. So my question (er questions) are... 1. How durable is the Switch in handheld mode? and 2. Where can I get one cheap? (I don't want to get the handheld only because I want to keep hooking it up to something else an option). 3. Any games you'd recommend for a guy who once loved playing Pokemon? The important thing is to engage his brain but I think the more fun it is the more likely it is he'll keep doing it.

1. Very (buy an ergonomic hand-held dock, because it's not comfy without that)

2. Offerup

3. Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, Mario Odyssey are the best of the best games on the system. I heard Pokémon Lengends Arceus is good.

Nintendo made me a lifelong video game addict. But at least gaming has some benefits (assuming you don't lose all your quarters to high prices and micro transactions). It helps with cognition and memory and has even been a benefit for surgeons and those in other professions. And has been showing a lot of promise in helping mental decline in patients with dementia.... which brings me to a question for those of you that have a Nintendo Switch....

Most of y'all know our struggles with the other half's health and lately I've been giving a lot of thought to getting him a Nintendo Switch to help improve his cognition and memory. (Seriously, 30 mins a day for two weeks showed gains for older people with dementia so working from that idea, I looked it up for hepatic encephalopathy and studies show that it would help with that). So my question (er questions) are... 1. How durable is the Switch in handheld mode? and 2. Where can I get one cheap? (I don't want to get the handheld only because I want to keep hooking it up to something else an option). 3. Any games you'd recommend for a guy who once loved playing Pokemon?

hard to find discount nintendo stuff as their products don't really drop in price. I got my kids one last year around black friday online and it came with mariokart, which is still 55$. Also came with 3 months of their online service which lets you play a lot of old super nintendo, sega, and NES games. For a few bucks more a month you can play most of the good N64 titles too.

I once swallowed a book of synonyms.

It gave me the thesaurus throat I have ever had.

You ruined it with the double "the." Dad joke fail

I have 2 of the Pokémon games including Arceus, it's really good.

You should be able to find used ones pretty cheap on marketplace as well, they released a OLED version and a lot of people sell the older ones to snag that version.

MarioKart and Spyro are also great games on the system. But I think the games Ashevolle mentioned would be great to start with.

I did use the qualifier “probably.”

I could have bought a Yugo with all the quarters I spent……

My dad won a yugo back in the 80's. Got a call from the radio station and thought it was a prank. Told them he didnt want no dang Yugo, . They gave it to someone else.

I still have my original and about 55-60 games. I got some at Garage Sales for semi cheap.

My kids love those games
