You're excited to buy a new Nintendo console — now, make sure to protect it. Geek Squad® Protection enhances your manufacturer warranty and covers you for accidental damage.

  • If you accidentally damage your Nintendo Switch while handling it, no need to worry, it’s on us: Enjoy peace of mind knowing that you're covered if the unexpected happens.
  • No out-of-pocket costs for parts or labor: We take care of 100% of the costs of parts and labor for covered repairs and failures, with no hidden fees.
  • If the controller that came with your console stops working due to a covered failure, we'll replace it: Get a one-time replacement for the controller that was included in your original portable gaming console box.
  • If your battery won't hold a charge, we'll take care of it: Get a one-time replacement for your original, non-disposable battery (or product if it’s an integrated battery) if it fails to hold at least 80% of its original charge specifications.
  • If there's a hardware failure, we'll repair or replace your product: This could be a problem with an internal part, how the portable gaming console was manufactured or normal wear and tear. It could also be caused by dust, internal heat or humidity.
  • If your portable Nintendo Switch won’t turn on because of a power surge, count on us to make it right: You're covered if there's a power surge or fluctuation that damages your product. This includes a surge caused by a lightning strike.
  • If your screen has bad pixels or a shadow image, consider it handled: If you have at least three pixels that are always the same color or a ghost image that won't go away, we'll get your screen looking like new.
  • You can transfer your Geek Squad Protection: When you sell or give someone your covered product, Geek Squad Protection is still in effect, with no additional charges or restrictions. Call 1-800-433-5778 (8 a.m.-9 p.m. CT) to transfer.
