    Nintendo switch is a great upgrade from its predecessor. Much more modern and very easy to use. Amazing game library and super responsive system. Great for on the go gaming or for a fun night at home with friends and or family.

    Purchased for our kids 11/25/2020

    We purchased this Nintendo Switch, we got the free Mario Cart 8 Deluxe download with it, and a 3 month membership to Nintendo Switch online. We also purchased 3 wired Nintendo Switch controllers ($12.49 each ), some games, and a screen protector ( Nyko - Armor case $8.99 ) for the switch. We connected our old Targus multi port USB connector ( previously used on our laptop ) to one of the switch USB ports/slots. The Nintendo Switch has 2 ports/slots so we probably could actually connect 2 of the Targus multi port USB connectors if we needed even more wired controllers. We currently have 3 wired controllers running on this Targus multi port USB connector but this Targus multi port USB connector has the ability to connect 4 controllers using one Nintendo Switch USB port/slot. The wireless controller that came with the Nintendo Switch also works while using the 3 wired controllers that are connected by the Targus multi port USB connector so that gives us 4 controllers ( which is more than enough for all of our kids ). We debated buying the additional wireless controllers but because this is being used by young kids we decided wireless controllers wouldn’t be durable enough for them. We took a chance that we would be able to use numerous wired controllers connected to our Targus multi port USB connector because we couldn’t find any written instructions or information on it but some people on YouTube have videos showing how they used different types of USB connectors to successfully use multiple wired controllers. For us it was simple to just use our old Targus multi port USB connector that we got for our laptop. Our kids are all able to play Animal Crossing together in the same game using one Nintendo Switch, one wireless controller ( that came with the Nintendo Switch ), and the 3 wired controllers we purchased. They can also play Mario Cart 8 Deluxe using the same set up described. We also purchased the Super Smash Bros Ultimate download and they call all play that together too using the same set up described. Overall we saved a ton of money buying the $ 12.49 wired controllers ( that have Nintendo Mario Characters on them ) and the kids love them. We did have to purchase a Nintendo Switch memory card for all of the games we purchased/ downloaded online.

    This pre-packaged bundle deal by Nintendo was a great deal! It came bundled up with VALUE! You get the Nintendo switch console, Mario kart, and 3 month subscription to Nintendo online service for only 299. That is the same price for the switch by itself.

    Boom and scored, what a great price on a fantastic bundle. I could have bought this Switch bundle at few other places, but Best Buy has proven they are simply the BEST place to BUY. Picking it up with their contactless curbside service has proven to be super easy. A huge buy like this you had to move fast...

    I can say Nintendo always comes up with the best consoles and has a way to revolutionize the gaming industry, I can see why they’ve lasted this long but this console has reach everyone expectations it’s a gameboy but a console fused, which not only you can play on a tv but take home it’s great with having family and friends to play especially Mario games, online like fire emblem, super smash, or solo like Zelda, Kirby , in the end it’s worth getting.

    Loving my new Switch. My wife got it for me as birthday gift and got the Switch, Mario Kart full download and 3 month membership for a great price. It was ready for pick up one day ahead of ETA. Checked in online and staff was ready to arrive to help and found to me quickly. Used it for 2 weeks without any issues. Is nice to play on TV with 1080p graphics or portable qith 720p, good luck enough for me as I use it to play with family and friends or solo on the go.
