I played the first episode of that
It was fine? I guess
The only one I played was the Dangeresque 3 episode. It was consistently, "yeah, ok, this is mildly funny. I can play this." up until the grand finale, which could have easily been adapted into one of the better cartoons on the website.
So did the NES Classic just never come back in stock after whatever was available at release? Was it a one-time thing, or has Nintendo said anything at all about ever making more?
I've kept an eye on Amazon and other stores, news sites and threads here, and never heard anything after the first month.

They restocked on amazon the week before the switch released. It sold out in about 15-20 minutes. I don't know beyond that.
Apparently, based on initial sales, Nintendo is ramping up production of the Switch. They're aiming to produce 10 million through the next fiscal year
If they have decent sellthrough, it'll mean the Switch will end up outselling the Wii U in a year and change
Wait you mean like the entire run of the Wii U?
The Wii U ended up selling around 14 million units or some other low-ass number that's about a third less than the Gamecube

Ran into a weird issue last night where it's like the system OS became unresponsive but I was still able to play the game.
Capture and Home buttons wouldn't work, power button wouldn't put it into sleep mode, all I could do was hold the power button for 10 or so seconds to completely power the system off and back on again and that fixed it.
On the gaming podcasts I listen to it seems like a fairly even split between people using it primarily in docked and undocked modes, and they seem pretty happy with the hardware either way. If you only care about one mode then maybe it's not perfectly optimized to you, but I do think they nailed it with it being useable in both

With the exception of the system level stuff becoming unresponsive last night, and that's the first time it's happened to me, I've had no problems with the system. Took it with me on my trip and I was surprised how well the battery held up actually, and by how fast it charges.
I've had a soft lock (controls stopped responding but game was clearly still running in the background) once, and that's playing pretty much every day and never fully shutting down. I'm a little worried that it's gonna be a Thing where you gotta exit games somewhat regularly to prevent stuff like that but it could also very easily just be a firmware thing that can be easily updated in the future (we're years of stability updates behind Wii U and 3DS after all) so it's not a huge deal, I don't think.

I don't think I can really back this opinion up with anything that's just how I remember feeling

Surprised to hear it's STILL hard to find, though.

Sounds like there'll be a decent chance of a good bundle near the holidays, then.

Aren't they going to pull a Sega and go third party any day now
I actually really like that Tingle plush
Nintendo should unswitch the Switch to avoid a Kinect-astrophe - New system's bundled "home" kit already appears to be the worst of all worlds.
It's like yeah, that's what Nintendo should do, get rid of the main selling point of the system
You clearly haven't brought a switch on an airplane yet.
presumably they could add additional strengths eventually, but for the moment, that's it for me
no regrets either, the system is worth it for just that.
I've played an undocked Switch. It is an improvement over a Wii U but if it is intended as a "portable first" device they missed hard.
Ars's switch coverage has been a bit odd.
It's a "whatever you want it to be" device.
If that were the case it would be a very different machine altogether.

I despise when that second screen is used for anything other than menu management because I am left-handed.
The joystick is also on the left.
Did I do the thing right? The thing where we express our opinion as fact over and over again snootily?
We're all discussing our new toy like adults. I have no idea what you're doing.
This checks out. I've had a fantastic time with it in portable mode on Shovel Knight. I've been much less impressed with Breath of the Wild, though.
Yes good job I liked the use of "and that's that", a classic
