Customer Ratings & Reviews

Runs much better than the switch 1. I love the bigger screen. Only issue is storage, but this can be rememdied with extra storage that you have to buy separately

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.

Bigger screen, more power, better game quality. The Switch 2 checks all of those boxes that Switch 1 owners had. I'm 20 hours into Cyberpunk 2077 and having a blast. 100% satisfied with the purchase. 4 stars are ONLY due to battery life during demanding games (it was to be expected). But overall an amazing console and even better handheld. Buy one as soon as you're able to! (Retail)

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.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is everything I hoped for and more. The graphics are sharper, load times are faster, and the battery life is noticeably improved. The new screen is vibrant and smooth whether playing handheld or docked. Pairing it with Mario Kart World was the perfect choice, it’s fast, colorful, and great for family game nights. Setup was quick, the controls feel solid, and the performance is flawless so far. If you loved the first Switch, this upgrade is 100% worth it.

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!

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.

Great product. The Nintendo Switch 2 is awesome—runs super smooth, graphics look great, and it’s really fun to play whether I’m at home or on the go. Totally worth it.

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.

I’ve had this Switch 2 for a month now and it has been so much fun to go back to gaming basics. Pokemon ZA Legends is so much fun and smooth on the Switch 2. I wish I would have bought it sooner. The only bad thing about it is that the battery lasts 2-3 hours on a full charge.

Such an awesome new console. Has way better graphics vs the old switch and the new games are great.

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.

The switch 2 is just a better performing switch 1 (the obvoius i know) if you got an oled or og just stick with that most games at the time of review don't take advantage of the better specs anyway. The weight of the console undocked doesn't sound like a problem until you realise how unergonomic it is the weight makes it harder to keep steady especially on car rides, which admittedly is just a minor annyonce until your aiming in any game.(seriously why not add a slight bump or some texture to the joycons it shouldn't cost much more.) So in short bigger more powerful switch they really should have done more with the exterior.

A clear upgrade over the original Nintendo Switch in nearly every way. Far better performance, great build quality (the system feels great to play in handheld mode), and most Switch games work through backwards compatibility in addition to the growing library of Switch 2 games. My only disappointment is that the battery life is a little lacking, but it's still good enough in most cases.

Huge upgrade with better performance, faster loading, and improved graphics while keeping the fun portable experience.

An excellent piece of hardware. It runs everything faster and better than its predecessor. The resolution is sharper and the animation is so much better! It finally has adequate onboard storage. Smash brothers is glorious on this machine. I hesitate to buy this for my younger children. We each had our own Switch OLED system, but this one doesn't seem like it can handle any clumsiness on the go. It's fine in the dock or on the table - but it's bigger and thinner, and I don't think it will handle drops or flexes as well as the original Switch. At this new price-point, I won't be buying one for every member of the family regardless, but I'm satisfied with this single unit in the family room. It's loads of fun.

Very happy with added performance. Was worth waiting to start and finish TOTK. The bigger screen size is nice but something like Dbrand’s Killswitch makes it much more comfortable to game on. The screen feels pretty nice considering the overall package and honestly I play docked on an OLED screen most of the time away. Considering the price of stuff like the ROG XBOX Ally, the price to performance feels pretty good to me

Upgraded performance from original version, larger screen is nice.

The Switch 2 is a massive upgrade from the original. Load times are lightning-fast, visuals are crisp on both handheld and docked modes, and Mario Kart World is a blast right out of the box. The new Joy-Cons feel sturdier with better button feedback, and the performance boost is obvious during gameplay—no lag, smooth 60 fps. Battery life could be better during extended sessions, but it's a small trade-off for everything else you get. This bundle is a great value for anyone jumping into the Nintendo ecosystem or upgrading from a previous model. Highly recommend!

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.
