Customer Ratings & Reviews

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

The switch is a handheld-home console hybrid. The 6.2" tablet itself is where all the power is located. As a handheld it is fantastic. The display is a crisp 720p and the controls are very well placed. The battery life is decent, but can easily be extended with the right external usb-c battery pack (check requirements). As a home console it is good. It can display up to 1080p/60fps. Most games won't reach that, Zelda for example only gets 900p/30fps. But it still performs well enough. Other than the few games available the system is currently pretty bare. Very minimal online capabilities and no third party apps available yet. Unless you must play Zelda now, I would wait a bit for Nintendo is inevitably going to add more functionality to the system.

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

Good quality amazing screen to play my children and I enjoy playing

I did a good deal of research on the Nintendo Switch (NS) with customer reviews before making my purchase. From the portability of the system to the gaming experience, quality of graphics on a small screen, to the functionality of connecting to a television. You cannot beat all of that functionality with another like device. I've seen the comparisons with Wii and others of this type but do not compare in meeting all of the options that the NS offers. I bought this system for my young son and he thoroughly enjoys his monitored playtime.

Such a surprisingly powerful console. I was born in 1979. How far we have come with handhelds. I have yet to notice a problem w it handling Skyrim. Typically the game has issues way past the point Im at though. A wide variety of games to choose from. Colors/designs. Accessories. Holds a charge well. Im pleased.

Genius... I admit I play it more than my kids. I hog it.. sneak it away! Love it. What will they come up with next!

10/10 would recommend this! It’s a great way to play with friends anytime, anywhere. Great for all ages!

Congrats to Nintendo for launching the Switch! I'm also glad I never bought into the Nintendo Wii U. They could have saved a lot of loyal followers if they had just made this instead of the Wii U. Then again, I guess without the U, maybe the switch wouldn't have been conceived. Game play is good, nowhere near a PS4 or XBox, but then again, Nintendo's mission to me, is more fun for everyone over video quality. Hands down, the Switch is fun. If you're still playing with the original Wii, switch over to the Switch. You won't regret it.

Love my Switch! Nintendo has figured out the portable gaming market and experience!

Great Item. Space saver. Controllers excellent. Great buy!

amazing product, fast shipping, solid packaging, great experience

Excellent console to have the power to be handheld, tabletop, and and in tv mode! Also, great game selection.

Great console for all occasions. Bonding with siblings/parents, hanging out with friends, drinking games at parties, the switch has so much to offer and brings people together more than any other console I've owned.

My 10 year old daughter loves this. Can take in car or play anywhere. Can play with 4 people with some games

We really enjoy our Nintendo Switch. Works great, easy to use, lots of choices for games. Great job Nintendo!

The new battery life is amazing. I bought this for my significant other for our anniversary to play the new Pokemon games on with me. During some preliminary tests right before the games release, hers outlasts my original unit by hours. So this is a much improved unit and I am debating just buying me one and gifting my old unit to a family friend or something. Plus new joy-cons always feel nice in your hands. And the colors are amazing.

I truly enjoy playing this switch with my kids. It is easy to use and there are many great games.

After the mediocrity that has been the Wii and the only slight improvement that Nintendo brought with the Wii U, I had begun to lose my extreme interest in following whatever it was Nintendo was up to at the time. When the switch was leaked I was horrified at the prospect of a console that "bridged the gap between portable and console gaming". However after the release and the long wait to find a unit, I must say I am blown away. The hand-held + portability of the console was something I didn't think I would care much for and was glad that there is the option to simply dock the switch and play on my TV in a traditional format. However I find that I am bringing my switch on the go whenever I can and am immensely enjoying the portability and power that the switch holds. The joy cons are quite comfortable and were easy to adjust quickly to. The starting line-up of games has been on the smaller end but is packed with many great hits right off the bat. Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Arms, Splatoon 2, and more are all keeping me busy for hours. And with many new games coming up this fall and next year I can't wait to see what Nintendo has in store for us this generation. Definitely recommend jumping on the Switch train now!

So far love this console! You can play retro games with your subscription. You will NEED an SD card to get more than 2-3 games. I wouod also recommend buying a controller that is easier to use and changing the controls in settings. Overall fun fun
