I hope Nintendo is working on it’s joy-con reliability
This is an interesting read for those of us that have sent Joy-Con off to Nintendo for drift issues. I’ve sent in a couple of pairs and also just bought 2 when it’s been an issue on others. In 5 years of Nintendo Switch ownership I’ve had this issue pretty much every year. I’ve also…

4 years with the Nintendo Switch
I’ve realised looking at my journal that I’ve had the Nintendo Switch for over 4 years now and I wanted to share some thoughts about how I’m feeling about it now. I’ve always loved my portables ever since the Sega Game Gear (I traded in my Sega Master System for one) back on the launch…

Doom launches (badly) on Nintendo Switch
Such a shame for a classic game I love. You need to create a Bethesda account but the servers are down. You might want to wait for a bit until getting this one.

Nintendo Switch durability after 2 years
It’s been a couple of years since I’ve had a Switch and thought I’d share how its holding up. Overall it’s still in great shape, it’s been taken with me on holiday and work trips and when at home lives in the dock under the TV most of the time. The screen has had a…

The best screen protector for Nintendo Switch
I’ve tested a few different screen protectors for the Switch but after recently needing to change it I found my favourite. Why use a screen protector on the Switch? I really don’t like screen protectors on my iOS devices but on the Switch I thought it was necessary. The screen itself is plastic so it’ll…
