I mean, with all of the hype you know this console is one of the best things that nintendo has done. The only thing I would recommend though is to get a pro controller with it. I have heard horror stories and have even experienced it myself. The joysticks are secured with a cheap plastic rather than metal (which every other controller uses) and breaks very easily, causing whats known as joycon drift. So trust me when I say, bundle this with a pro controller.

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

After the flop that was the Wii U, and the huge success before that was the Wii...Nintendo has done it again! They took a simple concept (a dockable console that's both portable and looks great on modern 4k TV's) and executed it extremely well. Basically, if you love Nintendo, you'll love this. It's not without it's flaws, but in the grand scheme of things there's nothing really even worth mentioning...I will anyway though. The biggest flaw for me personally is they took away the "Virtual Console" and now require a monthly subscription to access a small selection of retro games. Another potential flaw is that the default controllers (Joy-Cons) are EXTREMELY tiny, even while houses in the controller unit provided with the console. I have big hands and using the joy-cons is almost pointless. Their joysticks are also a little on the short side and in turn make aiming an adjustment to get used to. I'd highly recommend getting the Pro Controller or another 3rd part traditional controller if you're more of a "serious" gamer. At the end of the day these flaws don't detract from the experience that is the Switch though and this is easily one of the best "full family" consoles of all time!

Great for travel or for the big screen at home. A second controller necessary to save hands with multiplayer

Bought this for my son and he really loves it. It holds charge well and love that he can also take it on the go.

The Switch is a really great handheld. Sure, the battery life isn't great, but the ability to take a console anywhere even without external controllers is something amazing. It's magical playing it handheld and dropping it in the dock and see it go straight up on the TV without a hitch. I was hurt by the Wii U but this is a true Nintendo experience that has them committing to 3rd parties as well. I mean Doom and Wolfenstein 2? That's a great thing. I'm looking forward to the future. I no longer pick up my 3DS and I hope it stays that way.

I bought Nintendo switch for my Great grandson. He absolutely loves it. He said it is the best birthday present he has ever received. I ordered several items on line . Everything was ready for me to pick up at Sherman Texas store in 2 hours. Employees went above and beyond. Excellent customer service. Awesome prices. Thank you Best Buy

I bought this for my birthday and its been amazing.

incredible console, great battery life, a stunning library of games, but i would still recommend the OLED if you play in handheld/tabletop mode at all. here's the reason: the OLED model solves 2 big problems with this particular model. the kickstand on the back of this model is rather fragile, and is not angle adjustable, and the LCD model still has touch sensitivity issues on the edges of the display, making the higher touch sensitivity option necessary to have on for games like arcaea that are touch focused. still an incredible option for a game console, but maybe go for the OLED.

such a good size. beautiful quality. and you can get used to the controls really quickly! absolutely recommend

The switch is a handheld-home console hybrid. The 6.2" tablet itself is where all the power is located. As a handheld it is fantastic. The display is a crisp 720p and the controls are very well placed. The battery life is decent, but can easily be extended with the right external usb-c battery pack (check requirements). As a home console it is good. It can display up to 1080p/60fps. Most games won't reach that, Zelda for example only gets 900p/30fps. But it still performs well enough. Other than the few games available the system is currently pretty bare. Very minimal online capabilities and no third party apps available yet. Unless you must play Zelda now, I would wait a bit for Nintendo is inevitably going to add more functionality to the system.

Easy to use, shipped in time for Xmas. Waiting for some Nintendo classics, but ones already out play great, and plenty of third party support

I absolutely love the Switch. Being able to play it on the TV and also take it with me and play it where I want it has made this my most played system. The battery life is better than I expected, really quite good. The graphics are outstanding, definitely comparable to rival consoles. My only complaint is that when playing on the TV, the Joycons have trouble communicating with the system after about 10-12ft away. Kind of a bummer, but I bought the Switch Pro Controller anyway, so I've been using this instead. Otherwise, excellent consoles.

The joy-con are a bit delicate, but I knew that going in. Love the versatility and selection of games available.

I purchased this for my son's birthday, and he loved it. It is a very good console but probably not if you are a gamer with preference for more dynamic type of games. In my son's case since he will be traveling a lot with his school band, this is the perfect console to bring on those long road trips. The battery last for a very good 4 hours and the controllers are very practical to store. Overall, this is a solid product for kids up to middle school age, or old-school gamers like me!

Waiting through most of the pandemic for one of these at list price and finally got one. Well worth the wait.

We have been dying to get one of these things since COVID started and luckily we got it for original price instead of being up-charged another $100. It's has great family friendly games and they are easy to learn. I did not realize how many games are out there for the switch. Do not buy the games for full price, you can usually find one for a good deal unless you absolutely want it. Overall wonderful switch, works great and we love it! Highly Recommend!

I just wanted something similar to the old Nintendo from years ago with the Suoer Mario abd Zelda games. Pros: game can be played anywhere hand held or 2 of the 3 version's offered can Bluetooth to your television. Cin: the only thing u dont like is tou cant hold more than 10 item's to help you on your the journeys.

Best device for my 5 year old. She playes all of the Mario games and it’s convenient she can dock to play on her tv when she wants. It’s very easy for her to use, and convenient for us that it’s passcode protected so she can’t play past a certain time.

Arrived even earlier than the original estimated date! Easy to use and fun for a variety of types of games.
