    I haven't played 2K in several years. This edition served as my reentry and from what I remember, I'm impressed with the quality graphics and gameplay. I have read reviews about people complaining about the controls. Maybe I don't know an better, but I find the controls amazing!! Career mode can have some lags in the cut scenes, but I don't regularly play that mode. Best Bey served up a great price on this ($17.99) so I am 100% happy with my purchase.

    Great game. Bought it for my grandson and he loves it. Plays it a lot. He was not very interested in basketball and I thought these would spark some interest in playing and watching basketball. It definitely has gotten him interested in playing basketball. He has learned a lot about the game and has had a lot of fun. Great deal for the money.

    I am not a sports person, but I purchased this game because of actually another switch game. I am finding this game challenging but fun. I do not understand some of the moves, but once I figure out more controls , I am having fun. If you play or watch basketball, definitely purchase this game.

    Amazing business model. Year after year people buy the product to have the new rosters -- what a great business model! We should all be so successful in creating something that people 'renew' purchase each year. Fun game too.

    I purchased this game for a gift for my nine year old grand son. He was very happy to receive it. Although I didn’t play with it, I know the game has to be good because he actually stopped playing FortNite to play it.

    Great game: Hard dificulty, SD Card required.

    Wow, this game is really good. It's very complicated, I've been playing in the rookie level for some weeks, and I have only won one game. This is a test for sports fans, I am not a big basketball fan, but I do recommend this game to get into the sport and enjoy some video game challenges. Heads up. You will need a SD Card, this game even if you buy the physical version, you will need to have it in your SD Card. That was an upsetting surprise after I picked it up, but well, eventually every Switch owner will need one. So I got around my this incident. As usual, you can purchase points to unlock some features, but you do NOT need to do that if you just want to play. So, I really enjoy that.

    The game is just a joy to play. Every level is unique and brimming with charm, from the begrudged but determined enemies, to the vibrant backgrounds. It's always fun to see how you can interact with each level, and discover its secrets.

    Great graphics for a Switch game. However, I had to download a 35 gb update before I could even play the game. Didn't know that ahead of time and wasn't happy. A ton of microtransactions, too, which is a huge put off.

    Had so much fun of NBA2K game on PS4 before, and now in Nintendo Switch. Did not take too long to get used to the NS controller. Game control/graphic of NBA2K is still the best.

    I got this for under $20 so that was a pretty good price for any Switch game. I have liked playing it but the shooting mechanic is odd and I'm not quite used to it yet.

    Amazing game, I thought I grew out of gaming but it seems the switch is perfect for me, doesn’t take away any other primary focus like tv or maybe even family gatherings lol
