Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Switch is great. Not nearly as powerful as XB1 or PS4, but fantastic for: Nintendo games, indie/retro games, portability, get-togethers, etc. I have a dock in 3 different rooms of my house as well as work, so anybody can play their games wherever. It's so convenient to be able to play Smash Bros or Overcooked with friends in my living room, take a little break w/ some Tetris in the office, continue playing an RPG when I'm stuck with some downtime elsewhere, etc. There's more than a few games I probably wouldn't have gotten around to finishing without this convenience. Nintendo has a lot of great games to play. This particular switch went to my grandparents, who already have 500+hr on Animal Crossing. I'd say Nintendo nailed it this time, if they just had a good D-pad JoyCon variant.

Simple to play to a family game I recommend to buy and play with friends.

Very good quality professional installation Excellent

Great gaming console! The biggest sale point of this game console is its "convertible" feature, which means you can take it out and play it like a handheld game device, while it can be docked and output to TV when it is at home. When it is in "handheld" mode, the screen is touchable as well, like a mini tablet. To be fair, it's not the most powerful and nicest screen output like 4K you can find from competitor like PS4/5. So, if you are a hardcore video game fans that quality of screen output is your first priority, this is not for you. The screen output is HDMI 1080p, but it's more targeted for people who are looking for a versatile solution, can be played handheld and docked to output to big TV screen. Of course enjoy lots of motion games with the joycon.

So I’m glad I waited to buy a Switch because they improved the battery life on the improved Switch. I love to watch tv and play it handheld. The longer battery life is great for commuting/traveling, too! Really love it and so glad I bought it.

So I haven’t owned a system since the PS2 So this was a severe upgrade for a Christmas present. I tested 2 games on the switch to make sure it worked before it was put away until December and I have to say it is the best thing I’ve ever played on. The two games I tested out was Legend of Zelda:BOTW and the my hero academia fighting game the second one. The joycons I believe that’s what they are called work flawlessly, the colours and display were amazing and out of everything just an amazing buy didn’t die quickly either which was a plus. I was going to get the lite version but my best friend is partially blind so I got the actual switch that sets up to the TV and the test out was great she was able to play fine and not get close to my tv. So this is perfect:)

A great system to have if you are looking to play games on the go or not wanting to connect to a tv to play. You can play lots of old school NES, SNES games and current gen games as well. You cant go wrong with this system.

Look, seeing this finally in stock after three months was a godsend. I was starting to see prices going for at least $400-500 for one. So, when I found this in stock in best buy, I just threw money at them. It arrived on time and I was very happy for my purchase! I wanted to get this one as it has a better battery life than the older version. On a side note, I would recommend getting (at least) a screen protector & maybe the pro controller if you are going to game heavily. I used the joycons for a couple of days and they feel too thin for my tastes. They're fine, but I feel like I'm going to break the A button. I'm just happy I finally got one, and if you're looking for a regular Switch and have the money, buy it immediately because it would go out of stock within hours.

The Switch is great for all different ages and skill levels. I play Mario Maker 2 online with my 7 and 3 year olds a couple times a week. We all have a blast trying out different levels made by players all over the world.

So much fun to play this device using my large screen television and able to play with another player. Did need to buy more storage and a controller.

It charges fast. The hookup to the TV is really nice. My school age son isn't really one to stay on screen time for long periods of time. But when we play as a family, the game seems worth it. Overcooked is our jam. lol. In my opinion, the Switch isn't really user friendly for younger children. I think it is best suited for kids 8 or 9 and up.

Great game for the kids never had a problem kids love it

The Nintendo Switch I’m glad I made, I use it all home all the time and actually took it with me to use on the plane while traveling as well. It’s super convenient and the selection of game Nintendo provides are awesome, having a blast!

The screen is great being both touch and a nice personal mini monitor for playing with the controller separately. It hooks right up to the television and looks great as well (although, don't expect it to be the same experience as a PS4 or XBOX ONE, but that's not what Nintendo is about - they are all about just having fun with video games). I definitely recommend getting this version over the lite portable standalone: 1. you can replace the controllers on this machine and 2. you can share with others 3. you can play it on the big screen. Saving $100 is not worth eliminating these advantages. The only thing I'm not crazy about with the Switch is the tiny analog controllers that are not nearly as comfortable as the XBOX and PS controllers. You can get alternative controllers to remedy this issue though.

Great family friendly console. Got a few games I used to play when I was young and the kids love them. Glad I get to share it with them

I ordered online. The order process was no problem. The delivery was quick. I received my order in just a couple of days. My son has not opened his system but he has played at a friend’s house. He loved it then and I’m excited for him to open his on Christmas morning!

I don't know what more can be said about the wildly successful and entertaining Nintendo Switch, but let me just start with: this is my second Switch and I purchased it specifically for our kids to have their own. There's so many games available, lots of controllers to choose from, and (best of all) a very good online account / Family Account system for getting all of the gamers in your household linked up and ready to play.

Have had this for two weeks now and it’s been a blast. My girlfriend and I love the Mario games we initially got. Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy were surprisingly good purchases (downloads) during a recent cold snap, as well. No issues with the controllers or system. All working fine. I’d also say I enjoy playing the Switch more than my PS4. Oh - one thing I would recommend is buy yourself some extra storage for this system.

Have always loved Nintendo consoles. Have definitely found myself playing it until 4 in the morning since it can be used handheld. The controllers are small but still easy to hold and I like that you can easily bring it with you anywhere

The Nintendo Switch is magnanimous! Finally a console that you can play at home and on the go. The set up couldn’t be easier and within minutes you are ready to play your favorites. I thought it’d take awhile to get used to the joy cons but no. They are comfortable as can be so novice players need not to worry. Also finally third party support from Nintendo so bravo! Not only can you play the gems of Super Mario Odyssey and Zelda Breath of the Wild..but other companies such as EA. Oh check out Max: Curse of the Brotherhood and Oceanhorn. Only thing I’d add to the switch to make it better would be apps for YouTube and Netflix. Take it on the go for those long car or plane rides. Just make sure to have a adaptor or charging battery with you as the battery life is 2.5-6 hours depending on which game you’re playing. Nintendo changed the gaming industry once again. Keep it going into 2018!
