Customer Ratings & Reviews

My 14 year old son set up so I guess it’s easy. Unless you’re old like me. Gift for my 4 year old sons birthday. And best decision I’ve ever made. In a house with five kids, I finally get some peace and quiet and all the kids are hanging out together!

Bought as christmas gift since older brother has switch from last Christmas. Play Smash Brothers tournaments.

This has been a great console for the family. Lots of kid friendly games. As well as access to the classics.

It is very entertaining, portable and excellent for everyone

Bought for myself for Christmas, works great. Screen resolution is really good, Mario is very clear and no lag or frame rate drops.

Great work Nintendo picked up Mario kart and Odyssey haven't put it down in weeks waiting for the next Pokemon game to come on over

This is amazing to play with the family or just to let time fly by. It was definitely worth its purchase.

Great system for anyone, perfect for road trips or at home

Compact design, works well. It is tricky to find how to get it started for those with zero experience with Nintendo. A quick start guidance doc will help.

Its good but it looks like it never goes on sale. But this thing is well overpriced for what it gives.

I am nowhere close to being a gamer nor a person that tends to buy games, but i had to have this game console. Currently no regrets

best purchase ever. great, portable, games are amazing!!!!

Gret nintendo product. Love it my son liked mine so much he needed to have one. Great family fun

I love how I can hook it up to my TV and use its joy con controllers to play games like Mario Tennis and others that require motion control. Yet it's small and light enough I can unhook from the TV and bring to bed and has a great battery life. Overall, I am very impressed.

We couldn't find it - so glad we finally did on Bestbuy.com. It was a great deal compared to other sites!

Bought this for my sister, she's been wanting it for awhile now so got it while it was in stock.

I bought this for my son for his birthday next month, have not used it yet. Just set it up and charged it and put it back in the box and wraped it up, so , so far from what i seen setting it up and charging it, it seemed ok, but it wont be used until the middle of july

Even adult need this, i both this for my kids, but i got to like it a lot too. So happy for this purses.

I've always been a huge fan of handhelds and I've been yearning for that portable console since I was playing Sonic on the Game Gear. It's still too early to see the full potential of the Switch, but it definitely has me hooked. As long as the third party support comes along, this may be the system to kill off the 3DS and Vita. With the current lineup, you see a true console experience to-go with the likes of Legend of Zelda and Mario Kart, as well as the traditional handheld experience with indie titles like Snipperclips, Binding of Issac, and Shovel Knight. Then dock it to play some great party games like Jackbox Party Pack 3 and 1-2-Switch up on the big screen with friends. This is the console I dreamt of growing up. That being said, there are some obviously drawbacks to give this a four star instead of five, most of which are fixable, one, though, is not without a hardware upgrade mid-lifecycle (a la PS4 Pro/MS Scorpio, even if the latter ends up being a true next gen). First, the system is essentially an upgraded Nintendo-edition Shield. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as the Shield is innovative but lacks true support. It's not a powerful machine, so it won't ever be able to play true 4K AAA titles down the road like it's competition eventually will. But Nintendo games are not known for killer graphics. They're known for creating a genuinely fun experience. This may or may not end up being a problem when AAA game makers abandon it like they did with the Wii, making the Switch the home of first-party and indie games. Hopefully the install base will be large enough to entice game devs to figure out creative ways to scale down the graphics without sacrificing the experience to be able to deliver the same experience, but at some point, this will be too difficult to accomplish within reason. Second, the interface is very streamlined and simple, which is great. But it also makes some of the missing features a little more obvious. As it stands, there is currently no way to stream games to Twitch/YouTube/etc. native on the system. For some, this will be a deal breaker. There's currently very little customization options (do you like white or black backgrounds?). There's no analog to Streetpass at the moment, which is something I didn't realize I'd miss until I didn't have it. And being a hybrid, this is something I expected from the "portable" side. There's no real easy way to communicate with friends (please patch in a party system, Nintendo!). Third, since this is within the launch window, the library is very limited. But that's to be expected. The biggest concern I have is the lack of major titles announced so far. Zelda is a great game, and I'm still tackling its massive world two months later. Mario Kart is fantastic, since I didn't play it on the Wii U, but it is still a remaster. There's tons of indie games, but Vita has that as well, and we see how well that system is supported (though tbf, even Sony abandoned it in terms of AAA game development). There are some titles promised by AAA devs, but without the flashy announcements, I wonder what the third party support is hinging on. With the first two months' sales numbers, I think we'll see a lot more enticed to port their games, but, as one dev hilariously put it, even they can't get a hold of a system to test games on. So we're probably still a few years from major support, which is a long time to wait and remain hopeful with other big things on the horizon (MS Scorpio for instance) that may steal focus away before the system sees the fruits of their labor. Overall, I absolutely recommend this system to anyone. Even friends that have tried it out are now hunting for a system of their own. It's not going to replace your PC as the indie king or graphical powerhouse, it won't even beat the PS4/Xbox One S in terms of power, but it will definitely slide right into the niche of the little machine that will provide hours of entertainment wherever you are.

If you’re looking for fun, this is definitely the product! I keep mine in a cubby under the tv and it gets dusty really fast. However, the material of this product makes it really easy to wipe clean. I love that you can play portable or stationary. Great solo or group activity.
