I bought today from toys r us, a nintendo switch. I went home and plugged it in the wall and it worked fine and it charged. I set up the dock and connected it with the hdmi and ac adaptor. When I came back from like 3-4 hours later, I tried to dock it and the dock light started to flicker and it didnt want to charge the switch. I disconnected the switch and the ac adaptor and tried to connect it directly, but it didnt charge. After I disconnected everything and waited like 20 minutes, I connected everything again but the problem was still there. So I got stressed and started to slowly wiggle the switch in the dock to check if i connected it correctly and started taking out and in for like 6 seconds. After that, the light stayed lit and it charged the switch. A few minutes passed and i tried to charge it in handheld mode without the dock, and it worked fine. But im worried about the cable or my switch charging port breaking in the future.

Then just get it swapped, don't need to put much thought into it.

    Me and wifey was deciding on our next vacation, so I hung up a map on the wall, and give her a dart and said, wherever you hit, we will go. She threw the dart and it missed the map completely and fell into a trash can below on floor. So I said "ok Florida it is."
