Brief: Helping Nintendo Switch users discover quality games
Responsibilities: User Research, Design + Prototyping Project Context: UCSC MS-HCI, Fall 2024 Team: Keith, Noor, Aashi, Rishab
As a part of one of my core classes (Intro to HCI Research Methods) at UC Santa Cruz, students were divided into teams of 4 and tasked to work on a given problem statement and formulate an evidence-based design solution.
My group chose to work on the storefront (eShop) of the Nintendo Switch console, the best selling console of all-time, meant to help users discover and purchase games to play.
