The problem with the left joycon is when is off the console, used wireless. if you only used in portable mode you will be fine. when used wireless is bad, Im playing Zelda and the joystick (which control your movement) is non responsive or is lagging so bad that Link keep moving even when you are not commanding. I heard on the net that is a design issue with the antenna, hopefully the recall the remote.
I hope people don't accept this! I can see the negative effects on this, on people accepting the lower value at a premium cost, and competition (PS4/XBO) lowering their value as consequences of this acceptance,
I hope they take the same action on:
1. Accessories
2. Include the 1-2-Switch with the console at launch
1. This might be a let down to some, in my case no big deal. Netflix is available in so many devices that waiting for a app for the NS is ok.
2. Big deal.... So far they are offering low value comparing to PS4/XBO (NES/SNES games vs PS3/XB360 or newer games). If they want to ask $40+ they better start giving N64, GC, Wii even WiiU games...
3. No idea....
4. Dont think so... time will tell....
5. Hopefully Big N have a lot of good stuff on this year E3.

Again, you don't dictated what people need or not need! You probably miss the part of playing with kids. I'm not referring to play with other older kids that can handle the Pro Controller with no problem, I'm talking more about small kids interested in playing funny game like ARMS, which is an example of playing with a Joy-Con set per player.
The complain of a lot of people is in the price tag of the accessories, for those who need them in whatever case they need, in som...
No need for you doesn't mean no need for others. You probably are a solo player and will be set with what the Switch included! I don't expect to as solo player to understand because you only need to concern of what you need but not all the people who are looking for the Switch are solo players, there are a lot of people that are looking for the Switch as their family console, and in these cases you will need extra accessories.
Agree with your PS vita comparison! But what happened to the Vita? ... Failed! and got the same consumer complains!
Most of the people's complains are for the price of accessories and lack of details on their paid online features.
For the accessories are optional for most, its not everybody needs... like in your case that most probably play by yourself and in your main/bedroom TV you probably will be set with what the Switch included. But theres a lot of people how get...
At EddieNX, your opinion is valid, as well as everybody else... In your case u don't need to buy any extra accessories, so you are set! I agree with you that games like Mario Kart can be played split screen with the joy-con controller without the need of additional accessories, and I'm looking forward for that, I was just referring to games similar to ARMS that each person playing will need both Joy-Cons. In my case (or the case of a family with one or more small kids) I'll need t...
Not to mention that you may also need the Grip charger to be able to charge the Joy-Con simultaneous (the included grip on the Switch don't have charging capabilities). This will cost consumers a total of $110.
I agree that the Joy-Con set should be at a lower price. Maybe one for $40 and the set for $60-$65. A bundle of Joy-con set plus the Grip/Charger at $75-$80!
EddiNX, you probably are a solo player and I understand the need of just the included Joy-con set. But I have to disagree as a parent with multiple kids. For example, a game like ARMS required each player to use both Joy-Con. If you want to play local multiplayer with two family members you will need a second full set, adding $80 to the cost (plus the game $60). And probably you may need a grip to charge the Joy-Con adding $30 more. So again, this doesn't apply to everybody but Nintendo ...
Should Virtual Console include Wii game as well now that the Joy-Con's has similar functionalities as the wiimotes? I think will be a good plus to have some Wii games sometimes as a free game.
Nintendo console had always been a family oriented console, and very popular on local multiplayer comparing to PS4/XO. To give you an example, a game like ARMS (boxing game) will required a second set of Joy-Con, increasing the investment an additional $80 ($110 if you want to add the grip to charge them). Again, as you mentioned, if not for everybody but those with family members (kids), who look to the Switch to be that family gaming platform, will be expensive to accomplish. Looking forwa...
Cool technology but overpriced! Comparing a mini controller (individual Joy-Con Left or Right) to a full controller is ridiculous, and more to priced almost equally. ($50 vs $60). I dont think you will play Zelda, Splatoon , Xenoblade, etc in a mini controller for the entirely of the game... Now if you want to have a full traditional controller you will have to do an investment of $110 ($80 + $30 (grip)).
Had anyone hear anything about how accounts will be handled? Meaning it will be similar to XO/PS4 that digital games are linked to your account, and you have family sharing benefits. Do I will need to purchase a game twice if I want to install it on two systems? (Mine and my son systems). So much lack of details on how Nintendo Switch system configuration is going to work.... Hard to make a decision....
Nintendo have always be a family console, so additional controller will be required to play local multiplayer. A game like ARMS will require a second set of Joy-Con to be able to play. This will take you to an additional $140 investment to play ARMS in local multiplayer ($60 game and $80 for the Joy-Con set). Nintendo is trying hard to convince people that an individual Joy-Con is a full controller but in my opinion is not comparable to a full controller as a Xbox One/PS4 or the included in t...
Game looks very promising and fun! My biggest concern is the price of the extra set of Joy-Con! This game is a perfect game to play with the family, requiring a full extra set of Joy-Con to play local multiplayer, raising the cost of the experience to $140 (Game $60 + $80 Joy-Con pair).
Agree with the $300 price tag! (I would rather preferred that price tag with a game like 1-2-Switch as Wii included Wii Sports and Wii U included Nintendo Land)
But as you mentioned the accessories are so overpriced! $90 for a docking station is ridiculous!
If I want to buy the game ARMS and play with a family member its going to cost me $140 (Game $60 + Joy-Con pair $80). Plus probably will need an extra grip ($30) to charge the new halfs controllers and have a extra full ...
Switch-off for launch day! Multiple reasons:
1. Lack of details about user account, family sharing and online paid wall benefits. (Hopefully more than just NES/SNES monthly rent).
2. Lack of console bundle at $300 price tag. Hopefully they will have a Bundle with Zelda for $300 for the Holidays.
3. Accessories prices are ridiculous! $90 for a docking station, really? $50 for half of a controller or mini controller? $80 for a pair of controller that to be used as a t...
Im trying to enjoy the Zelda game but this left joy-con issue is out of control. I can ass the screen issue with the dock but this joycon is not accetable. Nintendo should recall the remote or give customer a credit toward a pro controller
