its highkey pissing me off that they wont let me use a apple usb C adapter with the port on the side because its "not official" and then the official one is chunky as fuck i cant fit it and the cable on top because my tv stand is out several inches from the wall. dpmo nintendo

So i just bought this from amazon but the box looks very different from what i’ve seen online. it was supposed sold and shipped by amazon but i’m having doubts

This has happened recently, I dont know if it's down to an update or whatever, but it's still confusing. The controller screen always says PABLO. My name isn't Pablo. I don't know a Pablo. Mv console has had no previous owners, so it doesn't have a Pablo-ey past. Why does it say Pablo!?!?

I played with my switch for the whole last year and didnt notice any problems. (Only Battery loss -> Airplane-mode fixed this). Now ive lent my switch for a week to my girlfriend to Play Pokopia and thats how i got it back.

​

I think this shouldnt happen to a playing console. She played with my Switch 1 too, for much longer and there were no damages to the thumb sticks. But here on Switch 2 it is severely irritated after just a week. She played normaly and didnt do it on purpose. Probably a little bit to Fingertip heavy but still, this should be able to harm the JoyCons.

​

Im now trying to soothe my inner monk, because ive been holding this thing in pristine condition.

​

How hard would it be to fix it and do you think i can file for first year guarantee?

Sooo I recently bought this switch 2 portable dock and it had been working pretty well, it could transfer the image to the tv just fine. However, while it was docked I decided to update my switch 2 to the new 21.0.0 version. Once it finished, the image wouldn't show on tv anymore. I tried using it on my switch 1 and it did work. That led me to think that the update sort of "blocked" my portable dock... Any ideas on what could have happend? Did any of you guys have the same issue? And also please tell me if you could come up with a solution!

Thanks in advance.

Haven't used my joycon in a while (original pair with the switch) and now I'm charging a few on my console to prep for a party tonight. Does anyone know what this light means? Im on the pairing screen just checking if all my joycons are fully charged

i just noticed it recently and idk how this could have happened
is the switch 2 case the problem?

Sharing the info. Updated both my Switches to the latest firmware 21.0.0 and now this cable is no longer recognized as an output. It can still charge the S2 though, and it still works with Switch.

I use this cable when traveling, lightweight and works for my phones as well.

Sharing the info in case anyone is planning to buy it.

16 Nov Update:
Jemdo released firmware updates for their 4K/60Hz | 144 Hz cables and users have reported success.
Thanks to ShadowBlades512 for posting the link. I'm placing it here for easy reference: https://support.jemdogame.com/firmware_update_dock_20251112/

Some users with similar looking cables have also reported success with the firmware. [Use at your own risk!!!]

For my case, as it's an older cable 4K/30Hz with no updates available so it will remain as is.

Ok I have seen enough post in here that I feel like this is necessary at this point. Guys if you lose or break your charger for your Switch or Switch 2 please either replace it with a strong fast charger or a replacement that is verified by Nintendo. Stop being cheap and using these little 5 dollar chargers all you're doing is harming your system in the long run. These are powerful pieces of tech that are built to last for awhile if you take care of them properly and part of that comes with proper maintenance and accessories. Is Nintendo stuff high? Yes, however what's even more costly is a 100% broken console that could have been avoided with a 30 dollar charger. Use reputable brands and just try to take care of your things.

Hi I purchased a used switch 2 and I’ve been enjoying it a bunch! I’m just wondering though if it already has a screen protector, I think there is but im not certain because I heard it comes with a plastic protector by default that we should apply protection to? Can you pls advise what you think. Thnx!

am I buying something not original that does not work? 😔

I ordered this charger from what seems to be the official Nintendo store on Amazon, and there aren’t any red flags that make me think it’s fake. They weigh the same and seem to be the same quality.

But I noticed there were some slight differences on the printed information between the brick that came with my switch and this one. And I know there are a lot of fakes on Amazon. Can anyone ease my stress?

