Must pick up to add to your switch 2 collection if your a fan of Madden or sports. Fun to play online and with friends. Great to have Madden back on Nintendo and looks great docked or handheld mode.

I enjoyed playing the game on the switch 2 my favorite team is falcons Atlanta

Madden 26 on the new Nintendo Switch 2 completely exceeded my expectations. The graphics look sharper than ever, and the gameplay feels incredibly smooth thanks to the Switch 2’s upgraded performance. My 5-year-old has fallen in love with it — he’s learned how to call plays, celebrate touchdowns, and even recognizes some of the players now! What I really like is how accessible it is for both kids and adults. The controls are easy to pick up, but the game still delivers that classic Madden realism and strategy that longtime fans expect. We’ve been playing side-by-side in handheld mode and then docking it to finish a game on the big screen — the transition is seamless. If you’re a football fan or just want a fun, family-friendly sports game, Madden 26 on Nintendo Switch 2 is an absolute win. It’s brought a ton of excitement (and a few touchdown dances) to our living room!

I was happy to hear Madden coming back to Nintendo after years nothing. Its great to have this portable and on the go anywhere. Graphics look pretty good. Has everything the other platforms have. Yes it has some stuttering but to me doesn't affect game play. I played version on Xbox Series X and it stutters too. So im sure a patch can fix some of it. Have not played online but has option and watched some YouTuber's and online seems good. I wished EA would have put game on keycard which would have saved over 50GB of space! Overall i am enjoying it.

This version of Madden is great if you want to play handheld and offline which is what i bought ut for. I believe the PS5 and Xbox versions are a better option if you want a big screen, online experience as graphics are better on those consoles. Overall couldnt be happier with playing Madden handheld and being able to take it on the go!

Im enjoying it. Excellent graphics and gameplay. 30fps which is ok…. If you to play football on the goal, this is a great option.

There hasn't been a Madden game on Nintendo in a very long time, and while this game looks nice on the box art, and it does look pretty good, the idea to make it run at 30fps to make the box graphics looks good is ridiculous. The game is very laggy if you're used to playing this on any other platform, including playing it on a handheld on the Asus Ally. If EA had simply lowered the graphics settings, or gave a performance option, this wouldn't be an issue, but it completely changes the way the game feels as everything is so laggy you have to constantly hit the buttons for everything sooner than you do on anything other platform, completely ruining the timing. If you haven't played a Madden game in 10-15 years, then maybe it won't be an issue, but it is an issue. The other inexcusable issue is the lack of giving the user an option to use non-Nintendo button layout. Again, if you're coming from any other platform, you're used to playing the game a certain way, and because of the stupid button layout Nintendo uses, flipping the buttons backwards, everything gets screwed up. You want to throw to the open guy, who has a B above his head, oh right, you have to throw to A, or wait, no, yes, that's it. But also, want to throw to Y, well that's backwards too. There is no reason they couldn't have a toggle that just says use a different layout, or let you label everything yourself. This is the true game breaker. Been playing on XBOX and/or PC since 2001 - and it's impossible to flip your brain around to ignore your muscle memory, and it could have been easily remedied. Not sure if EA or Nintendo is at fault, but it's inexcusable. They could easily fix the two things above with a patch, but you know they won't do it since they want to sell you the fixed version next year as a new game. Skip this version unless you've never played a Madden game before or you haven't played one since the Wii U days.

The game runs well in my opinion with a few stutters but not really in gameplay more-so in loading screens otherwise its a competent way to play the game on the go and has eveything the other consoles have, only thing is some glitches not present in other versions but it has no glitches where xbox or Playstation do.

I haven't played Madden since I had a PS2 so it's taking some getting used to. But the gameplay and graphics are excellent,couple glitches here and there during videos but not during gameplay. I've enjoyed it so far.

I’m glad that Switch 2 has Madden 26 so I can play it on the go. I don’t have to be at home playing the game. Great game and graphics.

Looks good on the switch 2 playes well. Always been fan of madden

Game is quickly downloaded on switch 2 and there are very minimal lags in this game. Graphics are good enough for a switch, but I’d say that the gameplay is hard to quickly master as handled-mode. This is definitely a game to be played on big screen.

Great game. Franchise mode has gotten so much better since the last Madden I bought six years ago.

It has great graphics but the announcers seem to be a few seconds behind the actual outcome of a play. It is annoying at times. I hope they can fix this issue with an update.

Great about time Nintendo has Madden again bring on nfl2k next the best football games

Great new presentation features and it's great to have a portable version of Madden for on the go. Not too noticeable slowdown in certain cutaway scenes, but given that this is the first time on the Switch 2, it'll only improve from here.

Game is ok has a lot more glitches than most would like, but it is very playable

With all if the negativity out there around the game, it works well on the switch and its a great way to play the game on the go.

So glad to finally get a Madden game for the switch been missing this for years. Now I can play with my son!

Waited a long time for a portable updated madden. Worth it for offline and franchise and looks good too! Not sure about online play but why would you think this has the same power to play online as ps5 and xbox? Lol
