Customer Ratings & Reviews

Awesome! My kids love playing this, on the go or at home. Games are a bit pricey but it is a good way to spend family time!

Got it for my daughter for her birthday. She has not stopped playing it! Her and my husband love it. Best purchase I ever made!

The Nintendo Switch is a great game system for both kids and adults. A lot of great games to choose from. Getting another system for myself.

This is an exciting console with so many new ways to play games. Love the ability to remove it from the console and still continue playing. Awesome to say the least.

It was the best Christmas present for my son, i like

The Switch has a lot of potential, but it hasn't been met yet. As of this post (mid-March) there are a lot of features missing. Nintendo promises these will be added soon, such as video streaming, online gaming and the virtual console. The cons are the battery life, left joycon issues, and the dock not being built very well and scratching the screen if you are not careful. Being able to take the system anywhere is a huge selling point, and Zelda is one of the best games I have ever played. The system itself is very light, the joycons (when working) provide a very relaxed and comfortable playing experience, and this thing seems like it was built for local multiplayer games. There are quite a few great games on the horizon, so hopefully Nintendo (and third parties) will keep delivering games worth playing on the Switch so this isn't Wii U 2.0.

Best purchase I’ve ever made love it portable and light

Great new console. Nintendo hit the jackpot with this one. With its growing selection of games, its taking the market by storm!

Fantastic. Being able to play on the TV and play hand held with the same system is great. My daughter loves taking it with her.

Struggled to grab one because its mostly out of stock everywhere but i was fortunate enough to grab one and it is completely worth it!

you can never go wrong with Nintendo. great buy it has a variety of games. you can play 2 players without having to buy a second controller .

The Switch is a great little console. I wanted something portable (for me) that had games my son could play (when docked). We have love playing Mario Odyssey and Mario Kart 8 together. It has also rekindled my love for Skyrim...that I can now play on the go. My only complaints relate to onboard storage (32 GB) and max cartridge size. Both of these factors keep more games from being ported over.

If you have any interest at all in a Switch, just go ahead and get one now (well, when you can, as it seems like they're never in stock.) The Switch blends handheld and traditional console gaming in a way never before seen. While games may be a bit sparse in the early months, Zelda alone is worth the system purchase, and with Nintendo's stable of 1st party games, you'll end up getting your money's worth and more.

My son loves his new switch. He says that it it one of the best gaming systems he's had (and he's had a bunch.) He loves that it is portable or can be played on TV.

This is a great product for my child keeps her entertained on road trips. Has all the necessary plugs and attachment to keep kids and adults entertained for hours.

nice and fun runs games well and distracts you when needed

My son is having a good time with appliance. He is still exploring this.

There’s nothing as of right now that that does exactly what the switch does As good as the switch does. Wish for a spec bump but that about it

Got this new console system to replace older Wii and 3DS systems. The Switch was very easy to setup and the graphics are markedly better than the older systems, as would be expected. The system can operate as a traditional console with wireless remotes, as a Wii type system with movement or as a 3DS like handheld system. A really nice feature for parents is the phone monitoring app which allows parents visibility into games being played, hours spent on the system and even allows parents to set time limits. There were a couple sticking points I had with the unit but they weren't deal breakers. 1. Like with most game systems on the market, Nintendo nickels and dimes you for everything. The system includes two controllers and the base console but doesn't offer anything more than that. We needed to purchase two additional controllers, a charging kit for the controllers and a separate carrying case. Total cost in was almost double the cost of the base system 2. The charging mechanisms for the system seem limited. For example, although the system can operate as a 3DS type handheld, it does not come with a way to charge it as a standalone unit. I'm now looking at investing in yet another accessory, the Nintendo power pack In spite of the above, it appears as though Nintendo put some good thought behind the system itself and is looking to make this a platform they can continue to build from moving forward. More importantly, my kids love it.

I've had far more use out of this console than I ever did with its two predecessors. At first I was weary about the lift off functionality, but I've actually used it quite a bit on trips. I do wish it came bundled with an extra controller, but sadly you'll pay a ton for extras. I'll be buying another one of these in a couple monthes for my daughter.
