No Technical Issue
The president of Nintendo, Reggie FilsAime, also added that there is no issue of widespread technical nature. All problems are also being tackled on a prompt basis, which includes the complaints about the left JoyCon and Bluetooth connectivity problems.
Spare Docks
Many owners of the Nintendo Switch devices have also found a problem with the dock and are asking for replacements. In response to these demands, the President of Nintendo said that some more spare docks would soon start being available. However, users must not expect that they will get a cable that is made by Nintendo for replacing the functionality of the faulty dock. According to Nintendo, the dock offers protection to the console and prevents it from getting C/HDMI cables, as these will be easier to carry.
Off to a Good Start
Nintendo’s Switch has been in the market for about a week now, being available at a price of $299 from March 3rd. It is a novel device and offers non-conventional possibilities, thereby inviting a lot of scrutiny. Five days on in its sale, it continued to become the fast selling gaming console in the US, beating the Wii and the Nintendo DS, both of which were launched during the holiday season.
