Okay think about this.

Switch

1. You carefully pull the game card door open forward towards the screen. Hoping not to break a nail ( if you have any )
2. Then you grab by the sides of the door and some how pull it up and reverse the other direction.
3. Insert the card in till it snaps
4. Then reverse Usually just closing the top back, which goes back down in a odd manor

Now if it was like my SD slot on my camera, where.

1. I remove the rubbery cover that dangles by a thread of my $2000 purchase.
2. I insert the card, if a card is in there then I press down the card to eject
3. I put back that dangling rubber in it's place.

or

1. I insert into my printer, or computer, and we are good to go.

That is like four moves. In comparison to a NES. ( the fact no cleaning or hot air required ) and all parts are working normally without any other steps.

1. You open the door of the NES,
2. You click up and insert the game firmly.
3. You close the door of the NES. Pressing power ( however chance is even a blinking NES could load and pull at random while putting another game in ).

For a gameboy ( the way it should be ), but there is no slide safety door.

1. You insert a game and slide the power button that secures the game.

For a SNES ( the way it should be ).

2. You insert a game and push power switch ( locking into place half of the time ).

I guess that extra moves on the switch is literally for "Water protection" or even to prevent a dirty-slot situation from happening since kiddies are spilling and dropping the stuff all the time ?

But honestly that door pull it foward and then back again. How often does it break and is there any real protection or advantage from having a door at all ?

I am talking about out-of-the-box ripping-open-Xmas-gift seven year old. Not some guy who still uses a a CD-rom drive that resembles something out of a PSP UMD situation. Which is why we ask ourselves. Why didn't Nintendo just made the GCN portable and hold an age requirement ( there lack of safety ).
Oh wait I know? the user does not even need to know how to read any instructional manual, despite it being displayed ever five seconds.
