Customer Ratings & Reviews

As an owner of all the Nintendo Switch systems, this console blew all my expectations out of the water. It runs games that feel like they were made for the next generation, including Mario Kart World bundled with it. If you’re on the fence about it, I’d say personally, even as someone casually enjoying it, the quality of previous Nintendo Switch consoles is improved upon ten fold with the Nintendo Switch 2. I couldn’t imagine running many heavy hitters like Donkey Kong Bananza on those systems; well worth the investment.

The Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart bundle from Best Buy is awesome! The console is super fast, runs smooth, and the screen looks great whether you’re playing handheld or on the TV. Mario Kart is included and it’s super fun right out of the box, perfect for playing with friends and family. Totally worth the money—one of the best gaming bundles you can get!

Amazing console with a bright vibrant screen! Mario Kart World is a bunch of fun that I didn't think I would have while playing. Battery life could be better, but it's understood for this level of performance.

I have alot of fun and so many use cases for my switch 2 and I've been finding reliable handhelds that have optimized games and really good features and switch 2 is definitely the one.

Great improvement on the switch! Love the bigger screen and the visuals are awesome!

Nintendo did well on the Switch 2. Small and slim. Graphics are great.

Most fun system out right now. Perfect for if you game on the go and the new graphics + speed make it way better than the original. To me the way multiplayer works makes it great for the whole family

I bought my Switch 2 almost a month ago and this is my personal review for it. So the main reason I wanted to buy this console was the handheld aspect of it. Because a good chunk of my game time this past year has been on the go. And I wanted something with power and good games. Now I know at the time I’m doing this review there are only two big games on this console. MK world which is $80… and then the new donkey Kong. So I decided to get the MK bundle so that way it’s like I’m paying 50$ for an 80$ game. And speaking of MK….It’s a pretty good game but it does get old after a while so I would recommend getting the bundle with the game because I don’t think it’s quite worth $80. But overall I’ve been enjoying this console. So if you want a portable console with decent power and years of exclusives go for it. But if you’re not that interested in the games that are out right now I would recommend waiting another year or two for there to be more games with hopefully lower prices. This is my first review on Best Buy so hopefully I did OK. (: If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead you will be saved! :)

I had the first round of release for the original Switch and decided to upgrade to the Switch 2 when Madden released. It is so much bigger and so much faster that it’s very worth the price to me. The bundle came with the new Mario Kart which was a good incentive seeing as it only added $50 to the total as opposed to the $80 it would have normally costed. The controls are smooth and do not hold a lot of resistance. I’d recommend it to anyone who’s buying their first Switch or who is looking to upgrade. It’s worth it.

Was very happy with my items I received.This switch 2 is a lot bigger then my switch 1 everything about it is nice.I do like how the paddles go on there like a magnet as opposed to the slide like the 1.Very happy with it the included game Mario kart is very fun to play but I have not stopped playing the new Pokemon.

The price is a bit of a tough pill to swallow. However, after using it for a few days, this is a premium console/handheld for the price. The display is fantastic. The updated joy cons feel so much better. It's beefier but not in an uncomfortable way. It feels "just right". Now, looking past the hardware, I would not recommend this to someone on a fixed budget. Sure, you can use original joy cons with it but you'll soon find out, they won't be able to play all the mini games on Mario Party. And annoyingly, Mario Party locks out Mouse AND Motion mini games, without the Joy Con 2's. That's 99 dollars to get two more joy cons(L+R), but you don't get a joy con grip which is absolutely ridiculous. The grip with a charger is another 39 dollars for the branded model. You can buy just a left or right for 50. But now you gotta figure out how you're gonna charge the additional joy cons. There's third party charging stands that are a little cheaper. Oh, thinking about getting an additional dock... 130 dollars for it. And you can't use just any USB charger on the dock, it must be the Nintendo branded as there's a chip inside both the charger and the dock that must communicate with each other. Honestly, this is Apple tier BS. If you wanna bring great gaming and hardware to the masses, don't price out a significant amount of your base. The other problem I have is the eshop is not the value proposition such as a PC store front. When games are costing up to 18% of the console price, it's hard to recommend to a family who might be on a tight budget. It's going to be difficult for Nintendo to compete in a handheld market that is now fully over saturated with premium handhelds that have access to cheaper PC store fronts. Overall, can't recommend. Unless your kid is specifically asking for Nintendo exclusive games, your money would be better spent on a pc handheld with access to cheap libraries. You can get so much more for the same cost and your kid will have more games than they'll know what to do with. Or get this, two joy cons, and 3 first party titles and you'll be into this thing for 800+ dollars.

Although the switch 2 library is limited I'm more concerned about the performance of the console. It's quick to load screens that took forever on the switch OLED. Games from the original switch play like a dream with the increased performance upgrades. Switch 2 games look incredible in docked mode but seem to struggled at times undocked.

Love the Nintendo Switch 2! Love the screen size and connection to play on the tv as well! Keep up the good work!

Great pickup experience and, with high demand items, Best Buy has had the most solid system with their variety of bundles! I have a PS5 and Switch 2 both thanks to them. The Switch 2 itself is a wonderful upgrade and fixes the frustrating frame rate and graphical issues with games like Xenoblade 3, Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, and Pokemon Legends: Arceus. The free upgrades to Switch 1 games is a very nice perk. The kickstand is much more comfortable, the battery life is improved, and the charging port on both top and bottom is a wonderfully needed correction.

I really love this over the Switch 1 performance and quality wise. The bigger console is nicer for my hands and my family’s especially. The Switch 2’s performance is great like how it now supports 120fps on games and the improvement of the graphics.

The console performs very well! Graphics are a major improvement, but at the cost of the battery life being noticeably shorter.

My so loved it, great graphics and smooth gameplay.

I had a very easy & efficient purchase with best buy. I gave it some time to review & honestly it is worth upgrading from the original switch. The redesign in details is what makes me like the switch so much more. It comes with 2 holders & 1 controller already. There’s not really a need to buy anything else unless you want the camera which seems to be very fun if you have games that offer it.

Very sleek system with a beautiful screen. I appreciate the higher frame rates and 4k support the most!

The Nintendo Switch 2 builds on the beloved hybrid gaming formula of the original Switch but brings meaningful upgrades in performance, visuals, and features. It’s designed to appeal to both longtime Nintendo fans and new players alike — delivering handheld flexibility and enhanced home-console power.
