The refurbished Nintendo Switch, in short
The Switch OLED is all about its screen; the Switch 2 adds power and a bigger screen; the standard stays versatile (TV mode); the Lite, compact and affordable, is handheld-only. All play Switch games, with a few exceptions (the Lite takes only games playable in handheld mode); Switch 2 games run only on the Switch 2.
What "refurbished" means at SubSell
Every Switch is tested before sale: Joy-Cons (drift), screen, charge port, dock and HDMI output, battery. The console is reset and unlinked from the seller's account. You leave with a warranty and can test the controllers and screen in store before paying.
Which Switches we usually have
Depending on trade-ins, we have OLED and standard Switches, sometimes Lite and Switch 2, often with dock and Joy-Cons. Fill the form or call: we'll tell you what's available today.
Warranty up to 2 years and free exchange
Every refurbished Switch comes with a SubSell warranty of up to 2 years (by model), and exchanges are free. You test the Joy-Cons (drift), screen and dock of the exact console before deciding.
Game cards, digital library and microSD storage
A refurbished Switch reads every Switch cartridge the moment you slot it in — no region locking, no account needed to play a game card. For downloads, you build your own digital library on your Nintendo account: purchases follow the account, not the hardware, which is why every console we sell is reset and unlinked from its previous owner before you walk out. You start on a clean console that's ready for your own games and save data.
Want more room for downloads? The Switch takes a standard microSD card — not a locked-down proprietary expansion card — so adding storage stays simple. The Switch 2 moves to faster microSD Express cards, and we'll tell you the right format for whichever model is in stock. Ask at the counter and we'll show you where the card seats and test the slot on the exact unit.
Buying a used Switch in a Rosemont shop vs online
Buying from SubSell means you test the exact console before paying — Joy-Con drift, screen, dock and HDMI output — with a warranty of up to 2 years (by model) behind it and a real person accountable afterward. On Facebook Marketplace or Kijiji you buy in a parking lot, and if a stick starts drifting a week later you have little recourse.
Our counter sits at 757 Rue Beaubien East, a short walk from métro Beaubien in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, so you can drop in, try the Joy-Cons and screen, and leave with a receipt. Because our stock comes from local trade-ins, what's on the shelf changes week to week — fill the form or call ahead and we'll tell you which editions are ready to try today.

Frequently asked questions
Is a refurbished Nintendo Switch worth it?
Yes. Tested for Joy-Con drift, screen and charging, a refurbished Switch plays its games like new for less. We check every point before sale.
Refurbished Switch OLED, standard or Lite: which should I choose?
The OLED for the best screen and TV mode; the standard for versatility on a balanced budget; the Lite for compact handheld play and the lowest price. We advise based on your use.
Does the refurbished Switch come with Joy-Cons and the dock?
Generally, yes: a Switch OLED, standard or 2 is sold with Joy-Cons, dock and charger unless noted. The Lite has built-in controls and does not use a dock. Extra Joy-Cons and Pro Controllers depending on arrivals.
What should I check before buying a used Switch?
Joy-Con drift, screen condition, the charge port and dock output (HDMI). In store, we run these tests with you before purchase.
