Could Nintendo already be preparing a re-design of the Nintendo Switch dock?
Update: Nintendo claims that the dock is simply "out of stock". "As previously announced, the Nintendo Switch dock set (which includes the dock, a HDMI cable, and an AC adapter) will be released Spring 2017," a representative told Gizmodo [http://gizmodo.com/nintendo-denies-pulling-the-switchs-dock-from-its-onlin-1793053187].
Original Story: If you wanted to pick yourself up a second dock for your Nintendo Switch, so you could say, use it with a second TV in your house without having to move the thing around, you're out of luck, as the company has redditor [https://store.nintendo.com/ng3/us/po/browse/productDetailColorSizePicker.jsp?productId=prod840594], who notes that the dock is not listed as "sold out" or "unavalaible" but has been flat-out de-listed from the website.
What does this mean? Well, it could be a lot of things. It could simply be that Nintendo wasn't expecting to sell so many additional docks and has run out of stock. However, a lot of people are noticing issues with the docks, such as screen damage, and teardowns [http://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/2825-nintendo-switch-dock-joycon-teardown] of the dock have revealed it is a laughably simple, cheap build. So, some people in the gaming community think that Nintendo may already be prepping a re-design for the dock, which will ship with future Switches.
If you're already bought a Switch, you may still be in luck, however. With the Wii, Nintendo provided free replacements [http://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-intros-free-wii-remote-jackets/1100-6180213/] for the protective jackets and wrist straps to early adopters who missed out on the new, better designed versions.
We've reached out to Nintendo for comment on the story.
