Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was able to borrow my friend's Switch a while back to play Zelda: BotW and it was an absolute blast. I had so much fun, when I saw it sitting on the shelf at BestBuy one day, I went ahead and grabbed it (they were sold out everywhere in my town, so it was a happy coincidence). I've used it for a few weeks now and am a huge fan! Obviously, Zelda is great, but the console itself is pretty awesome. I like the build quality, it seems pretty sturdy. I've taken it on a few trips with me and I'm definitely careful with it, but I also don't feel like I'm going to break it (or the controllers) taking it out to put it through the x-ray machine. I LOVE that I can throw it in the dock to charge, play for a while, and then when my wife wants the TV to watch her shows, I can just grab it and continue playing. It's super-convenient. More-so on that point, I like how you can pick it up; hit the button and just start playing immediately wherever you left off! I never have to load the game or wait for anything to boot. It also has really great battery life (for me at least) and I've only run it down once or twice on longer airplane rides. I have a new MacBook Pro, so I can simply reuse it's charger on the go (or plug it directly into the MBP) so I didn't need to buy an additional one. That's pretty handy. I honestly can't think of any cons. Being a PS4 gamer mostly (and then switching to desktop recently) the biggest thing I've had to get used to is the controllers and the button placement, but after a while it feels pretty natural. Also, I am still playing Zelda, but once I finish it, I'm honestly not seeing any games that I would immediately buy. I'm hoping by the time I finish, they will have a better selection of games to choose from; but I think I'll be on Zelda for quite a while.

The graphics are amazing. The games are great! I'm so glad I purchased this. Keeps my busy during the quarantine... Especially love Animal Crossing on this!

Bought this for my daughters birthday and it was great gift for them!! It’s a enjoyable system for the entire family from the baby to the grandparents !!!

Great system no issue the only thing i wish was better was the graphics on fortnite because they are horrible looks like im playing N64 again other than that its great the games for the system are much better quality graphics over good buy.

Weather it be on the couch around family. Or on the tv in my room. This gaming set allows me to play it wherever I am. With or without wifi connection.

one of the best purchases i have done at best buy so far

I bought this as an early Christmas present for my grandsons it has been a huge hit! So glad i got it and surprised how quickly it came in the mail :)

I had been playing the switch every since I had got it. This is a pretty easy system to enjoy. Once you get use to the buttons you are good to go.

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

Funny, I gave my grandson this present a year ago. One day I asked him how he like the switch? Sadly, he said my dad gave it away, why I asked? he said, I got points at school. Knowing my daughter and son in-law parenting skills I was not surprise and I didn’t say anything. When the school years ended my grandson passed with A’s as expected. He came over asked if he could hooked it up on my TV. He’s 8 and his sister is 5 they play the games together and separately. They enjoy here at grandma house and take it home when they leave.?It’s a expensive but good purchase

My daughter loves it very convenient and provides hours of fun and entertainment I wish they would bring back old nes game nabunagas ambition Great product

I've taken several years off from nintendo products. But I have to say, I love the portability of the switch. I'm excited by the titles that I already own, and only see more coming down the line.

Husband loves his gift! Easy to use and great quality

My son loves it all the games he put on it it’s amazing for kids

Great nintendo device. Many uses. Fun to play alone or with friends.

Works great! My friends and I have a great time playing on it!

Bought this switch for my little brother before the whole shutdown happened and he loves it. It keeps him occupied especially since COVID came around.

Managed to snag one and got lucky. Very happy with the item but beware of shipping! Item was shipped using LSO shipping and package failed to delivery twice.

Its so fun it reminds me of the psp thats why i got it

Thank you, Best Buy! You've made shelter-in-place more enjoyable by having the Switch console in-stock (although for a very short time)! Just FYI, if you didn't know, there are two versions of the Switch console: the original one released in 2017, and an upgraded version released in August 2019. The original one has a hand on the box, whereas the newer one doesn't have a hand and has a red background. The original has model number HAC-001, whereas the newer one has model number HAC-001(-01). This unit from Best Buy that I purchased in August 2020 is the newer model.
