Maybe hot take: as a handheld, the regular switch is an awful handheld (beehaw.org)

Have you ever held a switch? Its long, flat and the controllers suck. Awful dpad and bad sticks.

Its almost comical, for a small stick the 3ds stick is better than any joycon stick.

And also, internal storage being only 32 GB, and cart games being downloaded in full to the system.

The switch is a mess. At least the games emulate well.

That's not even going into the online ransom shit.

And the dock sucks too. Would it have killed Nintendo to add like 2 more USB ports and an Ethernet port.

And not related but powera can eat shit

One of my biggest complaints with the switch is definitely how my hands are too big for me to be truly comfortable with holding them when they're disconnected from the console. Either one in each hand or one for both hands. That, and I think the batteries in my joycons are a little screwed, so I just said fuck it and got a controller because the last few times I used my switch was connected to a TV.

All I wanted from the Switch was a console-only version. I know why it didn't happen, but I picked mine up on launch day, I've played on it every week since, and I've used the screen like, a handful of times on one trip the first year I had it.

I haven't disconnected it from the TV since then. I really didn't need the handheld form factor.
