Nintendo warns Switch 2 owners over making this simple mistake

Before the release on June 5th, Nintendo advises Switch 2 users to be mindful of an error concerning the handheld system’s screen.

In preparation for the grand debut of Nintendo’s Switch 2, they have made available a health and safety guide for download. Although this might seem rather mundane, there’s an intriguing aspect that could spare you from numerous complications at launch. Regardless of whether you typically bypass user manuals in favor of jumping right in, be mindful of the unique characteristics of the Switch 2’s screen.

Nintendo advises all players to keep the protective film covering their device intact. This film is there to stop shards from flying off if the screen gets damaged. So, please don’t remove it.

Nintendo issues Switch 2 warning

As a tech enthusiast, I must admit that sometimes, even the most obvious things can slip our minds. For instance, removing the protective film from new devices might seem instinctive, but it’s surprisingly easy to overlook this step and end up damaging the screen unintentionally.

It’s probably because the Switch 2 features a glass screen, much like the Switch OLED model which was equipped with an “anti-shatter adhesive film” to prevent glass fragments from spreading in case of a drop.

Removing the protective film could potentially expose you and others to the risk of getting cut by shards of glass should the console break, as it might happen accidentally. Particularly for households with small children, it’s crucial to consider their playful and sometimes careless nature around the console.

Before diving into unboxing your new Switch 2 and removing all the protective layers, remember to keep the screen protector untouched! After all, it’s there to ensure your screen stays pristine. Enjoy your gaming experience without worrying about scratches or damage!
