Customer Ratings & Reviews

We got the Swicth 2 at midnight release. It is a great console, following up to the first one, and while the display is not as good as the OLED model, it makes up for in size, better joy cons and capacity. We have a blast evrytime we play it, and that's what I like about the Switch 2: Everyone can play it, you can use it handheld or docked and it's easy to use.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is the upgrade we've all been asking for and it's finally here. The ergonomics for larger hands are significantly better than its predecessor. The color scheme is quite tame, but the build quality overall is much more refined and doesn't feel like a cheaper toy. Nintendo did it right this time around. The display leaves me wanting to play Nintendo releases in handheld as if they're optimized more for the console and not the TV, which is shocking because before I felt it was the other way around. It runs really well on our LG 4K OLED with HDR. My favorite part is the screen size and the joy cons. The joy cons just feel so much better. Buttons aren't loose, everything's firm, it feels premier. We haven't experienced any issues with the console since release and expect to run this thing into the ground for the next decade. If you are on the fence and have an original Nintendo Switch, I'd say it's a great investment. I would trade in you console and pick one of these up to continue the journey with Nintendo's NS2 specific releases. If you have an NS OLED, that would be harder for me, but I came from the OLED and it feels like a noticeable upgrade. I do not miss my OLED at all as this console feels like jumping from a Gamecube and playing an Xbox Series X. Nintendo nailed it. Mario Kart World, it's tons of fun. It's just a racing game, so it's not like it's a massive title like Super Mario Odyssey or Donkey Kong Bananza, but it's worth having in the collection since we all play Mario Kart. Loads of fun and collectibles

The Nintendo Switch 2 has amazing build quality (minus the protective film causing me very light scratches :c) especially when compared to the original Nintendo Switch. This gives me the same premium feeling I had when I first got my PS Vita near launch. Revisiting older titles like Batman Arkham Knight has really impressed me as well considering the game ran horribly on Switch 1. On Switch 2 it runs perfectly at a capped 30 FPS but still looks less than stellar because y'know still a Switch 1 port of a PS4 game lol. Mario Kart World is amazing and the perfect switch up from the standard Mario Kart release It might be my favorite in the entire franchise honestly. All in a;; the Switch 2 is definitely a worthy upgrade from the original Nintendo Switch system and I just bought a screen protector that will hopefully cover up those micro scratches.

Love the switch 2 - got it for my boyfriend and son for the holidays. The screen is a lot bigger. Graphics are great. We had the 1st, but wanted to upgrade and we're all happy that we did. :)

★★★★★ (5/5) The Nintendo Switch 2 is a fantastic upgrade. Games run smoother, load faster, and look noticeably better both handheld and docked. The improved display and stronger performance really make a difference. Battery life feels better than my original Switch, and the new Joy-Cons are more comfortable and responsive. Setup and data transfer were quick and easy, too. If you’re upgrading or buying your first Switch, this one is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!

Magnificent video game console. It already comes with the first game. It is also bigger than the previous version. I highly recommend it for you to buy it.

This switch is definitely bigger then the others . It has a great display , and it’s working great so far. Games seem like they won’t take the long to download which is great for me .

Amazing purchase. Haven’t played it much but so far it’s a huge improvement over the switch 1 and Oled. Very fast controls are nice, and looks amazing on screen !

This is my first Switch and I love it. Easy to use, smooth performance, and I really like being able to play handheld or on the TV. Games look great and load fast. Very happy with my purchase!

Good console, fun game, decent price for what it is! The new screen is bigger & the graphics are very good as well. I like how the controllers are magnetic & have a button you press to pull them off (so they don’t just fall off) instead of the slide on the original switch, overall good purchase, very fun for family game night!

The Switch 2 is a big step up from the original. I'm coming from the OLED as well, and the Switch 2's screen definitely holds up. I'm playing Assassin's Creed Shadows and Dark Souls on the go, plus Nintendo's countless classics. The cost of first party games sting, and the current lack of Switch 2 exclusives stings just as much. But hopefully time will fix the latter as new games come out. The Mario Kart World bundle is a no-brainer.

Well made and i haven’t had any problems with it. The joycon magnets definitely make it feel more solid than the Switch. I can play off the dock for a couple of hours before I have to recharge it. The screen size is much easier on the eyes. I’ve only played 2 exclusive Switch 2 titles so far: Mario Kart World and DK Bananza. I can’t say that it has blown my socks off, performace wise, but I do notice better performance.

