started playing a Switch recently and working my way through mario
just did the water world and it was a very nice outing with pleasant visuals and enough water locomotion options that navigation didn't become a chore. still a sense that everything is too easy and lacking in complexity, though
i played with the adapter that puts the joy-cons into a standard controller form factor and (to my surprise) liked it much more than separate joy-cons. it felt like the right analog was at a considerably better angle for my thumb. in fact, both sticks actually felt more solid in general instead of undersized and imprecise

I think the only real complaint I have about the joycons that can't be easily fixed is the d-buttons. They're too low for my thumbs and they just don't feel right as a d-pad replacement.
@frostotron i haven't used them unpaired yet (like for a simple 4-player game) but i remain skeptical of their so-small size and yeah, the lack of a real d-pad.
@frostotron this sorta thing?
I bought this package, and the covers just add a little more thickness and a bigger bump for the trigger buttons. Its subtle but really helpful.

@alyx
I solved the size problem by getting a pair of grips for them. They make the system easier to hold in portable mode too, but I have to take them off to fit in the clip thing. The analogs are still awkwardly off center while they're split though.
