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

Yes, I didn't and still don't understand why they didn't make the joycon buttons and "d-pad" more comfortable. It's Nintendo's least comfortable controller and it's the biggest reason I hate using the Switch portable mode.

Everyone's saying it's old here - the Game Boy was more comfortable to hold and had better buttons. It's not about age.

The 3ds has a good dpad too. Has Nintendo forgotten how dpads work
