It drains quickly for games like BotW but it's not too bad for something like Captain Toad. I keep it docked 95% of the time, though.

It isn't super great, but it makes sense since the screen is so big, touch screen, the graphics are leagues better than 3ds, there's gyro and hd rumble (though those two last points are controller battery issues).
Just looking it up, the switch has a battery life of 2.5-6 hours while the New 3ds has a batter life of 3-7 hours (old 3ds has a battery life of 3-6). GBA sp has a battery life of 7-10, and the OG gameboy had a battery life of 10-30 hours (which is kinda crazy). Vita has a similar battery life to the 3ds So, the battery life isn't that much worse than the 3ds imo. And it the graphics are so much better than the 3ds, so it all evens out --- Just because you're trash doesn't mean you can't do great things. It's called garbage can, not garbage cannot. ...

We need to go back to wired products. There's too much crammed into devices and because they're too small for appropriate batteries, you're stuck charging too often.
I have a LAN cable to the PS4, the DS4 is never unplugged, even the VR has wires. Probably the only thing without one is the mouse controller and sometimes the Moves. ... Copied to Clipboard!

the DS4 is never unplugged I would love to do that but the cord they provide is only like 5 feet long. I just plug it back in when I'm done. I don't understand why the DS4 has such a bad battery given that the Switch Pro Controller lasts like 50 hours. --- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiCtAUrZbUk -- Defeating the Running Man of Ocarina of Time in a race since 01/17/2009. -- ...

I take it with me when I visit my mom and her house is terrible at having outlets near where you logically would put seats so it's really tedious if the battery gets low. Idk, I'm just playing Octopath Traveler, is that game battery intensive?

Idk, I'm just playing Octopath Traveler, is that game battery intensive? TBH, I am not sure about. I've been meaning to play the demo. And if I liked it, I would get the real one. I'd be able to tell you then. But, unfortunately, that would be a while. You might be able to ask either the Swtich board or the game's game board.

I really never play my switch in portable mode, but I played Okami for about an hour and the battery drained about 25%. I guess 3-4 hours isn't THAT bad, but I definitely would've expected more.

I don't understand why the DS4 has such a bad battery I think it has to do with that light on the back, and the touch pad.

DPsx7 posted...the DS4 is never unplugged I bought a spare cord (6ft I think) and that's more than I'll ever need. Rumble, BT, people think the touchpad uses a lot, while the battery itself it pretty small. This is why I argued PSVR needed to have wires. The amount of power that needs would require a battery that's way uncomfortable. Portable devices have to be bigger or heavier to compensate because if you think about it, the constant recharging is going to wear it out fast. ... Copied to Clipboard!

i will forever be mad that you can't turn off the light on the ds4. like, literally no game actually uses it other than cosmetically. who is looking at their controller while they're playing?

That's an old rumor. The light has nothing to do with it. LED's are very efficient. It's not even a 'bulb', the component is smaller than rice. Also remembered another thing - the speaker.
I kinda like the LED even though its only real use is for camera tracking. Some games use it for status too, like TR would make it flicker red/yellow when holding a torch. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Portable devices have to be bigger or heavier to compensate because if you think about it, the constant recharging is going to wear it out fast. And then the customer has to buy either a replacement battery or a new device, which is perfectly fine from the perspective of the people developing and selling the devices. Toss in that being smaller and lighter generally makes the devices much more usable for as long as the battery lasts, and that those batteries are still going to be good for a few years of normal use (about as long as people expect their portable devices to last), and there really isn't much incentive to put bulkier batteries in there. --- This is my signature.

The launch model 3DS has bad battery life too. Maybe they'll do a hardware revision.
