Guys, don’t worry, it’s not laziness! The guy said it was “simplicity”... Even though this menu has no personality or customization (or any love put into it) it was a design choice to give it “simplicity”.

actually make the home menu likeable, like add music, maybe curve the squares, allow us to remove the small circles on the bottom, allow us to pin apps onto the home screen, and have a separate apps drawer, get rid of the news stuff on the lock screen, let us have netflix, make custom themes from special games AND LET US SET PASSWORDS TO UNLOCK THE SWITCH!!
TheNinjaTuna 579 Great, did you knew that the American version costs $299=around €280 or something, because the most popular toy store made it €330 which is around $350! And every other Dutch toy store or any retailer that sells the thing follows it! So I don't have to wait, I just need to get money! Stupid toy store...
Honestly looking back on the home menu I appreciate how organized they made it. Most home menus just have applications scattered all over the screen but Nintendo kept it nice and organized. I also don’t really mind the silence anymore because it helps me think about what great game I should play next. It also helps me appreciate the satisfying sounds of clicking on a game or option.

1:58 Dang... Zelda BOTW is *13.6GB*. That's not much for today's games, but when you see a Nintendo game with that file size, you can already confirm it is a *HUGE* game!
It's not just nostalgia talking, this is genuinely the most soulless Nintendo if not the most soulless console UI right before the Xbox ones and series systems.
Modded 3DS is actually a lot better than the switch in case of menu and functionality, considering how old the console is. Nintendo Switch is just a trash kids toy and piece of plastic. The 3DS was something else.
wii home music: exciting, upbeat, ready to get you into some gaming wii u home music: calming, relaxing, helping you unwind after a long day switch home music:
If there is one thing about the switch I hate, it's the home menu. This new home menu is quick and efficient... but sterile. Which sounds weird coming from the WiiU with its bloated UI, but honestly, at-least it had character. Seriously Nintendo, no ambient music?!? The thing that was most endearing to me from the wii, wiiu, DS and 3DS lineup, has been its quirky Nintendo charm. With those systems, you didn't even have to have a game yet and you could have a whole day of enjoyment just playing with all the menu apps and hidden features etc... I cant believe this console doesn't even have one app or feature outside of gaming. It truly feels like this was menu system was rushed, and I sincerely hope we have a big update to bring the charm and character back soon. If this is the style of new Nintendo, then this is a very sad day for me.
Richard Determann Totally agree. The thing I love about Nintendo systems is the "Disney World feeling"; every menu felt like an event, especially on the Wii. Almost everything had a gamey component. When you downloaded something from WiiWare on the Wii, you had Mario hitting the blocks?! That was so awesome!
Well I like the interface more than anything else, mostly to change, we have gone from having a menu like very ... Very overloaded, everything very round, etc, to have a simpler, more modern one, and as you mentioned, effective. Anyway, I think we will add a store of themes as was done in the family of Nintendo 3DS, since in the options of the interface, we can choose between: -White SIMPLE, and -Black SIMPLE, I think they will not be easy Yes, I suppose that other designs set in games or anything else will be added ... I do not know if the message is well understood, I am Spanish and I speak through the translator, since there is very little English xD
lol trust me... even if you did want it.... your only gonna get it from scalpers for the foreseeable future...... 500+ listings on amazon for 450$ and on eBay several people have listings with photos of 50 units sitting on a table with a hand written note saying "Deal with it" selling them for 700$ each. im sitting here like,.... did anyone buy this console to play it?!?!?! its getting out of hand...
I miss the 3ds menu, it was so organized and neat, had themes that played music, each game would have a short jingle or a song when you were selecting it, just so amazing. But having multiple users on switch is something great. What upsets me is that people working alone on custom firmware can make amazing menu's, adding themes and adding things everyone wanted, so the switch CAN handle this much, but nintendo wont. I guess its because oversimplification is a trend in companies.
Yeah.. when i’m bored i just open my 3ds and play around with the homescreen, or activity log, photos, stuff like that! But I don’t do that on the switch.. the eshop is a pain to navigate.. so laggy..
Year: 2016 Everyone: The switch needs to have a fun design and music! That would be AWESOME! Nintendo: Did I hear somebody say, "Simple and souless is better"?
Janet 10 more like “haters WISH Nintendo Switch is a flop”...like all Nintendo consoles. The pathetic thing is, they usually go home disappointed rofl.
I for some odd reason continue to rewatch this over, and over... even though I've had my Nintendo Switch for the past two years. Like if you do the same. I don't think anyone rewatches this but me... LOL.
You still need: MIIVERSE THEMES MENU MUSIC The Switch Online things need to go below the menu kinda like on Xbox and we need the Mii Chanell to be its own icon in replacement of the switch Online icon and we will need them to redesign the Mii channel to look like the Nintendo Wii U or 3DS then they will add another icon for Miiverse. I still think the Switch menu at the moment has no soul! The quality of the Nintendo Switch is AMAZING but the menu gets boring within 6-8 months I think it is about time that we get themes. Chances are Nintendo is not going to redesign the menu but I think now I think more themes for the switch are needed considering they have a whole entire button for "Themes" yet the only themes are literally called "Basic" and "Basic Dark"
''whether you go with white or choose to show your dark side'' More like: ''Whether you never play switch at night/hate your eyesight or are a normal human being.''
Nintendo has always been known for their consoles being full to the brim with personality. Very dissapointed to see the Switch break this fact with it's overly simple UI that has no unique theme or design, no home or eshop music, and no special startup sequence. Especially coming from the Wii U and 3DS. Hopefully Nintendo comes back hitting hard with it's next console with a unique console design full with personality for us to enjoy and be attached with to become nostalgic over in the future. Thank you for reading! 👍
I remember before I get a nintendo switch, I watched this video many times, and when I finaly get my switch, I knew everithing, what I needed to do! And now, I have many games and I enjoy my life with my switch!

