Just tried it and I think it suits Switch pretty well. Thank goddess it can be used without online service(I'm still boycotting it)! Seems identical to LG Smart TV Youtube app. Using touch screen for searching videos works well. Good for watching videos on tabletop mode(my tablet doesn't have a stand). Too bad the app is limited same way as the other counterparts: there are no comments sections.
I NEED that metal plate(because of drunken accident with a door, need something to cover that hole). Also haven't tried Dark Souls yet, so a MUST buy for me.
Very good first year it was! Lot's of games I haven't played yet, here is my list so far:
Action-Adventure:
1) Zelda BOTW (10)
2) Super Mario Odyssey (10)
Racing:
1) Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (10)
2) Rocket League (9)
Strategy:
1) Worms WMD (8)
2) Mario + Rabbids (8)
2D-Platformer:
1) Sonic Mania (9)
2) Shovel Knight (9)
Sports:
1) Pinball FX3 (9)
2) FIFA 18 (8)
In my books, this is better than Mario + Rabbids. This is first Worms game I played online, and I like it LOT. Online play is very addicting and situational humor in battles is something that makes this so fun and unique. 9/10
Finally! 10.7GB space left, enough room for Worms! Price is right for the best multiplayer game ever made! This is perfect birthday present for myself(25.11)! Happy days!
I'm sure Skyward Sword HD will be a thing sooner or later... What can be improved in BOTW is cooking/eating/sleeping-system: adding energy-bar (like the one in Stardew Valley) forces you actually do those things. Personally think that BOTW is the best Zelda so far and I like the amiibos, but sorry Nintendo: season pass and DLC:s are crap.
@BornInNorway81 So, there's one USB to LAN-adapter plugged in. Shady pictures looked like they were made with Windows Paint. Sure official dock is hugely overpriced, so is this one.
USB to LAN to adapters are very cheap (got one from China recently). Router's port 4 (I suppose it's bridged) works fine (Switch Connection Test: NAT C), but others (1-3) works badly as WiFi connection (Switch: NAT D). Mario Kart Deluxe is only online game I have, but I can tell it works much better with LAN adapter(and NAT C).
You should check out J&TOP Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch. It has xbox-layout, gyro and rumble. Lacks NFC. Too bad Amazon does not ship it to Finland.
After 6 months, some issues:
1. joy-cons
too small and uncomfortable, left joy-con connectivity problems
2. screen
outdoor visibility is horrible if sunny
3. headset
no bluetooth headset support, no built in voice chat
4. internet
Demo videos lags to slideshow and MK8 Deluxe online disconnecting all the time, meanwhile Wii U online works fine. Speedtest 40M/20M ping 30ms, don't know what's wrong
Needed: Super Smash Bros, NHL, Worms, Civilization, New Super Mario Bros, good pinball game, CS Go, Animal Crossing, Donkey Kong Returns, Super Mario Maker, non-embarrassing BOTW DLC, 70% discount for Cars 3, free 12 Switch, Arms 2: Guns.
Bought NES30 Pro for GearVR, plays well with Minecraft VR. Switch support is nice bonus, works nicely on Puyo Puyo Tetris. D-pad is better than Pro Controller one. I like the small size, easy to carry around. Would't buy this just for Switch but it's good and cheap all-rounder

@Cheez Switch U! I like that!
Re: Feature: What Do You Want From A New Nintendo Switch?
Add extra usb-c port on top, so you can charge Switch or play with wired controller on tabletop mode.

Re: Rumour: New Nintendo Switch SKU Planned For Late 2019
Switch XL - Bigger storage, 128 gigs or larger. Bigger antiglare display that is usable outdoors. Bigger and more comfortable joy-cons.

Fortnite runs much better on iPad 2018, only downside is that there's no gamepad support yet.
Re: Nintendo's Mobile Titles Have "Not Reached A Satisfactory Profit Point"
I hope Mario Kart Tour is FULL game with online multiplayer. DS Zeldas, Phantom Hourglass & Spirit Tracks could work on mobile.

I want BOTW 2, Ocarina & Majora Remastered for Switch, Zelda MMO and BS Zelda remake. And maybe some kind of motion control sword slashing game.

Re: Soapbox: Breath Of The Wild Is Amazing, But Is It The 3D Zelda That Enthusiasts Expected?

Switch vs Mobile. PS4 vs Xbox vs Steam. Switch Phone needs to happen at some point, maybe after 3DS?
