The Switch has been with us for over a year now, and during that time it has been lavished with praise for its versatility, portability and superb software - and rightly so.
However, no piece of gaming hardware is totally perfect and Switch has also endured its fair share of less positive press; one early issue was that some Switch units suffered from scratched screens due the console's dock, while other users reported warped consoles due the high levels of heat generated by the system. Fast forward to the present, and we've got another potential hardware headache on our hands.
Upon booting up one of our launch day Switch consoles recently, we discovered several cracks along the top edge of the device - mainly located around the vent and the area around the headphone socket.
We take pride in the fact that we look after our consoles and had taken special care with this particular unit from day one, so we decided to ask on Twitter if anyone else had experienced the same problem, just to make sure we weren't at fault ourselves - after all, portable consoles are at risk from bumps and knocks, right? Perhaps we'd just knocked the machine one day and hadn't noticed? This rant video goes into topics like this covered on several other news sites like Nintendo Life, IGN, and EndGadget.
