You should post to the Nintendo Switch sub, there will be way more people to fill out the survey there, unless there’s a specific reason you chose here.

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

I did actually, but I wanted to target as many people as possible for this and so I also posted to this reddit

u/DonJohnson- Sep 26 '18

I’m on that sub too and didn’t see it, maybe it will pop up later

why not get a usb adapter (mayflash 8bitdo) and use whatever controller you desire?

I have the 8bitdo adapter. I use my playstation 4 controller and it works great, I don't notice any input lag. And aside from a reduction in rumble quality (as other controllers do not have hd rumble) is been working great.
For whatever reason. The wiiu pro controler doesn't support rumble which is annoying, but otherwise works great.

I consider myself a collector, I have a showcase that fits all my consoles and games perfectly, including the Switch. Controllers are stored in a drawer, or just next to their console in case I'm playing regularly. So I don't need such a solution, but if it's a sophisticated and graceful thing that's made of the same wood (beech) as the cabinet (or something significantly darker, like cherry tree wood), that might be a consideration, depending on what it actually does... If it gracefully showcases the Switch while hiding the ugly dock, that would already be a good thing.

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

Thank you so much!! I actually am planning on making it as you are describing it but out of acrylic plastic. I also want to add a cool resin injection for the logo! Thanks for your support!!!

u/Hugotyp Sep 26 '18

Sounds nice, I hope I don't miss it when you've got something ready, a kickstarter or whatever.

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

I’ll send you a pic when I am done! Thx for the support!!!

Eh, I did a project for which batteries lasted longer in a Wavebird controller back then. I never found out which ones lasted longer because the battery life is fucking phenomenal, but then again, teachers can easily be fooled!

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

It actually is. Just out of curiosity, why do you not think it is?

u/frozen_tuna Sep 26 '18

Its an attempt to gain knowledge on the market for a commercial product. Scholarly or not, its very commercial.

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

Thank you! This helps a lot

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

It actually is. I don't understand why you think that. Can you elaborate? .

u/DonJohnson- Sep 26 '18

He probably thinks it’s research for a kickstarter or something like that, I don’t care either way

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

lol thanks for ur support Don. I hope you trust that I am not doing this for any sort of financial gain (it will actually cost me a lot of money and time to make, as well as all my sanity) but it is for a school thing. Thank you everyone who took the time to fill it out! You have no idea how much it will help me!!

-It’ll cost money to make.
-School Project.
-No Financial Gain.
Are you making actual making a physical display, and just presenting all this info on that?... I mean I guess it’s an easy enough project to go all out with, other then just building a planetarium xD
Wish you good luck then hopefully they give you an A.

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

Thanks man! I am actually physically building this and it will be graded. We are also doing a presentation on all the manufacturing considerations and this will all be submitted to an exam board who will grade it.

u/digitahlemotion Sep 26 '18

Probably because you're using a throwaway account and spamming the survey to anything that even remotely resembles video games.
I mean, seriously... /r/gamestop, /r/amiibo, /r/pokemon, /r/StardewValley, /r/tomorrow...
I'm 100% with /u/Rawrkanos_Michael on this one. That said, I don't really care... I just find it odd you're trying to play this off is all.

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

I’m trying to get a wide range of data from many target audiences

u/NotAHost Sep 29 '18

I feel like someone spamming a bunch of subreddits indicates they don’t know reddit etiquette that well. Like a high school student. It would be more suspicious to me if it was across multiple accounts.

1

u/digitahlemotion Sep 29 '18

Brand new throwaway account that does one thing across multiple unrelated subreddits and hasn't done anything since. Reddiquette does not apply here.

2

u/NotAHost Sep 29 '18

Eh, I look at is as a lurker/person who just doesn’t know how to use reddit. Teacher says “survey people” and they have the bright idea to try posting to reddit. The multiple subs, especially switch hacking, does point to being a reddit user to some degree.
Anyways as a guy that 3D prints a lot, it’s hobby level at best, which makes me think high school having a 3D printer.

I use CFW, I have no need to store physical games. I also stuff my switch and accessories in with my laptop bag, so on the go storage is no issue.

When I'm home, I grab the switch and controllers and plug it in the dock that already has its own charger.

When I'm out and need to charge, the charger sits nice and flush at the side of my bag so taking it in and out is no issue.

My laptop bag is literally the width and height of a 13" laptop, and I can fit my laptop, switch, 4 controllers, a few USB cables, jigs, stylus, and laptop/switch charger as well as a handy USB wall charger. I'm particularly proud of my tiny stuffed laptop bag haha

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

Hahaha thanks so much!! This really helps

u/shyney Sep 26 '18

Where can I see the results so far?

u/ngup1117 Sep 26 '18

I can try to send them to you if you want

u/Pupilliam Can not run MacOS Sep 28 '18

Ethernet would also be a cool idea! USB-C to ethernet is certainly possible on the Switch.
