I changed my mind about NS

Folks may know I'm a big PS fan, but usually get all the consoles.  I've been quite critical of the NS, and initially had a poor first impression when trying a friend's system.

I picked up a NS four days ago with Zelda BOTW, Bomberman R and a Pro Controller and MK8 arrived today.  So far I like the system a lot.  It's much better than my prior impression.  I think Nintendo is onto a winner and I'm going to increase my sales expectations.

Things I like:

• Zelda BOTW is awesome.
• The "Switching" ability works very well.  Docking / undocking is seamless.  So is switching from attached JoyCons to detached or Pro Controller, or separating the JoyCons into two individual controllers.
• The controllers are all quite comfortable to use.  Though I've mostly been using the Pro controller at home, I also played with the JoyCon grip and found it comfortable.
• The system software is clean and a big improvement over anything Nintendo has done so far.

Things less liked:

• It was OK for me, but the price of the system and extra controllers is kind of high.
• The shop is still pretty empty.
• The HD rumble is really quite lame.

TBD:

• Haven't tried online multiplayer yet.

 

Glad to hear you are enjoying your Switch. Care to share that Switch friend code?
