- The Nintendo Switch is great and all but in some ways it SUCKS. Don’t get me wrong it’s probably my favorite console of all time and its done so much for me, but man somethings about it are just so dumb. So today I compiled a list of 100 things I’d like to see changed.

I will genuinely never understand why Nintendo hasn't added themes yet, it's a constant source of revenue with hardly any effort and everyone wants it. I also wish the Switch had some system music or at least eShop music, and all these other changes would be great as well. Still a fantastic console, but could use a few tweaks here and there
yeah wish they Added these themes
3DS HD that is backwards compatible with DS, 3DS, New 3DS and Switch cartridges and the device can connect to Any TV without the need of wires
My guess is because of themes on the 3DS being a way to boot into homebrew
Your r greedy nintendo fan 😮
He r greedy nintendo fan 😮
8:16 There are two things you got wrong;
1. You can delete more than one at a time by holding the x button (this only works if you aren't viewing a screenshot in fullscreen.)
2. You can change the button mapping, therefore you can stop people from using the screenshot button.
Also you can turn off the switch by holding down the home button
i'm on your side i do that a lot.
to be honnest i hate this video
@@nikoblox1065 why
He also wanted a more convienient way probably
Excep Im prety sure the screenshot and homew buttonshave their functionality hardcoded into the console and therefor uniquely can't be remapped
01:10 4 - what? they do have sound effects
03:45 17 - you can
08:05 33 - you can disable the button on the button mapping settings
08:17 33 - you can delete multiple screenshots at once by just pressing X on the album app
09:06 36 - the joy con strap ons make the bumper buttons bigger
09:42 37 - you can
09:44 37 - you can
10:30 38 - you're just wrong i dont even have to explain why
11:39 47 - you can
15:04 60 - the whole point of haptic is feeling like touching a button when you're actually touching a screen, on a videogame controller you're ALREADY pressing a button so why would haptics be needed???
16:08 64 - the point is that if your switch accidentally turns on while inside your backpack or something it won't automatically start opening your games, so you have to confirm you're intentionally turning it on (you can turn it off on docked mode)
16:39 66 - are we just farming ideas to get a big number on the title now (the number didnt even go up the last one was also 66)
16:43 67 - so it wont turn on accidentally inside the aforementioned backpack
17:12 70 - you are
18:28 77 - that's not a switch problem thats just every platform problem
18:48 78 - same as the last one
19:20 80 - you can
19:29 81 - did i just spend 50 minutes of my life correcting a bait.... maybe.
23:19 96 - we do
23:32 98 - you can literally remap all buttons + gaming problem not a nintendo problem
The rest of the video is p good but why put "100" in the title if you're going to have to put such ridiculous things in there just to meet the quota
Could've been just "50" but just the really good ones
Some of these are HIS opinion. Also, if he's "trying to get a bigger number" but also the number didn't even go up, then how does that add up. As for remapping, controllers aren't symmetrical, so that wouldn't be equal. Xbox and PC work together ( you can have your Gamepass and download games on both Xbox and PC, with it being the same account ), etc.
@@gabrielmontague9719 Opinions don't mean something is feasible. Take modding, people already do that, look what Nintendo thinks of Slippi. Rebinds, controllers are asymmetrical but still have roughly the same buttons, and that could have separate profiles like in Smash. Gamepass, that's true, but doesn't take into account that those things are built to work together. XBox to PS5 wouldn't work nearly as well, if at all. Also, the Fall Guys example is run on a server and is multiplatform with mostly cosmetic differences. Having that data work across isn't the same as keeping your Resident Evil save intact from console to console.
@@JustMatchmaking tbh I have no fucking clue what Slippi is but good points.
@@gabrielmontague9719 Game Cube (I think?) emulator
@@JustMatchmaking ah
The color asymmetry is great imo, but I guess they could have a few options beyond the red&blue combo.
