Why the Nintendo Switch 2's magnets are a potential failure point

The Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Cons use magnets to connect to the console, but has the company learned any lessons from its previous devices?

"Blogger worries about things he doesn't really understand for page views".

The console will not get anywhere close to hot enough to demagnitize the joy-con magnets; Curie temperatures for consumer magnets are above even the hottest part of operational CPUs/GPUs. And aqueous solutions could be problematic for the electronics, but not the magnets.

The switch hate brigade has been in full force for months.

You think Nintendo would have stress tested these machines as much as possible they know the temps inside and out

Nintendo knows best, right? Why don't you tell us about the joycon drift next and how the new joycons are still basically unchanged?

Profchaos1h ago

@badz wouldn't know never had a joycon drift but I've had 2 duelsense controllers drift and one spring snap in the R2 trigger. All of which got replaced under standard consumer warranty no cost to me straight swap in store.

I've had the a button fail in a joycon that's about it the store swapped it on the spot.

I'm an Aussie hardware defects are covered under standard consumer warranty here including drift

for a magnet to lose its power so to say, it takes 80 degrees celcius, thats 176 Fahrenheit for the americans.

those are ridiculous temperatures and i think the switch 2 losing its controller grip will be the last problem we'd have haha

Jailbreak will happen before 176 degrees Fahrenheit, lol. Unless you set it on fire.

Oh look, another user who suspiciously only submits articles from this website, and of course it's clickbait nonsense.

This site needs to do more to fix engagement from flamebaiters those people are noticeably killing genuine engagement with the site through old mate with his alts who doesn't get the message to trolling submission.

After 20 years coming here it's going to the dogs
