I\u2019m not a huge guy, but I would say I\u2019m large. I\u2019m six feet tall and 220 lbs. I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s large by your standards, but I\u2019m certainly not svelte.<\/p>\n

And the Nintendo Switch does not fit in any of my pockets.<\/p>\n

Nintendo will launch its hybrid home\/handheld console March 3 for $300, but I\u2019m playing around with one right now. This has given me plenty of opportunities to take the thing out into the real world, which has forced me to figure out how to carry the damn thing around when I\u2019m not using it. Turns out that pockets probably aren\u2019t the best tool for this particular job.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had no problem ever putting a 3DS or 3DS XL into my pants pocket, but the Switch might not work in this situation. It is long enough that it sticks a few inches out of my pants pouch. Additionally, the analog sticks poke out in a way that makes me nervous about them getting damaged. Overall, however, having the Switch in my side pocket was more uncomfortable than anything else. If I attempted to sit down, for example, the system would\u2019ve dug into my hip, and that\u2019s difficult to ignore.<\/p>\n

Other than for walking from one room to the other, I have never put a lot of devices in my back pocket. That\u2019s not going to change for the Switch. The system sticks out even further here, and all the other stuff about comfort and the analog sticks applies as well.<\/p>\n

Nope. This won\u2019t work. It is going to fall out of here. Maybe your Starter jacket has big zipper pockets that you can use, but I\u2019m not lucky enough to have a Starter jacket.<\/p>\n

This is so stupid. I honestly didn\u2019t even think that this would work, but I eventually got the Switch into my shirt pocket. I think this should illustrate just how squat the system is. It is not tall, it isn\u2019t thick, but it is wide as hell. That\u2019s the issue with putting it in anything. What\u2019s nuts is that it actually was more comfortable on my chest than anywhere else, so I\u2019ve actually taken to putting the Switch in there when I\u2019m walking from room to room.<\/p>\n