If they aren’t going to add themes, they shouldn’t have called them “themes”. They could’ve labeled it “Modes” or “appearances”
Ikr they should've made it a setting for light mode and dark mode like on a phone
Shouldn’t’ve
@@quincius8638 That's not right
Plus the way they said basic white and basic black makes it theme like those are the basic themes and that there will be more
@@zekie0 ah
Probably someone said it, but the blue light in the home button is only used for games with an alarm feature like ring fit adventure.
People need to notice this, also, I'm pretty sure ring fit adventure might be the only game to use this. Such a wasted opportunity.
the blue light would also appear when connected to a computer with bluetooth
@@jellotoad64 oh i had no clue
Would be awesome if it was used for Friend Messaging, if the Switch had that feature in the first place.
@@RealFlippyPlayz I think kawashima’s brain training has it too, from what i remember
There is a way to disable the capture button. Go to the controllers and sensors on settings and change the button mapping. Somewhere there is a disable option. (Though it is annoying having to change the button mapping constantly)
8:09 Nintendo updated the UI for the screenshots so you can delete multiple items
The friend code is probably just a code for being able to change your name for anything you want to. You also have this with online gaming, it sets you apart with identical names
The flap always closes for me and it's there to prevent dust from loging in so people don't start blowing in there like they did with the NES back in the day lol
same with the 3ds, idk if blowing into it actually helps but the logic checked out. i’ve never felt the need to do that on the switch though
Mine closes
@@That_YO_guy_1200 same
I am pretty sure you can disable the screenshot button by going in to "Settings" > "Controllers and Sensors" > "Change Button Mapping" > Choose the joy-con you want to disable the screenshot button > Choose the screenshot button on the menu > Set it to "Disable"
yes but that’s per controller. not per console. so you have to do it for every controller.
@@impreza316 Well, you can endable it on the ones you are using so you can still take screenshots
16:47 yeah I hate taking seconds to press a button
9:15
hey man, for those who are wondering, a red switch exists, the special mario edition switch. it's literally just a red switch all it adds is a cool little mario themed case for your games with mario's overalls, hat and mustache and gloves in a cool pattern
23:40, As a left handed person (ambidextrous, but 99% left), there isn't really a problem with how the controller is set up for most buttons, as you only need to press them. The sticks are different due to the precision you might need, but I've never had a problem and you can just switch (no pun intended) them in the button mapping
Same, after a few years of gaming, trying to switch to left handed controllers or using the left handed mouse setting feels very strange.
Switch don’t got button mapping
@@epicshorts2560 Settings > Controllers and Sensors > Change Button Mapping
“Ambidextrous, but 99% left” so you’re left handed and refuse to accept it?
@@grapesoda7075 It's a bit exagerated but I mainly use left, its more like 70/30
The "doo dads" on the back of the Switch are something you'll find on pretty much every console as they're primarily there to tell you that it's the official product and not a knockoff without you breaking open the console, as for the barcode, it's likely a packing label used when packing them into their packaging and to tell the consoles apart
Barcode is the serial number for the console
And on the Switch OLED they hid all that stuff behind the stand. So I mean they did hide them.
I hope some of the complaints he made were a joke, because some of them are beyond ridiculous
And of course some of the other doodads are required by regulatory bodies. Removing the FCC one would be just about the biggest mistake Nintendo ever made if they were to do it.
@@Narusasu98 frfr
I agree with number 50 and 51 having folders on the main screen would be amazing and having achievements would be amazing because when I get a game I want to get a set of challenges with it.
15:17 as soon as you said “listen to this I got an ad with war cries 😂
I would really love it if they brought back cool stuff from the DS like PictoChat, Flip Note, and Download Play. And even Street Pass from the 3DS too
Download play was goated
@@sunthorn4782 yah but that lost nintendo so much money and every time someone uses download play Nintendo is dollars away from bankruptcy. I am being so sarcastic rn its not even funny
I would really love it if they brought back cool stuff from the DS like PictoChat, Flip Note, and Download Play. And even Street Pass from the 3DS too
Street pass 😭😭
FR I LOVE 3ds
most of the menu issues stem from the fact that nintendo wants to optimise their menu, so optimised that the size is only 200KB, explaining why it feels much smoother and faster and you don't face nearly as much lag vs something like the 3DS
oh that makes sense but they should do more with other stuff
that’s fair.
