30 years ago, Nintendo was engaged in a long-standing console war with Sega. However, for the majority of the 21st century, Nintendo has had to get a little more inventive than it needed to be back then. It can’t just release a similar console to its rivals anymore. No, it needs to live outside the box. Nintendo pulled it off with the Wii, and is currently continuing that trend with the Switch.
Now, we love the Switch. A console we can play at home and on the move - what’s not to love? Well, quite a few things actually. However, we are often so taken with big titles such as Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and the upcoming Pokémon Sword and Shield that we often let those issues slide. No longer, as once you see all of the Switch’s problems listed one after the other, you may well change your mind.
Uncomfortable To Hold
First off, something we’ve already touched upon. The whole point of the Switch is that it’s both a home console and a portable one, hence its name. However, it’s not exactly the most comfortable thing in the world to hold while on the go. There are no grips, and if you are using it during a particularly long car ride, chances are your hands are going to cramp up a fair bit.
