Just remember it actually clicks into place when extended all the way. It's sturdy enough to be in my lap while I play, so it's worked fine for me.

Works just fine for me. I'd set it at the kitchen table to use while I've got food cooking so I can keep playing while I monitor the food.

There's hope for a Xenosaga port.

I don't know. I haven't used it once.
My Switch just goes from the dock to the carry case, then playing on the bus ride to work and back with the joycons fixed to the sides, then again to the dock to play some more Zelda at home. Rinse and repeat.

Thank you for your input, also I'm sure Jo Jo's Stand isn't the only good and useful ones. Shining diamond is also a good and useful one. :)

You aren't home are you? That picture looks like is from outside at maybe a outdoor park or some dining table at a food place. Must be a good day to be outside with the game. (I'm kidding, i know is not you or your picture.) :P

I don't get why they keep putting charging ports and headphone ports on the bottom. Am i the only one who likes resting my handhelds against my stomach? It's always annoyed me with my 3DS. couldn't play with headphones comfortably in bed.

Yes annoying, but not as bad with a right angle headphone connector, if you haven't you might want to try with a different pair .

I tried the stand out when I was on the toilet. I stand the switch on a washing machine and played this way after I was done. The second time was, before I was going to sleep, I stand the switch on my table next to my bed and played so this way

Maybe you wanna keep your expensive $300 brand new game system as far away from WATER as possible. :P

Recently took a trip to Amsterdam. A friend and I played Fast RMX for most of the flight. The kickstand worked flawlessly through some pretty rough turbulence.
This bit is a little off topic, but I thought I should add that outside of Zelda, the battery life is pretty damned good.
