Customer Ratings & Reviews

After searching for a Switch for quite some time Best Buy came to the rescue. The console is perfect. Nostalgic gaming in a modern way. Really enjoying the ability to play on TV with wireless controllers and pick up hand held right where I left off. Game selection is surprisingly good and I find myself lately gravitating toward the switch over XBox. Money well spent.

This is a wonderful console, it does lack graphics power, but makes up for it with the number of fun games available. The console is mobile and easily can go from TV to mobile gaming for all games. Battery is very good, lasts about 3 to 4 hours playing a heavy game like Zelda.

took a little bit longer than I wouldve liked for the pickup but I have no complains for the switch. I play mario kart on it with my fiancee all the time and we love it.

Purchased for my college-age daughter, she and her friends play as stress relief between studying. They LOVE it. Helps them get up and move and get some exercise.

Excellent console, portable, the battery life is wonderful, thanks

When I was a kid I always played games on my GameBoy Color, Advanced, and SP. As I got older I fell out of playing video games. I am so happy I got this. It has brought me back - especially during these times. I forgot how much I liked playing video games. I like that I can play on the tv or in hand held mode. The device runs well and haven't had any issues. Definitely recommend.

My kid loves it, i like nintendo in general. They have great games for kids

My 4 year old loves the switch. Super convenient. We love that it can be played on the tv or it can be portable as well. Easy to use.

My son love Nintendo , before going on vacation to play in car the fort nite , he needs it badly I checked with my neighborhood library but I didn’t find it. Then I went to Best Buy near my home , there they don’t have Nintendo then fortunately i found it at Howard location. And our vacation was so good , and now he can carry Nintendo anywhere he wants.

I bought the Switch with the intent to play 3 games: Zelda, Mario, and Xenoblade. I'm currently working on Mario and so far it's been extremely fun and I can't wait for the library to expand. As for the system itself, the tablet portion is compact and easy to carry around and I was able to play my games on the go just as advertised. For those worried about battery life when it's not docked, be sure to purchase a USB C cable to charge the console

The Nintendo switch is a cool little console, however I wouldn't really classify it as a console. It's more of a handheld console that you can connect to your tv. Even being more of a handheld it has some pretty cool features. The Joycon controllers can be detached and allow you to play 2 players on your tv or you can prop the Switch up with it's kickstand and play on the little tablet. The Switch comes with a dock which isn't very sturdy and doesn't have the heft or a wide enough base to keep the console from tipping if it's bump into. The graphics are decent and the technology is honestly a little dated for a new console, 1080p when 4K technology is on the forefront? I'm not sure why they didn't decide to beef it up a little. They may have their reason not to incorporate 4K but this is one of the reasons I think if the Switch as a handheld instead of a console. The other is the 32gb of onboard storage. 128, 256 or 512 gb's would have been decent. My PlayStation 4 has 500 GB's and my Xbox one 2 TB's. Yea I know the switch is a fraction of the size but so are some laptops and tablets and it has the same price tag as and Xbox One S. I do like the fact that I don't have to wait for the games to download to the console before I can enjoy them. The cartridges are pretty small and probably easy to lose if you're not careful. The tiny Joy's are reminiscent of the Wiimote's just scaled down. They have no d-pad and trying to use the little thumbs stick can make navigating menus frustrating. Fortunately you can is them together to form a more traditional game controller and the negative joycons buttons are used as the d-pad. This makes scrolling through menus so much easier. I like the Switch since I can play it while my wife is watching television. Currently there aren't very many titles for the Switch but the most disappointing things are there isn't any LTE to play online when not at home or to stream a movie from Netflix. While speaking of Netflix I was greatly disappponted to see there weren't any steaming apps offered or any apps for that matter. While that is the case for now I did read someplace they have plans to add these things in the near future, I hope that will come sooner than later. I'm pretty competitive and While I'm glad Nintendo decided to add online Multiplayer I was disappointed to see they will be charging for the service and I haven't seen any mention of free games or other content that the other consoles offer. I'm guessing that the execs don't think that they are in competition with Sony and Microsoft. Overall I have enjoyed my Switch so far. Nintendo did leave a little to be desired but did a pretty nice job. So if you are looking for a great handheld with the fun games we've enjoy from Nintendo over the years pick this one up. If your looking for a next gen console with killer graphics wait for the next Xbox or PlayStation.

Purchsed as a gift. They love it for the portability and says battery life is great.

I waited a long time before purchasing one and I wish I had done it sooner. There are so many games I can play from the comfort of anywhere. I love how you can play it on the TV or handheld. You get the best of both worlds.

Easy to use and has fun games. Reminds me of childhood playing Mario.

Great family friendly console. Got a few games I used to play when I was young and the kids love them. Glad I get to share it with them

I was super lucky to find one on time and at retail price. It took over a week to arrive and was delayed but I understand, given the current situation. It just sucked for me because I was so excited to get it! Once it arrived, I loved how cool it was and the versatility of being able to play three different ways. I totally recommend this to anyone who wants a 3 in 1 deal.

So happy I finally got a Nintendo Switch. Love Mario Kart & Super Mario U so far.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my child & they love it. It's portable, they can purchase games digitally, no boring car rides. There are plenty of apps to download.

Works as expected, We had a Switch lite but now we can play together.

I have the online package and it's great to play all the games I used to play when I was growing up. I also enjoy introducing them to my great nieces and nephews.