Yeah but the switch is so much more powerful than the 3DS, it could EASILY handle a more modern UI
@@tybracadabra6321 it is more modern then the 3DS home menu.
@@Roxlecmc I said a more modern UI, not the 3DS UI. They can easily re-implement features that the 3DS UI had while making it fit the modern minimalist aesthetic. Things like being able to organize games in a grid and more intuitive game logs that we’ve had since the Wii that for some reason were done away with. I can understand trimming out the fat and such, but what they did killed the functionality of the previous console UI
21:24 it's called buying a used switch
The home button light turns on if you set a notification for fitness games like ringfit adventure, so you don’t forget to work out, but that’s the only purpose I know of
7:12
I’m a lefty, and I have never had a problem with the right side of my control being used more. I’ve never seen a game controller any other way, so a left handed controller would actually be really awkward for even me to use.
For #14, putting the charging port on top would make port mode a bit more awkward as you have the Switch upside down which if you forget its upside down, there’s not a lot of indication and it would be an inconvenience.
Aya Neo did something like this (forget which one, I think it was the Aya Neo Next?). They had one on the bottom to plug into things like a modded switch dock, and one on top to plug in the charger when you're on the go. Why Nintendo doesn't do this, with either two USB-C ports or the USB-C port on top and some other connector (probably pogo pins or something), baffles the hell out of me.
then theres the steam deck, which has a little cable coming out of the back, so you can just put your deck on the dock and plug it in yourself
@@pickletron240 why tho?
7:51 it can be used for the sport games as well so quite important 😅
i fully agree on download play and themes. I wish you can use the pictures that u took and make it your theme
You can disable the screenshot button if you change the mappings of the controller in use. Just make it so the screenshot button doesn't do anything. And you can have multiple presets so you can turn on that preset when the child is using that controller, and when you're using that controller you can switch to the preset that has every button
This is found under settings > controllers and sensors > change button mapping
The blue light thing actually is used for the alarm system in Ring Fit Adventure (and any other game that uses it) but I think Ring Fit is the only one that uses it. Definite missed opportunity
Edit: Ring fit also users the IR camera to measure pulse
While watching when you talked about haptic buttons I just got an add for Arby’s
23:00 You would LOVE the Nintendo Switch Afterglow Controller
The problem about the Switch eShop is that on Wii U and 3DS the eShop was a real application, a native program so it runs well, while on the switch the eShop is literally a website and the Switch internal browser sucks which makes the eShop on the Switch laggy same for the NSO button, without music and bad and they didn't put a usuable internet browser because on older consoles it was used to mod the console in a super easy way so Nintendo wanted to make the modding on Switch almost impossible and to this they didn't put an internet browser
people should not be modding is the 1st place
@@nikoblox1065 Sure they should, why not? It's their hardware, they bought it. In many places it is actually their right to do so. That is, Nintendo can try to make it technically difficult, but they have no legal power to stop users from doing pretty much whatever with their systems short of reverse engineering, and even that is sometimes allowed as well, for instance when it is in order to make things compatible. Depending on where you live of course. The Switch hardware is not being rented or merely licensed out, the buyers do in fact own their switches (even if they don't always own the software on it).
There is an internet browser but it's a secret
@@Real_Sacabambaspis Yeah but it's not official
Well the Wii shop is a website too.
The friend code ensures that no two users have the exact same code where if you searched by name, you could end up having hundreds of users with the exact same name/some variation of that name making it near impossible to find the correct one
He means usernames. One name is limited to one person
@@AlwaysYoshi what about people who have the same name
@@peny. "this usernername is already taken."
@@ChasingDragons420 well then you need to tell your friends your username anyway just like with the friend codes so what would be the point.
