Been thinking about it recently, and I honestly feel that the Switch is probably the perfect console form factor. Obviously, physical specifications can be improved (faster processor, more battery life), but in terms of the form factor itself, it’s so balanced in the way you can play it on a big screen and handheld

I don’t think Nintendo would ever move away from this model, but thinking ahead (even after a potential Switch 2), how could Nintendo evolve beyond this type of form factor? Or is this perhaps the peak of this type of design and we’re just getting improved specs/minor ergonomic changes from here on out (which I’d be totally fine with)?

    This is why you should support Right to Repair!

    At our shop, I replaced the sticks in quite a few sets of joycons, and they’re also not difficult to replace yourself.

    IIRC we sources replacements from iFixit, but we also sourced a lot of parts from MobileDefenders and MobileSentrix.
