies and build a house and defend from monsters and mobs in creative you can use all the tools and build however you what and you can fly in creative
-
Jan 31, 2023Still very fun but runs super badly on the Nintendo switch. Multiplayer works just as well.

Apr 15, 2023Fun and endless entertainment if you’re creative enough. If not the online play can keep you entertained for awhile
-
May 6, 2023This is the best port for me. Play everywhere you want. It is better than on smart phone.
-
Jul 11, 2023The fact that you can play a portable version of Minecraft with control controls is great on its own, but that's all the game has over other versions.

Aug 6, 2023Very cool, the Super Mario Mashup is a fun little thing to have on top of your purchase. Also, not $40, only 20! As always, Minecraft is a 9/10. Only because the minigames are gone from the XBOX 360 and PS3 versions!

games(TM)Jul 7, 2017The game has a universal appeal, and its status as a modern classic is uncontested. This is just another block in its pedestal. [Issue#189, p.80]
-
Nintendo Force MagazineJun 23, 2017It's still Minecraft, and after all these years it's held up, especially when you can pop your Switch out of the dock and bring it wherever you want. [Issue #28 – July/August 2017, p. 17]

Jun 22, 2017Thanks to the Switch edition’s versatility, combined with the free and exclusive Super Mario mash-up pack, this is one of the best versions I could have started out with and is an ideal purchase for fans on-the-go and newcomers alike.
