Nintendo game consoles with memory card slots

The game console, as the name implies, is distinguished by the presence of a colorful OLED screen with deep colours. By reducing the frames, its diagonal is increased to 7", and the resolution is 1280x720 pixels. The model allows you to play in three modes: portable, desktop, using a wide adjustable support and placing the console on the floor or on a table at the right angle, or on a large screen by connecting the console to a TV. The included docking station has two USB ports, an HDMI connector for connecting to a TV and a new LAN port for stable online gaming in TV mode, while the two Joy-Con controllers, which are equipped with HD vibration and an infrared motion camera, can be detached more→at any time to play with a friend. In addition, the Nintendo Switch (OLED model) boasts built-in speakers with improved sound and increased storage capacity up to 64 GB. And to download even more games, you can expand the storage using a microSD memory card. A 3.5 mm audio jack is provided for connecting headphones, a microphone and a headset. Responsible for battery life is a 4310 mAh battery, one charge of which will last up to 9 hours. But this time directly depends on the games: for example, if you play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the battery will last about 5.5 hours.

A portable version of the popular game console from one of the market leaders, the Japanese company Nintendo. Positioned as a product of the middle price category, designed for mobile gaming. Fully compatible with a vast library of popular games designed for its big sister, the Nintendo Switch hybrid console. The differences lie in a much more affordable cost, a smaller screen size (5.5 "vs. 6.2"), the absence of a docking station, the inability to connect to a TV, as well as non-removable Joy-Con controller panels. Thanks to these design changes, the weight of the console has been reduced by 31% (from 398g to 275g), which greatly increases the attractiveness of the device as a mobile consol more→e that you can take with you without hesitation in any bag, backpack or even an outerwear pocket. The hardware basis of the Nintendo Switch Lite model is still a powerful Nvidia Tegra X1 processor with 4 GB of RAM. The resolution of the capacitive touch screen with high-quality protective glass is 1280x720, and the amount of permanent memory is 32 GB, which can be expanded by installing a microSD/SDHC/SDXC card (up to 2 TB). For fast loading of game content, a high-speed Wi-Fi adapter is provided. The capacity of the Li-Ion battery is 3570 mAh, which is enough for 3-6 hours of use.

A popular portable console introduced by the famous Japanese company Nintendo in 2017. One of the key features of the model is the original form factor, which provides several usage scenarios at once. So, the Nintendo Switch package includes a 6.2-inch tablet, a special docking station and two Joy‑Con wireless controllers. These controllers can be attached to the side faces of the tablet and thus turn the device into a portable console that you can easily take with you on the road, travel, etc. Or you can connect them together to form a full-fledged gamepad, and connect the set-top box to your TV and play in such a way that as if you are using a classic stationary console. It is noteworthy t more→hat when connected to a TV, the resolution of the image displayed by the device increases from HD to full FullHD. In total, up to 8 branded controllers can be connected to one console to play together with friends.

The technical characteristics of this portable set-top box are fully consistent with the name: in fact, we have the same 3DS in front of us, and the main difference from the original is the increased size of both displays — 4.88 "and 4.18" for the top and bottom, respectively. Another difference is the bundle, which includes, in addition to the stylus, also a 4 GB SD memory card. Other characteristics are almost identical: 3D playback without special glasses, a camera with a pair of lenses for three-dimensional shooting, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a Wi-Fi module.

This desktop console can be called legendary without exaggeration. Completely obsolete in terms of performance, it still remains popular thanks to its unique gameplay: wireless joysticks with accelerometers allow you to simulate the same movements that are used in real life (hitting a tennis racquet, swinging a fishing rod, etc.), but for Due to the huge number of additional accessories, the game becomes even more interesting. Of the technical features, it is worth noting 5.1 sound support and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules.

A portable game console, in fact, a modification of the advanced 3DS model, created with the expectation of simplification and corresponding reduction in price. The simplification affected primarily 3D capabilities — none of the 2DS screens are capable of reproducing 3D (although the camera for creating three-dimensional images has not disappeared). Another difference is the clumsy body. The rest of the characteristics of the device have not changed much: two displays with the same dimensions (3.53 "and 3.02"), a Wi-Fi module, an accelerometer with a gyroscope, flash-based memory (2 GB) plus a card slot. The package includes a stylus and a 4 GB card.

Although this console is similar in name to the original 3DS XL (and even the screen sizes are the same — 4.88 "and 4.18"), it is much closer in terms of characteristics to the "regular" New 3DS, released in the same 2014. Of these characteristics, it is worth noting, first of all, support for 3D graphics (the "calling card" of the whole family), additional controls (including a second analogue joystick), NFC support, in addition to traditional Wi-Fi, 1 GB of internal memory and a microSD card slot. The console has 2 cameras, with the rear equipped with a twin lens for shooting 3D, and the front one has an eye tracking function to optimize the 3D image on the display.

Having replaced the original Wii, this model not only continued the traditions of the series, but also introduced several new original solutions. So, the design of the controller actually blurs the line between desktop and portable consoles: it is actually a separate portable console with a microphone, camera and its own 6.2" touch screen, where, if necessary, you can switch the gameplay from an external screen. At the same time the console is compatible with the games and all the accessories of its predecessor.

As the first handheld console from Nintendo to support 3D, this model still has very advanced 3D capabilities. So, the upper display is capable of displaying a 3D image visible to the naked eye, and the software part allows you to adjust the “three-dimensional intensity”, and the camera is equipped with a pair of lenses for 3D shooting. The bottom screen is made touch, the delivery set includes a special stylus. Additional equipment includes a Wi-Fi module and an accelerometer with a gyroscope.

A high-end portable console, the successor to the original 3GS, retaining its basic principles and at the same time having a number of changes and improvements. The most noticeable external differences are an expanded set of controls (including a new analogue stick) and larger screen sizes — 3.88" and 3.33". In addition, the set-top box received an improved processor, a microSD slot (instead of SD), an NFC, and improved 3D capabilities. Features such as 3D shooting using the rear camera and tracking the user's eyes from the front have been preserved. But the built-in memory has decreased to 1 GB. The console is compatible with older games for the DS family.
