Customer Ratings & Reviews

Top Notch system with great mobility. Nintendo has very high quality items. All the past Nintendo great games can be used, Now other titles are also available. Best Game System of 2017.

I absolutely love this thing! I bought a Switch thinking it might be a good coping mechanism for the ongoing pandemic quarantine and boy was I right. I'm not a gamer, haven't played in years since my kids were little, but now I'm obsesses with Mario Kart and Animal Crossing and this little system is so much fun to use. It's great to have the option to carry it around and play it and it's really comfortable in your hands. It's also nice to dock it and play on the TV for multiple players and for a larger screen. If you can find one in stock, don't hesitate - buy it!!

The Switch is a good system to use as both home entertainment and entertainment on the road. Just make sure to get a large enough card for games.

Great purchase !! I would recommend this to anyone who has friends or family over.

By this time there are few things that I can say about this console that has not been said before. If you want a console that gives you all the fun, the Nintendo Switch is the best option, since it gives you the portability that other consoles can not give you. The Joy-cons feel good, Display Picture is gorgeous Battery life is perfect. And finally the games are great. *Cons ... you must buy an SD.

I got it for someone and he says he really loves it.

love the machine need get more games for it will be back thanks

The best game ever! Bought for my daughter for her birthday

Love my Nintendo Switch, I use it all the time. It’s very simple to use. One of my favorite features is the detachable remotes, I love being able to play my games easily on the tv.

Great game system, my daughter loves it! It is great whether to play handheld or connected to the TV to have family fun with multiplayer games.

My kids have been asking for this system for a while now, so I finally bit the bullet and bought one. Having owned a Wii-U before I knew I liked Nintendo's systems and my kids love their games, it was just a matter of buying yet another system... Fortunately my kids love it. This is a terrific, family-friendly system! Set-up was pretty easy (and my kids really had fun with it--though of course they're impatient to just get it set up already). It's all done mostly online, so an internet connection helps a lot (I genuinely have no idea if you can set it up without being online--never even thought to check). It comes with some charge, so you can start playing right away once set up is complete. One helpful hint: if you're thinking about buying one of these--or any Nintendo product for that matter--go ahead and set up a Nintendo account ahead of time. That makes set up quick, and you can control things like playtime, monitor what's been played and when, etc. Nintendo has a FANTASTIC array of parental controls that can be accessed through their website. For parents of kids--younger kids especially--this can be a lifesaver! I had my doubts about the controls but so far (a month of hard kid play--ages 6, 8 and 11) they've held up well. They seem to charge fast and hold their charge well. I also bought a wired controller since I have three kids and there's a handful of games they can all play together. The portable screen is neat and seems durable, though I'm terrified of how it will hold up to drops. With my kids ages we don't really let them port it around. The first long car-trip we take may change that--which probably means I'll be looking for some kind of durable case for it. The screen has a nice, sharp picture to it even though it's small. Two of my kids have actually played it in another room while my older kid played on one of our other systems, so it has come in handy already. As a parent I love the fact that so many of Nintendo's games are kid-friendly. While there are certainly older-kid (like me haha) games out there for the system, the ones my kids want to play are Mario Kart, Splatoon and the like. Games load fast from the cartridges. You have to be careful and make sure they get put back when you're done, as they're very small and seem super-easy to lose. There's not a lot of storage for the downloads required. We haven't needed an extra memory card yet, but probably will with just a few more games. Fortunately even the large memory cards (the system uses micro-SD cards) are pretty cheap and seem to go on sale all the time. We have a back-up ready for when we need it! We purchased two games with the system (thanks Gamers Club Unlocked!) as it doesn't come with any. If you're a GCU member hold out for a sale on the games when you buy your system--they come down to almost half-price! Otherwise all the most popular games (Mario, etc) tend to stay at the $60 mark. I've seen a bundled deal or two, but they're pretty rare. Overall this is a well-designed and family friendly system, with the best family-friendly games out there. It does a lot already, but seems like it's capable of a lot more. If you were holding out like me then wait no longer! This is a great system and well worth the money.

It’s really SO cool that you can seamlessly take your game from tv to an on the go tablet. This is really helpful when your kid is in the middle of a game and you need to get out the door! The versatility of one controller breaking into two pieces for two people to use if needed (not my preferred method) is well thought out. I balked and hesitated on buying this for a long long time, since we had DSs, Xbox’s, etc... but this one is really like a LIFESTYLE gaming system and will get the most use in our house. Also. Buy over cooked. And don’t forget to ask for the amazon price match.

Just get it it’s really good special if you like Mario

I always hold off on purchasing new video game consoles for the first few months at least, usually for a full year or so, since there always seem to be kinks to get worked out. When I came across these in stock at Best Buy, after seeing it nowhere for months, I decided to pick one up with a lot of other accessories. First off, having heard some complaints about the system in terms of scratches from docking, Joycons loosing connection from too far away, graphics not stacking up to other systems, I'll say this: I haven't had any issues with the first two and if you care more about what it looks like than how the games play and the overall experience, you probably won't be into this system. This is not a hardcore gamer's system because it was made for the casual gamer to play at home or on the go due to it's portability. You really can't compare it to other systems because it's not like other systems. It sacrifices graphics, sure, but only in lieu of being completely portable. The battery charge lasts quite awhile on the full system out of the dock - I found myself playing more often undocked than docked since it's convenient to be able to take it up to bed or in the car on trips if I'm not driving. The batteries in the Joycons also last quite awhile and I have yet to have them run out while playing. Other than that, there's not much to say that's not specific to the games on the system. They have a lot of games to download from the Nintendo eStore so anyone who's complaining about lack of launch titles at this point hasn't checked the store in awhile since there is a lot to keep us busy until the holiday season when they invariably release a slew of new titles.

So I got this for my 11 year old. He loves it ! Awesome selection of games, totally portable, great speed and graphics, and it can be hooked directly to tv.

It was item I bought for son. He loves it and enjoy the games on it. However, some games you have to purchase which is really unfair.

Nintendo nailed it, finally. It seems they took what they learned from the Wii U and created a great gaming console. This machine has a bright future, I wouldn't hesitate to buy again.

Use it all the time such a solid unit. I love the gta remastered

Good system for home or on the go gaming. Not as powerful as the competition, but it doesn't need to be. The games from Nintendo are really fun.

Easy setup. Was pretty much fully charged out the box and was ready to play with family within 10mins. 3 different ways to setup the system and play
