Customer Ratings & Reviews

Use this all the time. Its exactly how the original switch should have been. Only downside is the mediocre initial storage, but can easily add micro SD express storage.

Easily one of my favorite gaming consoles yet Bringing the nostalgia of simple, intuitive Nintendo controls to portable gaming. The amount of fun I've been able to have with friends and family has been great. Games play smoothly out of the dock and the graphical presentation on an OLED monitor is stunning. The system itself is sturdy and has classy presentational look about it that won't look akward in a living room setup. Has been a great way to pass the time on my work commutes on the train. If you can get one, which was a painless process on the Best Buy app, I can't recommend it enough.

A worthy upgrade to the original Nintendo Switch. Bigger screen, better resolution, still has excellent battery life - and the Joycons are a bit bigger and it makes a difference! (Even though I’ll probably still buy a grip attachment) I’ve had the Nintendo Switch 2 for a little over a week and playing games on it has to be experienced because words can’t express how amazing Pokemon Violet feels at a smooth 60FPS… words can’t express the resolution bump and FPS bump Mario Odyssey (already perfect game) experience in this transition. And there are plenty others that’ve taken advantage of the Switch 2’s extra horsepower. The Nintendo Switch 2 is worth the upgrade. Thank you Nintendo. I look forward to another wonderful 7 years of gaming greatness.

I became a switch person during the pandemic, playing Animal Crossing for 200+ hours. The new switch 2 has great graphics & a larger screen. It plays all of the original games & updates are less than $10 for games you love to be a little more crisp.

Love the switch 2. Our son loves it and it works a lot better than switch 1. Graphics are a lot better and we like the bigger design.

Beautiful new design!! The controllers are meatier, and the screen on the handheld device is crisp, clear, and larger. Transferring data was seemless and Mario Kart is so much more fun with multiple options, creative designs, and character choices.

Should probably be 3 stars but I’ll give it 4 because I never had the original Switch. Not sure this is worth it for people who have Switch 1. It should really be called a Switch Pro since it is essentially the same console as the previous model with some marginal upgrades. It now has the power of a PS4 so I guess that’s good. Overall it’s fun, and nice for kids but I’m finding the game selection to be pretty bad and basically right now we just have a bunch of Switch 1 titles along with the new Mario Kart. This console is very underwhelming and they took streaming apps away. Unreal. Nintendo has gone downhill. I also don’t like joy cons. They charge $100 for those things WITHOUT the connector dock. You have to spend so much for accessories. I prefer the pro controller but it’s also like $90. How that controller costs more than a dualsense is mind boggling.one more negative that in handheld mode the thing is just too heavy. That’s coming from an adult. For a kid it’s just too much to hold. My kids use it more on the tv or tabletop.

I remember buying a Switch lite back in 2021, and I ended up returning it. I was disappointed in a lot of things - the system wasn't very powerful, the default storage ran out quickly, and it wasn't very ergonomic. The culmination of all of these flaws meant it didn't really feel like a console - it felt like a toy. I guess that's a silly distinction to make for devices meant for playing video games, but it's how I felt. The Switch 2 doesn't feel like that at all. It's pretty impressive how it keeps all of the things that worked about the Switch 1, just in a more powerful, appealing package. The kickstand is solid and versatile, instead of flimsy and weak. The screen is a beautiful, 1080p at a size that makes it shine. The new controllers aren't perfectly ergonomic, but they're a huge step up from the gen 1 Joy-Cons. It feels very comparable, and even better in a few ways to my Steam Deck, which is a huge accomplishment. My main reason for knocking off a star is that I don't think there's a huge reason to get one now, especially if you already own a Switch 1. The only real exclusive experience is has right now is Mario Kart, which is great, but probably not worth $500 on it's own. I think for most people, I would say to wait a few months. Give the developers time to made ports and Switch 2 upgrade packs, see what Nintendo reveals in the next direct.