Why am I just continually watching switch ads or old stuff.
Wait the switch came out 4 years ago? Wow. I feel old
Everyone else: soulless menus
Me: did they just buy Breath of the Wild twice?
This is a great video for someone who's had there switch for over a year!
The software Archiving is great, a lot more straightforward than the save backups on 3ds

Modded 3DS is actually a lot better than the switch in case of menu and functionality, considering how old the console is. Nintendo Switch is just a trash kids toy and piece of plastic. The 3DS was something else.
wii home music: exciting, upbeat, ready to get you into some gaming
wii u home music: calming, relaxing, helping you unwind after a long day
switch home music:
"Silence" and soulless
If there is one thing about the switch I hate, it's the home menu. This new home menu is quick and efficient... but sterile. Which sounds weird coming from the WiiU with its bloated UI, but honestly, at-least it had character. Seriously Nintendo, no ambient music?!? The thing that was most endearing to me from the wii, wiiu, DS and 3DS lineup, has been its quirky Nintendo charm. With those systems, you didn't even have to have a game yet and you could have a whole day of enjoyment just playing with all the menu apps and hidden features etc... I cant believe this console doesn't even have one app or feature outside of gaming.
It truly feels like this was menu system was rushed, and I sincerely hope we have a big update to bring the charm and character back soon. If this is the style of new Nintendo, then this is a very sad day for me.
Richard Determann Totally agree. The thing I love about Nintendo systems is the "Disney World feeling"; every menu felt like an event, especially on the Wii. Almost everything had a gamey component. When you downloaded something from WiiWare on the Wii, you had Mario hitting the blocks?! That was so awesome!
Richard Determann nintendo wants to be next playstation 4/xbox one
Richard Determann Why aren’t you complaining to Xbox One and PlayStati- nvm PS4 has music on their themes
Well I like the interface more than anything else, mostly to change, we have gone from having a menu like very ... Very overloaded, everything very round, etc, to have a simpler, more modern one, and as you mentioned, effective. Anyway, I think we will add a store of themes as was done in the family of Nintendo 3DS, since in the options of the interface, we can choose between: -White SIMPLE, and -Black SIMPLE, I think they will not be easy Yes, I suppose that other designs set in games or anything else will be added ...
I do not know if the message is well understood, I am Spanish and I speak through the translator, since there is very little English xD
Ethan LaRue SO TRUE :D
It's awesome, but I won't be getting it until a good amount of games are out.
Iced Tea same
Ill get it next year probably
Iced Tea Christmas is when I could get it.
lol trust me... even if you did want it.... your only gonna get it from scalpers for the foreseeable future...... 500+ listings on amazon for 450$ and on eBay several people have listings with photos of 50 units sitting on a table with a hand written note saying "Deal with it" selling them for 700$ each.
im sitting here like,.... did anyone buy this console to play it?!?!?!
its getting out of hand...
I just checked and found over eight of them for under the price I paid for it... and I got it from the store..
I miss the 3ds menu, it was so organized and neat, had themes that played music, each game would have a short jingle or a song when you were selecting it, just so amazing. But having multiple users on switch is something great. What upsets me is that people working alone on custom firmware can make amazing menu's, adding themes and adding things everyone wanted, so the switch CAN handle this much, but nintendo wont. I guess its because oversimplification is a trend in companies.
Yeah.. when i’m bored i just open my 3ds and play around with the homescreen, or activity log, photos, stuff like that! But I don’t do that on the switch.. the eshop is a pain to navigate.. so laggy..
The fact that this was 6 YEARS AGO makes me feel old.
Year: 2016
Everyone: The switch needs to have a fun design and music! That would be AWESOME!
Nintendo: Did I hear somebody say, "Simple and souless is better"?
The haters say Switch is clearly gonna be a flop.
I have been to *10* stores and i haven't found ONE switch.
m8
Janet 10 more like “haters WISH Nintendo Switch is a flop”...like all Nintendo consoles.
The pathetic thing is, they usually go home disappointed rofl.
Ive actually found the Switch in a GameStop at Chicago, there was NOWHERE in Milwaukee, but now there are switch’s in stock?!
Sold out
What does m8 mean
Thanks Nintendo, now I finally know how to use the HOME menu on my Nintendo Switch™
4 YEARS LATER Dunno how you even survived
"Thanks Nintendo™, now I finally know how to™ use the HOME™ Menu™ on my Nintendo™ Switch™"
These 2 themes are a good starting point, I wonder how it will change in the next 7 years?
When are you going to add more themes
Still asking this
Kmaster Bomb never
I hope it will be atleast in 10.0
Kmaster Bomb Themes took very long to come to the 3DS
Never apparently. bAsIc BlAcK
I hope Nintendo will update the home menu to have background themes like the 3DS in the future.
who has the nintendo switch?
me
Maria Jacobo Me
I do.
Maria Jacobo Me I pre ordered It from Walmart
Maria Jacobo I don't :(
I for some odd reason continue to rewatch this over, and over... even though I've had my Nintendo Switch for the past two years. Like if you do the same. I don't think anyone rewatches this but me... LOL.
I rewatch videos over and over and over again that i like.
I watch this every morning I don’t have school
I hope the Nintendo Switch is coming out soon! Still waiting on the release date.
same
It's already released in 2017 ;-;