@@algotkristoffersson15 Because friendcodes aren’t as easy to input and remember. You can always remember ‘Groovy Gal 928’ but are you gonna remember SW-2847-3719-1047? Not really.
2:19 this image represent what I do almost every 2/3 weeks to """solve""" the problem lol
15:42 just hold home 🫡
19:59 actually that serves a very important purpose, the numbers on top of those line things are there in case your switch breaks, you have to put in the code on your switch and just send it to them.
Yeah I think he didn't research what it's for
Once i had to do something and I was asked for that thing, but for some reason I peeled it off previously
8:06 Settings, Controllers and Sensors, Chnage button mapping, Joy-Con (L), Change, Capture button logo, Disable, Done.
Also you can delete 100 photos at once by clicking X for delete before you click a photo. Hope this helps!
8:06 you can disable the screenshot button in the controllers button mapping settings
fun fact
you can delete multiple screenshots at once by opening the delete thing, and holding A and down, and it selects a lot at once
15:13 Switch Stop: Just Listen To This…
*Listen*
TH-cam: *A D*

My favorite nintendo console/handheld is the 3DS because it has so much life and personality, I love the little 3DS intro when you click on a 3DS, the little Light that pops up in the middle right of the 3DS that tells you if there is news or a system update (It's like the 3DS is saying "Hey, there is new news" or "hey there is a new system update"), the menu theme, the custom menu background and it's respecting theme, the nintendo eshop theme, the 3D option on the side of the 3DS, streetpass, and the Little 3D Menu animations for each respective game on the 3DS (it even has little 3D menu animations for DS and Virtual console games), it gives the 3DS so much personality, and the Nintendo Switch Lacks so much personality, almost no personality and life to the switch, the Nintendo switch would be my favorite console if it had as much life and personality as the 3DS, but since it doesn't, my favorite console is the 3DS
You have a point the 3ds was a real good console it even had virtual console
I got a switch telling my self I would be able to play pass games library in my hands. As if now NSO makes no sense to me , I just can come to terms with the terms.
are you young? there are consoles preceding the 3DS with a lot more personality. i think even the Wii beats it in a lot of ways. had charming pre-installed apps and iconic music and interface
@@boobiesexmachine true that's true I have played on the Wii too, it does have extremely good personality, arguably more than the 3DS I will be honest
@@Serious5GamingS5G yea sorry if that sounded rude btw. the 3ds is definition nostalgic for me as well
7:28 The blue light actually flashes when you set a training pass in ring fit
The light on the home button shows when you set alarms in ring fit adventure and the IR camera is used when you use heart rate I still wish it was used more though.
I agree they need more themes and stuff make it more interesting and exciting!
15:40 for people who don’t know if you hold on the home button you can power off the switch, change the light and sound, shift to airplane mode, and also change to low power mode
If you’re in dock tho you can’t shift to airplane mode
Yea but that's just sleep mode, not shut down
That’s for only sleep mode
@@OOFUS4103 you still don’t need to get up off the couch to turn it off
@@SikezSypherZ you do. are you ok? YOU DO NEED TO GET UP TO TURN THE CONOSLE *OFF* SHUT IT DOWN, ITS NOT THAT HARD
Low power mode?
I totally agree with your ideas you should do more switch ideas if you have any more
17:45
If I remember correctly, before the old switch was going to come out, I think I heard that they were thinking of doing cellular activity, but then they canceled it for some reason. I cannot think of the reason as it has been a while.
I agree with everything you said. That is why I jailbreaked my switch, it just opens sooo many new opportunities.
I like the red/blue asymmetry because I have a BOTW themed shell for my switch and you can see the red in the button gaps near ganon and the blue in the gaps near Zelda. It’s so cute!
I do wish there was more but I find the little screen space showing if it's charging very useful for someone like me who can get sidetracked and forget things like that very easily
The stuff underneath the switch logo on the back has been there on pretty much every Nintendo handheld they are used for support if you were to call them
7:27 It actually has been used
In Ring Fit Adventure, if you set up a workout alarm, it’ll flash this light while being obnoxiously loud due to vibrations
1:29 the switch does have a startup animation, its just that the one im talking about is only played when you turn on your switch for the first time.
