Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Switch is honestly pretty amazing. The main reason why I love the system is because of its ability to both serve as a home console as well as a portable gaming device.

I got this for my great-grandson for Christmas because his was stolen by a friend of his mother's. When he tore off a bit of paper and saw what was inside, he started crying, put it down and gave me the best "Thank you", and biggest hug ever. His reaction was priceless.

Took a while to be in stock but got it and has been a fun console since. Best Buy staff was helpful in finally getting it too!

This product is a great piece of entertainment equipment for my kids. They love all the games available on it and can maneuver it with ease!

Such a fun product to use when bored and have nothing to so

Happy with the purchase. My son enjoys the ability to go from a hand held game system to being able to stream it on the television.

Wasn’t sure how I was going to like the switch compared to my PS4 Pro. Love it for it’s portablity and how you can play with people

The Switch is a kind of hybrid between a handheld system like the Game Boy or 3DS, and a home console like the Wii. It has a 6.5 inch screen, and is good for hours of gaming on the go. But when you get home, you can drop the device into a dock, slip off the controllers from the side of the console, and play the very same game on your TV. Suddenly, it’s a home console. I’m pretty pleased with Nintendo’s execution of the concept. It feels like less of a toy than some of their other game systems. It’s heavy and solid, but not so heavy that my arms get tired while I play. The system is capable of graphics better than the Wii U, but not up to par with the Xbox One or PlayStation 4. That’s fine for me, and makes sense for a portable system. The controllers are a little small, but feel comfortable and are very responsive. The biggest problem with the Switch right now is the small game library. There are only a few games out for the system right now, and only one - the new Legend of Zelda game - felt like it was worth buying for full price. 1-2-Switch is a fun collection of minigames, but should have been cheap or free and bundled with the system rather than a full-price title. There are new Super Mario, Mariokart, and Splatoon games coming soon, but currently the lineup is a little thin. This very well could be the end of Nintendo having separate product lines for portable and home gaming because, essentially, the Switch does both. It does neither perfectly, but it does both well enough that I don’t know if it will make sense for Nintendo to continue marketing the 3DS.

Product came in fast from shipping easy to use great product fir my kids

This is an amazing product. It took a while to get d/t stock shortages, but overall I am incredibly happy I waited and was able to get it!

A great and awesome gaming device! Love to play with family and friends!

Fun to play! Easy to work! Fun for the whole family

I have a Nintendo Wii U and is very similar but this one you can carry it wherever you want! I’m not disappointed! Too expensive in my opinion.

It's exactly what my son wanted, his ultimate prize. The ordering process through the phone with the store was amazingly easy and pleasant.

Easy to play multiplayer games and you can take it with you

Best console out there. I find myself playing for hours. My kids love it I love it. It's great for the whole family. You want get bored of this console. I had to get two.

The Nintendo Switch is unlike any console on the market. It's really one of those things you need to try for yourself to understand the feeling. But something about it just makes you happy. The portability of it is awesome. As a college student, nothing is better than playing it in my dorm and then taking it on the go when I go to class. Though it's not to practical to walk around with it in crowds, the quickness of just a button tap puts it to sleep or wakes it up, and within a seconds you're back to playing where you left off no matter where you are. Its the grab and go that makes it so appealing to me. When more games come out (yeah the launch was a little weak in the games department) I'm sure I'll appreciate the "passing of the Joy-Con for some local multiplayer fun" a whole lot. Just the idea that theconsole technically has two controllers out of the box is pretty awesome. And though some hate on Nintendo's idea of launching with few titles, I think it's smart because it fleshes out the releases of big titles to every few months which allows you to enjoy each title for an adequate amount of time instead of throwing them all in your face at once. Plus, it keeps the console exciting instead of having to wait long periods of time before the next big hit. Nintendo really did right with this console this time around. Other than their production (which they claim to be doubling in the coming months), I think Nintendo learned from their past mistakes with the Switch. If you're looking for a fun new game platform for yourself or your family, definitely pick up the Switch.

Nintendo really puts a lot of work into their systems and games and it shows! So excited for the Switch! I loved the Wii-U and excited to see what the Switch has to offer

To be honest I wasn't sold on the switch when it was announced but had to get one to play oddysey, do not regret it at all, this have made my long trips so much better...

I'm so happy I bought this. I've only been playing BOTW so far but I'm sure everything I play will be great. The only con I have with it is that you have to switch from controller mode to handheld in order to solve some puzzles, but that's not a deal breaker.
