Customer Ratings & Reviews

We enjoy the Switch at home, on the go, everywhere. The games that Nintendo offers are unique and fun compared to core gaming platforms that are dedicated for certain age groups. Glad we got this console, hours of entertainment, hard to put it down!

Easy to play, love the choices of games. Wish the controllers were just a little bigger.

I love the Nintendo switch it’s fun to play and the games are fun and entertaining. The graphics is nice and smooth I enjoy laying multiple players on my tv with my son

I don't know what more can be said about the wildly successful and entertaining Nintendo Switch, but let me just start with: this is my second Switch and I purchased it specifically for our kids to have their own. There's so many games available, lots of controllers to choose from, and (best of all) a very good online account / Family Account system for getting all of the gamers in your household linked up and ready to play.

The Nintendo Switch has completely changed how I game. Its seamless transition between docked and handheld modes lets me play anytime, anywhere. With a huge game library and intuitive controls, it's a joy to use. Plus, it's durable and has decent battery life. If you want a versatile and high-quality gaming experience, the Nintendo Switch is a must-have.

Awesome little thing my employees all seemed to want to win this during the raffle

This was so hard to snatch due to it being out of stock for so long but finally did. It's so much fun and easy to carry on trips or play at home on the TV. So many games available to play with multiple players making it a great gift for all ages!

Got this as an early Christmas present for my teenage son. Many stores were out of these on Black Friday, but no problem to order online from Best Buy and just pick it up. But that's not why you're reading this review. The game is usable all by itself with the included screen or hooked up to a TV with an HDMI cable. There's virtually no difference in gameplay between the two modes, I was afraid the game's screen might have a little lag, but that wasn't the case. Battery life is pretty good, especially considering the graphics and things happening in the games. lAdmiditally, we got this unit early in its life, so there isn't a huge variety of games yet. But we're very happy with the selection that's out now and know more games are in the pipeline. The games on the Switch are a bit more tame than on an Xbox to PlayStation, so that makes this a good choice for younger kids. Of course, it's great for amyone who wants high-quality gaming on the go. All in all, very satisfied with the product and the buying experience at Best Buy.

Have had this for two weeks now and it’s been a blast. My girlfriend and I love the Mario games we initially got. Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy were surprisingly good purchases (downloads) during a recent cold snap, as well. No issues with the controllers or system. All working fine. I’d also say I enjoy playing the Switch more than my PS4. Oh - one thing I would recommend is buy yourself some extra storage for this system.

This has been a blast for our pre-teen. He enjoys the multi-player options that exist with the small controllers, and how portable it is. The games he has he really enjoys and we've had to set limits on its use because he would play 24x7 if given the opportunity.

The Nintendo Switch has taken over as my son's favorite system. Our Xbox one rarely gets played anymore. Though the switch died connect to the TV, I find that my son and from what I hear, his friends, prefer to play handheld. Obviously it's also great for road trips. I was able to get it at a time when it was sold out everywhere but Best Buy was restocked and delivered it promptly! Weber had it a few months now, with no issues. The battery life is good and the gameplay is fantastic. My only concern is I didn't originally get a protection plan to do I used the chat to add it. While the customer service rep told me I am now covered, I have never received any confirmation on documentation for the protection play. Luckily, Best Buy's website emails the chat transcript, so I do have that as proof should any issues arise

The Switch is a great little console/handheld hybrid. It works great on the go and connected to the TV. One concern is Nintendo being Nintendo as they tend to go against what Microsoft/Sony have established as gaming standards (online communities, achievements, etc). I also hope there is plenty of first party games coming down the road as Zelda is a true masterpiece and if other games follow that trend they have a bright future. But currently the games are really limited, so if you're not buying Zelda, I'm not really sure what you are going to play. The move to cartridges is also interesting as this will limit how powerful they can make games, but if Zelda is anything to measure on things look good. Also, beware the left Joy-Con bug. If you have anything between you and the Switch it can act weird when connected to the controller dock (even if your leg or something is in between). The Switch is a brilliant design and everything works well as far as various Joy-Con configurations (attached, detached, sideways, play on TV, attached to grip, etc). As a previous owner of the Wii and Wii U, I feel much better owning a Switch at first than I did with those consoles.

Ordered online came fast and in good condition. Must have for game night!

Awesome system! It has great games and it is great to be able to bring it on the go. I primarily use the Switch docked, but it is great to be able to bring it along. The first party games are the best and it is continuously getting more and more third party support.

So the new Nintendo switch is out and well at this point in time its really not much to look at with a lack of variety of impressive launch titles I can't complain much there because all you need right now the legend of Zelda.... But a great multiplayer game should have been available too. Unfortunately there's also an annoying joy con issue that likes to randomly disconnect from the system. The is a fix our out now but that requires sending in the joycon. There's also the lack of virtual console and many other things that will eventually be available. Otherwise I'm really enjoying the new console and enjoy playing whether on the tv or handheld mode..... Coming soon Mario kart 8 deluxe!

The console is great! I love that it is portable and can also be played on the tv.

The Nintendo Switch is fantastic. Its versatility as a handheld and console is unmatched. The graphics are impressive, and the game library is extensive with titles for all ages. Battery life is solid, and the controls are responsive. Overall, it's a great investment for gaming enthusiasts seeking quality and portability. Highly recommended.

Have had it over a year now. Has worked great. No issues.

Great fun for the whole family! It's great how you can either just play with the switch as a handheld screen device or you can hook it up to the tv! The controllers are a little on the small side put you eventually get use to it.

8-bit NES was my first console - purchased w/ paper route money when I was 14. Over the years Nintendo has been hit or miss with me (and many others) when it's come to their "innovations", but so far the switch is a total hit. I *usually* get to game on the TV, but if someone else in the house wants to watch something, I can take it out of the cradle and play elsewhere. The built-in screen is large enough that even my middle-aged, computer-squinter eyes can make everything out fine. Usually, Nintendo's game selection on a new console is *terrible* for at least the first year, but I was pleased to find several games I looked forward to playing were available at or soon after launch. (Must. Resist. Buying. Skyrim. *AGAIN*.) The only negative thing I could really say is with regard the construction of the console itself - the kickstand feels like it could snap off pretty easily (which is extra scary, since it doubles as the memory expansion slot cover!), but aside from that I've got zero complaints.
