Some Nintendo Switch Owners Report Warped Consoles

If it’s not one thing, it’s another for early adopters of the Nintendo Switch, apparently. Reported on Reddit, user _NSR reports that after playing with the console exclusively in the dock for an extended amount of time, it appears their Switch has a slight curve at the back, almost as if the plastic is bending to wrap slightly around the front of the device. Several other users in the thread have since confirmed that the same thing is happening to them, with the prevailing theory being that it may be due to the fact that the Switch’s screen shuts off in docked mode, leaving the front of the device cooler than the plastic backing, which is against the metal part of the dock’s rear while running.

A Demon’s Souls Remaster May Happen, But From Software Won’t Be Involved

While previous reports have suggested that a remaster or remake of Demon’s Souls would be unlikely to happen, the game’s director has now come out to clear the air.
