There is no design issue, blah blah blah blah.......

A foam that repels interference has addressed the connection issues.

That's actually true, but it is still a defect:

"A manufacturing variation has resulted in wireless interference with a small number of the left Joy-Con. Moving forward this will not be an issue, as the manufacturing variation has been addressed and corrected at the factory level."

That makes it a manufacturing defect, which is much easier to address than a design one (like the original Xbox 360's propensity to melt its solder.) Notice the euphemistic use of the words "variation" and "small". Haha! It's a defect, guys. Just admit it already.

Let's be honest This slight issue with the joycon is nothing compared to the xb360 RRod issue now that was a serious design fuck up.

Cobra9513018d ago (Edited 3018d ago )

Right. The 360 had a design defect. It could not be corrected with manufacturing tweaks. It had to be redesigned, and that took a few iterations to eliminate the destructive overheating completely. The joycon has a manufacturing defect (which can be corrected with better manufacturing quality control).

The issue is only "slight" if it doesn't affect you.

I might get one in a couple years but I’m in no hurry. Nothing at launch I want to play.

If there are no shortages then why can't we just easily order a Switch 2 online, from Best Buy, Target, Newegg, Amazon etc. No shortages means we can get it by any means, online or in store.

Maybe there’s shortages in Japan ? But they’re pretty much available lol

Ten Years Later - Still Going Strong: Dying Light: Retouched Update Releasing June 26

Hey Survivors! Tymon here, your favorite Dying Light Franchise Director.

It's been an absolutely wild month here at Techland! We're in the thick of what I'm calling the "Summer of Dying Light," delivering updates and big news across all three Dying Light games. Just a few weeks ago, we dropped the first gameplay for Dying Light: The Beast, revealed its release date, and kicked off pre-orders (if you haven't seen it, check out my last dev blog). I'm incredibly proud of what we're building with The Beast - it’s the culmination of more than 10 years of experience in open-world survival horror!

But here's the thing: we never forget where we came from. That's why, this week, we're not just looking forward - we're rolling out significant updates for both the original Dying Light and Dying Light 2: Stay Human. We promised to support our games for a long time, and we're committed to continuing that support, right through and beyond the launch of Dying Light: The Beast.
