Re: Poll: Is Your Nintendo Switch Cracking Under The Pressure?

Mine has no issues around the vent area (yet). But upon closer inspection I notice I have a small crack forming near the power button. It leads from the button to the screw. As of yet nothing has fallen off.

I don't know how long that little crack has been there (I only checked because of this article, and it's really small and hard to notice. So far.), but I should add that I have NOT played docked in a while, as the tv in my bedroom has broken down some time ago. So it's been exclusively handheld for almost two months now, which is pre-heatwave. I also keep the switch in it's case or the dock if I'm not using it, it has NEVER been dropped, NOTHING has been dropped on it (I am so paranoid about scratching the glass that I put it in the dock very, very slowly and carefully)

I had some trouble with LA Noire a while back, where the HD rumble would be way too strong and loud (only for really intense rumble. Which in LA Noire was ALL the time). I could hear the joycon rattling against the rails very, very loudly, even contacted Nintendo before finding out the issue was LA Noire. I can't help but wonder if, in my case, the HD rumble in handheld mode has something to do with it.
