    I think the joy cons make it great for party games, it’s really convenient to get a 4 player game of Mario Cart going with just two pairs of joy cons.

      Many technologies exist around the inconvenience of having small flimsy drifting controllers in a several player setting. For example: You could pair your phones via Bluetooth or internet for party games in a similar fashion to Jackbox or other party games as a controller/ data entry device.

      We shouldn’t need to rely on third party applications or controllers to have a good experience with your platform, be it physically or digitally, especially when the technology has existed for many years.

      And don’t even get me started on the software side experience.
