So you can say tis your Achilles' heel? Years of handheld gaming has conditioned me. Especially after the 3ds, The Switch feels a good step up for me.

Also, it feels heavy when I'm playing while lying down on my back, and I'm not a "weak" boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is because blood drains out of the veins in your hands because they're above your heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really not that much blood, and the finger movements aren't strenuous in their action. It's the ergonomics that are uncomfortable for me. I can use the iPhone or the iPad for hours. The Switch doesn't have weight distributed very well. 3 hours ago, Emo-Iwata said: By lying down you mean leaning againt the wall in bed or your head in the pillow? We need to know, for science!

Gautam Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Even phone/tablet use is uncomfortable in that position for me. You may not notice with the phone but for one handed use, you might be switching hands unconsciously. For the Switch, try this - Put a hardcover book on chest/tummy, prop up the switch with the flimsy kickstand on the book, detach the joycons - one in each hand and game like a boss/potato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best workaround I've found is supporting part of the Switch on a neck pillow, the 'U' shaped thing, and play with the joycons attached. I keep on inadvertently pressing R1 though. I don't even remember how many weapons I've thrown in Zelda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan.Drake Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Guys, where to get tempered glass for Switch. Had ordered a couple from ebay.com two months back but haven't received the package yet and i don't think i will even. As since last 3-4 months i have not received any of the orders(6 to 7) i had placed their. Also these Rs. 600-800 temper glasses available on amazon.in and ebay india are they worth it? Or should i try ebay.com or aliexpress again? And how are these $2-$5 joy con colored silicon grips. Are they comfortable or just for the show. Thinking of ordering them too.

I have a spare AMFILM tempered glass. If you want i can send it to you. As for the joycon grips, i have no idea but i feel it's not necessary, and the money can be better spent. Like buying a game or two from eshop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
