CableZL 12/26/17 8:42:40 PM #4:	I'm still totally surprised, honestly. I was one of the biggest doubters of the Nintendo Switch ever since I saw the Nintendo conference about it. "Why would I want to take the system with me anywhere?" "What's the point of taking the controllers off of the system?" "The battery life is only 3 hours!? I'm NOT buying it." Bought it, took the console with me to multiple places, and have played it for hours on end. Playing with the joy-cons detached is also my favorite way to play. I've played my Switch a ton more than my PS4 or my Xbox One S. To be fair, I primarily bought the Xbox One S to play 4K blu-rays, but... Yeah, I'm surprised. --- http://i.imgur.com/ByKGlJb.gif http://i.imgur.com/nZdaA8D.gif http://i.imgur.com/VBLBILg.jpg <cite>CableZL posted [p:892918300] in Man, the S...
