Yes, I'm talking about the OS/device itself.

I rather like the way the XL feels, personally.

Sure, games are fun, it's just the device to play them in is a huge turn off and hinders my enjoyment of them. The quality of the screen, the terrible circle pad, the cheap buttons, bad battery etc. I'm not arguing any of those as a fact either, for me the ergonomics are terrible.

iOS has great games too, but those damn touch controls are insane.
