Reggie Fils-Aime Nintendo Switch

Nintendo Switch has been named as one of the holiday season’s hottest items in Target’s 2017 Top Toys List, presenting the 29 products that the retailer believes will be the most sought after gifts this year.

The portable home console managed to secure a place in the Techy Toys category, sat alongside the Moonlite Starter Pack, Star Wars Force Link BB-8 Mega Playset, and the rather menacingly sounding Meccano Erector M.A.X. Robotic Interactive Toy with Artifical Intelligence.

“With Target’s broad assortment, we’re a destination for toys throughout the entire year. Leading up to the holidays, we’ve spent months watching the latest trends, curating the best-of-the-best products and partnering with top toy makers to create some amazing Target-exclusives – all to make gift-giving easy and fun for our guests,” enthused Mark Tritton, Target’s executive vice president and chief merchandising officer.

“This list – plus the more than 1,400 new and exclusive toys Target is offering – are sure to light up any face this holiday season.”
