Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the product, it’s very good and I would like to buy again

We bought this system for our grandsons 7th birthday. All 3 grandkids love it! Not only is it a system they can play together on the tv screen, it is portable and they can play it in the car when we travel. It was a great purchase.

My daughter loves it! The newer style has great battery life! The portability is awesome and the size is perfect for her! Its peppy and fast! Quick start up, quick loading, all in all just a great buy!

Right now, the Switch feels like any new console—the software library is rather small, the hardware is unfamiliar, and the OS does not feel fully fleshed out. But for me, the 2017 line-up has enough games I want that I decided to get a Switch now rather than waiting. THE CONS: Appropriately enough, the biggest con for me was the Joy-Cons. Specifically, I was one of the lucky few to receive defective Joy-Cons that would lose connection with the console if gripped to tightly or moved too far across the room. I contacted Nintendo, though, and they were incredibly helpful and quick in setting up a free repair order. It also sounds like they changed the manufacturing process, so new Switches should not have this issue. My only other hardware complaints are minor by comparison. I wish there were a charging port on top of the Switch, like on the Wii U gamepad, so I could sit it upright while charging. Also, the Joy-Con controls feel closer to a 3DS or PSP than a full console controller, so while the Joy-Con Grip makes them feel more like a full controller, I might still end up buying a separate pro controller (an extra $70!). On the software side, things just feel rushed out. The OS lacks such features as a web browser, video streaming services, or even the ability to customize the order of games on your home screen. None of those is a deal-breaker for me, as that is all software, and Nintendo has a good history of adding more home screen functionality over time. THE PROS: System absolutely delivers on its promise of offering console-like gaming on the go. The Joy-Con connection to the screen feels secure and satisfying, the screen itself looks great, and I have not seen any frame rate issues. On top of being able to play it like a handheld system, the TV dock is also incredibly small (you could probably fit eight inside an Xbox One), so you can easily take the entire thing—console, Joy-Cons, dock, HDMI cable, and AC adapter—to a friend's house, hotel, etc. Past Nintendo consoles were small enough to be kind of portable, but this is the first one that feels portable by design. On the software side, the OS, while rather bare-bones at the moment, is very clean and incredibly fast (a welcome change from the Wii U). Friends Lists are way easier to manage, not only thanks to Nintendo Account integration, but also because can exchange friend requests with another Switch in the room over Bluetooth. The entire Switch OS can be controlled with a controller or the touch screen, the latter of which is very nice when you have to type, for instance, a wi-fi password. Games are games, but it is nice to have full access to the home menu and system settings without closing your active game. TL;DR: If you like the Switch's launch line-up, none of the early issues should prevent you getting one now. If you are looking at cross-platform games, the Switch's portability gives it a key advantage. If you are only interested in games coming out later this year, it might make sense to wait.

Got this for my son on Christmas and he’s been using it since. He takes great care of it and he plays on it everyday. Batter is long lasting screen is clear and it’s super easy to use.

The switch is fun, the joysticks are a little fragile but other than that it’s fun.

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

I finally gave in to my sons repeated requests for a Nintendo Switch. It has kept his attention so far. The portability makes it great to take on trips. The battery life surprised me by how long it lasts. I would recommend this product but I would make sure to purchase a screen protector to reduce scratches. Just a reminder that this purchase will require more purchases such as games but many titles start @ $19.99

Presentation/Availability: Product was well packaged with no broken/opened box. There weren’t any available at the store. Was purchased online and pickup at store. Performance/Gameplay: My kids love it!!!! Is stronger that it looks on its construction materials. I charged quickly and worked perfectly since the first-time powered on. I also purchased additional memory card, case and pro-controller (recommended). Best of all, is not only for gaming, there are some other cool stuff that you can do with it. I had no problem at all picking up the item at the ‘online orders’ counter. Merchandise was available as I purchased it and the employee was very friendly. Customer service: Very good customer service. I was greeted by an employee as soon as I walked through the door.

I bought this game for my son for his 9th birthday. He loved it. It's great gift. He can travel with it. Buy different video games for it. The price is reasonable for the value you get.

Bought it for my sons birthday he absolutely love it

Perfect gift idea Great item for a white elephant.

Good quality and reasonable price. Highly recommended.

I love the Wii Switch. It is easy to hold and play. I love that it can connect to the TV and have multiple players. Now when the grandkids come to visit we have fun playing together!

The ONLY issue is it needs more games. I am sure they will eventually get all the good games. Destiny and Madden would be huge on the switch. My favorite feature is the ability to give the Wife the TV and keep playing my game.

In my opinion this is the best way to play switch games. I love to be able to take it with me or just enjoy the games on my tv. Battery life is amazing, this is the best version of the Switch

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

I wouldn’t consider myself a “gamer”, as a Gen X’er, but today’s gaming revolution reminds me of my days with Atari and the original Nintendo. But the quality of gaming, the enhanced chips generating incredible graphics, and the flexibility of play influenced my recent purchases of a VR set and the Nintendo Switch! The Switch is a game-changer for Nintendo, which explains the difficulty obtaining the product and the shares of Nintendo soaring! I live the flexibility of play - handheld console or your Smart TV! Admittedly, I bought for the handheld version - and Super Mario Odyssey again brought me back a few years! So much F-U-N!

It is. user Friendly and very handy. Graphics are amazing. as well.

Great Item. Space saver. Controllers excellent. Great buy!
