Okay, after a couple of days with the Switch, I'm starting to get a feel for it.
Pros:
- Split controller. Feels great to be able to hold my hands far apart.
- The hardware itself looks very sleek and classy, one of the best looking systems I've ever owned.
- Nice simple UI that gets the job done.
- Splatoon 2 is excellent. So far even better than the first one thanks to the broader range of weapons available in the campaign.
- While not a graphics powerhouse, it does produce noticeably nicer visuals than my Wii U.
- Returning to cartridges feels great. There's just something really cute and cool about modern games fitting on such a tiny little thing.
Cons:
- The face buttons are a bit too small, at least for my hands.
- The lack of an IR pointer feels like a real missed opportunity.
Overall, liking it a lot so far, though I am still going through that adjusting process where it doesn't quite feel comfortable and natural yet.
