Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had been monitoring Best Buy for a Nintendo Switch, and when one became available for order I quickly bought it. My pick up date was about 3 weeks, but ultimately it came in early so I waited about a 1 and 1/2. Picking it up at the store was quick and easy. A great experience overall! Plus all of the e-mailed videos from best Buy with info on set up and other features was great, too!

I was a latecomer to the Switch. I did the whole GameCube and Wii thing. Skipped the Wii-U and (until now) the Switch. Mainly because I assumed it would be Nintendo's usual *slightly less powerful* console offering that they had done for the previous 3 generations. While it's true that in many of the titles shared between the consoles, you probably aren't going to be able to match the graphics quality of the PS4 or XBOX One in a side by side comparison, games can be beautiful and fun without needing photo realistic models. Nintendo has always had a way of taking its exclusives and flagships and producing visually stunning artistic landscapes (Zelda is just awesome) and pairing them with original scores that perfectly convey the emotions and mood of the moment. Most of the titles available on the more powerful systems are also available for the Switch (The Witcher 3, Red Dead Online, CoD, Battlefield). There may be reduced graphics compared to the others, but only enough to allow smooth gameplay. In my opinion, unless you are playing the same title on multiple consoles, the differences are unnoticeable while immersed in playing. The fact you can dock/undock without stopping your game, its compact size paired with a large screen, along with all the other little conveniences it has far outweigh a few slightly lower res shadows or textures.

What a great gaming system. It’s a portable as well as a console. Great game selection.

Easy to install and play with. The price is good for the system but the games are expensive.

Works great, fun to play. Keeps everyone happy. Just as expected from nintendo.

I love that I can take this everywhere and all the games make this even better!!!

We have an Xbox one but the new switch definitely fills a need. The games are great and the portability is awesome.

What more to say. This is the best console for my 10 and 6 year old. We have about 12 games by now and extra controllers. We love it. Animal Crossing is their favorite and they play it everyday. Hardware is marvelous and updates are easy to install. Everything is pretty intuitive and kids figure it all out pretty quick. Just let the adults set up the docking station to the tv.

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

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

My 4 year old son loves it. Connecting it to our TV was simple and the year subscription is SO worth it for $49 bucks.

I purchased this as a gift for someone that is very familiar with the Switch already. The quality and fun of this console is really high. I slightly prefer the regular Switch over the Switch Lite because it can be plugged into into television. This updated version has a better battery life per charge and everything else about it is just as great as the original console version.

They have been sold out everywhere but somehow I was lucky enough to snag one of these from the Best Buy website. I had it delivered due to the pandemic changing most store policies. It came brand new and without a flaw! I’ve been playing it almost everyday since I got it. I was considering a switch lite but I’m glad I waited because having the ability to play it on the tv is worth the extra money.

I hesitate for a while before I decide to buy a switch because most of games are indie games and third-party supports are poor. Now switch has plenty of third party supports. The exclusive games are unparalleled. The best thing of switch for me is that you can immerse yourself into the gaming world instantly, much faster than other consoles. This feature is game-changing if you sometimes feel reluctant to go through unnecessary trouble to open a game after all day's work.

This is so good product, good delivered, good price

Great console, the controllers are cheaply made, very portable and convenient

Still just so much fun and fun for the family and i hear this one opposed to the oled can be better because something is going on with the new oled controllers so im excited.

Solid system for on the go fun. Love being able to play my favorite games wherever I may be. Looking forward to getting the accessories for it. Screen protector and travel case!

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

Pretty self explanatory. Awesome console. Great portable gaming option too.
