It's not dead pixel... it's dust guys... It's already there before he turned on the console.

It flickers at one point, though it doesn't look like dust. It's more like a stuck pixel rather than completely dead.

Dead pixels are technically dead, they don't show up on a black screen.

 

[routerbad]

What's that?

IDK but there's moon.nintendo.com in the err message that displays afterward. Pokemon reference?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I hope Nintendo is successful with this console because it looks fucking amazing. The most beautiful console ever made.

You mean a handheld right

 

[Refreshment.01]

Test Bluetooth Headphone.

 

[Deen]

Where at?

Dead Pixels right here:

3:04

3:44

You can see it in the whole video.

 

[JCH!]

can confirm it is dust. No dead pixels.

Relax people.

 

[diablos991]

Yeah I noticed that: Man if I have a dead pixel and shit loads of backlight bleed it's being sent straight back to Amazon

Now that is some bad luck to offset the good luck.

can confirm it is dust. No dead pixels. (dust was on top of screen, not below.)

Never mind. Crisis averted.

 

[Enduin]

Pretty sure that's just dust. The original video did not have a dead/stuck pixel, but it did have a lot of large dust particles on the screen. Expect that's was the same here.

No confirmation yet on whether multiple Switches can be linked to one account, but now we know that unlike the 3DS or Wii U, no contact with customer service is required to unlink a system.

http://www.gamezone.com/news/nintendo-switch-accounts-can-be-linked-to-multiple-systems-3450657

Limitations on Linking
The link between a user and a Nintendo Account can be removed at any time. After the link has been removed, the user can link to a different Nintendo Account.
A single Nintendo Account can be linked to multiple NX systems. When multiple NX systems link to the same Nintendo Account, the user nickname and icon is synchronized across systems. However, the application’s save data is not automatically synchronized across systems. On the other hand, it is not possible to either link multiple users to the same Nintendo Account on the same NX system, or to link one user to multiple Nintendo Accounts.

I'll wait on a switch until nintendo gets the dead pixel situation sorted out

 

[Dark Cloud]

dust under the screen?

can confirm it is dust. No dead pixels.

See. You guys should relax and don't overreact lol

 

[Kouriozan]

So there's no MyNintendo slip? Didn't see it in the video.

Probably in the day one update, as the eShop is also not available.

 

[mstevens]

It's the same color whether the screen is white or black. It's dust.

 

[forknknife]

Lol guys , that'd be a freaking huge pixel!

 

[plidex]

Stop overreacting guys.

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT

what about reading the thread?

4:45: Parental Controls menu.

Use Your Smart Device:
- Restrict Features
- Set Play Time
- Activity Notifications

Use this Console:
- Restrict Features

So no activity log through the on-console parental controls, as some of us had hoped.

That's not an activity log.

The stuff in the parental controls video, if active on the console, would allow you to lock yourself out of the console irretrievably as you wouldn't be able to access the console to change the settings. There's a reason that stuff is done on a second device.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

can confirm it is dust. No dead pixels. (dust was on top of screen, not below.)

The guy who literally owns it says it's dust. Calm down.

 

[reelbigtink]

The guy who actually has the system and made the video just said it was dust. Calm down, some of y'all.

 

[icespide]

Stop overreacting guys.

I'm joking

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Dead Pixel???
Cave Story Switch cancelled.

 

[TheFuzz]

OMGPIXELGATE!!!!!!

 

[Dark Cloud]

Stop overreacting guys.

Seriously everyday people keep overreacting and don't wait. Just calm dow.

 

[SephCast]

Stop spreading FAKE NEWS, ITS NOT A DEAD PIXEL!!!! FAKE NEWS FAKE NEWS

 

[UncleSporky]

Hey hiphoptherobot, are you open to other questions about the Switch itself?

I'm curious if you can tell if there is a fan inside the dock, or anything obvious about it that might make it more substantial than was previously rumored.

 

[Skittzo0413]

#TeamDust

EDIT: Yeah Mr. hiphoptherobot you should do an AMA on Reddit or something, people are going to have a lot of questions. Or just gather a list of questions here to find the answers to. You're a hot commodity right now.

 

[diablos991]

Stop spreading FAKE NEWS, ITS NOT A DEAD PIXEL!!!! FAKE NEWS FAKE NEWS

CNN reported it already?

 

[MADGAME]

So you're telling me I can expect my brand new Switch to have a fleck of dust I need to wipe off the screen right out the fucking box? Preorder cancelled.

 

[forknknife]

The switch has so few games that it comes already covered in dust.

 

[rager]

I noticed some lag in the intro, I hope that is from the video.

 

[Fitts]

Lol guys , that'd be a freaking huge pixel!

Well, it is 720p...

 

[Jimmyfenix]

haha

 

[PHIN12]

I'll wait on a switch until nintendo gets the dust situation sorted out

 

[diablos991]

It's booting up... lol

 

[phanphare]

LOL

that got me

 

[QuixoticNeutral]

I see that—my point was that a number of people here, myself included, were wondering if an activity logging feature was buried deeper in the parental controls menu on the console, and it appears the answer is no.

 

[Skittzo0413]

Haha this wins dustgate

 

[rager]

It's booting up... lol

And? Still could be smoother

 

[Dark Cloud]

[Fireblend]

OK this one made the whole dust thing worth it

 

[routerbad]

It's usually a separate app on the home menu. I'm hoping that this comes either as a downloadable or as part of the patch. If not... eh.

 

[Blues1990]

WHAT SCORCERY IS THIS?!

 

[Oregano]

Nintendo confirmed to not have the best pixels(tm).

 

[diablos991]

And? Still could be smoother

Should they extend the boot up time so they can dedicate more processing power to this animation?

 

[Milly Osworth]

Dust on screen? Luigis Mansio 3 confirmed.

 

[Deen]

Well, i think it's weird that the "dust" changes it's color.
White background = black dust, black background = white dust?

I'm on #TeamDeadPixel.

If there was an activity log I'd expect it to be in the user profile, or maybe as an option in that notifications screen, but I don't see why it would be in the parental controls.
