As a preface, I have ONLY experienced this game on the Switch. I have a 5 & 6 year old who love playing it. They only play in Creative mode so that means they can't die and they get as much materials as they want to build and it plays great for them (think unlimited Legos). There are people that have played this game on other devices (stronger consoles, gaming PC's, etc) and say it feels subpar in comparison, but I don't think kids will care at all. The reviews for it on Amazon are great, and it's nice to have a game that encourages creativity. There is a bit of a learning curve on the controls, so I encourage you to look at YouTube tutorials or something to get a decent grasp. Kids will learn how to work it quickly once they get the basics down.
Warning to all that the switch has a limit of 2GB per game per profile. My son is constantly getting messages that there is insufficient storage despite 100GB free on my SD card. This applies to all games on switch, but Minecraft is the only one I've seen hit the limit.
it will be backwards compatible, they have pretty much confirmed this

Digital at the Nintendo e-shop is also $14.99 if you don't need the physical version.

It's decent. It has either been pretty good lately, like they improved the performance -- to me meaning the world actually loads and things are not transparent -- or I have just been desensitized to it.

My older boys play it on xbox and windows but my experience has been with the littler kids and Switch.

I would hope that Nintendo would make them backward compatible. Or is there another reason you're thinking of?

Dumb question. Is this the same game as Minecraft legends or is that a sequel?

Different game. It's the original sandbox game. Legends is more of a story type game with a plot if I'm not mistaken. But just check it out on YouTube.

Thanks, that one and dungeons also 50% off. Seems like this one (original) is probably better for beginner though.