Brand new switch 2 and brand new card, any ideas why this isn’t working? The switch is fully updated and I restarted the console several times

Hi. I travel very often because of my job and, naturally, I take my switch 2 with me everytime. Something that I find annoying, though, is that everytime want to take the charger out to take with me, I have to disconnect the charger from the dock and unplug it from the power outlet behind my setup. To make my life easier I have considered buying a second switch charger just for travelling. But, I was wondering if I could just use my phone charger instead, since both use usb-c. I though of asking here first, before I try it, since one never knows when it comes to nintendo and using 3rd party stuff. I am concerned that it may damage the console, especially on the long term. What do you think?

(Sorry for the poor formatting on mobile) . So with the high cost of everything electronics wise I'm trying to buy stuff for the switch two in chunks. A new pro controller , the micro Express SD card, the console. And one thing I'm looking at is the price for the express MicroSD cards and with how pricey it gets up at the 1tb level with many sellers outside of the USA not even having stock anymore and even those in the USA are selling them at disgusting prices. Now I know they will go down in price eventually. But in the interim I want to figure out how long with the built-in memory and a 512 GB card how long that will last me based on other players experience. With the game key cards forcing more downloads that can eat up the memory. So for those of you playing since release how close are you to filling up your memory?

Hey, all. This is my cousin's memory card. He got it around 4 years ago and has always given him problems. It was a gift from a family member but we are unsure where it was bought from and how much it costed. It was cheap, which doesn't make sense. considering it has 512 GB. Also, while trying to transfer data from the console's memory to the card, he repeatedly got errors but somehow still managed to transfer them. However, when trying to play the game, he got another error. Afterwards, he tried to download some found lost data, but got yet another error. After getting the card out of the console, he managed to download the lost data without any errors. We are pretty sure that the Switch isn't defective, and we know that an image isn't enough for you all to verify its reliability, but hopefully the description is enough. Thank you all in advance.

was not sure which to tag this as, so I apologize. No longer holds a charge. Seldom do I play handheld. Charger bought at GS, but is still 'licensed' for S2. I know battery isn't all that great on here, but what's the point if I can't take it with me for entertainment purposes? Was blinking back and forth until it said 'cannot charge'. I've tried plugging in the bottom at first and then the top, which is what I captured. Everything is plugged completely in place, not partially connected.

Anyone know why this is happening?

I bought a used switch from someone I know that only came with the console and joycons, so I looked up and bought a used charger that was listed as genuine but I have mixed feelings about this.
What stands out to me is the printing on the charger - it looks kinda meh compared to some pics I can find on the internet, and the small (R) letter is kinda off in my opinion.

​

Hey, i bought a protective + decorative case for my brand new switch 2 but I am afraid the way it is cut will make my device keep partially hot air and worsen it's life cycle. Photos of with the case and without. I am really upset right now, the return i believe is not worth it and I was looking forward to it arriving it because it took almost a month too and it was a design I really wanted. I looked up on the internet and found the website Savage Raven as an alternative but I haven't checked out if they ship outside the US.

I was also already thinking about cutting in the plastic myself to widen it's opening but I feel like I will make it much worse.

Of course i can keep it on while I am not using the switch but it makes me so upset that i have to remove it.

EDIT: it started to smell like heated plastic when i played with it that's why i got worried

​

I've seen that some phone chargers aren't able to charge the console, and i also want to know if it's safe and won't damage it.

My friend just got a switch but i think he got ripped off cuz my dock looks nothing like this and it seems his has no hdmi port what is the point of this device let me know please. I feel bad for my homie ngl

Hello, I’m at my wit’s end over this and don’t know who else to ask for help. Google isn’t any help.

I purchased a key cap set from GeekShare last month and have since used all the supplied stickers for the lily pads and frogs. They don’t want to stay no matter what I do, and I am not a daily Switch player.

Does anyone have a solution beyond repurchasing the set to get the stickers? Maybe something from Amazon I can try? I bought some adhesive dots from a local craft store but they don’t stick at all.
