Storage. 32GB is crap. Personally I find it annoying when people say SD cards are cheap. What nonsense.

32GB of Storage is fine. It's the quality of the storage that matters.

The Switch uses NAND storage that is likely significantly faster than your typical MicroSD card, the handhelds internal memory has to do more than stream data for a game remember, it has an OS and other background tasks pegging the same drive.

Plus... The console uses Carts and flash, not Optical and mechanical disks, thus there is less of a need to install your games from slower (optical) to faster (mechanical) media when the carts can have read speeds competitive with the internal NAND.
The crux is when you start downloading games digitally...
The Xbox One and Playstation 4 spend a significant amount of install size on high quality 7.1 lossless audio though, that is likely not going to be much of an issue on the Switch.

This is actually one aspect I don't have a problem with in the Switch though.
Would more be better? Shit yes. But they could have done allot worse as well, 32Gb is a fairly decent sweet spot all things considered.
