  There’s always a percentage of devices that will show defects, especially the launch wave. QA can never get 100% of units passed.

  Does anyone remember the PS5 issues with the disc drive, rest mode, coil whine etc during launch?

  Now it this turns into a pattern / widespread issue I’m ready to jump on the bandwagon, but this is not out of the ordinary.

    Exactly. We’re hearing about the edge cases so far, which there will ALWAYS be some for any product.

    Not defending Nintendo here. I’d love to be playing the new Mario Kart, but not at those prices.

      The new Mario kart is the same as the old Mario kart. Just play 8 if you want to play Mario kart lol.

        For better or for worse, it’s actually quite different. Many people seem to actually prefer Mario Kart 8 lol

        What a silly statement. There are tons of new features, characters, and courses in World.

        That’s like telling me to not read sequels to books.

        Just because it shares mechanics and characters does not make it the same game.

        It’s different to the point I sometimes go back to 8 for the more traditional format. That isn’t something that has ever been the case for me across other mario kart games.

  That’s why you never pre-order. Never. Still never.

  Even with the vast majority of people having no issues, with millions sold, that’s still a good number of people just got a bad one. The article only reports two instances.

  It’s not really too unusual for a launch as big as this to have some bad units slip through QA. If it’s a handful of people, I’d even say that’s pretty impressive. This starts to effect a large enough percentage and then you’ve got something worth getting upset about.

    Yeah this is like making out a monitor having a dead pixel is some huge scandal and discredit to that company.
