Customer Ratings & Reviews

As of this review being over 4 weeks since it was released, if you actively follow and enjoy Nintendo's products and you want a quick an easy way to play both on the go or at home, the Switch does just that exceedingly well. I have been able to take this with me on my travels and the battery would last me almost all the way to my destination (the trip being around 4-5 hours in total). Of course this varies based on what game you play but I purchased myself a portable battery to go along and this only adds more to the great experience I have had. Not to mention the titles that are currently out for the system, I have yet to put the console down. In terms of other software, that is where the Switch is lacking. There is no internet browser, no applications such as Youtube and Netflix, and in terms of games, no Virtual console. These are, while not to some people, rather important things to have for the general market and Nintendo has already put out a statement that these features will be added later so take that as you will. Overall, a great console recovery from the commercial failure that was the WiiU. Great library so far and soon to come. I personally haven't had any issues with my console like others have, but neither should any of the new shipments coming in soon.

Its cool. And also you can set time limits if your littles want to play on it.

My son absolutely loved it. He has been wanting a switch for a long time. We always buy our electronics at our neighborly Best Buy store always have the top of the line and great offers for our money...

Haven't had a Nintendo product since my Ds/DSi and Wii so this was a great system to get back into Nintendo. I've been having lots of fun playing the games I bought (lots of money spent but thats another convo)

Will be exactly what my little guy won’t expect for Christmas. I’m so excited play these games with him. I love a lot of these games as they are more oriented to smaller kids, as other systems are not. I think this will be a great addition to his play time.

Love Nintendo's broad range of game titles and this system is great at home and on the go! The only cons I have are storage issues. Purchased some microSD cards after the fact and need to figure out formatting the memory.

Got this just for animal crossing and super smash brothers. Ended up with a few more games. Always have loved Nintendo for casual, party, or specific titles (zelda, mario, etc), and the Switch was a home run.

The Nintendo Switch is the best way to fight the self isolation blues. Nintendo always has great 1st party games. This console is great in that it's portable but can also be docked to enjoy on the big screen. I dig it.

Very good game I recommend for young kids so they can entertain playing video games.

This is by far the best handheld system ever released. We're a family of 6 and own 5 of these. From gaming to watching movies to family nights... these are the best things ever! No matter age or sex, you'll enjoy the Switch!

Love the nintendo switch! Excellent for traveling, multiplayer and easy to use and download games

My son is loving his Nintendo Switch. I bought it early and they delivered it to me free of charge.. best Christmas prez for him! He’s an X-Box gamer... but now? Well even x-box took a back seat to this..

Really easy to use and easy to connect to the tv. With a Nintendo account you can download games for free or try new ones before buying them.

My son loves it, I’ve played it too and pretty cool

Everything we hoped for! A birthday present for our daughter, she loves it! I only wish that games were less expensive.

I love this device to the bottom of my heart. So many cute games have been played on this.

The console itself is definitely unique and has made a wave in game consoles that we really haven’t seen in awhile. The ability to SWITCH from handheld to stationary mode is really fun and offers something we have never seen before. The switch offers a great line up of games and a lot of those games have been around since the 90s but Nintendo still finds a way to make the new and fun again and again. The reason that it’s four stars instead of 5 is mainly because of two reasons: 1) The joy on drift that occurs relatively quickly on it. It makes playing game unplayable and annoying. The only solution is to get a new controller or joy on. I don’t dock more points because this is something that happens across all consoles and it really is silly at this point in time to have this be such a big issue for controllers. Just put a better quality product in the sticks and I feel like that would fix the solution. 2) Not a huge deduction in points here is that the resolution isn’t up to modern games. 4K gaming and 120 FPS is the wave forward. However, this doesn’t make the game nor does it make it fun to play, just smoother. It is just a quality of life improvement that I would like to see down the road. But if you want 4K I would get a computer, you get it for the games.

This is the first Nintendo console I have bought since the N64 and let me tell you it is worth it. The functionality of it is the selling point for me. I can take it anywhere to play. I am not a Nintendo fan boy but this console is nothing short of awesome.

Worked perfectly as expected, the pickup was nice and quick and ready faster than expected. Overall a great experience.

Preforms as should. No issues or problems so far so good.
