Anyone know why a Nintendo switch would say 100% while on the charger but when you take it off it goes to 3% within 10 minutes then dies? Never had any issues with it before and it’s the last switch i bought out of 3 and is only a little over a year old.

@Elvenprincess83 Sounds like the battery is having issues. anything you could have done to it to make it do such a thing?

Nintendo are like woman, You love them for whats on the inside, not the outside…you know what I mean! Luzlane best girl!

If you are responding to me in forums or a comment I would much appreciate it if you quoted or tagged me in your responses so I can see it and respond. Otherwise I usually can’t tell that you’ve replied. Thanks!

@Elvenprincess83 I thought I recalled seeing a mention of an % battery display error in Nintendo support. But, my fist guess is, the battery sounds bad.

@Snatcher nope nothing different it’s not used too often but my fiancée plays it on occasion like maybe once or twice a week and it’s been fine until the other day

Yeah, that's the page. Thanks, @SmashBall35 😉😉

Also, interesting to see Nintendo quantify the battery life degradation

Nintendo%20support%20page%20linked%20in%20post%20above wrote:

Important: As with most lithium-ion batteries, the system battery life will gradually decrease over time. After about 800 charge cycles, the system battery life will decrease to about 80% compared to the battery on a new system. This is normal and does not represent an issue with the system or with the battery.

You should contact NIN support considering the time it has failed within year time I get them a contact they most likely will want to fix this issue.