Amazing console with excellent battery life! I’ve been using the Switch 2 for about 2 months now and enjoy how light weight, versatile, and fast this console is. I’ve played Mario Kart, Fortnite, and Hades 2 and each game has run flawlessly and smooth! What’s truly lacking is more Switch 2 titles, which Nintendo has been really slow to release - Pokemon isn’t available until mid-Oct and Meteor Prime doesn’t come out until the end of the year.

The technology and graphics on the Switch 2 is amazing. The screen size is perfect. Easy to use and I love the way the controller it comes allows 2 players.

This bundle delivers incredible value and entertainment right out of the box. The Nintendo Switch 2 runs smoothly with impressive visuals and fast load times, making both handheld and docked play equally enjoyable. Including Mario Kart World is a huge bonus—it’s an engaging, family-friendly game that’s easy to jump into but challenging enough to stay exciting. Setup was straightforward, and everything worked flawlessly. This is an excellent choice for families, casual gamers, or anyone looking to upgrade their gaming experience.

The Nintendo Switch 2 has been such a great addition to our home! Me and the kiddos absolutely love it—it’s one of our favorite ways to bond and spend quality time together. Whether we’re playing Mario Kart, co-op adventures, or just switching up games, there’s always something fun for everyone. The graphics and performance are a big step up from the original, and the versatility between handheld and TV mode is perfect for our busy family life. It’s more than just a gaming console—it’s become part of our family routine. Highly recommend for families looking to connect and have fun together!

The upgrade from the Switch 1 to the Switch 2 is quite noticeable. The screen, the looks the size all feel and looks good. Im addicted to the Switch. The only thing I would say needs to improve is battery life. Outside of that its the perfectl system.

Best portable game handheld console I ever owned. I love my switch 2. Graphics are great, screen is awesome and overall I'm very very satisfied with this.

Needs more games but the upgrade from the switch 1 to this is noticeable. It’s worth getting this for Donkey Kong. Might not be OLED but all of the other improvements make up for it

This is a HUGE upgrade from the original Switch! The game performance is smoother, the screen is bigger, and the overall quality is on another level. Playing on the Switch 2 is way more fun. Best purchase I’ve made. No regrets at all!

Device was in proper working order. Received it undamaged. Got a good sale on the switch, which included the Mario kart game for the base price of the switch. Is much larger than I was expecting it to be, but not a bad thing. Currently still working fine after two weeks.

First! Price range isnt the best but its okay i believe it is worth getting, I don't write alot of reviews so here I go, this Console feels nothing new to the switch 1 BUT worth the upgrade... the new Joy cons has grown on me i love them alot way better than the first gens. I have bought a few games Zelda Tears of the Kingdom and Donkey kong Bananaza runs smooth no frame drops, loading is so much better and faster and those game looks great! Battery life is okay I ran about maybe 2-5 hours worth of battery but really depends what you are playing. Also the dock has a ethernet port and two usb. Also the switch do be running 4k when its dock of course and it is backwards compatible with you old games from the switch 1, overall it is worth it, i almost went for the ps5 but glad I didnt since i own a PC so getting the Switch 2 made more sense for me also nintendo exclusives cant go wrong, i recommend buying this switch 2 if you're interested in buying one.

Im a light gamer who plays short games often. But i enjoy playing single player games including Zelda (botw & totk) when i have time for myself. The switch 2 is a great option to upgrade from switch lite which i used to play for a while (since 2019) i give it some time till the new games come out, and its best console for playing backwards compatible games. Other than the pricetag, i have no complaints on switch 2. I play cyberpunk on handheld and i love the mouse control option. I would recommend to someone who never owned a switch and plan to get a handheld that can play classic nintendo games (nintendo online sold separately)

This console is a great value at its current price. The graphics are impressive for something you can play on the go, and it just has a lot of flexibility. You can play on your TV traditionally, play it anywhere in handheld mode, and it’s even sort of a Wii with the motion controls some games use. Been having tons of fun since I bought this.
