    I 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

    A great port, I really enjoy having Minecraft on the go.
    It's a bit of a shame that Nintendo does not officially offer Trophys / Achievements, but the game solves it well.
    Technically all is fine. World size is more than enough for exploring, the limited drawing distance for mobile is acceptable, as the game runs smoothly with 60 frames per second all the time. Local multiplayer is    A great port, I really enjoy having Minecraft on the go.

    Local multiplayer is a great addition, but of course that only makes sense on a TV, the Switch display is a bit small for it.

    If you don't have Minecraft yet or want a version for on the go: do grab it, it's a great port and deserves love.    … Expand

    Minecraft 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.

    Minecraft 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.

First things first, it's Minecraft,so you don't need to day the pros and cons,it's still your above average experience,with some improvements as well,like the textures,are more colorful and vivid,or the graphics,which are slightly better than PE. I found it a 'Challenge' while playing Battle Mode or Spleef. I only have two Joy-Cons,and that's why i defined it as a Challenge,because,yes i know that there is also a controller for the Joy-Con,but it didn't feel the same way i played them in the Wii U or Xbox One Edition. But at lest it's still fun and enjoyable to play. In the end,Minecraft Nintendo Switch Edition is a mix of improved graphics and textures,the challenging thrills of Battle Mode and Spleef and the delightful potentials of the Nintendo Switch that,combined,make it a better version than Wii U and Pocket Edition,but still not an improvement over its counterparts,such as Xbox One and PS4.… Expand

Concluindo, Minecraft é um bom jogo para se jogar online, mas não consegue ser tão interessante no single player, como um rdr2 ou um gta5!… Expand

    Minecraft on the PC is way better. This version isn't too bad - but the multiplayer can be weird when it comes to local vs online connecting. While a bit buggy at times it can be frustrating to get everything settled again. Often times the second player controller glitches out and will not re-calibrate and requires a reload of the game. But all in all it's a good game to play with the kid.

    This Switch version Minecraft is a pale wish copy of the famous best-selling video game on the planet. Freezes and bugs to all go, not to mention the accessibility of this title with The Nintendo Switch Online + A Microsoft account, with an interface as if I opened a virus ... But Minecraft remains and will remain a safe bet for always!!!

    While I would call the PC version to be the definitive version. The Switch version is not bad. Unfortunately until you can sustain yourself with things like food, diamonds and redstone "contraptions" the game isn't great, but stick with it and you won't be disappointed.

    I don’t recommend getting the switch edition for Minecraft bedrock. Poor frame rate, lags almost all the time (even in minecraft servers, and the tittle screen… THE TITLE SCREEN), bad render distance, bad loading time, and bad shadows. The lag and frame rate was so bad that I have to put every setting to low so it wouldn’t make my game lag.

My game regularly freezes, crashes, erases my save progress, randomly deletes my saved skins, etc. I've also yet to have one raid or any kind of event happen without a glitch preventing them from being completed. I've also run in to so so many bugs, regularly being unable to collect XP, with it just floating behind me until I restart the console. These bugs happen, without fail, every time I play.

    Also, the reason I advise avoiding if your switch is older is the joycons - after several years of use, my joycons absolutely do not click into place like they did when new. This means they slide out with minimal effort. The way minecraft controls forces your hands to almost constantly being pushing the joycons out of place - for me, this happens at least 10 times per play session, and every single time it freezes the game.

    All these factors make the game way more frustrating to play then fun and make me wish I just had never bought it at all. This version is not worth it.    … Expand

    Minecraft normally would be a 10/10 for me but this port is so lazy that the framerate will drop to unplayable if you moderately change your world.

    Forget about making a big world. Forget about buying cool Minecraft mods like Star Wars (it won't work). Double forget split screen multiplayer. This game simply does not function!

    How could the lazy developers at Mojang not port a low bit pixel game that was made by Notch from 13 years ago on a Nintendo Switch and have it run properly? If I was the chief at Mojang, I would fire anyone who worked on the Switch port. It is an embarrassment on the video game industry.

    This switch port should be recalled and Mojang should apologize. Do not buy it!
