Jan 16, 2023Like Wii Sports and Nintendo Land, this is a launch title for the new Nintendo system, introducing you to the new controller. It is a mini game collection that is fun for the entire family. Unlike the Wii Sports and Nintendo Land, this game does NOT come with the console. You have to buy it separately. It is not worth the money. The game doesnt have enough content and gets boring quickly.
-
Sep 5, 2022After playing all the mini-games, the replayability factor of some games is very low. Of course, you can fight with your friends for the highest score, but every mini-game run is basically the same. The game can be fun, but it doesn't come close to "Wii Sports"

Jun 1, 2022В теории очень классная игра, а на практике - так себе. Поиграл пару раз, а потом надоедает.

Feb 28, 2022When you try the game for the first time it will be fun, but then you will get bored and hate it

Sep 23, 2021Отличная игра! В компании играть одно удовольствие. Мини игры разнообразные и интересные. Игра также не успевает надоесть (если у вас гости конечно не каждый день;) ). Как по мне, заслуживает все 10 баллов.

Mar 29, 2021This game is really really bad the minigames get boring after a while if you buy it you'll probably play it once and never play it again. DO NOT BUY

Jan 27, 2021This game is garbage. They tried to recreate Wii sports and failed. This game is so bad it makes me projectile vomit. The mini games are boring and unoriginal. I would expect this from a Wii mini game collection made by some old lady in her basement.

Oct 25, 20201-2 Switch was a forgotten Switch launch title, mainly because it was shovel ware. The game is just a fine party game. Not as good as the Wii Party games, but its decent fun for awhile. The game itself is a minigame collection, while it doesn't have any outright bad minigames, it doesn't have too many creative ones and the majority of them are short. Overall, 1-2 Switch is a fine party game.

Sep 13, 2020Should've been a pack-in title.
The good:
- some genuinely interesting uses of the switch's hardware
- fun presentation
The bad:
- mini games lack depth
- no replayability
- fairly pricey for the amount of content -
Aug 22, 2020it's by far the worst 1st party title on the switch. it's a tech demo that cost way too much
-
Aug 18, 2020C'est un jeu moyen, il est fun à jouer avec la famille ou des potes, mais on a vite fait le tour, ca manque vraiment d'autres mini jeu, c'est dommage.
-
Jul 19, 2020El juego definitivo para jugar con amigos sin la necesidad de jugar especialmente a algo, buenas mecanicas con los controles Joy Con. Divertido de jugar
-
May 8, 2020Well in short: after only 1 day you get bored of it, that is it.
So nothing for longtime play.
You will be able to only bring it up once or twice a year with new people.
For that it is absolutely too expensive and made quite cheap. -
Mar 27, 2020alot of game reviews start with "what's not to love"
well i'm starting this one with what's TO love
this is a poorly mad party game that costs nearly as much as a AAA game
and there's nothing to keep you playing like unlockables, there is no single player and walst i do own this game, i don't even like the box art its bland uninspired and just awful at maximun it will give you an hour of "fun". -
Mar 24, 2020Es un juego un poco caro para lo que ofrece, ya que parece más una demostración de lo que puedes hacer con los Joy-Con. Podría incluso haber venido junto a la consola como hizo Wii Sports con Wii. En general está bien, entretenido para pasar un buen rato con tus amigos, pero poco más.

Jan 21, 2020Great game! Very fun and emotional with kids! It's first time when my 3 years old daughter can play video games with me.
-
Jan 19, 2020Um dos jogos para Switch que usa o HD rumble de maneira mais objetiva, os mini games são divertidos para uma jogatina entre amigos, a falta de um modo história igual vemos na série Wario Ware, é o ponto negativo ao lado dos gráficos bem simples tudo isso vendido a preço cheio contribui para uma nota mais regular.

Aug 30, 2019It’s a great game and a really fun time waster.. however it’s price isn’t the best and should be way lower.

