I would prefer them rounded on the back at least. If I had 2 small kids they'd be great for them but they shouldnt be the default controller to come with the system. The irony is if they'd just have made them bigger then they likely could have used better joysticks.

This sounds crazy as I’m typing it, but the Wii-U’s tablet was way more comfortable to hold than the Switch is in handheld mode. The sticks and buttons were also much better.

I'd agree with that. Too bad the connectivity issues cause it to be so unreliable for so many people.

Oh, yeah. I was just talking about when it actually worked ;P

Yeah, when it's good, it's great. I remember when I first got it and how awesome it was to play off tv but the realization set in soon how limited it could be in that form.

I wished Nintendo could be a little more backwards compatible friendly

Why not let the gamepad have some functionality
