nintendo Switch



How you finding it then mate?
Console is lovely. Impressed with it. Feels lovely when you slide the controllers in :lol: nice tidy little thing in general.
UI is nice. Thought the controller would be too small as I have big hands but it's fine. The rumble in the controller is really good. I usually disable it on the Xbox but can see me keeping this on.

There isn't much play in the analog sticks so it's quite hard to aim on Zelda, though I'm wondering if it would be easier with the movement sensor off. That's my major gripe. Enjoying Zelda but it's a bit slow so far but to be fair I'm about 30 mins in.

Bit disappointed with the graphics. There are some lovely particle effects and details but the textures are quite low res in places. Not too fussed about that as I expected it but it's a noticeable drop from what I'm used to. Not used to the controls yet. Keep mixing up A and B for some reason. Presumably it's the other way round on the Xbox controller.

Can't think of anything else so far but I've only had an hour on it. Think it will have an interesting future. It's well worth the money considering its versatility. Potentially a massive library of games that will suit it perfectly as well, especially for hand held stuff.

Hard to justify the spend at the minute but I am very tempted.
I wasn't going to get one either but saw it sat on the shelf and next thing I know I'd bought it. haven't felt the urge to buy a Nintendo console since I was a kid. Proper gadget this though :lol:

Yep. Gave away my nes - well me Mam did. Sold my snes for £70 with a dozen games and a universal game adapter. Still got my n64 (I think) and game gear.
