Customer Ratings & Reviews

So to start this is my first switch, so i dont have anything to compare it to. As far as first times go, this has blown me away. Performance is great, and the screen looks really good. The battery life has been a bit annoying as I usally run out before I’m done with a gaming session, but it is what it is.

very happy with my new purchase. i skipped getting the first one so here i am. the graphics are great, the controller compatibility is really cool and the screen is huge! battery seems to go fast with high efficiency games but that’s to be expected. i usually play this at home anyway. i recommend a case and screen protector

Supee fast shipping. The switch itself is super cool. The graphics are super clear and more detailed. You can pass down previous downloads from the first switch. So you can play even more games. The controller is smooth and has good grip. Really fast changing. The switch is bigger and has a nice screen super light in weight. Super good gift or for oneself. When you play games the graphics are clear very good definition. And easy for all ages. Love it highly recommend. :)

It feels like this is the promise of everything that the Switch should have been. It's a joy to hold and play on portably, and in a dock it shines in 4k. Games, especially updated ones, are plentiful. It has become my preferred platform, knocking my beloved Steam Deck down from the winners podium. I'll ding it a tiny bit for Game Key Cards, but I feel like that problem will solve itself in the future. A must buy for any fan of gaming.

Not worth 450-500 by a long shot but I used gift cards accumulated through my employer. A solid performing and well bullt console. Cant wait to see what games come out to really push this hardware. Solid build quality. The screen and battery life are excellent. Sound is acceptable for a handheld. It annoys me that we have to buy upgrade packs to take advantage of the better performace on games already owned. As a PC gamer this feels like being robbed tbh. For this reason the switch 2 gets 4 stars. If it goes on sale or some amazing exlusive pops up (cough cough FROMSOFT) go for it. Otherwise its just not worth the money right now.

Let’s get one thing straight — I bought the original Switch, enjoyed it for a solid month, and fully intended to return it… but the wife disagreed so we kept it under mild emotional duress. Fast forward to the Switch 2, and this time, I gave it a shot willingly. Here’s the breakdown from someone who returns literally everything: Performance: Noticeably smoother. I booted up a Mario game and didn’t hear the fan scream like it was doing CrossFit. Frame rates? Solid. My kids noticed, which is wild because they didn’t notice when I got new floors. Screen: It’s sharper than the original and easier on the eyes, even if it’s not OLED. Still, looks good enough to get roasted by in-game characters in high clarity. Battery life: Respectable. Won’t power a road trip, but will survive a few Fortnite tantrums before collapsing. Joy-Cons 2.0: They feel sturdier, but I’m still side-eyeing them like they owe me child support. No drift yet… but I’ve been hurt before. Price + Games: The console isn’t cheap, and the game prices? Might put you in a light financial coma. $70 to get stomped by 8-year-olds in Mario Kart feels personal. Final verdict: Did I try to find reasons to return it? Yes. Did I actually return it? No. That’s basically a standing ovation coming from me. If you’ve got the budget and the nostalgia, the Switch 2 is worth it. Just remember to hide it from your kids until you’ve had a chance to play once.

I had the first generation Nintendo Switch, which was enjoyable. But, it was time. Improved performance, graphics, and a larger size….it was just time! PLUS, picked up Mario Cart World in the bundle, which was a welcomed discount as opposed to buying separately.

Was looking for one but hadn't been able to find one for a month since launch. All of a sudden on my birthday I got an email from best buy saying they had some so I immediately ordered one. Upon unboxing you could tell they stepped the feel up a notch and the console itself is quite a bit bigger than the OLED and the v1 that I had previously. After setting up and installing my screen protector I discovered that the right joycon had no vertical movement. I took the console to the store and they had me return the whole thing. The experience with the guy was a little rocky at first, he seemed cranky and hesitant to help me. But when I returned with all the parts and pieces his tune had completely shifted and he was pleasant and helpful. Even let me get another screen protector without additional cost. I've now got over 20 hours on my switch 2 and I've gotta say it's great.

I used my OLED every single day, and since buying the Switch 2, I have still used it every single day for almost the last month. I’ve been unemployed since February, not by choice at all, and life has been a bit overwhelming and lonely. The Switch 2 has been so fun, the new Mario Kart has been addicting to get used to all the new maps for the first time in YEARS. I love how big the screen is, and the magnetic joycons are a game changer. The ONLY complaint I have is the battery life, and we knew that was coming so I guess I can’t be too disappointed. I’ve taken on an airplane and it drained over half its battery life in a 3 hour flight, which was a bummer. But it charges fast and I don’t regret the purchase one single bit!

