Just because you play Wifi only doesn't mean internet is laggy. Not everyone is stuck with laggy internet on wifi.

I play mostly undocked as well as sometimes I multitask (watch tv and play games at the same time) and for some reason the Switch I like more as a portable. My Wifi I get between 100-200Mbps Up and about 25 Mbps Down. Still plently fast although not close to my 300-350Mbps up and 30 down when on ethernet.

Well and here you made the mistake of taking that post seriously.

...but actually seriously now. God I envy you first world people! Here I have to live with an inconsistent 10mbps down and 1mbps up, it's actually pretty crappy :/

Focus on the incosistent part. That's the worst thing. =/ I use a 60mbps one, yet sometimes it's around 1mb-5mb when I run speedtests. =/ 



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

I use Ethernet on my dock, but 90% of my Switch time is in portable mode in my bedroom, right next to my router, so I have no connection/lag issues.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
