Got invited to hanami (picnic beneath the cherry blossom) about a month ago by two friends, and decided to take the Switch with me. I was a bit nervous about randomly suggesting "hey shall we play a game?", and apparently rightly so because they weren't very enthusiastic at first. We still played a bit of Snipperclips though. Unfortunately one of the two girls was completely lost and didn't understand the game and couldn't figure out the controls (even though we played the tutorial!) so it didn't last very long (also the park was going to close). But hey, we still had some fun!
Later I was in the common room of the uni dorm with a few friends having pizza and some other people came in when I took out the Switch. We played a bit of 1-2-Switch and Snipperclips, but again most people didn't understand/like Snipperclips and we were all too full from pizza to play the more intensive 1-2-Switch games, so we mostly stuck to treasure chest and ball count. That got dull pretty quick.
Wish I could go travel back to those two moments, this time with Mario Kart. That's exactly the game I needed to make people get more into it, I guess.
I had one extremely successful 1-2-Switch party though, but I actually invited people to that so it doesn't really count for this thread
