The Switch in general is garbage.

Never-mind being able to save your game on your cartridge (like a normal system), the files now save on the console itself. Which means if anything happens to it -- all of your progress is just fucking gone forever. This is what really pisses me off about all these new consoles that are trying to be "modern" with downloadable content, but they do so while sacrificing integrity.
And that's what is really unforgivable to me about the Switch.

It pains me to think that someday, all games will only be available through digital download and we can kiss our cartridges (and likely our save data) goodbye.

On the bright side, at least you can backup your save data in cloud... For money. You can also still connect to players through internet like how the DSI/3DS/2DS did...but you have to pay for an online membership. But even playing alone, you still have after-games to enjoy...if you pay for them in DLC.

It really hurts that if I want to play the newest games, I have to buy into this shit -- but I would be willing to forgive literally ALL of it, even if I have to spend well over 100$, if I could just save my data on the cartridge and never have to risk losing it to a console malfunction, or damage, or loss, or theft, etc.

Even if it probably won't actually do good, I wish there was a poll bringing up these points that I could sign and we could show Nintendo what we think. In a perfect world they'd at least consider what we say, but I think we all know they wouldn't. At least it'd make us feel better.
But for now, it just looks like things are going downhill... It started with the Playstation and now it's hit portable consoles. I fear for the future.
