Nice device, works well, does what it's supposed to do.

I always hold off on purchasing new video game consoles for the first few months at least, usually for a full year or so, since there always seem to be kinks to get worked out. When I came across these in stock at Best Buy, after seeing it nowhere for months, I decided to pick one up with a lot of other accessories. First off, having heard some complaints about the system in terms of scratches from docking, Joycons loosing connection from too far away, graphics not stacking up to other systems, I'll say this: I haven't had any issues with the first two and if you care more about what it looks like than how the games play and the overall experience, you probably won't be into this system. This is not a hardcore gamer's system because it was made for the casual gamer to play at home or on the go due to it's portability. You really can't compare it to other systems because it's not like other systems. It sacrifices graphics, sure, but only in lieu of being completely portable. The battery charge lasts quite awhile on the full system out of the dock - I found myself playing more often undocked than docked since it's convenient to be able to take it up to bed or in the car on trips if I'm not driving. The batteries in the Joycons also last quite awhile and I have yet to have them run out while playing. Other than that, there's not much to say that's not specific to the games on the system. They have a lot of games to download from the Nintendo eStore so anyone who's complaining about lack of launch titles at this point hasn't checked the store in awhile since there is a lot to keep us busy until the holiday season when they invariably release a slew of new titles.

Nintendo nailed it, finally. It seems they took what they learned from the Wii U and created a great gaming console. This machine has a bright future, I wouldn't hesitate to buy again.

incredible console, great battery life, a stunning library of games, but i would still recommend the OLED if you play in handheld/tabletop mode at all. here's the reason: the OLED model solves 2 big problems with this particular model. the kickstand on the back of this model is rather fragile, and is not angle adjustable, and the LCD model still has touch sensitivity issues on the edges of the display, making the higher touch sensitivity option necessary to have on for games like arcaea that are touch focused. still an incredible option for a game console, but maybe go for the OLED.

My kids are really into gaming. We already have a ps4 and Xbox. My son has been begging for the switch for some time now and i got to say its pretty cool!!! I love how easy it is to put together, a console without a bunch of confusing cords. Think it has just one or two. I mean to be fair my ps4 has so many cause i have a vr connected to it LOL. But anyways not only do my kids love it but i LOVE IT as well. The Super Mario games remind me of my childhood! I have a really good time playing it and my son was surprised at how good i was at the game lol #MomPoints

My partner and I purchased the Nintendo Switch just so she could eventually play Untitled Goose Game (which lived up to the hype). Beyond that game though, we've really enjoyed racing together in Mario Kart, cooperating through the levels of Super Mario Brothers, and exploring many of the indie games available for the console. The flexibility in playing alone in handheld mode or multiplayer in either tabletop mode or docked and connected to a tv has been great. I would recommend this console for anyone looking for casual gameplay and beyond.

This is a pretty great console and has a good library of games. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is the joy con issue. It sucks that you will eventually have to either get them repaired for a temporary fix or purchase new joy cons or a $60 pro controller. Other than that it's Nintendo you can't really go wrong.

Perfect system to play at home or on the go! Even better to have when you’re camping and it’s raining. I have always loved Nintendo. Make sure you buy an SD card so you can play your favorite games.

The Switch is great and versatile. I would have given it 5 stars if it had more games appealing to me but that will come in time. The one type of game I would like it to make available is a Wii Sports type game with similar games like bowling or boxing. All that said, the system works well and is fun to play. It is also great to able to pull it off the dock and play it as a handheld system.

A game console that provides loads of fun with portability?! Sign me up! I highly recommend this console, it offers an on the go experience that just makes it worth the price tag.

Love the switch! Can play my Zelda games with ease

I love the Switch. I got it for my son's birthday, but we enjoy it together. It's versatile, so we can play on our TV, or he can play by himself. I forgot how much I missed playing Mario Kart!

Great gift for my kids! Easy set up. Love how versatility with being able to be used in 3 different ways!

Overall I'd say this is a great product. My only complaint is how small the joycons are, even with the included adapter. I have large hands so I am probably not a part of the majority they kept in mind when designing them. Luckily a Pro Controller was perfect for me so I can enjoy all this console has to offer. The fact that you can take it anywhere you want is a huge plus for me, as I am disabled and sometimes I get stuck downstairs until I have enough strength to make it back upstairs in my home. This has really been a game changer for me.

Very easy to use and fun to play! Makes family game night very entertaining.

Great system that is very fun to play. Charge lasts a long time.

So I finally got online at a time when they were in stock. So happy! Fun and easy to set up. Mario Kart was the main reason I wanted this.

The Nintendo switch is as close to a perfect system as it gets, and the new version even improves it with better battery life and clearer Screen. Amazing.

Easy setup. Good battery life. Works well! My 14 year old loves it.

Console is good for the family especially for the kids, great way to have a family night with them and move around having them play some just dance.
