Customer Ratings & Reviews

i have hours of fun love the quality of many videogames

Brand speaks for itself. Haven't purchased a console new since the GameCube came out. Quite pleased with the Switch. Options for popular and indie games are a-plenty.

An amazing video game for an adult and kids, we all enjoy playing super Mario, easy to carry and easy to set up so far we are happy with this video game

These have been scarce for a bit, hopped on an opportunity to buy one; once the Best Buy app notified me. Our family loves all the various Mario Brothers games.

We have been eyeing this console for a couple of years. Each time we decided this is the year they were very hard to find around Christmas. With our kids being a bit older now the switch seems to have many kid friendly options for games and interactions so we finally got our hands on one. Too bad I missed the bundle with Mario Kart but still a great deal compare to other consoles.

This is one of the best handheld systems out there ever! With the added benefit of being able to play on the big screen. You don't even lose capability from the TV to on the go the gameplay is the same.

Surprised my husband with this for our 7th anniversary and he loves it! He's so happy that he finally has a Switch. Was packaged well. Pick up was painless.

It's a great system....in need of a refresh. Nintendo got it right making a portable console system. I like playing on tv....until I go to bed, then can take with me. Performance wise though....it needs an update. Most games are stripped down or run poorly for current AAA's titles. Screen is low res. Keep the design, but time to fix the flaws.

My son loves his new Nintendo Switch. He enjoys playing fortnite.

The new switch has a much longer battery life than the old one. Still has a great sleek design and can play all your favorite games on the go. Now you can just play them longer.

Great product, I play every day with my kids and they love it

Great piece of intuitive, mobile gaming technology they've got here. I only wish the output was a higher resolution (maximum 1280 x 720) when in console mode (plugged into its cradle, and playing on a television screen). It's battery life varies greatly based on the demands of the game you're playing. The device compensates this inconvenience by charging relatively quickly. I'm an adult gamer, and only purchased it to pass the time while I was in the hospital. It's a great product for gamers on the go, entertaining yourself while traveling, and on down times - geared primarily for younger users. It still doesn't beat a regular console in game variety or quality, but if you must be on the go - it's a must have.

Wanted the new OLED model, but it’s nearly impossible to find as a working adult who doesn’t have time to scour the news for drops while trying to compete with all the scalpers. I refuse to pay more than retail price so I settled for this model and saved a few $’s doing it. The console is quite fun, more so than I expected. My kids and I are having a lot of fun with it. My only complaints are minor. 1. The shoulder buttons L & R on the Joy Cons are too easy press by accident while simply trying to hold the console. I find that I’m pushing them often by accident. The Pro controller takes care of this problem when using the console docked. 2. It still surprises me that Nintendo is still charging the same price for this console as they did when it launched several years ago. Other console makers gradually reduce the prices on their consoles as the hardware ages, but not Nintendo… There’s rumors swirling that their next console could release within the next 1-2 years. 3. Their first-party controllers (Joy Cons and wireless Pro controller) are more expensive compared to Xbox S and PS4 controllers and yet do not feel as well-built, especially the Joy Cons.

a blast from the past! we have had so much fun playing Mario Kart and Tony hawk!

Very fun when you’re on the go or on roadtrips. You’re able to multiplay with friends and play online. Lots of access to hundreds of games.

Who needs another rave review of the Switch? I've owned every major video game system and many minor ones since the early 90's, this one is solidly ahead of the pack but from strictly a hardware standpoint, I wouldn't put it on top. It does everything it promises to, but it's the least excited I've been for a console since well, I bought a WiiU. While I'm glad Nintendo made something that indie developers are able to port their games to, at this point I know I'm only ever buying a Nintendo console to play a handful of first party games. That experience so far, has been phenomenal, and recommending Zelda and Mario isn't necessary, that is why you're getting a Switch in mid-2018. But I can't help but feel like for $300 this is hard to recommend over a cheaper Xbox One S if I only had to have one system. It gets even harder to stomach when you factor in the $70+ controllers and the $60 Nintendo games that almost never go on sale. I suppose it depends on who you are, where you are in life and what you want out of a gaming console, but the Switch feels like a compromise as a portable system and as a home console. The system itself just doesn't have the same build quality that I would expect from Nintendo hardware, it reminds me of a cheap Android tablet. The Wii and WiiU felt like they were made with nicer build materials, the matte plastic all over this bad boy and the dock are just kind of stale. This is an easy 5 star at $200 which it will inevitably get to, but this version of the console feels like the original fat DS to me and I'm looking forward to the DS Lite equivalent for the Switch.

This switch was a replacement switch for one that were bought in July. The original one did not even make it 4 months, and we hardly used it during those four months (maybe less than 15 times). It was obviously a manufacturer's issue. Because we bought the warranty, they were able to replace it with a brand new one, BUT I had to purchase a new service warranty gwith the new switch. You would think that Nintendo would stand behind their product and replace the original even if I didn't have the warrenty. I'm hoping this replacement does not have the same issue bc we bought a game that my son loves, and he had been playing with the switch EVERY DAY. It's heady that it's portable and that you can play with more than one person even in its portable move. Now that the kids are using it, I would have to say that this was a good investment

I have three boys and they all love to play video games. But they all have different things they’re into, so they rarely play together. Games like Mario Kart and Smash Bros has them playing some brotherly competition. The switch is portable which is great. It’s one of the features I like and I like that the controllers are rechargeable. It’s a great buy.

Although I would not recommend getting this system early I believe this is a great investment of my money as it has many promising games releasing later this year alone. Although not as powerful as other modern day consoles I believe it's portability more than makes up for it. The fact that two controllers come standard with each system is great for quick sessions of local multiplayer anywhere in games such as 12 Switch, Super Bomberman R, Fast Racing RMX, Shovel Knight, and many more.

Bought it for a gift, my little cousin love it the best part is that you can connect it to a TV and take the small device to go, great gift he loved it
