Re: "No Widespread Technical Problems" With Switch Joy-Cons, Claims Nintendo

@EternalDragonX Or, more accurately, "Some people ARE having problems because of the location of the switch and environment of their gaming room."

My living room is ~7m x 7m (so not a small room) and the switch is behind the tv.

Many reviews of the Switch mention that they had issues while trying to obstruct the signal, not during gameplay (with some exceptions).

I hope for a better design in next Joy Con revision, but i don't think this is a widespread problem.

@EternalDragonX I agree with you: better design = better signal.
Putting the antenna in that spot probably is not good design and, if you have this issue, soldering a wire as antenna extension fixes it.
But, if only a minority of Switch owners has this issue, there are "No Widespread Technical Problems".
Nintendo addressed the problem and released an article on support website. If you continue to experience this issue, you can contact them.
Problems are common on new product releases; but on the Internet they always look more widespread then they actually are.
