People love Nintendo Switch, but they still have problems with it.

Let's address issues with Switch and figure out how to improve its design.

I don't have a Switch yet, so I'm just going by what I saw in reviews.

Issues:
  • The right Joycon feels cramped with the buttons and control stick being too close together.
  • USB-C port on the bottom makes it difficult to charge Switch while it's stood up on its kickstand.
  • The kickstand is just on the right side of the system
Improvements:
  • Space out the control stick and buttons.
  • Have a USB-C port on the top so it could charge while standing up.
  • Redesign the kickstand to be more even to have more tolerance for unstable surfaces.

Best Switch improvement is to get rid of the Dock because it makes the Switch cost $100 more. The Switch is weaker than the Nvidea Shield which cost $200.
