I don't like the aesthetic as much as the Switch 1. Looks a little too sleek, too monochrome, not Nintendo-y enough. Other than the splash of color around the thumbsticks it looks like any number of those handheld Steam Deck-alikes that have been coming out.

That said I always wait for the special Zelda editions of Nintendo's consoles, so I don't know that I have standing to complain.

Nintendo is not Nintendo-y enough for a while now. The switch system UI is bland and on launch the gray switch was the one being presented.

Speaking of - does anyone know of an HTPC frontend which duplicates the look and feel of the Wii menu?

Who even runs HTPCs these days?

I was interested in disconnecting my smart TV from the internet and using a replacement which I am in complete control of.

As to "who", some part of the demographic who runs JellyFin/Plex/Etc.
