Great quality, fun to play! Ready to use, great for all ages!

Love the switch very fun. We love to play the mario carts and Mario brothers games.

My daughter loves it! The newer style has great battery life! The portability is awesome and the size is perfect for her! Its peppy and fast! Quick start up, quick loading, all in all just a great buy!

I've loved Nintendo games for a long time, but the biggest issue I had was having a device that held a lot of games in one space without the need for a physical external drive. This device not only runs extremely smooth, it holds a lot of storage for what you pay for it. Would definitely recommend to anyone who has the heart for Nintendo games like I do.

Right now, the Switch feels like any new console—the software library is rather small, the hardware is unfamiliar, and the OS does not feel fully fleshed out. But for me, the 2017 line-up has enough games I want that I decided to get a Switch now rather than waiting. THE CONS: Appropriately enough, the biggest con for me was the Joy-Cons. Specifically, I was one of the lucky few to receive defective Joy-Cons that would lose connection with the console if gripped to tightly or moved too far across the room. I contacted Nintendo, though, and they were incredibly helpful and quick in setting up a free repair order. It also sounds like they changed the manufacturing process, so new Switches should not have this issue. My only other hardware complaints are minor by comparison. I wish there were a charging port on top of the Switch, like on the Wii U gamepad, so I could sit it upright while charging. Also, the Joy-Con controls feel closer to a 3DS or PSP than a full console controller, so while the Joy-Con Grip makes them feel more like a full controller, I might still end up buying a separate pro controller (an extra $70!). On the software side, things just feel rushed out. The OS lacks such features as a web browser, video streaming services, or even the ability to customize the order of games on your home screen. None of those is a deal-breaker for me, as that is all software, and Nintendo has a good history of adding more home screen functionality over time. THE PROS: System absolutely delivers on its promise of offering console-like gaming on the go. The Joy-Con connection to the screen feels secure and satisfying, the screen itself looks great, and I have not seen any frame rate issues. On top of being able to play it like a handheld system, the TV dock is also incredibly small (you could probably fit eight inside an Xbox One), so you can easily take the entire thing—console, Joy-Cons, dock, HDMI cable, and AC adapter—to a friend's house, hotel, etc. Past Nintendo consoles were small enough to be kind of portable, but this is the first one that feels portable by design. On the software side, the OS, while rather bare-bones at the moment, is very clean and incredibly fast (a welcome change from the Wii U). Friends Lists are way easier to manage, not only thanks to Nintendo Account integration, but also because can exchange friend requests with another Switch in the room over Bluetooth. The entire Switch OS can be controlled with a controller or the touch screen, the latter of which is very nice when you have to type, for instance, a wi-fi password. Games are games, but it is nice to have full access to the home menu and system settings without closing your active game. TL;DR: If you like the Switch's launch line-up, none of the early issues should prevent you getting one now. If you are looking at cross-platform games, the Switch's portability gives it a key advantage. If you are only interested in games coming out later this year, it might make sense to wait.

Presentation/Availability: Product was well packaged with no broken/opened box. There weren’t any available at the store. Was purchased online and pickup at store. Performance/Gameplay: My kids love it!!!! Is stronger that it looks on its construction materials. I charged quickly and worked perfectly since the first-time powered on. I also purchased additional memory card, case and pro-controller (recommended). Best of all, is not only for gaming, there are some other cool stuff that you can do with it. I had no problem at all picking up the item at the ‘online orders’ counter. Merchandise was available as I purchased it and the employee was very friendly. Customer service: Very good customer service. I was greeted by an employee as soon as I walked through the door.

The surprise of our grandson getting his own Nintendo switch was a hit. Couldn't go wrong with this for a six year old

Got this for my son on Christmas and he’s been using it since. He takes great care of it and he plays on it everyday. Batter is long lasting screen is clear and it’s super easy to use.

Great item, got it as a gift for my gf. She loves it and uses it literally all the time.

Now I brought and buy alot from you Best Buy let me get some of my Money back its the season. Myself and my children enjoy game nights playing with our switch

I finally gave in to my sons repeated requests for a Nintendo Switch. It has kept his attention so far. The portability makes it great to take on trips. The battery life surprised me by how long it lasts. I would recommend this product but I would make sure to purchase a screen protector to reduce scratches. Just a reminder that this purchase will require more purchases such as games but many titles start @ $19.99

Honestly not a ton to say about the switch it’s been around for years and has out lasted all of it’s peers, you really can’t go wrong with a nintendo switch. It does suck that after all these years you rarely see Nintendo cut back on the prices especially for a system that in all honesty is extremely outdated in terms of it’s hardware but Nintendo keeps delivering and making it work time after time so just take into consideration you aren’t getting mindblowing graphics with a Switch that’s not what it’s for but you are getting a lot of great games made by passionate developers.

Amazing system for kids and casual gamers. Easy to hook up and operate. The Switch is my wife's favorite system because she can access all her favorite NES and SNES games. It's Lightweight, easy to transport, and can be used standalone as a handheld so it's also become our go-to system to take with us on family vacations.

I bought this game for my son for his 9th birthday. He loved it. It's great gift. He can travel with it. Buy different video games for it. The price is reasonable for the value you get.

I love Nintendo switched so reliable can’t wait to use my new

The ONLY issue is it needs more games. I am sure they will eventually get all the good games. Destiny and Madden would be huge on the switch. My favorite feature is the ability to give the Wife the TV and keep playing my game.

Great system! Easy setup for immediate play time! Fun for the family!

We absolutely love our switch! I’d been wanting one for so long and the times I was willing to pull the trigger on one, they were sold out or hard to come by. We were bummed we couldn’t get a bundle console, but that’s okay. We’ve already had a lot of fun with it and look forward to getting a bunch more games!
