Performance wise it's perfect in handheld. I am not a big fan though because I use split joycons for motion control (only right hand moves) rather than a pro controller or connected joycons (both hands move together/Switch moves). I prefer playing in desktop mode rather than handheld for that reason.
I can't get enough of Splatoon 2 at the moment. Now I am a bit higher rank the battles are pretty intense affairs and almost always very close. So good.
Pro controller through the TV here. I should really give the split Joy-Cons a go.

Pro controller is what all the pros use, but I think that's just because at tournaments you have to use a wired controller. Apparently there is a little less (but still a lot) of input lag with the Pro controller too in wireless mode (wired mode adds a lot of latency).
Motion controls where you turn the whole pad like a steering wheel just feel too daft to me. I much prefer having my right hand act as a pointer like you do with the Wiimote controls on previous Nintendo consoles.
My wife isn't a gamer but she will play Overcooked, Snipperclips, Bomberman etc. She draws the line at Mario Kart.
Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes (stupid name!) is great because it's not really a video game, it's a "real" game.
My wife is still playing Stardew Valley, we've each put 100hrs into that game. Pretty good value for money
I'd rather buy the games to be honest, but many thanks. "Overpriced rubbish"? Each to their own.
And even if you are into emulation, why buy a Switch for £250 when you could do the same thing on a Raspberry Pi (not that I condone either)? If any suggestion is overpriced rubbish, it's yours.
Why are you here?
Have looked over the past few pages for an answer, but nothing...if I switch my Nintendo account region and buy Mario Kart and Splatoon 2 off the South African eShop, then switch my region back to UK, I'll have no issues playing the games? especially online? I don't know how Nintendo online works but I don't really want to be playing on South African or whatever servers when I'm in the UK! Thanks for any replies.
If you buy in the SA store and swap to the UK store it is exactly the same as if you bought it on the UK store. It shows on your account, you can re-download it, it's in English etc.
Ok, thanks. I'd also be playing on UK servers too for online?
It's as if you bought and are playing the UK version in every way once you switch your account back.
