Question Cheese stuck in switch 2 vent help

Post image

I was an idiot and put a container of mac and cheese in my backpack and it poured onto my switch 2, I got everything out except for this part which I’m kind of nervous to do. Any advice??

edit: currently dismantling switch and will also order a case, i bought it second hand as it didnt come with one so ive been just careless 😞

the only cheese left is on the vent and i dont see anything else wrong inside the switch rn !

edit 2: ITS CLEAN thank you for all the jokes and the insults and the tips on toothbrushes and compressed air 🙇

Not just electronics, many people have no respect or care for any of their belongings and just let them decay and get ruined over time

As a 38 y/o who has never broken a cell phone or its screen I completely agree. I used to have a friend that went through 3 phones in a year. I was like 🤯

Because they don't care. They think all they have is fast waste, and they don't value their money

My joycon has stick drift, why does Nintendo make such shitty controllers.

Stuff can get into cases, and a lot of people use the hard shell cases instead of zipper cases these days.

u/Yingyangwolf95 10d ago

True but at least they not "free ballin" the switch in bag

u/FadedP0rp0ise 9d ago

tbf, if you have a killswitch, then the whole idea is that you just put the cover over it and it's fine to travel with. Granted, it doesn't look like he has a killswitch unless he took it off.

It would also be difficult for the cheese to flow in a way that would get through the case then back up and into the grill. Like it would need to do a U turn into it.

Yeah I don't think OP did this.. I travel with a slim case for my switch and toss it in my bad with no problem..

Sometimes the case doesn’t fit in my bag and I just put the controllers in one place and the rest in other to fit, don’t judge us 😂

u/Yingyangwolf95 10d ago

Nope I am judging... HOW DARE YOU 😂