9:43
You can now. You just have to get one normal set of joy cons, then get the inverted set (if that's what you been call them), then just put the normal blue right and the inverted blue left and vice versa.
6:35 Being honest, I couldn't agree more. My cousin's game while mid game, if you press on the game card cover, the game card will pop out. This is incredibly frustrating cause it makes games such as Nintendo Labo 04: Vr Kit unplayable.
6:52 its because a flap will improve the aerodynamics of the switch
To address your complaint about not being able to turn off the switch from the controller: use the home button and then navigate to the virtual power button. It isn't that much slower than having a dedicated button.
I think you can also hold down the home button
@@sunthorn4782 in my experience that only puts the switch into sleep mode.
@@crescentceleste holding the home button down gives you the quick access menu, but yes it only offers airplane mode and sleep mode. The only way to get the option to fully shut down the switch is to hold down the power button on the switch itself.
8:04 there is! just go on the settings, go onto the controllers and sensors tab, go onto button mapping, go on the left joycon, press change, select the screenshot button and disable it!
You should give editor Mac a raise
8:10 you can stop it by going into settings, then controllers. After that, go to button mapping then disable it. 10:50 there is a glitch for the internet browser that you can search up on youtube. You will find how to do it there.
for the internet browser, i think this only proves their point more. the fact that there is indeed an internet browser in the switch, developed and completely functional, but it isn’t available to actually use without a loophole. just silly.
If you set your dns to something, can't remember what, you can get a fanmade web browser.
@@satinfoilplays7830 you like rec Room so do i
it's not a glitch, it's a third party DNS not developed by Nintendo
*I just want that little light icon next to the game that lets you know it has an update like the 3DS did*
It does tell you when a game has an update though.
If you have auto update on then there's no point
Hold the home button when using a controller to open a quick menu to change brightness, volume, and what you mentioned, turning the switch off
Also, in my opinion the red and blue joy cons really bring out the best in each other
If you think about it, would a traditional d-pad on the left joycon be practical, even in games where a single joycon can/must be used?
The D-pad prevents you from pressing certain buttons at the same time like left and right which some games might need
9:43 there is a red version for the super Mario odyssey switch
Also lite has blu
e
@@GoombaLadie191 that does not count
The Mario switch.
i think it was for mario day.
it has a different colour to the odyssey switch, the red is more darker.
You could change what the screenshot button does in the setting and make it be another "a" button or something.
Same for left handed controllers.
15:54 you can hold the home button and it will show the screen where you can select to turn off the console
Number 86 gave me flashbacks because i remember i used the Wii U as my tv remote instead of the actual remote due to convenience. I kinda miss it but i don't use cable anymore, fun times...
Si
Yes
The funny part though is that he both asked for that functionality AND for them to remove the IR blaster, lol.
16:09 you can have a pass code if you turn on parental controls you can also turn on pass words.
7:35 I don't know if anyone has said it yet butThe IR Camera is actually used in Ring Fit Adventure. After finishing a run, the game wants you to hold your thumb over it, so it can measure your heartrate.
You don't have to delete the screenshots one by one, you can delete them in batches
JC drift is what made me use pro cons from now on, they cost less than the joy-cons and they also don’t have that many problems, the only bad thing is that you have to charge it, it only takes like 10 mins though.
Hey! The video title should be 99 changes I’d made to the switch, Because you *CAN* disable the screenshot button, you just need to go to button mapping and disable it! 8:20
If you go into settings and tap controllers and sensors then you tap button mapping you can change the controller and disable the screenshot
Fun fact: joy con drift is actually fixed by Nintendo if you give it to them! They just don’t want you to know that
They'll most likely give you new joycons
It isn’t a solution and you still have to send them back if they drift again
It could be Nice that You get new themes every times You get a new game
7:51 dont forget the sensor is very helpful and fun in mario odyssey
Even adding screen record that doesn’t record past 30s, but instead record the current screen. It would be good for gameplay videos
flipnote would be a great callback to the ds. i loved that thing
I honestly prefer the joy-con's style d-pad. Not the joy-con's d-pad, but the style of it. Making it separate buttons instead of a full pad just feels better imo.
