The most absurd shite I've seen yet.

Seriously, I can't help but think this has to be satire.

The comments both on the video and the thread on r/switch are golden.

I mean, the stand looks a little flimsy, but they're not working with it in any real, natural way. Who thought it'd be a good idea to post this.

I really like Jeff Bakalar from cnet, and I'd hate to think he had something to do with this getting out.

Playing in that setup seems like the less use case. No one will be doing this. I bought a controller when owning the Shield Tablet thinking I would do the same. Nope. You end up playing with the thing on your lap with a controller.

It does look like cheap plastic, but whatever.

Bakalar tweet:

To clear the air: the kickstand video was made by and is the opinion of one of our editors in SF. My full review will hit later in the week

Well that dipshit doesn't need to be an editor if he calls it a "kickstand fail" while he is pushing the damn console over and breaking the plastic stand off.

This is the same guy that posted a couple of days ago that he sliced open his finger taking off the joy-con's wrist straps, not because the attachment is sharp or metal, mind you... he sliced open his finger ON HIS OWN FINGERNAILS.

hopefully he'll slice his throat open next time he dries himself with a towel. Impossible you say? Apparently not with this guy.
