I've had my Switch for two months this weekend
. It feels like a great time to update to my personal list of positives and negatives about the system.
+ Good hardware: nice design, high quality build, excellent screen, lovely Pro Controller
+ The switch between TV and portable play works so well!
+ Good range of games: Breath of the Wild, Kart Deluxe, Disgaea 5, ARMS....
+ ...with Splatoon 2, Mario Odyssey, Skyrim and Fire Emblem Warriors coming before Christmas
+ The system user interface is slick and super swift
- Poor hardware: The dock is pretty low quality in terms of build. I'd prefer far better storage conditions for that lovely screen
- The cool startup sequence only appears the first time you ever boot the machine. Huh?!? All advertising is built around that "click" sound and yet you only hear it once!
- Looking at my 3DS we have themes, music, Badge Arcade, Streetpass, folders, AR Games, Swapdoodle, internet access, game notes function and the magnificent Miiverse. On Switch we have... virtually nothing. I am amazed that, four months after the system launched, the "non-gaming" functionality is so limited. You literally cannot communicate with your friends in any way!
I really like the system; it offers something different with the TV / portable play options and it has some great games. I just wish Nintendo were moving a lot quicker with bringing in the friends / comms software.
