>Before the Nintendo Switch launched, many fans were worried about the console’s battery life. Some Japanese gamers are now reporting that their console’s battery life is quickly depleting. In a handful of videos posted on Twitter, the Switch’s battery percentage can be seen decreasing at a ridiculous speed. It’s common for batteries to weaken as they become older, but this seems very early.

4 months old and it's already fucking literally dying
There is no saving this one, it's gonna die even quicker than the Wii U
Either that or Nintendo will release a Nintendo Switch 2 next year
Either way Nintendo is beyond doomed, oh but still, please try to come up with something to defend it this time.

Did Nintendo make these things from spare WiiU parts?

Why can't you just accept that the Switch is a success?
>>
>>383707143
I have, it's a smashing success just like the WiiU.
>>
That's just the same battery percent miscalibration that people reported since the first week.

It literally doesn't change anything, it just makes your Switch display the wrong percentage, you could still play the entire charge normally even after it gives the 1% left warning.

>>
>>383707697
Not that Anon, but yes, the Switch has a function that isn't working properly in what I assume is software side, not hardware side. The core functionality of the system remains in-tact. Nintendo needs to fix it with a firmware update, I agree.

Probably from letting it sit and overheat in the dock, along with constantly charging it at 100%. Should always let a battery get close to empty before recharging, the dock is a surefire way to kill it early.

it's just a visual bug of the battery status, turn it off and on again to fix it

Battery bar and signal strength have always been massively off. Most phones can easily die around the 20% mark to single digits where it's just the luck of the draw what it would be.

To extend the life of your battery you want to cycle it as few times as possible, meaning you shouldn't let the battery discharge at all when possible

You're legally insane if you think the first GBA wasn't a piece of shit. Literally impossible to play games with except indoors right under a halogen lamp you bolted on your "GBA corner" cause otherwise the screen is pitch black.

what if it's just a battery glitch like the OLED vita models.

old vitas had a glitch where the battery would drain super fast unless you take it out and reset it.

You're in the minority for thinking the GBA fat had an acceptable screen. It was enough of an issue that many GBA games were made oversaturated to compensate, ex Harmony of Dissonance.

Just replace it? A new battery is usually $5-10.

Also

no you had to play it in the sun or in the right light or it was way too dark

This reminds me of the time back in the day where south Florida got ravaged by Hurricane Wilma and my house went without power for about two weeks. I remember my only source of entertainment being my GBA, playing it in the dark next to a kerosene lamp in my bed. Strangely comfy memory.
