Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great use as leverage for our younger kiddos to keep their rooms clean independently. Thanks Nintendo!

Bought this to keep the kids entertained but it turned out to be fun for the whole family. Haven’t had any issues yet.

Purchased this for Christmas for my kiddos. They love it! They can take it in the car, and play at home! It’s perfect.

Great little portable console. Almost went with the Lite, but the TV and 2 player compatibility made this a great choice.

Got a second unit for my husband since my son loved it so much. The colors are nice and bright and the unit works great.

Great console, and it is a blast to use, whether on your TV at home, or on the go with the detachable controllers!

Finally was able to get a hold of one of these during the pandemic. Great battery life, good screen quality.

We love it! It is fun for the whole family. Easy to set up and there are fun old school games you can purchase to play.

I bought this item for my husband as a birthday gift. He fell in love with it since we got our daughter one fiest

A well-thought-out, well-planned, perfectly executed game system from one of the great names in the industry. Initial sales road the back of Zelda, but the quality of the game system itself is what keeps people coming back for more. I was lucky enough to grab one of these on the release weekend (at Best Buy) when it first came out and then I bought two more for family members for Christmas and we are all in love! There are millions of reviews on the game system, controllers, dock vs handheld, etc., so I won't go into detail about pros and cons there. Instead, I will concentrate on whether or not you're making a good investment. The system itself is solid, doesn't feel heavy in your hands, but you can tell it's made from quality material. I'm not saying you can drop it on the kitchen floor and expect it not to scratch and ding (or perhaps break), but it can take a little punishment. Also, Best Buy sells screen protectors for the not-so-careful gamer. The quickly growing catalog of games offered range from cheaper casual entries (ala Google Play or the Apple Store) to very good quality indie titles (try the $20 "Fe" if you want a pleasant surprise), to ports of older games from other systems, to flagship offerings (like Zelda and Mario Oddysey). They release a new batch of games in the online shop (accessible from the Switch) every Thursday. It's always a mix of ports, indies, something old, something new. There are always games for every age range and budget. Depending on the game, some will be download only, while other big-name titles can be download or purchased in "cartridge" version. My one complaint, the cartridges are small!! Buy an organizer travel case or watch your kids like a hawk or they will end up missing before you know it. To help avoid the dog picking them up and chewing on them (or your child), the carts are coated with a bitter-tasting coating. I haven't tried licking one of my games yet, but I understand it's bitter enough to deter swallowing and/or destruction. I'll take their word for it. Also on the topic of games, the articles that I've read indicate big game companies are surprised at how the switch has caught on and they are now dedicating teams to developing Switch games. There are big title release names coming up for 2018 and beyond, so don't expect the party to end anytime soon. As with all game systems, there are some duds in the lineup, but there are plenty of websites that provide reviews to help you make an informed buying decision. If you want to monitor purchases of games, you have two options. First, you can password protect the eShop, which would force them to come to you for new game purchases. Second, you can fill up your eShop account from a debit or checking account. Game purchases are made from the eShop balance available. Nintendo provided access to the same Mii functionality that's been available since the Wii. Allowing you to build an avatar, send and accept friend requests, play games online, play games in party mode (get four kids together with their Switches and watch them play Super Mario Kart, it's fun to watch). Long story short, the Switch surprised everyone (except Nintendo) and the momentum is still building. Do not hesitate to buy this for the gamer in your life. It seems like it's going to be around for quite a few years and will end up as one of those systems that changed the industry. The solid system provides PLENTY of options to keepyour gamer happy. If I could turn this review up to 11, I would. Oh, worth noting, I'm going to be 50 in August and I love (LOVE) my Switch. It will touch any and all age ranges the same way (my mom, who is in her 70's loves it, too).

Perfect for at home or on the go. Graphics are amazing, and controls are not hard. Price is a little steep for Nintendo, but system fantastic.

My autistic son has asked for this system for Christmas He usually studies things well before he asks for something. I know it will be good..

My husband love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D

Great battery life for such a strong little console. Fun to bring around friends. It is definitely geared towards couch gaming amongst others.

This was sold out everywhere, except at Bestbuy. You can always rely and best Bestbuy and Nintendo to always deliver.

Great purchase for rainy day play for the children.

It’s a all in one situation....I love how you can download and connect the Nintendo website right from the game system

Bought it for my 10 yr old nephew! He loves it. Easy to use. Love that it is portable and can also hook it up to the tv

Made a great gift! The ability to play multiplayer games on it is great and it makes for a great time!

I've been looking for a powerful compact battery operated wet/dry vac for a while, and this one, though expensive, fits the bill. I recommend.
