According to some users on Reddit, the Nintendo Switch console appears to be bending from heat, or warping, when kept in its dock too long. A photo originally posted by user _NSR on Reddit shows their Switch is no longer straight after long gaming sessions.
Other users have also chimed in, some who have already contacted Nintendo’s support about a fix or replacement. There has been no official word from the company yet about this particular issue.
Have you noticed this issue, Switch owners?










Oh god no
i’ve been keeping the switch constantly moving from dock, hand and table
but mostly i keep it docked and never manhandle it
but oh joy another thing to worry about
I guess you have to look at the pros and.. joyCONS?!
*cracks knuckles*
I’m your favorite
Hopefully Nintendo addresses this issue soon, it would be pretty terrible to have Switch users’ experiences to be ruined already by the bending.
The comments in the Reddit thread are great
Not only that, but of the comments on Reddit itself are hilarious XD
Nintendo has to release a new better dock and it has to compensate the earlier adopters like me. I had scratches in the screen, heat issues (the dock covers the back coolers) and frame rate drop because of that. We need an alternate dock, or just a cable to connect it to the TV and power.
If you want you could use a female to male USB-C cable.
Constantly glad I didn’t buy this at launch
Yeah if they don’t address this well then l will probably wait a bit longer to buy a Switch
Same :///
Tbh, it’s not a good idea to buy a console on first release, things like that happened before with other consoles
Oh god my school’s new videos are ultimate cringe. They just have this girl standing there clearly uncomfortable singing in Japanese
It’s like a student musical talent segment and it’s just…. errrrrrrghfsdeed
So today…
I got paralyzed twice on a crucial move in the same match. Scizor didn’t break through and get a OhKO after getting paralyzed by thunderbolt… than when the guy got cocky it happened again
Another game I have an easy raikou sweep and a Keldeo gets a crit Hydro Pump
Eh i looked and i font have this issue, and i play strictly docked because of fear of scratching my screen
I haven’t noticed a problem…
…then again i don’t own a Switch.
Whelp
wow that head

Offensive Decidueye is best Decidueye confirmed. I’ve gotten to 1300 with it and it wins me games frequently
until you run scared when anything has Knock Off
(It actually can live knock off from Gliscor, something I learned the hard way… especially with a Z-Crystal)
But it’s still actually quite good. It’s Z crystal is flat out one of the best in the entire game, enough to bolster its viability a ton
HA Gliscor with knock off funny stuff
But no anything else would ruin you
I know, but it’s still good
Trust me, if you know a mon has knock off, don’t leave it in. If you do, you deserve to lose it…
Plus, it’s very obvious to tell what mons run it and what don’t
To be entirely frank, Pursuit is the move that tends to kill it. If you know a mon has it, you just play it more carefully, like I do with my Araquanid around mantine or Honckrow
Now that we’ve pretty much gone through Sun and Moon, what would be your 6 pokemon you’d take with you on your journey? Spanning all regions?
Legends or no?
I wouldn’t
I’m asking the questioner
Nah, lets forego the legends and mythical ones.
It is very hard to include so many of my Pokemon
But if I had to choose

What’s this site again where you create the characters like this?
http://www.justfuckinggoogleit.com/
Too many different ones come up!
It’s here
https://pokecharms.com/trainer-card-maker
Btw if you pay attention to earthen’s card you can see the link to the webpage :p
Assuming that mythicals aren’t allowed:
– Chandelure
– Galvantula
– Gliscor
– Weavile
– Gallade
– Parasect/Porygon Z
Without legends
-Araquanid
-Decidueye
-Kommo-O
-Flygon
-Ampharos/Eelktros
-Noivern/Gourgeist
cofagrigus,garbodor,yanmega,hydreigon,metagross,decidueye
Oh, that’s so tough because I love so many Pokémon!
Lopunny
Gardevoir
Primarina
Froslass
Tsareena
Staraptor/Tokekiss
I could probably make two teams actually omg.
I left out Furret, Mimikyu and Sylveon!
nothing but gurly pokemon
Sirknight
tell that to google images
Staraptor isn’t really
Togekiss is
Girly Pokémon that will kick your ass
Unlikely
Aerodactyl alone can easily dispatch at least 6 of those pokemon
and the rest i can easily overwhelm with raw brute strength
Mine would be:
Samurott
Incineroar
Crabominable
Beartic
Umbreon
Komala/Ninetales (Alola Form)
I’m only doing 1 starter just to be more game like and no Legendaries so
-Samurott
-Noctowl
-Weavile
-Heracross
-Ambipom
-Togedemaru
Or With Legendaries
-Torterra
-Noctowl
-Weavile
-Ambipom
-Heracross
-Suicune
(Didn’t want overlapping types)
Wait Switch Noctowl to Flygon
Or just look at my card

