I’m wondering if I should go for a replacement or what.

I can’t get the Switch 2 to wake even if I hold the controllers 1cm away and hit the home screen. I know it’s not supposed to work from the old pro controllers any more, but not even from the included joycons? And since it doesn’t recognize my TV’s HDMI-CEC either, the only way to wake this damn thing while it’s docked is to walk over and turn it on. And to make matters worse, the range of the controllers is a lot worse and they keep disconnecting. I didn’t have these problems with the Switch 1.

Is it just me?

    I don’t have the wake issue, but the Joycons that came with my Switch 2 are forever disconnecting. I also can’t get the console to connect to ethernet and it takes forever to connect to wifi, if it connects at all. Strangely, the Switch 1 joycons and pro controller I paired with the Switch 2 work perfectly. If there isn’t some firmware bug that they can patch out, then I’m pretty sure people like us with these disconnect issues are probably gonna have to send it in for repair.
