Customer Ratings & Reviews

My family loves this system and its great as a stress reliever.

The Best Buy team assisted me in purchasing an item for my kids, even though it was listed as out of stock on their website. They found the product and helped me with the online purchase. They also informed me of the closest store where I could pick it up within an hour's distance. It was such an easy same-day process—great job, everyone!

Got this as an early Christmas present for my teenage son. Many stores were out of these on Black Friday, but no problem to order online from Best Buy and just pick it up. But that's not why you're reading this review. The game is usable all by itself with the included screen or hooked up to a TV with an HDMI cable. There's virtually no difference in gameplay between the two modes, I was afraid the game's screen might have a little lag, but that wasn't the case. Battery life is pretty good, especially considering the graphics and things happening in the games. lAdmiditally, we got this unit early in its life, so there isn't a huge variety of games yet. But we're very happy with the selection that's out now and know more games are in the pipeline. The games on the Switch are a bit more tame than on an Xbox to PlayStation, so that makes this a good choice for younger kids. Of course, it's great for amyone who wants high-quality gaming on the go. All in all, very satisfied with the product and the buying experience at Best Buy.

Great game to play with the family lots of games to enjoy spending time together

My kid loves the console.it's easy to use, portable, easy to connect and functional. Great gift.

This has been a blast for our pre-teen. He enjoys the multi-player options that exist with the small controllers, and how portable it is. The games he has he really enjoys and we've had to set limits on its use because he would play 24x7 if given the opportunity.

The Nintendo Switch has taken over as my son's favorite system. Our Xbox one rarely gets played anymore. Though the switch died connect to the TV, I find that my son and from what I hear, his friends, prefer to play handheld. Obviously it's also great for road trips. I was able to get it at a time when it was sold out everywhere but Best Buy was restocked and delivered it promptly! Weber had it a few months now, with no issues. The battery life is good and the gameplay is fantastic. My only concern is I didn't originally get a protection plan to do I used the chat to add it. While the customer service rep told me I am now covered, I have never received any confirmation on documentation for the protection play. Luckily, Best Buy's website emails the chat transcript, so I do have that as proof should any issues arise

This was an excellent gift for my cousin. He really enjoys playing games and this was his favorite gift!

Awesome system! It has great games and it is great to be able to bring it on the go. I primarily use the Switch docked, but it is great to be able to bring it along. The first party games are the best and it is continuously getting more and more third party support.

The Switch is a great little console/handheld hybrid. It works great on the go and connected to the TV. One concern is Nintendo being Nintendo as they tend to go against what Microsoft/Sony have established as gaming standards (online communities, achievements, etc). I also hope there is plenty of first party games coming down the road as Zelda is a true masterpiece and if other games follow that trend they have a bright future. But currently the games are really limited, so if you're not buying Zelda, I'm not really sure what you are going to play. The move to cartridges is also interesting as this will limit how powerful they can make games, but if Zelda is anything to measure on things look good. Also, beware the left Joy-Con bug. If you have anything between you and the Switch it can act weird when connected to the controller dock (even if your leg or something is in between). The Switch is a brilliant design and everything works well as far as various Joy-Con configurations (attached, detached, sideways, play on TV, attached to grip, etc). As a previous owner of the Wii and Wii U, I feel much better owning a Switch at first than I did with those consoles.

following the tradition of Nintendo entertainment system in my family, i got this console for my daughter and she absolutely loves the Nintendo switch!! i also get to play my favorite games from back in my day.....

Olemed it brand new and everything runs pretry quickly

Love the switch, enjoy playing old Nintendo games. Graphics are amazing.

My son loves it. I cant be more happier. It has some free games as well.

So the new Nintendo switch is out and well at this point in time its really not much to look at with a lack of variety of impressive launch titles I can't complain much there because all you need right now the legend of Zelda.... But a great multiplayer game should have been available too. Unfortunately there's also an annoying joy con issue that likes to randomly disconnect from the system. The is a fix our out now but that requires sending in the joycon. There's also the lack of virtual console and many other things that will eventually be available. Otherwise I'm really enjoying the new console and enjoy playing whether on the tv or handheld mode..... Coming soon Mario kart 8 deluxe!

Wonderful gift for my grandson he loves it can’t put it down

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

I’ve had years of fun playing this game system. Worth every penny!

Great fun for the whole family! It's great how you can either just play with the switch as a handheld screen device or you can hook it up to the tv! The controllers are a little on the small side put you eventually get use to it.

So fun and easy to use handheld is very smotth and convenient
