Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Nintendo Switch is a great portable and console gaming system for all ages. Going from docked to portable is super simple and seamless. My only gripe is the battery life as most games last typically between 2-4 hours on a single charge. However, charging is very simple and quick as the system uses a USB-C charging port. The Switch is great for long car or plane rides as well and usually catches other people's attention. More games will be coming, but the selection out there will certainly keep you busy for at least a few weeks without flinching. I would also highly recommend getting the Pro Controller if you are used to gaming on other consoles. Using the Joy-cons is really only great for handheld gaming, not prolonged docked use. Highly recommended.

I can talk about how nicely it feels on your hands. How "premium" it looks. How great Zelda, Splatoon 2 and Xenoblade 2 are. How snappy the OS is. All of those things are true, but they miss the point. What Switch has done for me is give me my hobby back. With the home-mobile being so seamless, so instantaneous, I've played more games for more hours on Switch this year than last 3-5 years of gaming combined. Switch feels like a device for adults in that it fits into my lifestyle, and not the other way around. We've already bought a second in my house.

Easy to use, lots of fun. Dad and kids play for hours. They can play alone as doubles or link up and play with groups of kids.

The switch shifts easily between a console and a handheld like no other device before it. Good selection of games too.

I’m not much of a gamer. I don’t play Xbox, or pc games, or PlayStation much. I’m not good with all those buttons on those systems. And to be fair, I only play Zelda. Breath of the wild. It’s perfect for someone who grew up on the legend of Zelda, and Donkey Country...a Super Nintendo boy. The graphics are great! Love the size, how easy it fits in my hands. And I’ve yet to connect to my tv for game play on a large 4K tv. I’ve waited 3 years to purchase a Switch. But I’m glad I finally did! On a side note, I was surprised that it was a bit difficult to find one in stock. When I found in stock at my local Best Buy, they were closed. So I was there first thing in the morning, only to have a little girl of probably 6 on line in front of me with her parents. Needless to say, she got the last one in stock there. Thankfully, there was one at another Best Buy near by. And I am proud owner of my third Nintendo gaming system in the three decades that I’ve been playing video games. Well done Nintendo!

Great game for kids!!! Easy to learn to play!!! Battery last a long time and charged fast!! Grandson loves it!!

I purchased this or shall I say Santa purchase this for my step-son this Christmas. Wii console actually having an LCD screen and being standalone while also being able to plug into the TV and something new and improved for any old school gamer like myself. The games are very fluid and I'd have not noticed any real lag. In comparison to the other consoles such a PlayStation or the Xbox you will obviously see a degradation in video quality however the trade-off in portability is worth while.

this thing is a beauty and a beast as well. so much fun playing the games on this, especially ring fit adventure; wow

I love the switch. I got the neon color way because the grey one looked really boring in person. I got the console to play BOTW and it is amazing. I primarily play it docked, but am surprised about how often I play it in portable mode. Joycons have no issue and the battery life is pretty good. I have heard awesome things about the pro controller, but have yet to get one. I would recommended that you buy a screen protector though. Also, if you want to charge it on-the-go then you will also need a USB type A to USB type C cable (there is not one provided).

I waited to pick up the switch till Mario Odyssey and it was worth the wait. I love how portable the system is and how easy it is to dock to my tv/computer monitor. It was easy to set up and feels great in my hands. The screen is a good size but isn’t as nice as say my tv or computer monitor. My only gripe is the cradle in which you dock your switch is made of hard plastic. I’m afraid it’s gonna scratch my screen if I’m not careful. All in all I would recommend this to anyone who wants to play some games on the go or wants to play Nintendo’s great games!

I had the original switch and love that they extended the battery life. Only wish this had Bluetooth and bigger memory.

The Nintendo Switch changes the game. Cool multiplayer possiblities, great portability and with a strong set of Franchise Games this will be great.

Loved it! Nintendo Switch is the best, great to spend time with friends

Dont waste your money on switch 2 just get this instead.

The *updated* Nintendo Switch does not disappoint. As compared to my launch day Switch, all the major problems, both software and hardware, have been addressed. Furthermore, the longer battery life comes in handy when using the device in portable mode. I found myself able to play Skyrim on the 5 hour flight to Hawaii (from California) with the battery carrying me through. Exact usability may vary, but I for one and pleasantly pleased with the updated model. Looking forward to limited editions now.

I’ve owned many different consoles over the years and this by car meets all my expectations. Big screen playing to hand held playing is seemless and doesn’t skip a beat. The play time is about 2-3 hours handheld before having to dock and the controllers themselves have over 3 hours of play time so it’s just amazing. Only flaw I’ve found is that the switch doesn’t have Hulu or Netflix or Internet. If it did I wouldn’t have to worry about switching my hdmi outputs buuuuuut I hear this might come later on so I’ll hold my breath for now on the matter.

The switch is a lot of fun but currently with limited games. So far I only have Zelda and Mario Kart and don't see any reason to purchase anything else for it, but those two are great. The system itself works flawlessly and the portability of it is awesome. Great for taking on trips or for killing some time during slow periods at work!

Been a nintendo fan for as long as I can remember. Love the portability and the games I play on the device.

Great to use with tv or handheld. Nintendo always makes the best games like animal crossing and Luigi's Mansion 3

I️ bought this for my granddaughter. She was so surprised. She loves it and I️ bought extra controls so 4 people can play at the same time. Great