Agreed
Also I wish there was a custom sylus, it could even be themed on each style you use! Like the OLED model stylus, or you can buy unique ones, like a striped one or some gamed thing one (yet I dont know how, stylised are small :/
I agree with #65. They should increase the limit ot at least provide us a better way to export and import Mii's. Yeah, the Switch doesn't have a camera but like in Miitomo, you can load a image and then mark the QR code in the picture to load the Mii from, no camera required! Also, I think the Mii Maker should be on the HOME menu instead of Nintendo Switch Online. They can hide this on the connection settings.
10:53 there actually is an internet browser if I'm not mistaking
where?
there is but its hidden
@@Triboy64 hidden where?
@@deadweightnero You have to mess with the IP address its not supposed be in there but it is look it up on YT.
@@Triboy64yes
Actually peer to peer servers can be a great thing, there are a lot of coop/multiplayer games where servers are don't exist anymore, but people still can play it through peer to peer multiplayer, in the switch's case, even after nintendo abandoned the console, you can still play certain titles with your friends
***the 3DS with local play and the goated download play application have entered the chat***
Play Super Mario Maker 2 online pls
good list, though that Asymmetrical Joycons thing was just looking for an issue that doesn't exist
Fun fact: the black strip on the bottom of the right joycon can be used to remotely turn on the switch by pointing it at the switch and pressing the home button twice
Another feature they should add to the store is small indie games. Basically games made by either a small team or just one person.
So basically you want Wii ware back?
The store has tons of indie games. Just browse and you’ll see hundreds of cheep games made by like one person.
Good news: there actually is a way to disable the screenshot button in the settings. Under controllers and sensors you can change the button mapping for a controller for a bit to disable the screenshot button
But you can't do that with third party controllers
you actually can disable the screenshot button but you have to do it for each controller, its under controller configuration in settings
there is actually a way to disable it in the settings go to controllers and sensors then press button mapping choose the screenshot button and then disable it by pressing the disable button
9:10 😐 I literally didn't even know what u said I'm sorry but seriously man
The blue light actually is used. If you were to set an alarm on ring fit adventure then that light would flash and the controllers will vibrate. This is the only way I know of without mods.
You can disable the screenshot button by going to the button mapping and disabling this
There is actually a way to disable the screenshot button or any button in the controller settings
for the screenshot button thing, i have another thing to add. I always record a ton of videos of funny or annoying or weird things that happen while playing splatoon. but going in and cutting those short to be only the last few seconds has gotten so tedious and not fun that ive just given up for the most part and now i have hundreds of random 30 sec recordings laying around that i will NEVER touch.. I wish you could just change the default recording time to something shorter or longer or have a "pro" mode where it records more the longer you hold and it shows it in the top left corner or something. Thatd be really helpful.
oh yeah and i wanted to add to this itd be good if you could choose to have all of the videos length saved like on i phones where you can go back and make the video longer again even though its shorter. This should be optional of course if youre low on space
8:22 you can lol
it sounds like your noise gate threshold is set to where it makes your voice cut out when you’re talking quiet lol
2 things you can disable the photo button and you can mass delete photos 8:33
13:01 misspelt achievements :nerd:
Yes
adding on to themes, I think it would be super cool if we could customize our screen completely so a color palette, etc
I’d pick orange so fast lol
14:13 Maybe the Switch’s messaging feature could be PictoChat and would work online (but also local wireless?)
3:16 yeah, even the Atari 5200 was 60fps, nintendo.
Also, with the game card flap, it was so annoying that I just ripped it off.
17:21 how about a free software to use *WiFi* download-play whenever you wanna play along with people who owns games that support download-play?