I wanted a console that’s easy to jump into and truly feels worthwhile right from the moment you open the box, and this bundle absolutely delivers. The Switch 2 feels polished and responsive, and pairing it with Mario Kart World creates the perfect "day one" experience—within minutes, you’re racing, laughing, and passing controllers around. What I love most is its flexibility: quick pick-up-and-play sessions in handheld mode or dock it to transform it into a living-room party machine. Mario Kart World is the kind of game that everyone can enjoy—kids, casual players, and competitive friends—because it’s simple to learn yet offers plenty of depth to master. The bundle's value is fantastic, too; getting the console and a top-tier game together makes the entire purchase feel like a no-brainer.I wanted a console that’s easy to jump into and actually feels worth it the moment you open the box, and this bundle absolutely delivers.

After using it for a few months I can honestly said that I’m truly happy of buying it. Zelda looks incredible and runs perfect! (Remember that you must pay for the Switch2 upgrade). I’m amaze how good Cyberpunk looks too, I hope that they give the Witcher 3 an upgrade too, since the Switch2 is a more powerful handheld. Other than that I totally recommend you to buy one and to get ready for Metroid Prime 4!

I have had the switch 2 for a month now sofar i love it the bigger screen helps with seeing the larger sticks helps with these big hands i have the game has no lag very quick on its feet mario kart im loving just like the old 64 would recommend this system

I bought the Nintendo Switch 2 for my 8- and 10-year-old kids, and it’s been perfect for them. The best part is how easily it switches from handheld to TV mode—they play at home, take it outside, and continue right where they left off. The games, performance, and portability make it a better fit for our family than the PS5. Simple, fun, and great for young kids. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a family-friendly console.

Nintendo has done it again. They fixed a lot of the complaints from the switch 1 and made the switch 2 even better. Upload times are super fast and the bigger screen and joy con2 controllers are a great upgrade. The joy con2 ergonomically feel much better than their predecessors. Game play has been fun and enjoyable.

I dont know what i was exspecting in a S2. Maybe I got my expectations a little to high. It looks the same with a bigger screen. Some upgraded parts here and there. Overall it is more powerful from it’s predecessor graphic wise. Battery power is worse. LCD screen quality is worse. I only play docked anyways…. I think nintendo should focus on an actual home console rather than a hybrid unit. Do yourself a favour and get a screen protector. I do have fun with there games though. Just wish this key card and download code in a box thing was not happening. Overall good first party games and experience. Would have been so much happier if the Mario Kart bundle came with the actual game box rather than a download code.

Switch 2 is an upgrade in every way. No more lag from switch one games. Experience is so much better, bigger screen is nice. Disappointed in the release schedule of new games. Not many fun ones. DK got old fast. Pokémon is repetitive stimming garbage. Waiting for some real story games or at least try’s with story. It really improves switch 1 games though.

The Switch 2 with the Mario Kart World bundle is everything I hoped the next generation of Nintendo hardware would be. The system feels faster, smoother, and more refined in every way, while still keeping the simplicity and fun that made the original Switch so special. Mario Kart World is the perfect showcase title. The visuals are sharper, the performance is rock solid, and the larger tracks and expanded modes make it feel fresh without losing the classic Mario Kart charm. Whether you’re playing solo, online, or with friends on the couch, it’s pure fun from the moment you boot it up. The improved hardware really shines in both handheld and docked modes. Load times are noticeably faster, gameplay feels more responsive, and the display upgrade makes colors pop and motion look incredibly smooth. It still switches instantly between TV and handheld play, which remains one of Nintendo’s best ideas. What really stands out is how polished the experience feels. Setup is quick, the interface is clean, and everything just works. This bundle is an incredible value, you’re getting a flagship Nintendo system paired with a must-have game that shows exactly what the Switch 2 is capable of. If you’re upgrading from the original Switch or jumping into Nintendo for the first time, this bundle is a no-brainer. It’s fun, refined, and instantly feels like the future of Nintendo gaming.

Ordered the Nintendo Switch 2 from Best Buy for in-store pickup and everything went smoothly. Pickup was fast and easy, and I was in and out within minutes. The Switch 2 itself feels like a solid upgrade—better screen, faster performance, and an overall more polished feel compared to the original. Setup was quick and painless. Very happy with the purchase and the pickup experience.

Great overall improvement. Battery life is nothing spectacular, controller that comes with is garbage, and storage is low. However, system runs fast and smooth and looks great compared to switch 1

The Nintendo Switch 2 is an incredible upgrade! The graphics are absolutely stunning, the bigger screen makes gameplay more immersive, and the built-in speakers sound surprisingly good for such a small device. I personally use the docking station more than handheld, and I love that it’s backward compatible—my Nintendo Switch 1 games work seamlessly on the new system. As for Mario Kart World, I have mixed feelings. The graphics are off the hook—truly next level—but I’m not a fan of the new Battle Mode. Unlike Mario Kart 8, where you could come back with fewer balloons and keep playing until time ran out, once you lose your life here, you’re done. That said, the game still has its own strengths and is visually amazing.
