The Nintendo Switch finally launched last Friday, and many of you are probably enjoying The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, 1-2-Switch and the other launch games right now.

Some of you might also have noticed the much discussed problems with the left Joy-Con suddenly becoming desynchronised. Nintendo has now given us a few tips as to how we can avoid this.

Besides the classic stuff like downloading the recent system update, charging the controllers, and avoiding other wireless devices, they're also saying that we shouldn't place the console near fuse boxes, behind the TV, in metal or behind metal objects, and near aquariums. Are we the only ones curious as to how they troubleshooted that last part?
