Customer Ratings & Reviews

Happy to have been purchase a Nintendo switch so much fun you can this anywhere. Amazing graphics and lot of fun taking it anywhere when you also have carrying case. If your a Nintendo fan you won't be disappointed so much fun.

My 5y.o. son loves this game system. I like the fact that he can take it with him in the vehicle when we go on trips, and hook it up to the TV when we get to our destination or when we are at home. We have had if for a month. love it so far.

After waiting months for this to come back in stock, we made the purchase and we’re not disappointed. It’s fun for everyone, even those who aren’t very skilled at video games. There are games for every type of gamer too. Very fun!

I didn't know what the big deal was, but now that we have one, it's a wonderful console. He can instantly share the controls with someone else. It looks crystal clear both hand held and on the tv. Super easy for a kid to install.

I have been a long time gamer and I currently own a Xbox X and a PS4 Pro and I really never thought about buying a Switch until recently. I found it more intriguing than the Wii but I wasn't sure it was for me and my typical gaming preferences. I figured if I wanted to play something on the go, or play for a quick few minutes, I would just use my iPad or phone. However, I soon got tired of most iPad/phone games being 'free' games with a ton of ads or having to pay micro-transactions to do anything. I much prefer just paying once upfront for a game and not be held back by not paying money. Also, very few of those games I found I enjoyed for any amount of time. So as I thought about it I started to think how nice it would be to have a console-like experience on the go or just something I could pick up to play for 10 minutes anywhere in the house. So after about a week or so of consideration, and reading a couple recent articles of why people love their Switch, I decided that it might be something that would fill the gaming 'gap' So I picked up a Switch and I have owned it for about 3-4 weeks now and I have enjoyed it. I have only used it as a portable and have not hooked it up to the large TV yet. Like I had envisioned it is great to sit on the couch and get in a few minutes of Zelda, or some other game, without going to the other TV and fire up one of the consoles. I look forward being able to bring it on the plane as well instead of having to play Candy Crush or some other lame game to waste time. So here are what I see being a few pluses and minuses: Pluses: +portability - it's best feature! +better games than what can be had on other portable devices +very quick start-up/load times +comes with the dock to play on the TV. Most companies (i.e. Apple or Microsoft) would probably have charged separately for it. +quality first party games (Zelda, Mario, etc) Minuses: - battery life is okay at about 2.5 - 3 hrs - need to buy another power supply if you don't want to always charge it in the dock. Otherwise you have to unplug the dock to bring the cable to charge it somewhere else. - need a screen protector and a carrying case - screen could be a tad higher resolution - charging port on the bottom is not a great design choice if you want to charge and play - Charging cable could be longer for charging while playing - Charging cable plug could have been smaller and with retractable prongs so it is easier to pack on the go - Kickstand when not playing as a handheld is flimsy. Why didn't they at least add a second one or put a wider one in the middle? So while there are more 'minuses' they are not deal breakers and are more observances/annoyances than anything. So overall the Switch is a great for those that are used to a high end gaming experience but want something portable. I will say though that if I had to choose 1 of the 3 consoles to play, all things equal, the Switch would be 3rd on the list. However, the Switch versus other portable options it would be 1st by a landslide.

Nintendo didn’t disappoint with this one. The switch is a must have console for every household, especially in a household with children. The graphics are amazing. It’s easy to use and set up. And you can play old Mario games.

Great system for a great value. Much more kid friendly games for beginning gamers learning the basics of controllers.

Keeps the kids distracted , able to take with me anywhere i go, cheap compared to orher things ,

I purchase this for my godkids and this is all they play when they come home from school.

The benefit of being able to take this anywhere and play is great. I ended up buying an SD card and power bank to increase the portability. With more 3rd party games, all Nintendo needs is better a better online service and a virtual console. I would definitely recommend to others.

This is the go to system for a handheld. Bonus is you can potentially connect to your tv and play off it if you don’t want to play handheld. Like how it has the option to separate the joy cons and or use an external remote.

My 9 year old son loves it. He has a variety of games he can use it to play

this was well worth the purchase. the whole family enjoys being able to detach the joycons and play together.

Easily the best console purchase so far. I play excessive amounts of video games so I love being able to pickup and continue playing without any special setup. I no longer have to save and load the game elsewhere when my Gf wants to watch The Office for a bit. Seamless transitions.

Absolutely love how this system is put together and how convenient it is for game play. Have taken it with me to several functions and got to play during down time. Then went back at home with the docking station and playing on the big screen right where I left off. Brilliant idea!

This console has been a life saver during all of this free time. The ui is simple and attractive, the catalogue of games is beautiful, and being able to switch really is wonderful. To my surprise, I play in table top mode most of the time.

Overall, I'm very pleased with the switch. The system has been operating well and Breath of the Wild is amazing to play. I also like that the default controller can be used as two separate controllers for 2-player games. Also impressed with how quickly the device goes to sleep and wakes up right into game play where you left off. Main complaint so far is that the left joy-con had some intermittent connectivity issues where it would become unresponsive for a few seconds at a time. That being said, I called Nintendo Support and they had it fixed within 3 business days free of charge (sent it in for repair on Monday, got it back Thursday morning).

Excellent product. Easy installation. Live the fact you can play old games.

Must have for every Nintendo fan. Young and old! Perfect for playing with your family and friends or on your own. If you sign up for Nintendo Online which is only $20 for a full year, you have access to classic NES and SNES games for free!

My enjoys this device alot, he brings it with him on roadtrips and it has been great! Holds a good portion of games also.
