Getting this too. As a parent not being able to pause makes it impossible to make any significant progress and leaves me with a game that can't be played, I'm not sure how such a tried and tested feature was missed.
It's almost been a couple of months, how can I get a refund or a code to play the game that I bought on another platform (e.g. PC) which doesn't have these issues?
In reality this game should not have been released on Switch due to the known performance issues. A delayed release for this platform should have been scheduled such as The Witcher 3 (which I might add is a much more demanding title that runs fine).
I wish hadn't bought it as it was for the kids because they love Minecraft but they just get frustrated and cry that it doesn't work. If you have social media post about it on there to help raise awareness and make this a priority.
Maybe a class-action lawsuit by a consumer watchdog would helps us get the product we paid for, after all it isn't fit for purpose so there is probably grounds for compensation in there somewhere.
This is 100% their fault and responsibility. They choose the game engine and the platforms the want to target. They shouldn't have released it for the Switch because there is no way they wouldn't know about these issues.
At this point targeting their bottom line and highlighting the bad business practices like what happened to CD Projekt Red might be the only way to get some movement on this.

I'm seeing bad performance in both handheld and docked modes. It often slows down to an unplayable state and is more noticeable with the map open.
