Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this for Christmas for my little siblings: an 8-year old and a 11-year old. Since Christmas day, this is all they have been doing. Since I bought a Switch Lite a couple of months ago, we can play together. The portability is awesome, the dock is easy to move around and set up, and it just helps lift the whole mood of the house.

Games are endless. A lot of fun and can easily take on the go.

Wonderful console, huge variety of games. Lots of amazing jrpg’s. Amazing!! Always been a huge fan of Nintendo and their handhelds. Growing up in a big family, it was the primary way I’ve always games. Now as an adult, I navigate to the switch. It’s super easy to use, lots of great titles on the go, great for personal use or multiple users.

My 8 year old son loves it. Long battery life, huge selection of games.

There's nothing quite like the Nintendo Switch. What makes it unique is that it does what its name suggests - it switches. It switches between being played like a usual console on the television and playing it as a portable handheld as well as a small portable video screen that one or multiple people can play on. Even the controllers have "switchability" and can be used in different ways. I like the Nintendo Switch because it is a neat concept and it works. So far, I've been enjoying the new Zelda game, which is incredible. I've never played Zelda much but this game is quite an open world adventure...like being in a whole other world. My kids enjoy playing 1-2 Switch with each other and guests who come over. We also enjoy playing Bomberman and Snipperclips. However, I remember the Wii U being much more enjoyable when it first came out. I don't know why that console did not do well. Maybe people just didn't know what it was or it was not promoted as well. When we got the Wii U, the game Nintendoland was such a huge hit at parties and when we have people over. You could play that for hours and still have quite a blast. And that game came with the console! The Switch has no game that comes with it. You have to shell out more $ for games to play. Also, as cool as 1-2 Switch and Bomberman are, they lose their appeal after a shorter time. The only game so far that you can play for hours is Zelda, and that's a 1 person game. Even Bomberman, which costs a lot, does not even compare to the Bomberman on the Wii U that didn't cost much at all. The Bomberman that was available for download on the Wii U had sooo many more modes and customizations that it made it a lot more fun. So my only complaint for the Switch is...what's with the lack of games? I wish they had come out with a party game that came with the console that blew everyone away - like Nintendoland for the Wii U. And there's not many games to play right now, especially with other people. I watched the commercials and it looked so fun bringing it to places where you can play with others. That's what I envisioned but I have yet to go to a random park, set that Switch on the table, and played with friends or random people, bringing the world together. If and when that day comes, then I think the Switch would have accomplished what it set out to do. Overall, I like the Switch. It's cool to have, it's new and has a neat concept and lives up to its name. Now does it live up to its potential? We'll just have to wait for more games to come out to see.

It's a really interesting piece of hardware. Not sure it's a must buy yet. It has some strong titles, but probably needs more variety and a continuation of strong releases. With that said I believe it works best as a portable. It's a little underwhelming as a home console, but extremely impressive as a device that is carried around. Get it now if you want it, but do not be surprised if the first redesign is amazing.

Great console. Love that I can play on my TV and take it on the go.

it was really good quallity and my kids loved it so much nothing was wrong with i would say that this is the perfect birthday or chrismas present for a kid or someone who likes to play video games

It was hard to find one at first, but was able to purchase one through BestBuy’s website. I bought this to upgrade from my original switch because of the improved battery life. I haven’t played long enough to notice the improvement, however for the same price it wasn’t too bad as I was already going to give my older switch to my girlfriend anyways.

We got the Nintendo switch for our family for Christmas. We are having sooo much fun playing! I love that we can play together, definitely a family friendly system. I am not disappointed in the purchase at all. I even went and bought the exercise game (sorry, I don't remember the exact name) and it is awesome!! My kiddos ages range from 21 to 5 and we all love it!

Great for on the go or at home. Has many games and can even go online.

My 7 year old saved his Christmas, birthday and chores money to buy one. After having enough $$$, it was actually difficult finding one within 250 miles. We located one, purchased online and went and picked it up. Instant hit. All our family loves it and the portability is perfect. So much easier than dragging around an entire gaming console. Limited games right now, but hoping for new releases in the near future!

Bought this for my 8 year old's birthday. She absolutely loves it! Easy to attach and detach from the console/base. Wish the handles were a little bigger. But you can purchase larger controllers.

Nice how you can take it on a road trip, great way to change the controls for multiplayer.

Nintendo spearheaded a resurgence of video games in the US market which continues to this day on the principles of their games and systems having a broad approachability, and a fun, toy-like spirit. The Switch is true to those values, being a portable system that doesn’t pretend to be anything else. Not a movie streaming device, not a social media hub, just games all the way to its core. It has a terrific pick-up-and-play magnetism and its support for couch multiplayer harkens back to when multiplayer games were fun, and not some high-stakes competitive event. Highly recommended if you fly a lot, no matter your age- the hours will melt away like a mouthful of chocolate.

This has provided a lot of fun for my kids. Have been happy with the purchase.

took a little bit longer than I wouldve liked for the pickup but I have no complains for the switch. I play mario kart on it with my fiancee all the time and we love it.

The staff is cool head & has a good customer service

Love the switch lots of great games for it and portable.

Great tool for entertaining the whole family. Love to play some video games with my daughters.
