Sliding the Switch in and out of the dock will inevitably scratch the screen

Surprised the interior edge of the switch isn't made of a soft material to prevent this.
Lol, sure you did.
It really isn't. It requires some legitimate carelessness over and over again to achieve the scratches in the picture in the OP.
What?
Show us the receipts.

It is kind of hard to slide it directly in, no innuendo intended.

You don't, you don't believe he bought a Switch? I impulse bought a PSVR when they came out...

Any time I have to apply one I always have to buy extra because I always mess them up.
Why does someone need to prove their purchase of a new console to you exactly?

I saw the Switch console in stores today. I live in the Netherlands...
Seems to be sold out online. But stores seem to have a few.

Those are deep scratches, unlikely to be caused by plastic. This thread may be a case of fake news.

There are tight space tolerances on the sides of the Switch (as in, it doesn't have a lot of wiggle-room from side to side), I assume? Then how are those scratches being made by docking it? If it was caused by that rubber bumper, there should be grooved vertical scratches, in a narrow range, not scratches going at different angles and some close to the edge of the screen and others farther away. There's a curved scratch a half-inch away!
Guess you're new here. Don't be an ass. They had two in store in Alkmaar. There was one other dude there at opening and he only wanted a carry case.
No, show us that it's scraping against the dock

This is a good point too. Multiple scratches at different angles and positions. Doesn't even make sense
No proof? Ok, then.
I did, nothing changed.
I'll be doing the same.
Damn, you going places junior.
No, that's not what is happening.
I think this report of the scratching is nonsense. But you're embarrassing yourself. No one owes you proof. You're being a jerk.
I mean in the age of smartphones and Imgur it's not an absurd request.
have any NeoGAFers seen this on their Switch?
Junior shaming? Nice, man. You've gone places.
it doesn't use Gorilla glass? the Vita and the 3DS didn't also
Is it too much to ask for proof is someone claims that the scratching and is happening to them? I don't believe it is.

can't imagine owning a nintendo console without a screen protector. these things aren't iphones.
Also, he never said his screen had scratches. He said he noticed it hitting up against the plastic. Not that it left scratches yet.
So the basis of your accusation doesn't even make sense.
That isn't what you did.
You responded first with "lol, sure you did."
Don't try to pretend like you were asking him a level-headed question.
chillllllll dude
Nope.

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
This is actually a hw problem how?
Good points.
Mine isn't scratching. There are marks caused by the bumpers but they can easily be removed.
I don't believe any.
The whole thing seems silly to me. To get THOSE kind of scratches from taking your Switch in and out of the dock a few times in one week? I'm having trouble buying that.
Can someone else show some pictures of their switch as its docking or even a video if possible to reproduce the scenario?
Who're you talking to? Your post is pointless.
