When a third-party add-on does not work well with a first-party device, it is a third-party problem, not a first-party problem.

    Anonymous, 05 Mar 2017What about human skin will that destroy the paint like on the iphone?!Well, they tried to recall every people's Skins (TM), but there is no equivalent alternative, so people are reluctant to send them away. The PigSkin (TM) is just not good enough, and BabySkin (TM) is so last generation. And YeOldSkin... It's a real joke. Especially the latest "112Years OldSkin(TM)".

            Doesn't it means that by time and daily use the coating will be damaged soon? If that's the case, i'd prefer put on a skin and not removing it anyway. The skin makers should just tell their customers about the damage caused by removing the skin is their own responsibility.

                If you think this is just a "skin problem", think again... just wait for what the "test of time" will do to it. (hint: it will be harsher than any skin)

                  Anonymous, 05 Mar 2017They bought 10 release consoles as well to test if GSM posted the whole articleEven if Dbrand do tell them its not like Nintendo must recall their devices just because Dbrand skin doesn't work on them. Its customer liability to put or not to put the skin. Its more of the skin manufacturer responsibility to tell customer that it doesnt work well with Nintendo Switch.

There's nothing wrong with t... moreThey probably did inform Nintendo by now. I'm not a business expert in any way, but I think it is rude not to tell Nintendo of their testing outcome.

                                Since Dbrand was given a testing unit, I believe it is fair to assume that negotiations of sort went thru. It just did not work out in the end.

                                I say hats off to Dbrand for this move.

There's nothing wrong with the Nintendo Switch. The paint will only peel off if they put an adhesive - which many people wouldn't do. Other than that, it functions properly.
