Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Nintendo Switch is amazing. The multiple different playstyles makes for a fun change. There’s a great selection of games available on the eShop, and console games like Super Mario Odyssey are awesome.

Picked this up and a couple of kid/family games. They device is great—super easy to setup and transfers back and forth between TV play and handheld seamlessly.

The Nintendo switch is by far a really innovated and really great console to own, whether your an "on the go'' type of gamer or a "sit in front of the tv on a comfy couch" type of gamer or both. The battery life and the processor has been improved with the new version of the switch and there are a lot of great titles that have been released and are still being released that will catch anyone's attention. side note I actually own an xbox one X and a ps4 Pro and I have to say..I haven't really used them as much since building my gaming pc and buying the switch except for only some jrpg's like persona 5 on the ps4.

I bought this console because how easy it is to “switch” from TV playing to mobile playing. The battery lasts long enough for a good gaming session and overall everything about this console is as expected.

LOVE the switch. It reminds me of the Gamecube console. Bringing me back to my youth. The remotes are obviously very small when holding them individually. It's a little uncomfortable but still works. I am also a little bummed that after a few years it does not have access to Netflix nor does it have disney+. Hoping that'll change in the near future.

My son loves this! He set it up himself and plays it all the time. Nintendo systems and games are always spot on fun and easy to use.

The Switch is quite a technological marvel with its ability to be played anywhere like Nintendo's past handhelds yet contain the power better than even the previous Wii U console. The system storage is not the best for downloads, but the games already available to buy such as Splatoon 2 and Fire Emblem Warriors are fun to play with the Joy-Con controllers used together. Even if online gameplay will soon cost money, it's still much cheaper at $20 a year (less than $2 a month, about the price of a candy bar) than Sony and Microsoft's online services at about $60 a year.

The Nintendo Switch is popular for good reason. It is fun to use and easy - even for beginners. There is a good selection of titles, but I would like to see even more!

A great product that offers so much entertainment and convenience for the price! The selection of games available for this console are great, and many are wholesome enough to enjoy as a family together. Who doesn't like playing a character like Mario one minute then doing Zumba the next? The upcoming games also look promising. I like this product a lot!

After the sad fate of the Wii U (a good console in my eyes) not many people believe Nintendo would ever come back from such a fail, but Nintendo proved them all wrong. The Nintendo Switch is a find "hybrid console" meaning it can act as a home console or portable. I was surprised how small the console actually is and at the same time feels solid in your hands. The Nintendo Switch already has two Game of the Year contenders in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey so the console is a great buy for this holiday season. There are a few cons as in you need an Micro SD card for Storage but if you are reading this on Best Buy you do have affordable options so be sure to pick a a 128 GB one

The battery life last long! Amazing on the go as well as great game system when docked as well. Compared to the last model for the switch this model is highly recommended.

This console is great and compact. The graphics are a definite improvement but still behind the PS and XBOX (but you aren’t buying this for the graphic quality). All of the games are awesome and look great. Once a larger library of games is available, it will make this system even better. The controllers work well right out of the box (didn’t need a charge). The only issue is having to charge the controllers. It does not come with a charge ability unless it is plugged into the console which then requires it to be plugged into the dock to play games. There is only the one power cord to use if you take it out to play on the go. I definitely recommend buying the chargeable controller when you buy the switch.

This is the best game to have a good time with your wife and kids

I own all the consoles, but this one ended up being way better than I expected. The games are great, and the portability makes it something I wish the PSP was.

As of this writing, 12/15/17, there are not many game options. They have a few good games at launch, like zelda and Mario, but are missing a variety of 3rd party games. While this is no suprise, as it never is with Nintendo, it is more noticible since the games we got are rereleases that have been out for some time. Hopefully the line up will get more inclusive with time. Beyond the games, the hardware is great. The controller is a large step up from the wiiu gamepad despite being similar in design. Since the controllers charge while the machine is docked, we have had no issues with needing to stop playing to charge. We seem to get about 3 to 4 hours from the tablet portion when it is off the dock.

If you got the 2nd iteration of the console (indicated by the background color on the box is completely red), you can pretty much play this for 5-6 hours as opposed to 2-3. Totally worth it, even if you have the first generation model that has its own secret perks if it's a launch model. Personally, I'd still choose this over the Lite model since you get a lot of value for $300. A set of Joycons are $80, and the dock itself is $60, and you're getting all of these right out of the box. Plus you still have the option of playing your games on the big screen. The only tradeoff is the console's LCD isn't as good as the Lite's.

I got this Switch for my 7 year old son’s birthday after debating between the PS5 and Xbox. He likes it and I love the fact that it can be hand held or hooked up to the tv. It is definitely a nice gaming system for younger kids.

Best Buy is the best place to buy stuff and enjoy buying from them

I purchased this item for my daughter's Christmas gift. Everything came as stated. My daughter loves her gift. I ordered this online for pickup and the service was great. They never had me waiting for more than 2 hours, and when I came to collect it, they greeted me and were very kind.

I have PS2 and Wii. I have played on PS3 and Xbox at friends' places. But Switch is so different! Small console, very portable, easy to set up. Very few wires. Sleek controllers. Superb battery life.
