I have the same issue with the joy cons. They are tiny for my man hands. I really want a Pro controller but refuse to pay $70 for that controller.
that. Nintendo should have realized that adults would be playing on this thing. Damn. I have this same TV and haven't plugged mine in to the TV yet. Remodeling is done today so everything will be up today. Will report if I have the same issues with the KS8000 when I plug my switch in.
I was going to recommend plugging direct in to the TV, but that is apparently not the issue.
Like I've said before, that is not their way. They'll build something for themselves(or Japanese users in general), and then address other issues as they pop up. Or they just want to make sure they can sale you the pro controller. Either way, they win.I have the same issue with the joy cons. They are tiny for my man hands.

I like how dedicated you are to get Switches for your fam but you won't get a Pro Controller because of cost. I guess we all have to draw the line somewhere.I have the same issue with the joy cons.

That seems really strange you can't turn off either the auto-switch function or set-up, as my 2014 Samsung has similar functionality that I can turn off.
Yeah it's pretty silly I know but it's a matter of principle with that damn controller. I'm probably going to wait for the Hori one that was leaked.
There's a free snipperclips demo on the Nintendo eshop.
Hey, that's a pretty good idea actually. I guess the inside of the dock is flat then, so it can adhere in that area?
From just undocking and docking a few times, I noticed that there are these 2 protrusions on the bottom 80% of the dock that narrow more than the opening of the dock would lead you to believe they would. I still think it's something an adult could just show enough care to avoid making it an issue, but children trying to hastily dock could easily ram the system into those things. I feel like I'm playing operation whenever I take that thing out, since I'm just making certain I don't hit the plastic bumpers without a screen protector. Here's a picture where you can see one of them. There's one on all 4 corners of the opening.
I understand it's something only a minority of users will experience, but Nintendo can patch this I'm sure...it's almost like the tv assumes it's on because it's docked, I believe the Switch is trynna sends signal to the tv even when it's sleep. Or maybe Samsung can fix it. Either way it's not a deal breaker for me. Gonna mess around with Switch and TV settings before then.
Yeah, I can already see my son slamming his in to this thing, and causing issues. Hopefully a better 3rd party one is made available by Christmas, so I can get one and avoid the damage I know that will happen sooner or later.
Does the usb ethernet adapter work? I can't really tell if mines working or not. Pretty sure it stayed in wireless mode. I have mine plugged into the usb 3 slotthis is all the stuff i ended up getting for my switch yesterday.
Is your Skinomi wet or dry install?this is all the stuff i ended up getting for my switch yesterday.
Thanks for this tip. I don't really think I'll be scratching it but better safe than sorry.
i will let you know tonight if it works, we are giving the switch to my son for his birthday party later today at john's incredible.
wet install
awesome haulI'm glad they included a dark theme, it's very nice.

You guys are making me want to buy Bomberman and Snipperclips D: Must resist for now. I want to pick up Bomberman used.
Here was my haul. The pro controller is unnecessary for now but feels great overall. Glad I got a bunch of this stuff with the Visa Checkout promo.
Sweet, they make the best full body skinning products around. Your one of the few people I've ever found that uses the "wet" install products, as most are to scared to use liquid around their electronic devices, but it gives the best finished product/appearance in my honest opinion.
it's like the red neon color is bleeding into the screen!I can't believe this is still happening. Pic from NeoGAF
Considering how simple the dock is, I could imagine someone designing a new one to use the same internals on Thingiverse (for self 3d printing) or kickstarter. I'm surprised Nintendo didn't rubberize or include felt on the internals of the dock.
Well, that SnipperClips pack-in is nice when the NA bundle launches.
so all NA bundle launches, have a code for the full game of snipperclips? does this include NA bundles no matter what color? i heard about this but i havent seen anybody confirm this yet.
thanks
thanks
Yeah, this is all I think my son will need, or me for that matter, as I don't see using the TV features either, and a simple charging dock is all I need. They can keep that $60 dock.
im actually printing this right now. i will post a pic later tonight after my son's birthday party.
I probably should have checked before suggesting myself... been too busy playing Zelda, but they have a few charging dock options http://www.thingiverse.com/search/page:1?sort=relevant&q=nintendo+switch&type=things
Well, it's also supposed to be a limited release. Think Konami took advantage of that and in a few months I think it may be near impossible to find at retail.
This was the case for me, my zelda isn't shipped out till next week.
got a feeling a 3rd party video dock would work too.... if it supplies the proper power to it. My Microsoft Display Dock (for my phone) seems to detect the switch, but the switch doesn't kick into video out. My dock only pushes 5V at 3Amps (i think, the 3Amp part is correct) I don't want to risk plugging in the Switch's power adapter into my dock though to test my theory out. I should probably test the USB ports on my dock while plugged in though. maybe if I remember....
It's possible. It just depends on what kind of circuitry was added to the official Nintendo dock, and whether or not there is a lock-out chip in that thing. It's not the first time that Nintendo has pulled a stunt like that, so it's entirely possible that there is some manner of lock-out chip. The main thing about the video output on the Switch dock is that the Switch itself knows when it's plugged in, and switches the video signal over. This has something to do with the internals of the dock itself, as you can plug the power cable into the Switch itself for charging while playing, and it does not attempt to output the video.
Honestly, my biggest problem with a lot of Switch launch window titles is the price for a lot of them that have either already been out for awhile or are not worth the price tag.
Agree 1000000%
No argument here... Did get it for $40 (prime discount) so it was easier for me to justify
Yup! Hate how physical and digital is always the same price at launch. Digital titles should be $5-10 less (that does NOT mean raise MSRP, but just charge less for digital versions)
Wasn't it a Wii U launch title?
But, but, but........... Buying it regardless.... need a fighter for a 12 flight in september....
This I disagree with....Most systems have crap launch lineups. At least with a game like Zelda, that can easily take up a majority of time, not to mention it seems that more titles will be coming out slowly over the next few weeks, They could have released every game they had planned for this month alone yesterday, but by staggering the release, it gives people time to enjoy their games and if they want more, then awesome. Me, I try to never buy more than 2 games at any given time, as I would probably never get to them both. I really want to play Fast RMX and Setsuna (really wanted the US vita version, but they cancelled it before release, so a portable Setsuna on the switch works for me) but waiting to kill more Bokoblins in Zelda 1st....
