I love the Ethernet port. Normally everybody follows Apple in the fight against number of built-in ports in general, and in particular it's very rare to have an Ethernet port on a mobile device which can be extremely limiting.

- effingwewt 5y agoSeriously what's up with people touting the ethernet port when it's only added because of the dismally powered wifi chip.It had to be throttled so as not to interfere with the BT joycons. So, rather than fix the issue they throw in wired so people won't complain? At this point they need to make a home console and a handheld separately. I love my switch (2.0),but the wireless issues drive me insane. No way in hell will I reward them by buying this version.
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoThat's in relation to portable devices though; the device itself doesn't have an ethernet port, the docking station does.
- majkinetor 5y agoI love Ethernet port ? OMG, we are in 2021. Ethernet ports should be on ones body already and people love that 2021 nintendo added one. Amazed.
- dvfjsdhgfv 5y agoWell, kind of. It's obviously a matter of personal taste but we've had GbE for two decades whereas even with 802.11ax you are lucky to get more than 500 Mbps. It's extremely useful not just for the Internet but mainly for local network communication. Why have a bottleneck when you can have much higher speeds? More importantly, it sends a message to other vendors they shouldn't remove the Ethernet port too hastily. Apple won't listen, someone else might. Really, too many companies seem to reason "Apple removed it so can we." At least someone can point out: "Nintendo did it, too, and later regretted it."
