Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great console. Plenty of power packed into this little machine. Battery lasts long when not plugged into the dock aswell. All around fun. Nintendo keeps the party / Split Screen games alive once again. Better with friends to play with but great alone. The online service is $20 for a year compared to the competitors $60. If you’re on the edge and it’s financially responsible, just do it already!

Search very long for one of these and finally was able to buy one. Such a great addition yo my consoles. Fun games and easy to use

i have hours of fun love the quality of many videogames

This model is essentially what the original should have been. It has much better battery life and it doesn’t get as hot while docked. This should prevent the body from cracking or warping over time. The only issue is that joy con drift has not yet been fixed. This is not Best Buy’s fault. You’ll probably want to get a Pro Controller anyway.

The Nintendo switch is great for my granddaughter. She can use it on the TV or disconnect and take with her in the vehicle. I love the versatility.

Easy to operate and set up. I just wish there were more color choices. Both grandkids have one and only red and blue combo was available

I bought this item for my son for his birthday and he has had a blast with it. His has done numerous things with it and is very pleased with it.

Gave this to my 7yr old son for Christmas. The look of excitement on his face made it worth every penny. We both enjoy playing games on the switch

The Switch is a kind of hybrid between a handheld system like the Game Boy or 3DS, and a home console like the Wii. It has a 6.5 inch screen, and is good for hours of gaming on the go. But when you get home, you can drop the device into a dock, slip off the controllers from the side of the console, and play the very same game on your TV. Suddenly, it’s a home console. I’m pretty pleased with Nintendo’s execution of the concept. It feels like less of a toy than some of their other game systems. It’s heavy and solid, but not so heavy that my arms get tired while I play. The system is capable of graphics better than the Wii U, but not up to par with the Xbox One or PlayStation 4. That’s fine for me, and makes sense for a portable system. The controllers are a little small, but feel comfortable and are very responsive. The biggest problem with the Switch right now is the small game library. There are only a few games out for the system right now, and only one - the new Legend of Zelda game - felt like it was worth buying for full price. 1-2-Switch is a fun collection of minigames, but should have been cheap or free and bundled with the system rather than a full-price title. There are new Super Mario, Mariokart, and Splatoon games coming soon, but currently the lineup is a little thin. This very well could be the end of Nintendo having separate product lines for portable and home gaming because, essentially, the Switch does both. It does neither perfectly, but it does both well enough that I don’t know if it will make sense for Nintendo to continue marketing the 3DS.

Just what the daughter wanted. Works and plays as it should.

The Switch is honestly pretty amazing. The main reason why I love the system is because of its ability to both serve as a home console as well as a portable gaming device.

Perfect Birthday Gift at a Great Price. Wort the buy.

The Nintendo Switch is unlike any console on the market. It's really one of those things you need to try for yourself to understand the feeling. But something about it just makes you happy. The portability of it is awesome. As a college student, nothing is better than playing it in my dorm and then taking it on the go when I go to class. Though it's not to practical to walk around with it in crowds, the quickness of just a button tap puts it to sleep or wakes it up, and within a seconds you're back to playing where you left off no matter where you are. Its the grab and go that makes it so appealing to me. When more games come out (yeah the launch was a little weak in the games department) I'm sure I'll appreciate the "passing of the Joy-Con for some local multiplayer fun" a whole lot. Just the idea that theconsole technically has two controllers out of the box is pretty awesome. And though some hate on Nintendo's idea of launching with few titles, I think it's smart because it fleshes out the releases of big titles to every few months which allows you to enjoy each title for an adequate amount of time instead of throwing them all in your face at once. Plus, it keeps the console exciting instead of having to wait long periods of time before the next big hit. Nintendo really did right with this console this time around. Other than their production (which they claim to be doubling in the coming months), I think Nintendo learned from their past mistakes with the Switch. If you're looking for a fun new game platform for yourself or your family, definitely pick up the Switch.

A very good game for my grandson. He loves it. His sister like it as well.

Bought this for my grandson he just loves it. Slight warning its more fun than virtual learning you have to hide during school hours.

Was a Christmas gift for our 7 year old who loves but my husband and I enjoy it as well. Worth getting the newer version with longer battery life.

This is the most flexible gaming system our family has owned. Regardless if you are at home, road trip, or waiting to get a haircut, this system has your entertainment covered. The system easily moves your entertainment from console to big screen TV. To top things off, meet up with other owners of the Nintendo Switch and easily link with there system for multiplayer fun. Great Job Nintendo!!!

The portability of this console is great when you play on the go. Fun for the whole family. Also its great while everyone is stuck at home.

Bought it thinking in a trip, great amount of battery, it lasted the whole trip, and the disengage mode of the joycons for 2-player game is amazing.

Nintendo Switch is an amazing portable console for all types of trips. Wish nintendo would create deals for this console!! Awesome product!!
