Nintendo Nintendo Megathread, v.6: Switch 2 Edition

[The Clark]

So, I have been playing Odyssey on the Switch 2 (docked), and I noticed that the system felt pretty warm. I thought, okay, the Switch 2 probably runs hotter than the original system. But now I have noticed that it always feels warm in the dock, even when it's just been sitting there in sleep mode. Is this normal?

Hmm, I just picked mine up after sitting in the dock for days and it was cool to the touch.

Could something be running in the back? Was it charging?

I just checked again, and it seems fine. Maybe I had a download/update going on, or I left a game running. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks for the reply.

I've read that they can run warm, not an issue. If the temperature seems too high you can call them, they are usually really good about customer service. I've had every Nintendo system and never had to have anything repaired except for the Wii, and it was done free of charge and then sent back.
