Can I play Nintendo Switch in a country where I don't buy?
I'm definitely going to purchase the Nintendo Switch. However, I travel all year round and thus wonder if it can be played in a country where I don't buy it.
In the case of the Nintendo 3DS, you can bring it to a different country and play there just by purchasing an adapter adjusted for the universal use (100-240V). I purchased it in China, where the 3DS was not released by Nintendo but it worked without any problems.
But the Nintendo Switch is considered a console for the home use. So I wonder if it is possible to play it in another country. Also, can I play it only as a handheld device or also as a console connected to the TV?
I asked this to Nintendo customer support but have not got any response.
You can use the Switch in any country you like.
Depending on where you buy the switch you get a different plug for the charger(Note: That part that goes into the switch is always the same). If you plan on traveling a lot you would need a different charger, or better a adapter to plug it into the local electricity network. Something like this.
WIFI is standardized so there should be no problems.
Connection to the TV is via HDMI, so only thing there would be the need for an HDMI Port on the TV/Screen. Not completly sure about this one but i think there are no other factors to consider.
The nintendo switch is not region locked - so you can buy whatever imported game you like.
