The camera isnt too bad. It has a nice feature of bwing removed from the base to be connected to the top of the switch.

Got it on sale and it works great for handheld. Would not recommend for parties or large groups of people, but definitely get it when on sale.

It looks great, has quality and weight to it but the camera functionally is the worst I have seen on any modern peice of tech in a long time. It's like 480p. In 2025? For this price you could get something 720p(the switch 2 will take any of my other 1080p webcams just fine). I thought about returning but I decided to keep it just to treat it kind like an amiibo figure on my shelf.

Looks great and pairs easily with the Switch 2 console. Resolution is OK, but not as great in low light.

I really enjoy the Hori Piranha Plant Camera! The design is playful and creative, the model looks fantastic, and it’s a fun item to use and display. A great mix of functionality and Nintendo charm.

This is a really cool plant. It doesn't need water and it doesn't need to much sunlight. Doesn't work really well on a Samsung 75" inch TV though. It is a great item for those who love and respect Nintendo and there posterchild Mario. LoL hehe

Its 2025 and a 480p webcam costing more than the official 1080p one is insane to say the least. Looks great, but best buy will have a ton of these available open box.

Pros: Looks great as a novelty Piraahna Plant | Cons: Terrible camera quality. 480p. Really? Doesn't mention video quality on the box. This is unacceptable quality for 2025 and not worth the price. Come on. Returned.

It may be cheaper now (it was more expensive at launch) but the camera quality is only 480p so it looks awful it also barely connects to the switch 2

It's absolutely adorable. Unfortunately its picture quality is not. Everything is built beautifully. Cables are sturdy. Set up is clean cut. But the picture is very washed out. I Unfortunately returned. If it had been cheaper I would have kept for collector at least.

Looks neat, daughter loves the look. Camera quality is much worse than the other Nintendo option... for the money I'd go with the other one, cute novelty though much better collector deal than anything of actual use, from a distance

Best Buy does well restocking their gaming stuff, and they are pretty reliable with pre-orders. So glad I got my hands on this for my Switch 2. Design is adorable!
