TL;DR:

  • Joy-Cons are more comfortable for adult hands, though still not as big as other systems.
  • Mouse mode joy-cons are awkward. The buttons are small and there is no place to rest your other fingers and palm.
  • You will want to have a table if you are playing mouse-oriented games like Metroid Prime 4 and Civ 7.
  • Graphics seem better than the Steam Deck, worse than a PS4 Pro, but will improve as games are optimized.
  • Mouse aim works well in Metroid.
  • Mario Kart World is good and Knockout Tour is a fun addition to the game.
