Customer Ratings & Reviews

Picked this up and a couple of kid/family games. They device is great—super easy to setup and transfers back and forth between TV play and handheld seamlessly.

The battery life last long! Amazing on the go as well as great game system when docked as well. Compared to the last model for the switch this model is highly recommended.

Bought this for my son and he loves it. He can take it anywhere with him, play in the car, restaurant or just at home on the tv.

The ability to swap between a portable and a docked mode is something every console should have. While it's not as powerful as an Xbox or PlayStation, the Switch is still a very capable system. My only nitpick is the tiny joy-cons, but there are Nintendo and aftermarket controllers available that make up for this minor (IMO) shortcoming. I am completely satisfied with my Switch and have no reservations suggesting it to anyone looking for a new console. (Keep in mind, there's a new model on the horizon - you might wanna hold off and see what that one's got in store!)

LOVE the switch. It reminds me of the Gamecube console. Bringing me back to my youth. The remotes are obviously very small when holding them individually. It's a little uncomfortable but still works. I am also a little bummed that after a few years it does not have access to Netflix nor does it have disney+. Hoping that'll change in the near future.

A great product that offers so much entertainment and convenience for the price! The selection of games available for this console are great, and many are wholesome enough to enjoy as a family together. Who doesn't like playing a character like Mario one minute then doing Zumba the next? The upcoming games also look promising. I like this product a lot!

If you got the 2nd iteration of the console (indicated by the background color on the box is completely red), you can pretty much play this for 5-6 hours as opposed to 2-3. Totally worth it, even if you have the first generation model that has its own secret perks if it's a launch model. Personally, I'd still choose this over the Lite model since you get a lot of value for $300. A set of Joycons are $80, and the dock itself is $60, and you're getting all of these right out of the box. Plus you still have the option of playing your games on the big screen. The only tradeoff is the console's LCD isn't as good as the Lite's.

I own all the consoles, but this one ended up being way better than I expected. The games are great, and the portability makes it something I wish the PSP was.

Amazing system for kids and casual gamers. Easy to hook up and operate. The Switch is my wife's favorite system because she can access all her favorite NES and SNES games. It's Lightweight, easy to transport, and can be used standalone as a handheld so it's also become our go-to system to take with us on family vacations.

I got it for someone and he says he really loves it.

I started on a game boy pocket when I was 4, and I knew about the great home consoles, such as the PlayStation and the n64. But what blew me away was the fact that I could take games on the go and play them whenever I go...as long as the batteries lasted. I didn't care it was greyscale colors or that it didn't even come with a built in light; that made it more of a fun challenge riding in the car after sunset. Now the switch is combining what I loved or portable gaming with the power of current home gaming. And yes it doesn't output 4K. I don't care, cuz the 1080p on my tv AND even the 720p on its own screen still look great! Yes it only has 32 GB storage built in (25.9 after UI), but the cartridges are just like the game boy games and save them on tonthe catridge. Again the benefits of portable gaming. And yes we'll grow out the battery issue into the battle field here. 2.5-6 hours...I don't care! Because this gives me a good reminder when I run low on battery to let it charge and I can go do somwtrhing else instead of being staying inside he whole time. Nintendo encourages gaming with friends and even doing other things with friends as well. Plus I love the joy cons! Easy to use and switch around and the dock works well too. Kickstand really helps for gaming on the go and sharing as well. Kudos nintendo! And can't wait for the great announced games either.

Great gaming product that keeps you entertained for fours at a time, high quality performance and graphics, long battery life and easy and sleek enough for easy handling

I’ve wanted one of these forever and we were finally able to get one and couldn’t be happier. We love this

I was not expecting much when I decided to try out the Nintendo Switch. In my mind Nintendo was trying something "new" like they have with their last few generations of consoles. I am glad to say that this time it really paid off. They did really well with the seemlessly switching between the bigscreen and the screen on the tablet for on the go play. The graphics are also very stunning from what I saw while playing Breathe of the Wild and 1 2 Switch. Which brings me to my next point, though the console does everything it says it does very well, the Joy-cons, don't worry they do everything they said they would do, are a little awkward to use. Even with the nice dock that you can use while playing on the big screen is a little awkward. Some of the buttons, specifically the + and - buttons are to close to other buttons or sticks and make them awkward to hit, or you hit the wrong button frequently. On top of that I don't know if many game developers will actually incorporate some of the gimicks of the Joy-Con. I mean the HD rumble sticks in the controllers were really cool when they were use in 1 2 Switch, but I can't really see many developers having a use for them, though this is just purely speculation. Finally the Joy-Cons have a single fault in my opinion. They must have an unobscured line of sight to the switch console or they will stop responding properly. There were various times where I had my feet up or my knee blocking the controllers direct path, because who doesn't like to get comfy while playing a game, and the joy-con stopped responding to my inputs or continues with my last input. This caused me to walk off of a few cliffs as well as die to a couple of moblins, but this also isn't the worst thing in the world either. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my time playing the Switch, and like I said I really was not expecting the machine that I got to play.

I got this for my sons birthday and he and his brother have so much fun with it. They use it everyday and don’t want to put it down. It is great quality and easy to use!

Been thinking about getting this item since it first came out. This purchase was made for my son, but my wife and I play it as well. Great games and the fact that it can travel with you is a plus.

I ordered this and expected it to be a mediocre console like all the other ones, basic graphics and functions. It turns out that this little tablet thing with red and blue remotes is much more than that! I’ve been playing on it for about 8 days now and I’m finding it difficult to put down to do something else, and thanks to its portable function, I can hook it up to my tv, or take it with me

It's a great size product. It's versatile, portable and quite affordable and very awesome.

We absolutely love our switch! I’d been wanting one for so long and the times I was willing to pull the trigger on one, they were sold out or hard to come by. We were bummed we couldn’t get a bundle console, but that’s okay. We’ve already had a lot of fun with it and look forward to getting a bunch more games!

Yep, the switch is like the wii but now you can take it on the go. There are fun games, had a great time playing old school snes and nes games with my kids.
