Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to carry to and from because of the size. Seems to have a long battery life between charging time. Overall very content with the purchase.

I would say hands down this is my favorite gaming console. I also had the Wii U and this is exactly what the Wii U should have been from the beginning. The improved battery life is AMAZING. The only downside is the graphics power versus the competition but for what It lacks here it makes up for in portability factor many times over.

This is a very nice gaming system. The games are great and what everyone has come to expect from Nintendo. The console is easy to operate. The mobile gaming option is fantastic. The only cons I’d have: it is a relatively expensive system. The joycons are slightly loose-fitting when connected to the tablet. The dock stands upright, which means the tablet must be inserted from above—this is a bit of an inconvenience when trying to make shelf-space on an entertainment console. The dock can lay flat, but the tablet does not lock securely into the dock in this configuration, which could possibly expose the tablet to being knocked out of the dock. These are minor gripes, and overall this is a very nice gaming system.

Got this as a birthday gift and I haven't stop playing it since! the fact that I can go from flat screen to hand held is the best reason for using this console. Nintendo knocked it outta the park with this one! Get one if you can you wont regret it. PS. skip the switch lite and just go with this one. BE SURE TO GET A RED BOX ONE!!!

Great purchase for the family. You can play it on the tv or handheld. Great for parties when you wanna play with multiple players. Just overall fun! Glad i was able to scoop this at best buy. Been waiting to get this for a while. Hard to get for some reason. Others are price gouging and i’m lucky to buy it at retail price.

My son love it. I love the retro games. Good quality and very versatile. Hilghly recommended.

I've been waiting to get my hands on one since the beginning of March. I absolutely love how convenient it is on the go, I can take it with me when I go to my friends so we can play together in person or when we are social distancing. The game selection is also great. Must have for anyone who wants to kill some time

The Switch is Nintendo's 7th home console since they launched the Nes/Famicom back in the '80s. After the failure of their previous console, the Wii U, (of which I own alongside a slew of other Nintendo consoles and handhelds), Nintendo seems to have gotten their magic back, and the Switch is a worldwide phenomenon. What is the Switch? The Nintendo Switch is like most traditional home gaming consoles in that it can be connected and hook up to a tv for gameplay, so as long as it's in the dock. However, unlike other home gaming consoles, it can fully function as a traditional gaming handheld device, by connecting the joy cons to the side of the console rails, similar to other Nintendo handhelds. It can also be used in tabletop mode. I purchased a few games (Smash, Xenoblade DE, Mario Kart), an online membership, and a Pro Controller, which I highly recommend, so I'm ready to play! Let's hope joy con drifting doesn't set in! All in all, as someone who's been playing Nintendo since the 64 days, I've continued to stick with them, and will do so, for as long as possible. Great job, Nintendo!

The switch is a great console because it has a docking system to hook up to the TV. It is also compact if you like to travel. It does not take up a lot of space and has exclusive games to the Nintendo franchise like Pokemon Sword and Shield and Super Smash Bros. Newer version (the one in the red box) has a longer battery life.

I'm having a lot of fun with this. The games are plentiful and there is always more coming out. Came out of the box in tip top shape and I haven't had trouble with Joy-con drift yet. It's something you can have fun with friends and family or by yourself on the big screen, a computer monitor, or just handheld.

It's kind of hard to choose the best gaming system as they each have strengths and weaknesses. But the Switch probably has the best balance. The sheer versatility of modes makes this device stand out. The game selection is good, especially the ones that use the motion controls well, which is most of them. Definitely recommend.

I enjoy playing with this Nintendo Switch. I like that I can hook it up to my television or play as a tablet. It comes with everything you will need/want. This is an excellent game system for the family. And for such a great price. I would recommend this to any family who likes to play video games together.

I bought this for my kids, I love that we can take gaming anywhere. I initially thought when buying this my kids would have to take turns, but the Switch allows the system to become 2 players. We connected at home, in the car or even at the hotels when on vacation... literally a gaming system that can fit in a fanny pack!

Impulse purchase when I saw this finally available on Best Buy still can't believe I got lucky. This console was been MIA in retail stores and I refused to pay extra if purchased somewhere else since MSRP is already expensive. Anyway, as expected I love it. It is my go to stress buster from all the anxieties during this time of pandemic. How I wish had it earlier before shelter in place. Am no gamer or techy person, setting up was easy as long as you know how to read & can follow instructions you can do it! You can either buy your games thru Nintendo's e-shop or buy from stores/online stores. Games are still on the expensive side averaging $50 depending on the game so keep your eyes open for any good deals on games out there. My must have accessories for starters like me are screen protector, case protector and of course at least one game, you might need a micro SD too due to limited memory 32GB. If you have some spare micro SD you used from your old phones or camera it will work too save your money for your games instead.

Great purchase. Daughter plays hand held in her downtime, with Animal Crossing game. She has allocated the time of day just for this particular game. I on the other-hand, workout in the morning with the Sports game. I play Tennis, Jet Ski, & Golf in Motion. We play Mario Deluxe 8 in the evening Together.

Happy with this perchance, our son enjoys playing it and it's easy to take along when traveling! Battery life is good and its easy to learn how to use!

Set up was super easy. Was a little bummed it didnt come with a large capacity SD card since you can download all your favorite games right into memory - no more losing the cartridge or DVD media! Also highly recommend a standard sized controller as the little switch controllers are teeny tiny.

The Switch is a great system for kids to learn with parents. Many family games make it fun for everyone. This is our second one because our kids decided they wanted to split the cost of another one so they could both be using them. Our three year old loved playing Mario games, especially Mario Kart.

I love my Switch! The classic games, the new games, the portability and ability to play wherever I want are just fantastic! This was one of the best investments in entertainment I've made. You'll get classic games, reboots, NES and SNES games, and a ton of fun! If you want it, get it. Don't overthink it

Excellent console, is my complmentary device for gaming, the great advantage of this console is the portability, you can play in any travel that you have and with the new model (red box one) you have a little more battery (1 and a half hour extra) and better calibrated screen a highly recommended purchase