You still need:
MIIVERSE
THEMES
MENU MUSIC
The Switch Online things need to go below the menu kinda like on Xbox and we need the Mii Chanell to be its own icon in replacement of the switch Online icon and we will need them to redesign the Mii channel to look like the Nintendo Wii U or 3DS then they will add another icon for Miiverse. I still think the Switch menu at the moment has no soul! The quality of the Nintendo Switch is AMAZING but the menu gets boring within 6-8 months I think it is about time that we get themes. Chances are Nintendo is not going to redesign the menu but I think now I think more themes for the switch are needed considering they have a whole entire button for "Themes" yet the only themes are literally called "Basic" and "Basic Dark"
''whether you go with white or choose to show your dark side''
More like: ''Whether you never play switch at night/hate your eyesight or are a normal human being.''
Hes talking about star wars
I remember watching this when I was so excited to get this for Christmas it may of only been 4 years ago but I’m nostalgic
They think this is flexible, but just brings me infinite sadness.
the home menu is plainer than a desert
Best home menu ever. I love all the little sounds everything makes. So simple and easy to understand
Same
Nintendo has always been known for their consoles being full to the brim with personality. Very dissapointed to see the Switch break this fact with it's overly simple UI that has no unique theme or design, no home or eshop music, and no special startup sequence. Especially coming from the Wii U and 3DS. Hopefully Nintendo comes back hitting hard with it's next console with a unique console design full with personality for us to enjoy and be attached with to become nostalgic over in the future. Thank you for reading! 👍

The switch homescreen is my one constant in life, I was shocked when they added the NSO icon but thankfully it hasn't changed since
So I can play the Switch at a restaurant or in a Car?
MIND BLOWN!
Sul2004 Last Name Yes
But in Restaurant It Can get Stolen
This new device is as awesome as contemporaneous. Can't wait to acquire it.
I remember before I get a nintendo switch, I watched this video many times, and when I finaly get my switch, I knew everithing, what I needed to do! And now, I have many games and I enjoy my life with my switch!
TH-cam recommended you did it again
1:07 the color of the button is grey instead of blue
There's more switch colors
@@ssaysosays I said button, not Joy Con, where it says "press A when you're ready", it's blue in the current version.
only og's remember pressing -/+ to get to featured news
I was a OG
