Customer Ratings & Reviews

Upgraded from an original Switch and the performance change is very noticeable. Sure, it's not OLED but the screen still looks very nice. I personally think it's worth it.

Coming from a Switch OLED, I am super happy with the new console. The upgraded graphics are great, and the bigger screen size is extremely welcomed. My only small gripe is that it’s uncomfortable to hold after an hour, but when that happens it’s off to docked mode!

I’ve had nothing but fun with the Switch 2 and it’s only gonna get better as more games roll out. It’s a massive upgrade from the og switch and I would definitely recommend the console to anyone who likes nintendo games or wants a quality handheld console.

I love everything about this console. More powerful than the previous switch. However, it means that your battery only lasy up to 4 hours or less when youre playing Mario Kart World. That's my only gripe. Battery. Otherwise, love the updated graphics for previous games, backwards compatiblity, and that I can connect my previous switch controllers to the current console. See you on the road in Mario Kart World!

Basically it's exactly what everyone was looking for. A better performing Switch. It feels amazing being able to play my Switch games at 60 fps. That alone is worth every penny imo.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is an amazing console! Every game feels smooth and the screen is gorgeous. DK Bananza is the stand out title!

I bought Switch 2 for my son. He plays Assassin’s Creed and Minecraft it works great, no lag, and the screen looks really nice. Sometimes I take it at night to play GTA. We both love it. Totally worth it!

Super stoked that I was able to get my hands on one of these. I wasn't huge into nintendo since the N64 back in the day, so the fact that there's a whole library of N64 titles available right out of the box (with online subscription) is INCREDIBLE!! Playing through ocarina of time on a modern television with a massively upgraded visual fidelity has been an experience unlike any other, and that alone was worth the 5 stars. The handheld mode feels sturdy and well made, performance and battery life are great, and it's effortless to connect to the screen. Highly recommend - BUT MAKE SURE YOU GET A SCREEN PROTECTOR - I scratched mine almost immediately and I'm regretting not spending the extra cash to ensure the screen was safeguarded

After using a Switch 2 for a few weeks now, I'm going to say that it is a good investment IF you are someone who has a back catalog of Switch games that you would like to use. For the most part, the launch titles are somewhat lackluster. Sure, there's Mario Kart, and it has some fun moments to it, but I have found myself revisiting the games that have updates. There are a few, such as the Breath of the Wild Zelda games that have an extra charge to update them (or for free if you have the online service); they run fantastic on the Switch 2. Games such as Splatoon 3 really shine on the new hardware after the update. The only launch title I'd say worth picking up is Bravely Default (if you are a JRPG fan). Overall the system feels very polished. It is larger than the switch and the magnetic interface that is used to keep the joycon attached feels good. So far, my only complaint is the storage capacity. Even with cartridges, the system storage fills up quick. Do yourself a favor and pick up a SD card (make sure you select the correct format; SD Express!) soon, if you choose to get the console.

This is an excellent upgrade that honestly should've been released 2 years ago. Backward compatibility in my use case has been excellent, with minimal hiccups and increased performance in most cases. Maintaining compatibility with the Switch allows folks upgrading to have their (almost) entire library to use while the new titles are developed and released.

This new Switch 2 is probably Nintendo's AR/VR console and the reviews have been good before the next last usual consoles that are not AR/VR with graphics that can run everything during the end of the next console cycle with Nintendo and other using more devices than consoles/graphics cards, that add gameplay, and will be about new gameplay and probably compatible with other ar/vr hybrids and vr mainstream electronics. I't better together it before certain sell-out IPs are launched next year.

Beautiful screen and nice improvements over orginal switch! Makes me feel that this is what the Wii-U should have been...

This product is near perfect, as an evolution it fixes and perfects many of the flaws and ideas the original switch had. Furthermore it has top tier exclusives that are already clearing what the competition is offering. This console is one for the ages and it'll be worth it for the next 8 years of its life.

I’ve been having so much fun with this new system! The only downside would be the short battery life in handheld, but other than that it is a giant improvement over the switch 1 in almost every way.

An OUTSTANDING successor to the Switch 1! Running games at 60FPS in 4k is a breath of fresh air for the classic Nintendo console that it desperately needed! Launch games such as Super Mario Kart World, Cyberpunk 2077, and Split Fiction truly shine and show off just what the Switch 2 is capable of! April Switch 1 titles such as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild/ Tears of The Kingdom, Super Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 3, and more have recieved Switch 2 upgrades that give them a whole new life with higher resolutions and enhanced performance! The Switch 2 is the console i have been waiting for!

This is amazing for the price plays every game in great fps. Love taking Ns2 on the go and playing everywhere. I would recommend for everyone.

Not enough new games for it yet, but it runs switch 1 rpgs like butter, worth for those games that were barable on the switch 1, but not worth if you have a switch oled imo

Glad to finally get the new switch! I know that there are mixed reviews on this but I love it! A bit heavier than the previous model but it does have a bigger screen and better graphics. Worth every penny.

The Nintendo Switch 2 feels like the natural next step for Nintendo’s hybrid console, blending the charm of the original with some much-needed upgrades that make gaming smoother, sharper, and more comfortable. The bigger screen and faster processor make games look and run better, while the redesigned Joy-Con 2 controllers snap on magnetically, feel sturdier in the hand, and finally address some comfort issues from the first generation. Backwards compatibility means your old library still works—often with noticeable improvements—and new features like built-in GameChat and the clever Mouse Mode add fresh ways to play and connect. The Pro Controller 2 is another highlight, with better grips and refined buttons that make longer sessions easier. Docked play now delivers clearer visuals on a TV, and while handheld mode is a bit bulkier, it benefits from a larger and crisper display. The trade-offs are that it’s more expensive than before, still not using OLED tech, and has some concerns around repairability, but overall, the Switch 2 feels like a strong refinement rather than a revolution, a console that doubles down on what made the original so special while adding just enough power and polish to keep it competitive in 2025.

My kid just had eye surgery and this was the present he received for his bravery. He loves it and plays it everyday especially during his recovery. The graphics are solid and it’s fast. Highly recommended.
