Of course if he likes those Wii U games it's bizarre he doesn't want a switch.



And my favourite controller of this gen is also the Switch pro controller, which I'm also using with my PC.
My boys just turned 11 and 13. The 13 year old has only ever played on gaming PCs, and the 11 year old has pretty much stopped using his xbox in favor of a gaming pc.

If Minecraft is a favorite, the kids say it much better on the PC. My kids have finally quit Fort Nite and have gone back to Minecraft after not playing for a couple years.

A useful side benefit is that they know their way around a computer pretty well and are picking up some coding skills.

I agree with the others though about what their friends are using being the most important factor.
