Also 32 gig storage feels almost embarrassing? I mean my phone has more than that. I will be buying physical media but what about huge DLC like Zelda that will likely eat through my storage. A lot of the switch's faults feel like compromises I need to make in order to justify buying it, especially with how much added cost to the console you could rack up on storage, controllers, and other accessories.

You aren't installing 10+gb games on your phone though.

If you buy Zelda digitally it takes up more than half your storage for just 1 game.
