    Buying the Nintendo Switch 2 for my son’s 10th birthday turned into an unforgettable experience thanks to Best Buy. These consoles were impossible to find — none in stock at Target, Nintendo.com, Best Buy online, or anywhere else. I stopped by my local Best Buy just to check availability, fully expecting to be told the same thing. At first, that was the case… until the associate went the extra mile. They took a moment to think through all the possibilities and realized that someone had returned a Switch 2 just five minutes earlier after buying two when they first launched. Because of their attention and willingness to dig a little deeper instead of simply sending me on my way, I was able to purchase it on the spot. My son was beyond excited on his birthday, and I’m incredibly grateful for the associate who cared enough to look beyond the obvious and make it happen. They made me look like a hero to my son. That level of customer service is rare and deserves recognition. Way to go, Best Buy! You absolutely made our day.

    I bought the Nintendo Switch 2 in-store and I’m extremely satisfied with my purchase. The console works perfectly, the graphics are great, and the performance is smooth. Setup was quick and easy, and everything was included as expected. It’s a great upgrade and definitely worth it. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and versatile gaming console.

    The Switch 2 feels like a completely different platfom than the Switch. It works so much more flawlessly than the first one. The Best Buy that I purchased my console from was extremely helpful, and made my trip to Best Buy verysmooth!

    Great system and replacement for my gen 1 switch. Games run so much smoother and graphics have a decent jump from before. Wish battery life was longer but keeping a portable charger handy helps.

    Works great, can run new titles much smoother. If you can afford and are thinking about the upgrade it wouldn’t hurt to get it now despite the switch 2 not having many exclusives

    I had waned away from my Switch 1 awhile ago, but picking up the Switch 2 has reignited my want to play on the platform. Having many games that are getting upgrades on Switch 2 to run better, and the incremental upgrades that Nintendo did to the Switch 2 from the Switch 1 lead to this being a great console. And, it gets even better since Microsoft increased the price of the Series S to be the same as this bundle! If you want a great way to play a large library of great games, I’d take the Switch 2 over the Series S any day of the week.

    Obviously, this is $450 but once you get over that, it's just everything you loved about the switch polished and upgraded in everyway. The UI is silky smooth, as is the eShop experience. It feels like how the original wanted to be but didn't have the horsepower to do it well. Upgraded games like Super Mario Odyssey look absolutely incredible and move at 60 FPS, no sweat. The build quality is miles better, the joycons so far with no drift and the magnetic clasps are amazing. No more lining up the pins just right to get the joycons to slot correctly. Screen is beautiful, large and colorful. I'm so excited to have this in my hands.

    What the Switch 1 Should've Been

    I was disappointed that the game didn't come as a paper code or in a box of its own; it's installed on the console itself, so DON'T buy the bundle if you're planning on selling the game! But other than that, I'm looking forward to playing Switch 1 games with better performance; these are the kind of specs I'm looking for in a handheld system like this. I will say the Joycons feel a bit wobbly when they're on the sides, but they're definitely secure. Don't really think the mouse functionality is useful but it's a neat gimic. I just hope there's no stick drift over time with the controllers... but we'll see.
