when I was downloading Snipperclippers earlier while playing Fast RMX the system had this weird freak out for a moment where it froze up a bit and made this loud buzzing noise until I restarted it. (this was in handheld mode)

Now that has been a contained incident at the moment, but will keep an eye on that. Will be playing Zelda a lot in the next few days and obviously if nothing weird happens I will assume it was a one off 

 

Overall though its honestly a pretty stellar little system. really comfortable controls (with Joycons in handheld mode). I have yet to play on the TV, in a bit will try docked. I have held the Joycon controller and it feels nice (that is, the 2 Joycons attached to the Joycon grip).

System UI is nice. very streamlined.

A complaint I have is they should provide more system user avatars, no Pikachu or Pokemon ones? seriously? get on that Nintendo.

Also I did notice that if you play, say, Fast RMX on handheld mode while the system is plugged into charge, it does get fairly warm. Not too shocking though when you're playing demanding games at 60 FPS or whatever on the handheld

the quality seems there. People were kind of talking smack about the $300 price tag in the past but I think its insanely clean and sleek upon unboxing. It FEELS nice for what you're paying.

Also... the screen is fantastic. Coming from someone who was using the 3DS dual screen for a while and hated it (made my eyes mega uncomfortable), the Switch screen is mega clear. 

Once thing I will mention about the menu interface though is it can be awkward to see that the way you get into SOME options is actually to click up to a very small username icon. Did not notice that at first so it took a few to determine
