Customer Ratings & Reviews

After the flop that was the Wii U, and the huge success before that was the Wii...Nintendo has done it again! They took a simple concept (a dockable console that's both portable and looks great on modern 4k TV's) and executed it extremely well. Basically, if you love Nintendo, you'll love this. It's not without it's flaws, but in the grand scheme of things there's nothing really even worth mentioning...I will anyway though. The biggest flaw for me personally is they took away the "Virtual Console" and now require a monthly subscription to access a small selection of retro games. Another potential flaw is that the default controllers (Joy-Cons) are EXTREMELY tiny, even while houses in the controller unit provided with the console. I have big hands and using the joy-cons is almost pointless. Their joysticks are also a little on the short side and in turn make aiming an adjustment to get used to. I'd highly recommend getting the Pro Controller or another 3rd part traditional controller if you're more of a "serious" gamer. At the end of the day these flaws don't detract from the experience that is the Switch though and this is easily one of the best "full family" consoles of all time!

Wonderful product! Works great. Bought as a replacement for one I had from 5 years ago.

I purchased this for my son's birthday, and he loved it. It is a very good console but probably not if you are a gamer with preference for more dynamic type of games. In my son's case since he will be traveling a lot with his school band, this is the perfect console to bring on those long road trips. The battery last for a very good 4 hours and the controllers are very practical to store. Overall, this is a solid product for kids up to middle school age, or old-school gamers like me!

It has all the best titles-- and you can play them on the go. I mainly PC game and am an avid Overwatch player and have a 144hz monitor and a Nvidia 1080-- but to play, a much slower version, Overwatch at work during lunch is a blast! Voice chat and all the regular toxic Overwatch and is there too. Zelda is top notch, Mario was a blast and all the info titles like DeadCells, Cuphead all run great. Can't complain-- no wonder you can't find this thing in stores!

This is the best game to have a good time with your wife and kids

My family and I have 2 switches, we enjoy them both but here's the quirk that we don't enjoy. If you have a Family Nintendo Online account, the primary account can enjoy games on both switches (digital downloads) but the other members of the family cannot play those games (regardless of if they are being played on the other switch). Now this is not an issue if you own the physical cartridge so note that the problem is only with digital editions. Second quirk, most games do not have cloud saves and when you "transfer" a save between systems it fully moves it from one system to the other. Now, those are the only negatives that I can say about the switch. If you are a solo player and are not sharing a system then I doubt you'll run into these issues. Battery Life is good, screen is good, games are fun. And, again if you are a solo player the digital store is great if you dont want to carry around a bunch of game cards.

Love it. Fun for the family game night. Especially playing Mario party

It is really fun to play on and the titles for it are great. Really good for single player games as well as family games

It's awesome! Got it for my kids The options of games are great, the quality is awesome. The only thing you should need is a sim card to be able to store more games on it. Other than that, it's all amazing

I had a friend that shared they were in stock and to just keep hitting refresh as long as it didn’t show Sold Out! after 8 minutes, it went through! So far holding up well. I bought it for my 5 year old to help cope with isolation, and I forgot how much reading Nintendo games require... he likes it handheld better for little hands but we have fun with new versions of the games I loved on N64, GameCube and Wii. I love that you can play SNES and NES stuff as well!

Walked in found what we wanted the girl helped us and we were in and out in no time

Works great, easy to travel with, good game options.

It is. user Friendly and very handy. Graphics are amazing. as well.

Best Buy is the best place to buy stuff and enjoy buying from them

The Switch is a really great handheld. Sure, the battery life isn't great, but the ability to take a console anywhere even without external controllers is something amazing. It's magical playing it handheld and dropping it in the dock and see it go straight up on the TV without a hitch. I was hurt by the Wii U but this is a true Nintendo experience that has them committing to 3rd parties as well. I mean Doom and Wolfenstein 2? That's a great thing. I'm looking forward to the future. I no longer pick up my 3DS and I hope it stays that way.

Easy setup, amazing quality, everything works great!

Easy to set up and play. Lots of kid-friendsly games. Got one for all the kids to help with quarantine.

Nintendo switch is a very good companion on long flights especially :)

Great updated switch with better battery life and brighter screen. Model #: HAC-001(-01).

Easy to use, shipped in time for Xmas. Waiting for some Nintendo classics, but ones already out play great, and plenty of third party support
