Melted SD Card in Nintendo Switch

svgMar 16, 2017NewsMax

The Nintendo Switch is en route to success. Major Sales milestones were announced yesterday, with more than 1.5 Million consoles sold already. However, the launch of the console was not entirely smooth, with some concerns about the joy-con connectivity issue, frame rate drops in Zelda: breath of the Wild due to a Wifi bugs and some more minor issues.

Today we are hearing news about the Nintendo Switch melting SD cards in the SD card slot on the back of the hybrid console. Twitter user ” Sosowski ” claims his Nintendo Switch has melted a San Disk SD card, and left his finger burnt. The melted memory card can be seen in a picture he posted below.

However the SD card manufacture San Disk has had problems with melted SD cards in the past – as seen in the official support response from San Disk.

We are sorry to hear about the issue that you have faced while using the card with your laptop . We would request you to please not to use this card on any device SanDisk® stands behind its commitment to quality and warranty on its products. We recommend that you contact SanDisk® support at 1-866-SANDISK or submit a support request at http://www.sandisk.com/support. The manufacturer warranty on brand new products extends beyond the Amazon.com 30 day return period. We will assist you towards the best resolution even a possible warranty replacement if required.

As it happened before with different devices, this would mean the issue may not be related to the Nintendo Switch. So beware of which SD card you purchase and end up putting into your console.
