I recently got back into Pokémon, and had to pull out a DSi I still had lying around to transfer pokémon from gen IV to gen V.
I was immediately reminded of how much better the design of the DSi was compared to my 3DS XL: very lightweight, one slick colour, no cheap plastic parts that make squeezing sounds when you press a button, etc. The 3DS XL on the other hand, is made of separate cheap plastic parts that can easily be ripped off with just a little bit of pressure, and makes my fingers go numb after holding it for too long.
I can't imagine things being much better with newer 3DS models or the Switch. Am I wrong?

Yes, if I hold my 3DS XL for several hours straight, I start feeling a tingling/numb sensation in my fingers.

Do you mean from a comfort level or a practical level. In my opinion I think the Nintendo Switch's concept is down right genius. You have two controllers on both sides that you can then give to a friend and then put away. The problem is that it's extremely uncomfortable to hold.

On a comfort level, mainly. I was just taken aback by how little the DSi weighted, since I hadn't used it in so long.

Main issue with the DS Lite and 3DS is that they're fucking frail - unlike Vita and PSP especially. For just how it feels to hold and play, all of them except the Switch are pretty fine. I haven't held a new 2DS but the buttons look like shit (small and weak).

I actually like the 2 screens. Handhelds have limited space in order to be portable, so it's a nice way to add more screen space. Not all games benefit from it, but some games (most notably RPGs) benefit from being able to access a map or inventory while still being able to view the main action or story.
The buttons aren't great for the *DS systems, but I've had no major issues. I loved the microswitch buttons on the GBA SP, but I guess not everyone liked them.

I have fairly average size American hands (5'8") and my issue is that Nintendo has been taking a dump on D-pad positioning since the 3DS. It is impossible for me to play a hardcore 2D game like Metal Slug 7 or Space Invaders Extreme for long periods of time without my hand cramping up because you can't grip the damn system properly when you want to make strenuous use of the D-pad.

You're right in that the d-pad position is awful, but it's been a problem since the Lite. At least the 3DS d-pad has proper feedback and actually fucking working diagonals, unlike the piece of shit on the Lite.

Maybe it was because it was the price but I always treated it like it was a cancer patient, being fucking careful as hell with it. Always worried that if I held it wrong or bent it a bit, the fucking thing would crack. Never had that with the 3DS. Switch's screen worries me about drops but not bending since it's damn large.

Eh, I've single-credit cleared several scrolling shooters on that dinky pad. It's small and a little stiff but it's not in a hand-crampingly awkward position. You can get a good grip and go to town with the GCN controller.
Now if you wanna talk about the inferior face button positioning or shoulder buttons that liked to crap out their highest-strength input those are much bigger issues for playing tight digital action games.

Light=plastic, heavy=metal. Heavier things are immediately perceived to be sturdier, which translates as much to the technical side as it does physical durability. Obviously there's an upper limit, nobody wants a handheld that weighs 20lbs, but when the total weight is somewhere between 0 and 3lbs lighter doesn't provide any direct advantage.

With breasts it's the opposite. The smaller they are the better.

Incredible, I must say. Never seen such trips/dubs gather in one place.

It's nice and is more comfortable than the S, but the back/start buttons and vertical orientation of the face buttons is inferior to a horizontal orientation.

that's a given

Might as well ask here. Has anyone been having issues ordering flash carts from nds-card of late? Friend of mine's been trying to get a 3DS compatible one from there, but says every time they tell it to complete the order, it acts like they never had an order being compiled to begin with. If it's a matter of difference in time zone between where they live and Hong Kong, I could see that being an issue (if no one's there to approve sales outside physical business hours), and going off of item comments, it seems like there have been recent orders that have gone through, but I figure it doesn't hurt to double check.

Honestly the only really bad thing about the nintendo switch is the thumbsticks and the size
If it wasn't abundantly apparent that trying to service a switch lite would be fucking obnoxious I'd be all over that shit, shit's just slightly bigger than a vita and doesn't have the caveat of retarded storage

Never felt like any of the handhelds, except maybe the original DS design, since my brother smashed it to bits, were that frail. But it also helped that I always have a case that makes them bulkier then they actually are

Actually, never mind. They were trying some entirely different site than nds-card (which I had previously recommended, and have since once again recommended). Site won't let me delete the post, so now I just feel retarded.

The Switch is absolutely horrible to hold. I have no idea how anybody uses that shit.

My hands are pretty average, maybe on the smaller side and I think the Switch is the perfect size, just not the perfect weight. Intense matches where I need to play aggressively and quickly (Tetris 99 comes to mind) do wear on my hands due to the weight of the thing, but it's sized very well for my hands otherwise. The Vita I absolutely hated, thing was fucking tiny. 3DS XL was better but a bit too small, the corners would hurt my palms after playing a long while.
I've always found the hand size thing weird. I like the joycons, which should make me a baby-hand, and I also like the Duke, which should make me a fat-handed burger.

And yet all Nintendo consoles can be emulated successfully (albeit with some fuckery for Wii U, and questionable quality for Switch) while the completely generic 360, Xbone, PS3 and PS4 are unemulatable unless the game in question is called Persona 5.

Fucking android, it's so abhorrently shit, even something as simple as a controller that snaps to the phone is gimped because Google is fucking retarded.

First line. That's the real problem. If it had UEFI and other standards then suddenly you could be running linux, BSD and others on every phone.
Now every phone needs an individual port. Do you even know how many different ones there are?
You're like: I have a Nexus 7 2013
That one alone has like 3 variants all needing individual roms.
And all of them have some components not working right which is why most people stay on what's shipped with the phone.
Not to mention that you lose warranty which you don't on a PC. It's like you're just renting it.
Phones are shit
