I wonder if we’ll hear reports about issues with hand sizes in Asian countries.
I remember when the original Xbox came out, there were lots of articles going on about how Xbox wouldn’t do well, or wasn’t doing well, and all of the reports claiming it was because the controller was “too big for them”, and totally not related to a lack of software for their target audience (no RPGs), lol.
Because now it totally shouldn’t be due to a lack of software, but times have changed and curious to see if a sliver of racism will reappear in these so-called reports.

You know different types of people do have different size hands, right? Not sure how it's racism to think comfort might play a role.
But hey this is Reddit and everything has to be racist these days right?

People often bring up Japanese hand size when discussing the design of the Switch despite the near identical hand size of the average Japanese and American male. Americans think their hands are larger when they’re actually just fatter.

What was with that awful original Xbox controller size in the states when it came out? Did they just think everyone here had gigantic hands or something lol.

Crazy how up in arms Redditors get when they think they’re being accused of fucking racism. Calm down.

I didn't think you were accusing me of racism, is your reading comprehension really that poor?

Well... Bias would always be there. But this is like the 1st mass market handheld that you can play PC games on, that's probably the coverage.
