I'm just have to tell you that it's well known that Switch's games are generally more expensive and ports perform worse than Playstation and PC games. Even the 2nd hand games are still expensive compared to Playstation's.

Nintendo fans buy Switch for mostly first party exclusives and Square Enix games (some timed exclusives like OctoPath Traveller and the coming Triangle Strategy). We don't buy it to play Witcher. Witcher is just a nice to have. Nobody cares.

As above.

I throughly recommed you get at least 1 Nintendo original Pro controllers. It's really good and you will want to play it with BOTW.
If you like some retro games, can get an 8bitDo controller that styled like MegaDrive/Genesis controller. Perfect for Street Fighter.

Like i said earlier, Switch Sports is coming soon this year, you can watch the latest Nintendo Direct on Youtube.

So joyconn gives you 2 controllers. Buy 1 Nintendo Pro Controller. Buy 1 8bitDo or Mayflash adapter for all the other controllers you have lying in the house.

This will gives you 4 controllers already.

Says you. I own Switch Witcher and spent 170 hours on that game. I am primary a handheld gamer more than console so I never have experience any of the PS3 & Xbox 360 era games. So right now I own quite a lot of those gen ports.

I have already completed Witcher Eons ago on Steam. Not gonna buy these on Switch when Steam cheaper or EPIC gives free.

What I can gather so far is...

- The controllers that come attached to the Switch OLED are actually already 2 joyconn controllers that can be used independently.
- Adding 1 Nintendo Pro Controller makes it 3 in total (which should be enough for my purposes.

As for games, is it better to buy digitally or physical?

Too bad that octopath is disjointed in terms of story telling, triangle strategy looks more competent judging from the demo though

If you are not planning to sell then just buy digital games as they are way cheaper than physical games, especially during sales.

Don't really care about the story. The battle system in OctoPath is so farking brilliant. There is so many way to mix and match the skills. I played this with my son and he has found techniques i didn't thought of. Brilliant JRPG.

I already experienced the battle system in bravely default and the sequels, so the freshness didn't come for me, really easy to exploit.

Ok, then settle jor controller. But honestly, joyconn sucks. I hate it. kecian the person kena bashed later using joyconn when another guy using Pro Controller...unfair advantage...LOL

For me, if those multiplayer games you will always play like SmashBros, Mario Kart, example, buy Digital. For those RPGs or once completed you will never play again (or unlikely to play), buy physical so can resell later. Nintendo games got high RV unlike PS games which turns dirt cheap fast.

I don't intend to resell anything so from what I hear, digital is the way to go.
So get the Switch and controllers.
Setup at home and create account (I'm guessing).
Update payment information and start buying games from Digital Store.
Download and start playing.

Got a rough idea now.

Oh...forgot...must big the biggest microSD card you can find. Especially if you are fully Digital. Nothing less than 500GB. Preferably 1TB. I use 200GB myself. Mixture of physical and digital.

I had thought the Switch would have come with internal storage. Thanks for the tip.
I'll probably grab a 512GB or 1TB micro SD. Any micro SD would do and doesn't need to be a Nintendo specific one right?

Ah, thank you for the input.
For the controllers, do you recommend the controller like the PS version or the joycons? Total newbie here.

Also I remember having fun on the Wii before. Sports available on the Switch?
