Customer Ratings & Reviews

So many fun games to choose from. Used mostly as handheld, but its great to have the functionality to display everything on a big tv.

This system has great games for many age groups, and the online service is pretty cheap and worth it. I'm very glad I bought this :)

I hesitated when I first thought about buying the Switch (right when it came out), because I just wasn't sure that the quality would be there... months later I read more reviews and decided to buy. I am NOT disappointed. We've had so much fun with the system and the graphics are great. I LOVE that we can now subscribe to Switch Online and play all the classics like Zelda and Mario 3.

Pros: Another solid system from Nintendo. There is a large catalog of games to suit most ages and they look great. Portability is great. Zelda: Breath of the Wild! Cons: Docking station is a bit cheaply made. Battery life is not that great even in this v2 model. Not all previous purchases from Nintendo shop transfer to Switch.

It’s a switch - so what’s not to like? My entire family has been enjoying this purchase. My son and husband have been loyal to the xbox for years, but my husband has been thrilled to return to Nintendo (feels like childhood). I used site to store - delivery was on time and pick up was a breeze. No complaints!

It’s for my son’s birthday, he was so happy with that since so hard to get it anywhere, thank you Best Buy I can order from them!

As a lifelong gamer, Nintendo is synonymous with great games. The Nintendo Switch doesn't disappoint. Breadth of the Wild is a great experience that brings me back to Zelda Ocarina of Time. Mario Kart is good family fun as is other titles on the system. Worth the money especially if you like to game and travel a lot for business.

As I get older and responsibilities continue to take over my gaming time it's been harder and harder to commit to long term RPG and extended story line games. BUT the Nintendo switch lets me take that experience on the road and play daily on my commute and make progress without weeks in between sessions but still take the experience to the big screen in the comfort of my home when time permits! Amazing system!

I've been a huge Nintendo fan for awhile. I've always really enjoyed portable gaming and this system has been perfect for me. In another year, when this system has a huge library, it could quite possibly be my favorite system of all time. Playing games on the tv and handheld mode has just been awesome. It's absolutely seemless. If you have the cash to spend and haven't touched Zelda yet, do it. Like yesterday.

Good and fun games. My family loves to play together at get together

Console launches are always a little rocky and it basically comes down to buying on future potential. For the switch, the game lineup is completely barren outside of Zelda and it's looking like the next notable games won't be until summer (splatoon 2) and later this year (mario odyssey). So if you're a potential buyer right NOW, the question boils down to how badly do you want to play Zelda? Because as awesome as that game is, it's likely all the action your switch will see for months. As for the actual hardware it's hard to recommend right now as many things on it feel half baked or shortsighted. For example the docking bay comes with no padding on it and it can lead to small scratches on the border of the screen if you're not careful (and sometimes even if you are). You also have to hope your dock isn't bent inwards near the top like many people seem to be getting, which enhances the chances of scratches happening. The lone kickstand on the back of the tablet feels flimsy and since there's only 1 it doesn't offer the best balance. Looking at the back they could have easily fit a 2nd kickstand parallel to the other which would have improved this issue a lot. The operating system right now is basically just there. There's very few online or social features that you likely have grown to expect thanks to the other consoles and while this may be fixed in future updates there's no way to be certain with Nintendo. They have a rep for being a little behind the times in this area. It's not all bad though. For all the issues the system has, one thing it does right is arguably the most important thing and that's the portability of the console. I can play zelda on my TV and take the tablet out of the dock and the game immediately transitions to the tablet so I can keep playing. The ads didn't mislead here, it really does work and it's hard to say it's not impressive. A lot of the problems with the console can be fixed over time, but if this didn't work without caveats then the system would be doomed as it's the entire idea behind the Switch. The fact that the swapping out works so well, and that Zelda really is a game that needs to be experienced, is why I put 3 stars instead of 1 or 2. If you're ok with the game lineup for 2017 then I'd say it's ok buying the system now.

These are bullet proof. This was a gift and the person i bought it for has been using it solid. A little to much but he loves it!

The game has great graphics for a handheld and good graphics when transferred to a television , Charger port for tv system does seem a little cheaply made though.

So far I am really happy with the Switch, which I pre-ordered along with Zelda through Best Buy and picked up on launch day. The system was virtually plug-and-play right out of the box, and the initial system update and game load times with the Switch are virtually instantaneous, compared to the nightmarish update/load times of the Wii U. The system itself is sleek and looks great docked, and when playing portable, it is easy to handle and not heavy. That being said, not sure I want to take it out of the house, given the cost. I do not think it is really fair to review at this stage, with such a sparse launch-day lineup of games, with no pack-in title or much downloadable content from the Nintendo eShop. Thus far I am enjoying Zelda, and have found it hard to put the system down. So I'll give 4 stars, and hope for more content soon!

Great console, lots of games to enjoy, carrying around is easy and last a few hours.

The Switch is a fun console, even though there isn't much released for it yet. Buy the Zelda game and wait for others, because the gaming experience is fun with it.

This is an awesome gaming console. It's high quality and has a lot of fantastic games. It's addicting and I can't put it down.

Really glad I caught this Nintendo Switch on bestbuy's website when they randomly restocked. It is a great console for people to spend quality time on. I also like how it is very easy to set up and has a lot of cool game options as well. I wish Nintendo included a game with the console, but it is well worth the price for such a quality console.

Bought the switch on a whim late at night, and it was ready for pick up the next day. Great customer service from Best Buy employees!

This gaming console is a all in one. Two people play the game. Has access to the Nintendo store. The graphics on this game is superb.