Decidueye gets smack down….
Picture the image of a Decidueye smacking a Ninjask out of the sky by sniping it
yeah BOOM HEADSHOT
Basically
yeah
What sounds better…
Montiki or Chimitiki
Kongidol or Apeffigy
Montiki and Kongidol, though the latter’s not the best. Like I feel it just needs one less letter to sound like a pokemon name. Like Konidol, or Kongdol or something, though those arn’t great. Its just the issue that you can see it as two separate words rather then a mashup of the two.
i know but the reason i might need to change them to avoid clashing with my Monk/Shaolin Warrior Monkey Monkii and Wufookong (Which are Fighting/Psychic and the concept i just love too much to scrap)
Hard call, and those other names are really good. Just do what you feel is right and don’t look back on it.
the coolest part about Wufookong is that they’re blind by choice
they fight solely on extreme heightened senses and they do it by keeping their eyes shut
if they ever open them, they are overwhelmed by the surroundings and go into a frenzy
Are non status Z-moves actually good competitively
Certain ones. Parting shot, memento, Hypnosis, celebration, and conversion to name a few
and the stupidly annoying LIKE SPLASH AND CONVERSION
I said conversion
And honestly? Splash isn’t nearly as good as people make it out to be…. unless gyrados uses it… but besides that
Screw Gyarados
Mimikyu is the real threat
Mimikyu is literally an easy kill for me every time I fight it. It’s stupidly easy to counter
with said counter, but Swords Dance Weakness policy is not to be trifled with
It is though with
-anything that lowers Attack
-anything with intimidate
-anything that can burn or paralyze it
-anything that’s naturally faster
-a steel type
Basically a lot of things. I’ve literally NEVER lost a single mon to a Mimikyu in competitive before
Flynium-Z salamance and Grassium-Z Volcarona work great for me.
And I’ve also seen Grassium-Z Heatran and Flynium-Z Gyarados a lot.
Well I went to the store today final got a new E-Shop card now to rebirth Bank and get me a Komasan background for my DS 😀
And now I’m ready for Easter!
kind of happy I didnt buy this at launch right now with some of the issues going on. hopefully they can be fixed soon
In reality though this stuff is happening to a very small vocal minority
Yeah, but it’s still best they address some of the problems
Oh of course
You’re the last person I expected to say that since you said you don’t preorder for this reason, but yeah. In a survey (correct me if I’m wrong), 4% of users reported problems, which is pretty good against the 10% of the PS3 and the 52% of the Xbox 360.
Which is the exact reason I didn’t preorder…
No, don’t get me wrong, I know that. Which is why it’s suprising to hear you say that it’s only a small percentage.
I think she acknowledges it, but just doesn’t want to be part of that small percentage (and I agree).
That’s understandable. Who knows, my Switch could be bent by the end of the week, and if so, I only have myself to blame (and Nintendo, I guess). I just adopted it early out of a nagging concern that there might be low stock and I wouldn’t be able to pick it up after they work out the kinks.
True. It’s unlikely though, so luck is probably on your side
Haha, hopefully it will be for once.
i am so sorry for replying so late. and you are right but with my luck it would happen to me lol I am one of the ones who got a defective ds lite that randomly broke in half. was literally walking through my local mall(which is now gone rip) playing pokemon emerald and it just randomly broke in half.
Man I’m glad I didn’t buy Switch right now
oh you lot are being ridiculous
This is a minor flaw to those who aren’t careful with the equipment, every new console could potentially have errors and we need people buying them early to scout them out to send feedback
Nope, mine’s been flawless. And while it’s not a reason to disregard the complaints of those who seem to be having issues, a large majority of Switches work fine.
Hello
Hello, ditto.
Hello
How are you on this wonderful period of time in which the earth rotates once on its axis?

Hello sluggy thing…..don’t worry about being sluggy it’s better than being a human.
Dedenne, I’ll be on pretty much all night if you wanna battle. Sorry about yesterday, I got wrapped up in stuff.
Props to ya boi smogon for updating the DPP metagame before releasing NU for SuMo
I’m planning on buying Switch, if they release a pokemon game to it, I hope switch doesn’t have major issue when Pokemon releases
OOOOOOOO
Yooka-Laylee info spilling, including the last of the words one being a muggy buggy swamp maze and some kinda space pirate one OMG I CANT WAIT YEEEEEEE
Where the frack is everyone,

I hit things and make them go dead
Heros never die!
Death is a minor inconvenience to the likes of us Adventurers