Bought it to play the new Mario Kart World, as well as play Tears of the Kingdom and Breath of the Wild at a higher framerate/resolution. Plays games flawlessly and everything feels very premium. My only downsides are the screen (It ghosts a very small bit but is not a dealbreaker.) and the battery life (It doesn’t last a long time, but comparable to launch Switch 1 as well as pc handhelds like the Asus Rog Ally and the Steam Deck.)

Great system! Love the big screen and looks far btter than my ally x. Only thing I am not a fan of if you dont have a grip case, it is a little awkard to hold and hands get tired.

Long overdue upgrade to the Nintendo Switch! Some say it's too expensive. But considering how the original Switch was around for nearly a decade, I'd say it's a pretty good deal if you break it down to a year-by-year cost! While the new system doesn't break a whole lot of new ground, aside from the mouse controls that might be used by some games, the upgrades keep Nintendo up to date with the most essential new TV and video game graphics technology. Playing more advanced games on the go, with a larger and much-improved screen from the original Switch is great. I also love that it's backward compatible with games and controllers from the original Switch! I suddenly have a great four-player setup thanks to the ability to use my old Joy-Cons. The bundled Mario Kart World is a perfect escape from today's reality. There's so much going on in each course, it's like playing an amusement park ride. Of course, the real test will be how good the games not yet released will be. So far indications are good we'll have some winners. I'm looking forward to Donkey Kong Bananza and Metroid Prime 4, among others. Nintendo's got a good track record, so fans of their games likely have nothing to worry about.

The Nintendo Switch 2 isn’t a radical reinvention, but it’s the kind of steady, smart upgrade longtime fans were waiting for. From improved visuals to expanded storage and refined controls, it feels like a more polished, future-proofed version of the original hybrid console. **Display & Visuals** The biggest everyday difference comes from the new OLED+ screen. Games look crisper, colors pop more vibrantly, and there’s noticeably less motion blur in fast-paced titles. Whether docked or handheld, the Switch 2 pushes higher resolutions and smoother frame rates, especially with first-party games optimized for the new hardware. **Storage & Performance** Nintendo finally addressed one of the original Switch’s biggest pain points: storage. With a default 256GB internal memory, most players won’t immediately feel forced to buy a microSD card. Load times are quicker, thanks to both the upgraded processor and faster internal memory, making switching between games and apps feel much snappier. **Battery & Build** Battery life holds up surprisingly well, considering the performance jump. On average, I got around 5–6 hours playing games like Tears of the Kingdom. The console feels sturdier too—joy-con drift hasn’t been an issue so far, and the new magnetic kickstand is genuinely useful. **Final Thoughts** If you already have a Switch OLED and mostly play docked, this may feel like a minor step up. But for handheld-first players or those still using the launch model, Switch 2 feels like what the original Switch always wanted to be: better picture, better storage, better overall.

it’s only been a bit over a week since release and i find the NS2 to be really nice. all of the switch games that might have run a little funny (like certain parts in the newest zeldas) run beautifully on this even if you don’t get the game upgrade. the screen is bigger and brighter and the joycons are much sturdier feeling. i have no complaints and i don’t expect to have any for a while, if at all. if you like the switch - this one is def a good upgrade.

The Nintendo Switch 2 bundle with Mario Kart World is a no-brainer pickup for anyone looking to buy both. The bundle comes with everything plus a digital download code and is very worth priced. The game is super fun and actually really well made. The console is a good upgrade tech wise and is well made in quality. While the graphics may not be a PS5 or Xbox Series quality, the handheld is super impressive for being not that big and with backwards compatibility, makes a good pickup. The console is impressive for the size, and compared to others on the market, portability is appreciated and therefore justified the price for me. Overall, i would recommend this console to people who are fans and need it. If you dont want it now, a price drop or sale would justify a pickup later on if you don't plan on purchasing now.

I traded in my OLED Switch and upgraded to the Switch 2. It was definitely worth it! I love the larger screen and the magnetic joy-con. The battery life could be better, but overall, worth the upgrade

X-mas gift for my son. He loved it! The graphics and the size are so much nicer than the original lots of upgrades and easy to transfer information from the original version to the new version.
