Are there any other games device that can work after a 1000 Feet (300 Meters) free fall???

My handhelds were also semi-indestructible until the 3DS. My launch DS Phat doesn't have a scratch on it despite going with me EVERYWHERE, and it wasn't until my FIVE 3DSes that they started breaking every two seconds.

I actually pre-ordered a 2DS XL just because my launch n3DS XL is already worn out and that's been what, two years? Three?

Or maybe it is just the fact that the left joycon took the full blow. Remembering one of the reviewers the switch unit is fucked now since it won't lock the left side now

take your PS4 or Xbone or PC, glue a controller to the side and drop it from 1000 feet and see how it fares.

Sony does not invest in researching for durability, PS4 is a PC inside a custome made casket

It's not the dock bending the Switch, it's that some Switches have poor fans and it gets so goddamn hot it warps slightly.

It's somewhat of an issue with the launch Switches but has calmed down. You'd have to be playing for literally hours on end for it to do it though.

>Again go to the 2:10-2:13 mark of the video. When the Switch falls flat the wind carries it and slows it down. You can easily appreciate it in the video. This saved it from harm. Do the same in a vacuum and it will break to pieces.
>>
>>378715282
So essentially later production Switches are safe?

>sony-tier hardware
FUCK
I meant software
i.e. bad software
>>
>>378715282
the Switch GPU/CPU would have shut down before the system would have become hot enough to warp, it's probably an issue with the plastic they used which does have other issues, or it came warped, I'm not saying that the heat warped it but the generally extra durable plastic has some strange chemical reactions.
>>
>>378715193
I do wonder if it's because of the massive sony shilling or if nintendo switch is really wrecking their shit

like, that's the only place I've seen that stated that "switch is a poorly thought out, poorly designed hardware"

Consolefags go to the most ludicrous lengths to attack other consoles and defend theirs.

But this is just on another fucking level.

>>378715305
And that's what happens when you learn physics from videogames

>>378715305
this is your brain on Neogaf.
>>
>>378710070
it obliterated one of the joycons and the rest of it only lived because of that
>>
>>378715975
again, physics don't work that way, joycons don't magically absorb impact

and there have been numerous tests without the joycons

is 1000ft enough for it to reach terminal velocity? if so, the thing could survive any fall, really
at least as long as it lands on one of the joycons so it takes the impact instead of the console I guess

still, it was either a very lucky landing, or the switch really is a very well built console

I have two Switches

Both have bent docks, both have AUX buzzing, one has a loose creaky right trigger, one both joycons are loose and wobbly.


The Switches build quality is garbage

lmao, it fucking almost fell into a drain.
>>
>>378710070
Well the joycon does take most of the impact. Seems smart then that they detach and can be replaced. But I doubt it would survive without the joy-cons attached.

>>378717370
You getting really unlucky doesn't equate to the majority who have had good experiences with the hardware.
