Customer Ratings & Reviews

Ok for casual gaming, that's all i have to say. Yep yep

I had lost some interest in Nintendo with the DS and Wii, but I have found the Switch to be a really great console! It's quick, it's portable, I like the Joy-Cons, and the graphics are better than I anticipated. Plus, the games are fun (my girlfriend plays, too)!

I have always been a big fan of Mario, back in the “80’s” when the very first Nintendo came out, I was hooked! I just purchased the Nintendo Switch for my Grandson along with the game, Mario Odyssey, and I have to admit that I am hooked once again. This system is truly awesome, I have only played the one game so far but the system itself is just very nice, you have several options of how to play, those being, on the TV, handheld, you can use the controls one in each hand or they can be put in a holder and used the traditional way. Charging the controls is so simple, just slide them onto the side of the game. One thing I have heard and I do not know if it is true or not, but some of the games cannot be played on a TV. I am still looking into that. I hope this review was helpful, if you are unsure about purchasing this game, I was as well but I am very satisfied with it, no buyers remorse...lol

I was excited to get this but was even happier with the system than I expected. The versatility to play on the TV or handheld is well thought out and the range of available games makes this a real Winner.

10/10 it’s a great switch! Everything came on time! Super happy

Great versatility. Hand held plus being able to connect to the TV. Also the new games for this console are great. Great battery life for a few hours of play time and easy to travel with of you have a travel case.

The Nintendo Switch is hands down the best console I’ve ever owned. And it all comes down to one simple, yet profoundly unique aspect. Portability. The ability to take home console games on the go - to play anywhere I want in handheld mode - is worth more to me than the graphical prowess of the PS4/PS5 or Xbox One/Series consoles. The second reason why I love the Switch, portability notwithstanding, is the massive library of games. And while I can’t count how many times I hear “but they’re all just ports”, my first answer is: No. They’re not. And my second answer is: Ports are awesome. Bring everything to Switch. I mean, seriously, the amount of quality games one has to choose from for this console, in addition to the ability to play anywhere, is just insane. Xenoblade Chronicles 1 & 2, Monster Hunter Rise, Persona 5 Strikers, Skyrim, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Dragon Quest XI: S, Divinity: Original Sin II, Bravely Default II, Pokémon Sword & Shield, etc etc etc. In terms of this specific model, it’s fantastic and I’ve had no issues whatsoever — and I’ve been playing it for over a year or so now pretty regularly. I’ve noticed a big difference in the longer lasting battery life of this model versus the original launch model. Otherwise, that’s about all I’ve noticed as being a difference between the two. But hey, that’s fine by me as I primarily play handheld like 95% of the time. If you don’t care about the upcoming, inevitable Switch Pro model that will be likely to launch around Q4 2021 or sometime 2022, then I can’t recommend this model enough. It’s an amazing hybrid console and the hours you’ll get out of it will not only be massive in terms of quantity, but also in terms of quality due to the amazing and ever-growing library of games. Do it.

This was a gift to my daughter, she’s obsessed with the switch. It’s so compact and easy to set up! Very content

Nintendo has another hit on their hands with this console. I bought this as a replacement for my daughter's 10 year old DS. The fact that it is portable and can be docked to the TV is awesome. Hit games like BoW, Mario, and Mario Kart just make it even better.

The Switch is a competent console with a growing game library. The online market does its job. It's good for playing on the go or docked and on a tv. The joycons could use some work on antenna placement as you do need to sit close to the unit for wireless play.

I have an Xbox1 but I spend most of my time on this since I got it. I love the portability and the capabilities of on the go multiplayer and big screen gaming. Battery life is excellent with a variety of games and joy con colors

This is an absolutely great product! This was the perfect gift for my wife.

I really enjoy the concept. I have played on planes with my wife and had big Mario parties at home. I have always wanted a switch and after playing my controller disconnect during games with friends and now honestly we don’t play as much. It was just one of the controllers so I bought two more and one of those did the same thing disconnecting during games. I’m guessing them Bluetooth gets cut off. The Wii remotes never had that problem…. Other than the remotes disconnecting I’ve really enjoyed playing all the games and being able to go solo or having the whole family play. Totally worth the money and I bet if I got the switch 2 these problems would be solved hopefully.

Same excellent console now with a much needed battery improvement. Would recommend to anyone that used to be on the fence

We love our switch. No issues, love the portability of the device

I love using this and playing the games on it. It is fun to play with family and friends

I haven’t used a Wii in so long but the Wii switch is better than the system from years ago. Now I play just dance and Mario cart.

I had an original Nintendo switch and this is the updated second version. I can honestly say the battery life has been significantly improved over the original version. I'm not sure if this new version claims any increase in game performance but at least to me, that still seems the same which is fine. Every game I have runs just as good on this switch as opposed to the original unit I had. I have had this unit for a while and purposely waited to post a review to be sure I did not have any joy-con drift problems like I did with the first unit which Nintendo corrected anyway. Nintendo is a top notch company who stands firmly behind its product. I recommend this console for all ages, if you can find it in stock.

The Nintendo Switch is an absolute game-changer! It's a versatile console that allows you to play both on your TV and on the go. The library of games is incredible, offering a wide range of genres and experiences. The Joy-Con controllers are intuitive and make multiplayer gaming a blast. Whether you're a casual gamer or a hardcore enthusiast, the Nintendo Switch has something for everyone. It's a must-have for any gaming fan!

I'm so glad I made this purchase even with the "new" Switch on the horizon. I really love the versatility of the Switch! I honestly didn't think I would use the other modes besides docked, but it's been so nice having games on the go with something significantly better to play on than a phone. I really wanted to change up my gaming as I've only been playing PS4 lately and I've finished most of the games I wanted to play. That started to get stale so I really wanted something new and different. The Switch offers something fresh and engaging. I've spent so much time on Zelda Breath of the Wild, more than most games on my other console already. The joy-cons, although small, are quite responsive and work well with the games on offer. The whole device feels surprisingly solid and is definitely made well. I opted to get the BestBuy protection plan. I'd recommend this especially if you plan to take your Switch with you a lot. There is also a known issue with the joy-cons after a while. The sticks tend to drift causing input lag and misdirection, so I'm glad I would be covered in case something happens (the protection plan is actually cheaper than a new set of joy-cons too, just saying). I highly recommend getting some accessories for it. Cases, grips, controllers, dock sleeves, screen protectors. game card cases, all of these little things just add to the experience and of course, protects and makes things more convenient. It feels like I'm investing in something worthwhile. I understand those who are on the fence about buying this model with the announcement of an updated Switch coming in the fall. I bought mine this summer before that news came out, but I don't at all regret making the purchase. I knew I wanted to spend a chunk of my summer playing this. Plus the upgrade is very minor, just a couple hours of extra battery life. I always have my charger with me and I might invest in a portable battery anyway, so waiting a few months for a version that is virtually identical just didn't make sense to me. If you can wait then, sure, get a Switch later during the holidays. Either way, this is a fantastic console and if you really want to feel like a kid again this is for you!
