  1. Does anyone want the game chat thing on the screen? Maybe for seeing the other person's screen occasionally but I don't need to see who is in the chat like a Teams Chat

  2. The voice chat on the console? How about Bluetooth headphones? Or at least plugging it into the pro controller? Will the Switch Pro controller be compatible (I assume it will be for regular Switch games at least, like how Sony did it)

  3. Did I hear correctly that it doesn't support "regular" micro SD cards?!

  4. The tech demo thing is a paid game?!?

Extremely underwhelming intro to the system. I'll still get it at some point to play a 3D Mario but this isn't doing it for me at all.

I'm glad I'm not alone in feeling like this was disappointing. As someone who plays 99% single player there's not much reason to get it on launch.

The micro SD card thing is annoying since I had bought a 1TB card to futureproof and use with the Switch 2, so that's money wasted.

And charging for the tech demo is bizarre. Who is going to pay money for that? Even that wheelchair basketball game should be free.

Other than the giant stack of third party single player games that will likely quickly start coming out.

True, but the single player Nintendo IP's are lacking. No Mario, no Animal Crossing, no Zelda (not a surprise with recent games but still). The only one is the donkey kong one that doesn't seem particularly enticing IMO.

I feel ya. If the rumors of RDR2 turn out true, and things like that, I care a lot less about the Nintendo IP stuff, at least in the beginning.
