Years of other people using and talking about Joycons (never mind their drift, which seems like a problem any controller can get these days, one of my DualShock 4s has a slight drift problem) only cemented that into my mind.īut I was astounded to find that the Joycons were actually less comfortable for me to use than I predicted! I used to laugh any time Vinny would talk about using a Joycon, thinking it was just because of his enormous gorilla hands, but no. I knew from the moment Nintendo first showed off the Switch that I'd prefer using a regular style controller, just like I did with the Wii U, as opposed to its bulky and unwieldy Gamepad. Yes, it's huge compared to the handhelds I used all the time as a kid (aside from one comparison I'll get to soon), but for whatever reason, the whole of the Switch was smaller in person than I expected.Įspecially smaller than expectations were the Joycons. Emphasis on little, because the thing that struck me the most as I opened the box and saw one in person for the first time, is just how small it is. In lieu of pictures of my Switch, enjoy some extra shots of Mario Odyssey.Īnyway, I've been spending a good amount of time with the Switch, and I think it's a neat little device.
I will play that game, and based on what I've read in reviews, and heard anecdotally, I will have many things to say. My copy (which like the Switch, I ordered prior to reviews for the game because I hadn't pre-ordered a game in years and thought, "what could possibly go wrong?") is in the mail, due to arrive in a day or two. The other being, well, I'll be frank, Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise. One being that the shortages over the last few months (due very understandably to the GLOBAL PANDEMIC) created a mindset where I felt like if I didn't swoop in and get one when I had the chance, the chance might not appear again for quite some time. There's a couple reasons for why I just ate my pride and bought one. Just a Switch, a Pro Controller, and a copy of Super Mario Odyssey. After years of waiting for price cuts that didn't happen, years of not buying that Black Friday deal with the Switch at full price but at least it came with Mario Kart 8 bundled in (which I scoffed at because I already owned that game and the DLC on Wii U), I gave in and just bought a Switch. You read that right, folks, the day has finally come.
