Need a break? Borrow a Nintendo Switch!

Now that the days are getting shorter and the weather is getting colder, why not take a break with a Nintendo Switch from the Bentley Library? 

The library’s Nintendo Switch consoles and games are available for you to borrow with your Bentley ID. Our Switch kits come with everything you need to connect to your TV or play on the go. Extra Joy-Cons are also available to borrow for multiplayer games as well as racing wheels!  

Our game collection includes both single-player and multiplayer games covering a variety of genres including action, adventure, puzzles, sports, and more:

• Grab some friends to compete in games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (our most popular game!), Super Smash Brothers Ultimate, Jackbox Party Pack 7, or Super Mario Party
• Play with your dream team in NBA 2K25 or EA Sports FC25
• Explore Hyrule with Link in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and its sequel The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
• Get cozy in Animal Crossing: New Horizons or Stardew Valley
• Annoy townsfolk in Untitled Goose Game
• Battle through the underworld in Hades
• And many others to try including new arrivals such as Super Mario Party Jamboree and Red Dead Redemption!

Our complete game collection is browsable on our Video Games & Gaming page or in the library near the Deloitte (Einstein’s) café next to the Popular Reading collection. Bring the game case over to the library services desk to check it out!

Console kits, games, and extra controllers can be checked out for a loan period of one week. Holds may be placed on console kits and games.

We also have a Nintendo Switch Lite kit -- perfect for a quick solo play study break in the library! The Switch Lite is available on a first-come, first-served basis, to borrow for up to four hours. This kit can only be used in the library building so remember to bring your headphones or you can borrow a pair of ours!
