Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Pros: Portable, Nintendo exclusives, 3rd party support will surely come The Cons: Least powerful console, plastic screen prone to scratches, joycon is not an ideal gamepad, you'll spend more money on necessary accessories More cons than pros, but I still recommend it. The portability alone makes it unique. Back in the days, gamers would get together and actually play games and socialize in person, but online multiplayer gaming has made that less possible. Nintendo Switch brings the people together to play games. It feels really good to be able to come visit my friend in person and play together on our own Switches; the same feeling I have when I brought my 3DS to his home. This is a big reason to own the Switch and it may appeal to the more outgoing gamers than the ones who play games in the dark while being alone at home in their rooms. Humans are social animals which need to socialize in person, so the Switch satisfies this need. With that really important point that it's portable, plus Nintendo exclusives and promises of 3rd party support to come, I'm sold on it, and you should be, too.

Fun and made a great birthday present. Sauron it is before the walls of Minaa Truth, the doom of our time will be decided. Now is the hour, riders of Rohan, oaths you have taken, now fufill them all, to Lord and land

Great value. I love this system and all the cool games

Excellent console to have the power to be handheld, tabletop, and and in tv mode! Also, great game selection.

My 10 year old daughter loves this. Can take in car or play anywhere. Can play with 4 people with some games

Excelent item love it best consule for kids having fun with it

We really enjoy our Nintendo Switch. Works great, easy to use, lots of choices for games. Great job Nintendo!

I really enjoy playing this both on the go and at home on the TV, the quality is great, the games are getting better and it looks great.

The switch is perfect for family fun nights! The whole family loves this gaming console!

Works great, easy to travel with, good game options.

This is a great console for families. Easy to use and new extended battery life on recently released model is a plus.

It has been over a year since we bought this product and our daughter loves it. Now she can share with her brother. It is very handy.

The new battery life is amazing. I bought this for my significant other for our anniversary to play the new Pokemon games on with me. During some preliminary tests right before the games release, hers outlasts my original unit by hours. So this is a much improved unit and I am debating just buying me one and gifting my old unit to a family friend or something. Plus new joy-cons always feel nice in your hands. And the colors are amazing.

My third switch in the household. Nintendo switch is the best system in my book. Great graphics, the best games and portable to boot! The only down side I have seen is the quality. The quality of the hardware is poor compared to other Nintendo hardware. Drifting joycons ( can easily be cleaned with some know how ) cracks in the vents, one of the units fans had to be replaced! It's a great system. But im hoping Nintendo fixes these issues.

I truly enjoy playing this switch with my kids. It is easy to use and there are many great games.

Great game console. Easy setup and kids are enjoying it.

Switch is super easy to set up, super fun to play and an amazing pass time for when you have friends over.

I love the Switch. I got it for my son's birthday, but we enjoy it together. It's versatile, so we can play on our TV, or he can play by himself. I forgot how much I missed playing Mario Kart!

I grew up playing Nintendo consoles and games but moved away from them for others like the Xbox and PlayStation. Mostly because that's were all the good games were at. But ever since they announced this device Nintendo had peaked my interest. Suffice to say that, although this console isn't as powerful as the Xbox one or ps4, it's amazing. The fact that you can play console games on the go with good resolution, and pop it into the TV at anytime, makes this console worth buying. Not to mention they have excellent games.

Yes, this is a console that works in both the TV and while traveling. Games are full HD and look like a home console game when using a TV or in the touchscreen. Games like Zelda Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey are the must haves. Second to that Splatoon 2 and Mario Kart Deluxe are fun multiplayer choice in my opinion. There are other games that are less advertised such as Skyrim, Street Fighter, Resident Evil and a large List of what looks like Indie Games on the eShop. I gave it a 4 stars because of a number of things. Buying more controllers are more expensive now than previous generations, storage is still 32GB (though with microSD you can store up to 2TB), cloud features for saving progress are lacking and virtual console for legacy games is lacking as well. But all of these didn’t stop me from buying the system, so Nintendo must be doing something right ;) Overall, the whole idea of what this console wants to accomplish is the one thing I like above the other Home consoles. It is portable like a gameboy and useful as a home console, no matter the user preference.
