Choose this Nintendo Switch console to play favorite games anywhere with one system. It replaces both home and portable components for a seamless experience, docking with your television or standing alone on a tabletop for outdoor action on its 6.2-inch screen. This Nintendo Switch console includes the Joy-Con detachable controller and can link with other units for multiplayer adventures.
Switch is like the culmination of everything Nintendo has done before. The Joy-Con controllers have Wii Remote like motion controls (only better), split controller design (hold one in each hand), joint controller design (attach to the grip), tilt control (even on grip or with screen in hand), NFC built-in for amiibo, HD Rumble force feedback (have to feel it to believe it), a built-in camera for the more gimmicky games, and super long battery life. The screen allows you to play on the go, or you can use the kickstand and play 'tabletop' mode -- and even share one of the 2 Joy-Cons for on the spot multiplayer!
But all that is meaningless without amazing games to play, and while there are some cool games already out at launch (Snipperclips, Fast RMX, Blaster Master Zero), everyone knows that THE game to play is Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Which is truly an accomplishment in game design, and will blow anyone away who tries it.
My first reaction was that it is odd to get a generic enemy amiibo, but after consideration that actually makes this a rather unique amiibo because of that, and the Bokoblin does end up being an iconic enemy in the game.
Access special game functionality with this Link Rider amiibo. It works with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and other compatible games, and a quick tap brings more fun to your adventures. This Link Rider amiibo figure includes the Zelda character riding a charging warhorse and brandishing a sword.
Very nicely detailed amiibo, but the hooded face is too hidden; actually the Link character is smaller than other amiibo to fit the confines of the overall size -- they could have made this figure bigger.

Very well made figurine, with expansive wingspan. It's a pity that this exclusive figurine is also so rare, as the exclusivity would otherwise be a true catch for Best Buy. Usable in the just released Kirby Rainbow Curse game, along with Smash Bros.
