Customer Ratings & Reviews

Been dying to play more Mario games. Had a Switch originally but waited to see what the next generation would offer. The Switch 2 has been great. Love the bigger screen and easy to detach joy-cons. Great investment!

It’s a Nintendo Switch with better performance, a bigger screen, a better kickstand, a better Joy-Con mechanism, 4K HDR docked support, and some neat additional features I haven’t tried yet. I’ve really appreciated the upgraded performance and graphics on many original Switch games, in particular, Pokémon Scarlet and Echoes of Wisdom, two games I avoided or stopped playing on the original due to performance. Also hoping more games support GameShare, really nice if you also still have an original Switch for some games. But also, Mario Kart World is a lot of fun, and I’m looking forward to playing Donkey Kong Bananza. With that said, I think this system might be slightly less kid friendly as a handheld portable console than the original and Lite just due to its size and weight, but the bigger Joy-Cons I think are a better improvement for everyone.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a major upgrade from the previous system. It offers smoother performance, impressive graphics, and a bright, vibrant screen that makes handheld gaming feel more immersive. The improved display and overall experience make it a great choice for both casual and longtime Nintendo fans.

Switching from the original to the 2 and my daughter loves the 2. The screen is larger and the graphics are more defined. System runs amootj and is still easy to hold. Interesting docking station design but still compact and even blends in nicely.

I was skeptical at first from what i read online. But when i was able to play my Pokémon games from switch oled. The games were running smoother and much faster. The bigger screen also helps with my eye strain as i can see much easier. Honestly if you want something to take around i suggest this.

I definitely was waiting to buy a Switch 2 until I felt I needed it as I am a huge Pokémon fan, and the games are now only going to be on the Switch 2. Anyways, this was totally worth it. It is so much lighter than my original Switch, and the graphics and bigger screen are phenomenal. I always used my Switch Lite as my Switch was too heavy for my small hands but the Switch 2 is a great upgrade and worth it!

Did I wait for over an hour on the release day? (It wasn't that bad.) Yes. Was it worth it to see the surprise on my 14-year-old's face when they saw it the next day? Yes. Graphics are great, crisp, clear and vibrant. The increased screen size is a win. The bigger screen does not make the console feel bulky, so that is a win. The new Mario Kart game has converted my wife, who is not a video game enthusiast, into a fan. So I would call it a win. If you can get your hands on a console, do it. You will not regret it.

I love the size and the performance it packs for its slim design. If you have a Switch games library there is very little reason to not pick this up. Games are backwards compatible and run better. Also docking to the tv is simple and looks great. The one thing that falls a little short is battery life for newer titles. I wouldnt mind Nintendo adding a ‘battery mode’ that reduces power and allows games to run at a lower performance to increase battery life. Other than that I’d recommend this to anyone!

Really huge quality jump from the original switch. Controllers feel a lot more solid and much faster than the old system. Even having the 4k capability on the tv is great. Even if you don’t have any games you want on the switch 2 yet it is worth for just the faster tech. I wish the OLED screen was there but I’m sure it’s coming in the future. Be warned you do have to get a new type of memory card as the standard micro sd won’t work

The Nintendo Switch is a fun and easy-to-use gaming system. I like that you can play it on the TV or take it with you anywhere. The games look great, and there are many options for all ages. The controllers are comfortable, and the battery life is decent. It’s a good console for both solo play and family time. Overall, I’m very happy with it and would recommend it.

Although I already have a Nintendo OLED Switch model, I couldn’t pass up the chance to own the new Nintendo 2 model so that I could play my two latest Zelda games with the best visuals. It’s the most fun way for this 74 year-old retiree to keep up on her hand-eye coordination. The only thing I wish is that the battery lasted longer when off the stand.

I recently upgraded to the Nintendo Switch 2, and I can honestly say it’s exceeded my expectations in almost every way. The performance boost is immediately noticeable—games load faster, run smoother, and the graphics look significantly sharper both in handheld and docked mode. It feels like a true next-gen upgrade without losing what made the original Switch great. One of my favorite improvements is the battery life. I can play for much longer sessions without worrying about constantly charging, which makes it perfect for travel or just relaxing on the couch. The new display is also a big step up—colors are more vibrant, and everything looks crisp and clean. The backward compatibility is a huge win too. Being able to jump right into my existing game library without issues made the transition seamless. Plus, the updated Joy-Cons feel more responsive and comfortable, especially during longer gaming sessions. Overall, the Nintendo Switch 2 is a fantastic upgrade for both longtime Nintendo fans and newcomers. It keeps the versatility of playing anywhere while delivering a much more powerful and refined experience. Definitely worth it.

Bought this for my girlfriend for her birthday. She's a casual gamer who likes to play on the couch or in bed. This little console is perfect for her. She loves the display and the new design of controllers. Since buying it, she's played Animal Crossing every night or every other night. Just have to buy her more games. The only issue is the storage capacity, but that's expected given the size of the console.

Great performance and sleek design. I enjoy mine. Non OLED screen is easier on the eyes as well. Fun for Animal Crossing and Zelda and they are adding many more games in the future.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a remarkable leap forward from its predecessor, setting a new benchmark for hybrid gaming consoles. One of the most noticeable upgrades is the overall system functionality. From boot-up to gameplay, the interface operates with impressive smoothness and responsiveness. Menus load faster, transitions are seamless, and games benefit from significantly reduced load times, creating a more fluid and immersive user experience. The Switch 2 feels far more optimized and modern than the original Nintendo Switch. Another standout feature is the stunning new display. The larger screen size enhances visibility and transforms how games are experienced on the go. Colors are richer, and the higher resolution makes visuals pop with greater clarity and detail. This isn’t just an incremental update — the bigger screen makes the Switch 2 feel like an entirely new console, elevating handheld gaming to a premium level. The redesigned Joy-Cons are also worth praising. Ergonomically improved, they offer a more comfortable grip and enhanced button responsiveness. Whether playing solo or sharing with a friend, the Joy-Cons feel more intuitive and reliable. Nintendo has listened to user feedback and refined the design to deliver a more satisfying gameplay experience. Overall, the Nintendo Switch 2 is a significant success. With smoother performance, a significantly enhanced display, and much-improved Joy-Cons, it’s a must-have upgrade for longtime fans and new players.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a strong upgrade that improves performance, visuals, and overall smoothness while keeping the same hybrid design. Games run faster and look better, especially older titles thanks to backward compatibility. The hardware feels more refined with a better screen, audio, and controls. Overall, it’s a great evolution of the original, even if it doesn’t completely reinvent the experience.

Def worth the buy! This device feels more premium than the previous switch. I love the snap on joy cons and I love how big the screen is! Performance is great. I love getting 60fps in handheld mode for most games. The only downfall is how long the battery lasts but ofc its due the bigger screen, 60fps, and HDR. Make sure to keep an external battery pack handy or near a wall outlet. Agaib, its def a great buy!

I love to bigger screen and the magnetic controllers. Wish the battery life last the same as the Nintendo switch oled or longer. But otherwise great product

The Switch 2 is a huge step up from the original. The screen looks incredible, the performance is much smoother, and the new battery life is impressive. Portable and home gaming finally feel equally strong. Totally worth the upgrade.

Enjoy it very much and the exclusive games that are on Nintendo. The battery life is fair with around 4-5 hours of playtime depending on what game you’re currently playing. A bit bigger compared to the first Switch and was probably my main gripe was that it’s too heavy for my liking after playing for awhile. The first Switch felt like a handheld while this just feels like I’m holding a brick.
