Seen that video, I really hope this isn't a common occurrence. Makes me want to hold off on buying a Switch for a long time. I really hope they get those issues figured out, or else they might have a lot of angry customers. Meh, I'll wait for emulation XD. Also, I think I'll stick with a Xbox Project Scorpio console this year... 

 

not that big of an issue, zelda, smash, splatoon, 123 switch and other promised games are the reason its worth getting.

Wasn't it because it's pretty easy to install them in the wrong way or something?

not that big of a issue as this video makes it, the channel highlights bad issues with devices, he also made a video about defective ps4

its not, this video is highlighting defective units 

and design issues. The joycons are really easy to put on backwards, kids are going to fuck it up, no software is going to fix that, and for 400$ Why buy this when Zelda is on Wii U?

Why do you always die right after I fix you?

Has there been a major hardware release in 2016 or 2017 from any company that hasn't just ended up being a disaster? MacBook Pro, Note 7...

The switch is an under powered device near the end of its lifespan. Portability and it's 4 games. Alright, I cant see a reason to spend 400$ on it but if that's worth it for you.

not going to argue, the switch is the most powerful handheld yet, it has a lot more than 4 games and to answer your question yes zelda , smash 123 switch, splatoon and over 70 other promised games is worth it for me http://ca.ign.com/wikis/nintendo-switch/Nintendo_Switch_Games http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-03-03-nintendo-switch-games-confirmed-games-list-launch-titles

Because it's portable. 720p screen is enough. Graphics look nice, and it's got good exclusives coming soon.

Except it's literally the Wii U, but on a chip and not based on the shitty PowerPC architecture. It's not gonna kill the PS4/XB1. 

idk
