Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently purchased a Nintendo Switch for in-store pickup, and the experience was fantastic! The ordering process was smooth, and I received a notification as soon as my item was ready. When I arrived at the store, the pickup was quick and hassle-free. The staff was friendy. The Switch works perfectly, and I’m extremely satisfied with my purchase. Highly recommend Best Buy for their great service !

Bought it for my husband’s birthday and he absolutely loved it! It’s his first Nintendo console (aside from the Wii). Also bought it on sale. He can’t put it down! Now we’re just waiting for a new animal crossing game to come out so we can purchase the Switch 2

Great quality, value, and easy to use. Multiplayer options and portability are also perks. Variety of great games available for purchase as well. Definitely recommend.

The best device for kids, it is so easy for manipulation and confortable for long trips. I recommend for personal things of our kids and the older people too can used for a while relax time

Amazing console overall! Games- 5/5 System tech- 5/5 Easy to use- 5/5 Mobility- 5/5 Price 5/5 Family games 100/5 Honestly just buy it. End of story!

My new Nintendo Switch is fun for All. I’m an old Nintendo player and I needed something I can enjoy by myself and with others and the Switch made the mark. It doesn’t take up a lot of space and it’s good fun for everyone.

The Nintendo Switch is a great system and I feel another classic, as much a the original in the 80's. The fact that its both a portable system and also has a base to use on your home TV is perfect! I loved this fact, as it can go on the road, while having the huge screen at home. Kids can take it to their friends and also can have multiple players at once, so they can all enjoy together, depending on the game and an extra attachment. I'm really happy also to see the vast amount of games for different age levels and the crisp graphics and sharp screen. Worth the money spent, and you won't regret it!

I managed to snag this one by camping on the website all day and night and following online alerts to tell me when the Switches were being restocked. It was a major hassle, but I'm glad I went through it because the Switch is worth it. The console itself has such a small footprint compared to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. With the upcoming PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X looking to be such massive bricks that look more at home at a computer desk than an entertainment center, it's relieving to still have a system that doesn't get in the way of anybody's preferred gaming setup. The systems UI itself is very nice and clean too, it's very easy to navigate and get to where you want to go to once you put in a few minutes to get the hang of it. Once again it contrasts with the other two major consoles that throw so much more information at you at once, it can feel a bit cluttered by comparison. The game library is outstanding too. I already own six games and still there are more I'm interested in buying too. Some of them are just releases and updates of Wii U games, so if you already had that you may not have as many games to play, but if you're like the majority and never bought that you'll benefit from all the games you missed the first time around. Plus, having all of Nintendo focused on the Switch instead of being divided between a handheld and console means there will be plenty of first party support to come. There are three downsides that I should mention. The first being that because it's Nintendo, you better be prepared to pay $60 for most of your games. The games on other consoles generally drop to $20 or $30 only a few months after they first launch, but Nintendo almost never lets their games drop in price. You'll have to keep an eye out for major sales if you want to save some money on these titles. The second downside is that the joy cons that come with the system just don't cut it for playing most games. They're designed to work with the Switch in handheld mode, but I feel they're inadequate for long gaming sessions. You'll need to buy a Switch Pro Controller if you plan on mostly playing the Switch docked. Finally, the on system memory is insufficient if you want to store a lot of games digitally. You'll have to buy a microSD card if you don't want to constantly delete and re-download games. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and would recommend it to people who like Nintendo games. Just be aware of the hidden costs that come with owning one.

I had reservations about purchasing a new Nintendo console, fearing it would be too similar to the Nintendo DS or that it would leave a lot to be desired like the Wii. The Nintendo switch was neither, and has provided the perfect combination of nostalgic Nintendo titles and new technology features. The switch makes it easy to transition from the big screen to a handheld device seamlessly. My only recommendation would be to opt for a bundle that packages an additional card for additional memory, or take advantage of physical copies of games to save space on the available storage.

I brought the switch for my husband and he lives it. I’m amazed at the way it works the setup to make two separate joysticks we played mario cart like we used to with our kids growing up. It was a great idea brought back some good memories between us. The gift was from our daughters I just made the purchase. I’m happy my husband is happy and enjoying it. It was worth the price !!!!!

It does exactly what it's supposed to. I love the portability, but you could also just leave it hooked up to your TV all the time. A system is pointless without great games and they keep coming out with more. Zelda and Mario are great. I have all the game systems (Xbox/PS/PC). I'd prefer to play games like Skyrim on one of those systems, but the idea of exploring Skyrim on the go is tempting. I don't really like the controllers that came with the Switch. The Joy-Cons are small, but perfect for kids. If you're used to Xbox/PS controllers, you'll want to buy another controller. I purchased then Mario controller and it's just like I'm playing on my other system.

I had been thinking about getting a nintendo switch for a while now, and I'm so glad I finally got one!! It is a great hand held game for traveling, but it is also great for setting up to a TV or projector. I also love the option to have physical games or digital download because it is very convenient if you're unable to make it to the store. 10/10 would recommend. The only thing I would say was not the best was the storage space, but this was an easy fix once I got an SD card in there.

Got this system as a Christmas present for the kids. The versatility of the system and controller size is perfect for kids. You may want to look into a larger controller for adult hands. An online subscription is recommended but is much less than the competition's yearly price. A micro SD card (at least 256 GB) is also recommended if you plan on buying games online.

I haven’t owned a Nintendo system since GameCube. With work disrupted due to covid I wanted to get back in and had my eyes on the new Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The switch is so versatile. You can play on the big screen or as a hand held. Tons of accessories to make playing comfortable. You can also buy extra docking stations to add to other TVs if you want. Great selection of games. I think for hard core gamers you will still be looking at PS or Xbox, but this is a great complement to those systems in your collection. Highly recommend.

Very pleased with this game system and happy to find it on sale. You can find games that appeal to all ages and games for the whole family to play together.

A great help and excellent recommendations when buying this product for my children, with great kindness and wonderful attention when being in the store they did not treat me as a customer, but as part of the family

The Nintendo Switch is the first truly portable console experience, allowing you to play games with graphics between PS3 and PS4 quality on the go. The tablet feels great when out of the dock, and the joycons, while taking getting used to, feel good even in large hands like mine. I definitely recommend a screen protector if you're taking it with you much, plus you likely will want a larger micro SD card since it comes with 32 GB by default, which is rather puny. The way the joycons slip in and out of the tablet and controller though leaves a little to be desired, as on day 1 they always felt super snug but now they have a tiny bit of wiggle to them.

This is a fantastic portable game console and the greatest handheld gaming system to date. The Nintendo Wii & WiiU were complete garbage. The Nintendo Switch however, is something I am proud to own and play, whether at home or on the road. Lots of fantastic games are available. While it's not the best system to play online multiplayer with and you miss out on certain games like Call of Duty, Madden, and Grand Theft Auto...it's the best Nintendo system since the Super Nintendo and with games like Smash Brothers and Mario Kart, everyone who gets to play will have a blast.

Great quality fun to play games with friends and family never a dull moment with my switch around

I'm only recently getting the switch only because I made the decision to wait until more games came out for it. Glad I did and have yet to regret this purchase. You can use it on the big screen or as a handheld. As of right now i've used it more in handheld than on big screen. Ironic. Great console for the price just dont expect super high res and super AAA games. I got the switch for the experience and the cool factor. If I wanted to play super high res games I'd play on my PC but I knew what I was getting into here. Ironic the next day I got mine I was able to convince my friend to pick himself up one too. He just cannot get enough of it.
