I dont see what stops you from using the switch as a handheld. That thing is pretty small. I thought it would be way bigger before I actually saw one for myself
It might be smaller than expected but it's WIDE as all hell with the joycons attached, it's "carry in a backpack" portable but not "put in your pocket/bag" portable
The Switch fits into my pockets with the Joy Cons detached. With the Joy Cons fitting into the other pocket.
Well, I'll be looking forward to Pokemon Earth and Sky or whatever they call it next time.

Normal DSes don't really fit well in those pants described either.
[QUOTE=Antimuffin;52800647]The Switch fits into my pockets with the Joy Cons detached. With the Joy Cons fitting into the other pocket.[/QUOTE] I'd be afraid of scratching the screen. I don't have a switch myself but my friend has a nifty little case that fits every pretty snugly.

[QUOTE=Antimuffin;52800647]The Switch fits into my pockets with the Joy Cons detached. With the Joy Cons fitting into the other pocket.[/QUOTE] Doesn't really work in a practical matter at least for me. Sure, if all I was carrying was the switch it'd be fine but there's plenty of other shit I need to carry in my pockets too.

Gonna be nice being able to justify getting a Switch to myself. Always wanted to play Spla2n and to see Pokemon on hardware slightly better than a microwave.
Thats good news, i guess I can put away 1 dollar a day till the next generation of pokemon games and get a switch when its got a solid base of games I wanna play. I said I wasn't going to get one after getting a wii u, but if this means the next is on Switch, I will. SMO isn't enough atm.
