ParanoidObsessive 09/08/21 5:42:51 PM #8:	Nothing about the Switch appeals to me in any way to the point where I'm never going to own one, but if I did I would dock it pretty much 100% of the time. I've never really gotten anything out of handheld gaming. Even when I had a GBA SP I barely ever used it. I've never really been a fan of the small screen, and being portable was never really a selling point for me (I'm rarely waiting anywhere long enough to need something to fight boredom, and if I do I usually just bring along a book to read). I'm also a 6'3" tall adult male, so the Joycon controllers are way too small and awkward for me (plus I dislike motion controls, so that's not a plus either). Which means the only way I'd ever be willing to play is using a Pro Controller... which isn't really ideal for portable play. So that's even more motivation to just keep it docked. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:957857962] in What is yo...

helIy 09/09/21 3:17:28 AM #18:	i had a switch lite because i thought that i would play the switch in handheld mode more anyways the ergonomics on it sucked, it got stick drift within three months of fairly light usage, the screen was too fucking small. so i bought a regular switch. it's covered in dust, it's never been played in handheld mode, the joycons are missing, and when i do turn it on with the pro controller, it doesn't display anything to the tv, nor does the tablet part turn on, so who the fuck knows. it probably just needs to be reseated or something, my kid messed with it and that's likely where the joycons ended up, too. i'll probably get it sorted for pokemon diamond. --- my delusion is better than facing the truth about me <cite>helIy posted [p:957871438] in What is yo...
