Nintendo Switch Reveal: 9 Ups & 10 Downs

7. The Controls Seem Awkward

It's already been joked about that Nintendo announced more controllers than they did games, but one of the big questions so far is how comfortable the various configurations of the Joy-Con are going to be.

Though the fact the Joy-Con can convert into two miniature controllers is a cool idea, they look too dainty to be truly comfortable, and after prolonged use could easily prove unwieldy.

Of course, the ultimate proof will be when the Switch is actually released, but we're not sold yet, and the price ($50/£42.99 for a single Joy-Con or $80/£74.99 for a pair) sure doesn't help.