Jul 15, 2019It's fun for the first 5 minutes you play it. Iys a cool demonstration of what the switch can do but it's way to overpriced if it was 30-40$ instead of 60$ I would probably give it a higher rating

Apr 23, 2019Honestly at first it was fun, but this game gets repetitive fast. It’s great to play with family but gets turned off quickly.
-
Mar 21, 2019Fun for the first few times you play it. Then you'll never touch it again. Not worth the money!
-
Mar 13, 2019This game was very confusing and mainly involves you blindly waving your arms with no idea of what you are actually doing. It gets boring very fast, and the intros to the games are over exaggerated.
-
Dec 21, 2018Juego muy malo para casuales, con mecánicas que ni a los más infantes divertiría por mucho tiempo.
Lo más grave es su precio de salida: $60, como si fuera algo de super producción cuando claramente es una baratija ¡que ni siquiera vino con la videoconsola! Eso fue lo más grave. -
Dec 17, 2018This game should be bundled with all Nintendo Switches for free. It felt like a rushed demo to try and bolster up the number of release titles. It is a collection of joy-con centric mini party games. It offers zero value for single player gamers, and not the kind of game you would play at a real party.

May 25, 2018Pure cancer,only good for one gaming session with the boys then it will collect dust on ur **** price and horrible mini games with no challenge,feels like a 3+ kids game
-
Apr 24, 2018The price is a little steep but this is your Wii Sports style game for the switch.
Whenever anyone comes round to play it or we have a party this is first game I put in to show what the switch can do.
Its a great tech demo, yes one for nearly £30 but its a good tech demo nonetheless -
Apr 14, 2018Decent party game. Fun as a novelty, but gets old fast for gamers. Good for getting non gamers and family into gaming though.
-
Apr 10, 2018i got this game when i went to go by a Switch. We played it for about an hour before we turned it off. This game might have gotten an 8 or a 9 if it was a pack-in game for the Switch. Regardless the time we did put into this was still fun. I suggest waiting until this goes on sale for 20 or 30 bucks. Unless you are a die hard party game fan, i would wait for a discount.
-
Apr 8, 2018Well the average score is not representative, it does not deserve it! It is good and it is unfair to score it based on its price!
-
Mar 15, 20181-2-Switch is just a tech demo for what the switch can do, most of the mini games are stupid and boring, sure the game might be fun for one hour but that's pretty much it.
And $50 is way to much much for this game.
You should buy a switch but not for this game, buy it for Zelda both, Mario Odyssey and the upcoming Super Smash Bros NOT for 1-2-Switch. -
Mar 11, 2018The games at most last for a minute, and almost all the games are multiplayer only. It is a fun time, if you do get friends to play this with you. if this was a pack in game for the switch than the limited content of the game could have been forgiven. However, at 50 bucks, it's hard to recommend. especially due to the fact that their are better multiplayer games for the switch.
-
Feb 16, 2018This is a great game to have in the family household, with fun and variable things to do. Especially younger children have a lot to gain by playing this game.
-
Jan 28, 2018Das Spiel ist eigentlich gar nicht so verkehrt.
Ich denke als Multiplayer- Game ist es gar nicht so furchtbar wie alle sagen und eignet sich auf Erwachsenen- sowie Kinderpartys. -
Dec 25, 2017I enjoyed this game a lot actually. The mini games were mostly fun (some didn’t’t work well), and it is one of the best local multiplayer Switch games so far. I didn’t know what to score it, because it isn’t like any other game I have reviewed, so I gave it a 8. It is just fun, and I recommend it.
-
Nov 24, 2017At first I wasn't really convinced, of this game, but after playing it it was surprisingly fun. It's definitely worth it if you have friends/a family.
-
Nov 13, 20171-2 Switch has content, just not content worth replaying. Sure it can be fun at a party or two, but don't expect it to hold attention for very long due to it's uninspired, quick and inflated game library.
Recommended To:
- Nobody who is an only child, lives alone, or is single -
Nov 13, 2017Honestly the game just isn't for me. Only a handful of games are fun to play, and most of them don't have a lot of replay ability. And of course, it's WAY too expensive. This game simply should've come with the console. Quite disappointed with this game, I was expecting a lot more from a launch title game that is meant to showcase what the Switch can do.
-
Nov 13, 2017excelente, logra hacer que los jugadores mas antiguos experimenten algo nuevo, y es genial, hasta que ya no es nuevo, por tanto la relacion calidad precio es muy cuestionable, y el juego no logra hacer lo que wii Sports logro por el wii, o incluso Nintendo Land por WiiU

Nov 1, 20171-2-Switch is little more than a glorified tech demo and its outrageous asking price is downright unacceptable. While it has its interesting moments and features good presentation, it's an abject failure as a fun co-operative experience and at retail price falls far short of free Wii launch tie-in title Wii Sports.
-
Oct 29, 2017i spended 40 € for that? sorry for 56€ i got mario. i expected more from that game , i wanted a game to play with my gf and there are not many minigames 28 in total but most are just play one and never see you again. I am ashamed to say to my gf that i spended 40 € for that game.
-
Oct 22, 2017Three partially amusing games and the rest is utter garbage, should have just selected the four most interesting games and made it free with the switch (like they did with wii sports). Please do not spend your money on this game! I promise that you will feel ripped off. It's a tech demo, and not a good one at that.

