Customer Ratings & Reviews

I feel like most people have the Switch now so not much is needed here, but I love my system and with their many Mario games, the boredom never stops. Perfect for travel or at home.

It's a shame that Nintendo can never/does never keep up with the demand for their products. I managed to get a pre-order for this console the night it was announced, and have had it since then. Most people will get this for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, which is a really, really amazing game. I wasn't interested at first until I watched my sister play her copy. I had never been that into the Zelda franchise before, but now I'm thinking about going back and playing some older titles. Zelda and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are a lot of fun, and the portability of the console is great. I was able to play Mario Kart on the train a few weeks ago on the way home from out of town, which is amazingly cool for a "home" console. I think Nintendo has passed through the growing pains of the Wii U. "Switch" isn't even that terrible of a name, hahaha. All that said, if you're not interested in either of those games, you may wanna hold off on purchasing this. There are other games available, but not "big" ones so much. Splatoon 2 is coming out in July, and the next Super Mario game comes in October. There are also Yoshi, Kirby, and Pokemon games announced for next year. My point is, you could wait on this for more games to come out. There are some great ones coming. Hopefully they get around to adding a Virtual Console to the system as well, so we can play older games on it. If you want to play Zelda and Mario Kart now though, go for it. It's a great console and more amazing games are coming soon. If you just want to play Zelda and no other future games that were announced at E3, pick up a used Wii U and sell it when you're done. Mario Kart 8 is also available on Wii U, and the "Deluxe" subtitle on the Switch version just means that all the DLC from the Wii U release is included. All that is available with the Wii U version, to my understanding (for an additional cost) but the Switch is portable and has a higher resolution. Oh also, it wasn't clear to me from demonstrations or their presentation, but the Switch tablet does have a touch screen. Then the "Joy Con" controllers are detachable, and there's also a wireless Pro Controller option, which is optional, but I recommend it if you've got the money (around $60.)

Bought this for my youth organization. The youth love playing and the many joycons and multiplayer games have helped them build team work.

We bought this Nintendo Switch for our daughter she’s been wanting this and we’re finally bought it and she loves that she can hook it up to the tv and also take it in the car

She has been asking for one for a while. My daughters loved it

Great Christmas gift very entertaining and you can also get YouTube on your tv once you connect the game just need to download it

My son love loves this game I think right now I'm the best mom in the world to him,but he is a great student so he deserves the best. I always love buying at best buy because I get quality for my money

Honestly I was skeptical. Another wii like device? BUT I was soooo wrong. This is such an amazing system! I love how everyone wants to try it out and can’t put it down. I couldn’t wait for Xmas to open it. 10/10 would buy again.

My daughter had so much fun playing the animal crossing. My wife join in too. This was out of stock for many months and I was lucky to check avail in Best Buy one day and hit jackpot.

purchased for my grandkid's it was a big hit with them both!!

This is great console game for kids. There are a lot of fun games which not to scary for young kids. I bought this for my kids and enjoy playing game with them every weekend.

Amazing! Always wanted something similar to the gameboy back in the day, and this did it.

Thanks for the service given! loving the console! thanks

Great graphics, portable, and fun. There aren't as many games as other systems. But the ones we have are fun and have great graphics. Love it can connect to TV or be hand held.

I highly recommend for users who enjoy the games available on the switch. I have a friend who has had multiple issues with joycon drift, but luckily have not seen it yet (I've only had it for a few weeks). It is great for on the go and for playing at home and when playing a game alone and with others. I have taken it with me while traveling and played at home on the TV and as a handheld and it works really well in all scenarios. The only complaint is that the battery can drain fairly quickly. As an example, when I went traveling, I brought the switch and didn't end up using it for ~2 weeks. Unfortunately when I tried to turn it back on, it was out of battery. Because of this, I recommend just leaving it in the charger if you know you are not going to use it so it stays charged. It is fairly simple to switch between single and multiplayer and it is seamless to switch between hand-held and using it on the TV or just using the screen. I admit that the quality is very good when using the tv and it is harder to see some of the subtler details on the switch screen. I have a large 4k tv and it works very well with it. I admit that I bought this originally for one particular game (Fire Emblem Three Houses) and decided to also get Diablo to play with others. I think that it was well worth it especially since it looks like there might be more games coming out on the switch in the future. However, if I did not already want to play these games (and if I didn't already know that I would enjoy them after playing on my friend's switch), then I would have a harder time using it. It is also nice to be able to download games and it has an SD slot for additional memory. It can take a while to download the games, but you can also just buy the actual game card for it. You can also use the switch in airplane mode to conserve battery.

was trying everyday to order this product and i finally found it in stock! love the game options and the playing options. the order came in faster than expected but still in great shape.

Very cool switch I really enjoy playing it even when I’m at work, only when it’s slow of course

AMAZING CONSOLE, Honestly best system to have during these times in 2020, You’ll have way more fun than the PS4/Xboxone, they’re great systems as well, but not better than the switch!!!

My kids like this game too much and they are enjoying it or not in their free time

Excellent handheld system, love the ability to swap from handheld to tv.
