I can't see any Switch case fitting in a pocket. Case is always going to be more bulky than no case.
but it also can protect it from drops, and hold games. and i actually dont mind if it doesnt fit in my pocket, but if it does, then the screen is a little too small.

I don't mind it either but OP clearly does.
I never really carried my 3DS in my pocket, I have a shoulder bag I put stuff like that in.

Never? Come on guys packing your stuff in a bag is time consuming when you short on it. Closing it, slapping it in your pocket and pulling it out on a ride or at the doctors or wherever is alot more convenient than packing and unpacking everywhere. I genuinely feel that alot of us here don't actually take our games out of the house to play in public when their is a chance. Switch users especially, we all just keep it plugged into the TV for the most part. That's fine but it just seems that portable means using it on the toilet to some lol.

Yeah, it would probably be something like a Gpd win but with Nintendo's high quality finish.


The biggest problem is heat. The GPDWin2 can keep its formfactor fairly small because it uses a 4.5W TDP chip. The Switch's SOC is double that in realistic use.

I consider it home bound portable same as a laptop or tablet. I don't take either of those out of the house unless I have to either.

I'd much prefer a different better completely convient portable system than a smaller Switch. Honestly I would have rather Nintendo continue with two completely lines.

I only want a new Switch line if it'll support Bluetooth headphones natively. That would make me buy again .

They could but they likely won't. When I'm portable I'd like to be able to use my Bluetooth headphones wirelessly like I can with my phone and actual tablet. Cords get caught on things and short out.

A different line means different games, I also don't think as many AAA companies would jump on a new system like they have with switch. Nintendo's likely thinking about it, they always make new models of older stuff to stretch their dollar. However this time I wouldn't mind. Watch them make it out of labo cardboard lmfao :rofl2:

In that case I just carry it in my hand. But no I don't really take it out in public, I'm rarely in a public place for long enough to have time for any serious gaming, and if I get bored I always have my phone.

Can one fit a portable toilet in one's pocket....wait, don't answer that.

The definition of toliet is a fixed receptacle into which a person may urinate or defecate which includes a bottle so yes you could since we are going strictly by all interpretations of a definition.

Hell a pocket is a receptacle so I guess it's already a portable toilet .

Bluetooth introduces too much latency for decent gaming. Best to stick with wired for any game audio.

joycons are too small while the thing put together is too big, kinda ironic lol. I haven't undocked it since the first day I got it and don't plan on undocking it again.

I don't mind a bigger screen, but same sized Switch for a "XL" version or alternately, a Switch with less bezel for a smaller version.
Basically, I don't want the screen smaller and I don't want the Switch bigger.