Oct 6, 2017With mediocre game-play and no presentation the game just isn't worth the money. With a extreme lack of challenge and re-playability makes it so when you play this game for 20 minutes you've seen the entirety of the game.
-
Aug 30, 20171,2, Switch: A poor mans Wii Sports, except its on a new console, aside from safe hack this game has nothing you couldn’t just pretend to do with someone in real life, would have been forgivable if it came with the system. 4.5/10
-
Aug 30, 2017Really nice experience... the first hour. After that is a game that you play once with family and friends and you forget about it for the rest of your life. For 10 euros? 8/10, for 40 euros? Never more.

Jul 29, 2017Perfect game for a party and family, or with friends around, I enjoyed it very much with friends and we laughed and truly enjoyed a video game, with that been said $60 is a little too much for what this game is, it would be a 10 out of 10 if it costed $20.

Jul 17, 2017The good minigames outweigh the bad, and while 1-2-Switch will never be as well remembered as its older sibling Wii Sports, it’s a decent spiritual successor to it that is great to bring to parties.
-
Jul 12, 2017For what what it is it's an enjoyable party game with superb controls. I just wish there was more to it. For example each minigame only has one variant, why can't there be more ways to play like Wii Sports or Nintendo Land? Those gave more bang for your buck with more enjoyable gameplay and content.

May 3, 2017If you and your friends don't find it fun get new friends. You're paying for Nintendo's creativity, who else can come up with such a novel idea for a game? Masterpiece maybe not but definitely worthwhile if you have friends that like to have a laugh
-
May 2, 2017I expected the game to be fun for a few play throughs before I became fed up with it. At no point while playing did it seem fun. Probably the most boring game that I have played in a while. In addition I expected my children to enjoy this game, they were fed up within 20 minutes. Terrible game. not recommended.

Apr 24, 20171-2- Switch is a Party Game. I bought this game knowing what I was getting into. It is actually pretty fun when you get your family and friends together and play. Other than the party atmosphere this game is quite shallow.
If you're interested in a Party Game, I would wait until the price drops and pick this up. -

Mar 23, 20171 .2 switch is expansive and make everyone uncomfortable, there are not a lot mini game and all mini game is poor quality .. The game should be called "1 2 Cringe".
-
Mar 21, 2017This a more of a shout out to define their current customer base: simple minded. Because anyone that buys a switch now is either an idiot or didn't get a Wii U. Maybe Nintendo has moved WAY past dungeon crawlers like me and seeks out a brand new audience because they are tired of their older fans.
-
Mar 20, 2017I enjoy this game. This is definitely a game I would like to take to my friend's house or play with them. It would be better as a pack in game, but I still would recommend getting it just for fun. However, you need to have a partner, so if you don't have friends... good luck.

Mar 10, 2017One of my all-time favorite games of the year.
10/10 would shoot you again.
The game may not be worth full price, but as soon as it drops below the $20 mark be sure to pick this up.. It's a blast to play with normos. -
Mar 9, 2017Greatest Game Ever. This revolutionary party game is beyond great. Name one game where you can milk cows. I dare you?
The amount and quality of the minigames is legendary. You can be a gorilla. -

Mar 8, 2017This has maybe 5 or 6 decent mini-games on it, super over priced, i get that its to show off what the switch can do but this should have been a free game included with the console. Would not recommend buying unless its very cheap.
-
Mar 8, 2017$50? Are you serious? This should've been bundled with the system or a $20 add-on at most. Wii Sports came with the system at launch and was better than this. Nintendo has seen what happens when they put effort into something (Zelda BotW), so stay on target and stop making dumb decisions like this one.

Aug 30, 2017For all Nintendo’s protestations, 1-2-Switch absolutely should have been bundled with the Nintendo Switch. It's an excellent demonstration of the hardware and the sort of game that could be chucked on when you’ve got friends over and want to show them what the console is all about. Instead, you’ll have to fork out £35 for a limited, albeit fun, tech demo.
