    This is my 5th purchase with backmarket and I have been impressed every turn. The switch came with everything I could have needed including the wrist clips for the joycons. I waited to review until I’d had time to see the hard/software for what it truly was being refurbished. Of course the body and controllers had a few noticeable scratches on them but it was all able to be polished up a bit. All in all another great purchase. Thank you backmarket for saving the tech!

    We ordered a refurbished Switch console for my daughter and it came promptly and is in great condition, so we're very impressed there! The seller originally only included a generic USB to C power cable, without a plug. The cord and our home USB compatible plugs weren't strong enough to power the console, but thankfully we had a laptop charger which worked, so my daughter could play. I contacted Backmarket who contacted the seller and we received a new OEM charger within a couple days, so in the end, all is well, although we would have much preferred to receive a functioning charging cord with the original shipment.

    Very happy with my purchase! I was worried because the listing didn’t mention that the dock came with it and the support team got back to me in 24 hours with a guarantee that it would be included. I love buying refurbished items!

    Everything was great, like new, expet for the joy cons which are known to age poorly. The controlls are a little soft the the right hand one is a little loose when attached to the switch. I can clean them up with some isoporpal alcahol or get factory new joy con replacements elsewhere but still disappointed that I have to do some refurbishing myself when I got excellent quality.

    My shopping on Back Market was good, but not perfect. I bought 2 used Nintendo Switch sets, saving 1/3 off the price of new ones. The information provided was accurate. They appeared to be in good condition, but one was missing the charger, so I had to spend an extra $20. They were both anonymous gifts to charity, so I did not test them.

    Bought a switch off of BM to play Mario kart w friends and family. It arrived looking pretty much new. Works perfect. I’ll continue to use BM forever. I have bought several IPhones and and other Joycons from BM. I refuse to buy brand new, or used that have not been refurbed.

    I've had the Switch OLED for about 2 weeks now and so far it's been great. Arrived 2 days before it was supposed to. Even without the original box, everything was packed nice and tight. Haven't had any issues with game play, connections, or the controllers. It was listed in Fair condition, but I would put it as Good. Aside from some wear marks near the charging port and two very very small chips in the screen (I can feel them but they're not noticeable in game play), this thing is 10/10.

    The description didn’t say anything about what exactly was included. You get a switch, left and right joycons, the controller that you slot the joycons on, the little slides you put on the joycons to use them separately, a dock, a power adapter for the dock, and a USB-A to USB-C cable. My accessories came in pristine condition, with some still in the packaging. The switch and joycons, however, were a little worse for wear. The joysticks in the controllers are loose and rattle around, and the left joycon waggles forwards and backwards when slotted on the switch. I was a little surprised when both controllers worked fine when I started playing games. The switch itself came with a heavily scratched screen, both scratches all over the place and scratches from where the dock rubs against the screen. The screen itself has no defects and there are no dead zones in the digitizer. The buttons on the switch, the USB-C port, the game card reader and the SD card reader all work. There are also scratches all over the switch body, and one corner was chipped off, which didn’t really affect usability. I’m not unhappy with what I received, because I understand that the construction and typical u...

Refurbished Nintendo consoles are the entertainment deal you deserve

Nintendo is one of the longest running makers of gaming consoles, with a track record of proven success.  

Why buy a refurbished Nintendo gaming system?

From the original Nintendo gaming system through the Wii and all the way up to the Nintendo Switch, they’ve been producing a gaming system that has been enjoyed for decades. 

What’s even better is the longevity and desirability of their older models. The Nintendo classic and Nintendo 64 both remain a popular retro system that users still seek out today. What’s more classic than playing the original Mario Kart?  

Nintendo, as a company, has been producing gaming systems since the early 80’s. They’ve followed market trends, they’ve consistently improved their product, and they’ve expanded their products to match current trends. They’ve also led a lot of those industry trends (cue the Wii). A refurbished Nintendo is a great deal.

Are discounted, cheap Nintendos reliable?

The short answer: absolutely. However, you’re probably looking for the longer answer!

Not only are you working with a reliable producer of games, but you also have a product that has been refurbished with Back Market, making these cheaper Nintendos a solid purchase. You might be able to find a Nintendo deal elsewhere, but only with Back Market are buyers further guaranteed reliability:

Verification:

All Back Market products are tried and tested by experts, to ensure that the consoles are functioning at 100% before they leave the factory.

Warranty:

Every device, including 30+ year old Nintendo consoles are given a 12-month warranty.

30-Day Guarantee:

In addition to the warranty, all products are given a 30-day, money back guarantee, just in case you decide this refurbished console isn’t the one you wanted.  

So again, yes, a cheap Nintendo from Back Market is a reliable purchase. 

Which used Nintendo console should I buy? 

Your options for a used Nintendo console can essentially be broken down into three groups: classic, modern, and the Wii. Whichever one you pick, you have a great Nintendo deal.

If you’re looking for a retro-gaming system, the Nintendo Classic or the N64 are going to be your best bet. The retro-graphics are a great throwback, and used games are still available for a lot of the old classics, like Mario Kart, Super Smash Brothers, Duck Hunt, etc.

If you’re looking for newer models for good variety with your games, the Nintendo Switch is an excellent device, especially for its versatility (hence, the name “Switch”). Gamers can use it on the screen with convertible controllers that can also latch onto the Switch itself to shift into handheld mode. A wide variety of gaming options are available, along with excellent graphics and multi or single player options.

Lastly, the Wii consoles (including Wii and Wii U) are a bit more limited in the options, but a great choice for motion-detected gameplay. If you’re looking for a quick bit of light entertainment, not terribly challenging but a good time, the options with the Wii are great.

Whether you’re on the lookout for a cheap Nintendo to pass the time or a refurbished, modern system to play, Back Market’s Nintendo options are reliably refurbished and ready for use.
