Planning your next family holiday? Don’t forget to pack the ultimate travel companion – Nintendo Switch.
Whether you’re embarking on a long road trip, flying interstate, or enjoying a relaxing staycation, the portable console is your go-to for family-friendly gaming on the go. Not only does it keep everyone entertained during those inevitable downtimes, but it also brings the family closer together through shared gaming adventures.
Making travel fun for everyone
Travelling with kids can sometimes be challenging, especially when it comes to keeping them engaged during long car rides or flights. The Nintendo Switch console offers a simple solution: portable, versatile, and a wide variety of games to purchase that suit all ages.
“We recently took a road trip from Sydney to the Gold Coast, and honestly, Nintendo Switch was a lifesaver,” explained Ruby, mum of two. “My kids were entertained for hours in the car, playing their favourite games without getting restless.”
“It was great to have during the drive, and once we arrived, it became a go-to for some fun family time in the evenings. We’d have little challenges and competitions together and it really helped us enjoy quality time as a family.”
The beauty of the Nintendo Switch console is its flexibility. It can be played solo in handheld mode, perfect for car rides, plane journeys, or simply passing the time during layovers. But it also doubles as a home console when docked, which makes it easy to set up in your hotel room or holiday rental.
Turning downtime into family bonding time
Holidays are meant for relaxation, but there’s always downtime – whether it’s waiting in airports, lounging in hotel rooms, or taking a break from sightseeing. Nintendo Switch turns these quiet moments into opportunities for family bonding. Instead of everyone scrolling on their phones or tuning out in front of the TV, families can come together for some fun, interactive gaming.
“We bought a second Nintendo Switch for our camping trip and it was the best decision,” shared Ben, a father of two. “At night, we’d all join in for some fun family game time, and it was such a great way to chill and bond together around the campfire. The kids loved it, and so did we!”
With multiplayer games that encourage friendly competition and teamwork, Nintendo Switch allows families to connect in ways that traditional forms of entertainment don’t. Whether it’s a cooperative game like Super Mario 3D World, where everyone works together to complete levels, or a competitive race in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, the console creates memorable shared experiences.
Tips for travelling with Nintendo Switch
To make the most of your Nintendo Switch on family holidays, here are a few tips to keep everyone engaged:
1. Charge up: Always make sure to fully charge the console and pack any necessary charging cables. Portable power banks are also handy for longer trips, especially when access to power outlets is limited.
2. Multiplayer on the go: Don’t forget the extra controllers! The Nintendo Switch Joy-Con controllers make it easy to play multiplayer games anywhere, but packing an extra pair ensures more people can join in the fun.
3. Choose games that suit everyone: Pack a mix of single-player and multiplayer games to suit the different moods and moments of the trip. Whether it’s solo handheld gaming during travel or multiplayer fun during downtime, having a variety of games keeps things exciting.
4. Use the tabletop mode: The Nintendo Switch console’s built-in stand allows for tabletop gaming, making it easy to set up in small spaces like airport lounges or hotel rooms. Perfect for multiplayer gaming wherever you are!
Whether it’s keeping the kids happy during travel or turning downtime into unforgettable moments, Nintendo Switch is the ultimate companion for family holidays.
It not only ensures everyone is entertained but also offers unique opportunities to bond through shared experiences, making your next family getaway one to remember.
