Nintendo Switch cartridges aren’t meant to be put into your mouth but that hasn’t stopped people from doing so. Those that have tasted the cartridges report an extremely bitter taste that’s hard to wash away. Nintendo of America has explained to Kotaku that it’s intentional as they’ve used a bittering agent to stop young children from putting the cartridges they find lying around on the coffee table into their mouths.
“To avoid the possibility of accidental ingestion, keep the game card away from young children. A bittering agent (Denatonium Benzoate) has also been applied to the game card. This bittering agent is non-toxic.”
Thanks to RidleySlayer for the tip!

xD they actually responded to this. And with a good awnser as well.
I’m tasting it idgafos
you know what’s the first thing everyone does after reading this :D
When I get my switch on monday,I’m trying this out.
The chemical is used in Animal Repellent and Shampoo, so no wonder why it tastes so bad
Breaking news, plastic doesn’t taste well.
False plastic taste very good its like chicken wings dipped in chocolate with a pizza slapped on top and then all thats tossed into a cherry pie
I thought this was hilarious when I first heard it. Obviously I have to try it now.
I wonder if it will also cause pets to spit it back out?
I kind of want to make my cat taste it but that’s messed up lol
Dogs eat shit, so… Cats won’t though
If it does it would’ve saved my copy of Pokémon Diamond all those years ago!!!
Lol
Now I’ve heard everything

Careful, Nintendo may hear people complain and shift their development focus to better tasting cartridges, and the expense of quality games, decent quantity, and storage space.
Now I want to taste it…
Well, that was a stupid idea. now my fish soup tastes like a Nintendo Switch cartridge.
Why did you even think of tasting it?
Wanted to know.
But I do wonder what goes in through the mind of someone who opens the case and licks the cartridge.
We might have never found out about this without them.
But now I’m curious if the agent can be eventually licked off, I’m not going to try that though.
please no
the people who do taste it need common sense.
2037: “WTS Non-licked Switch cardtridges.”
This is probably for the best. I just can’t stop eating my 3DS cartridges!
It’s not meant to be put in your mouth
it is you shallow it then you turn into whoever the main character is of the game card you ate true story
Is that true?
No, but the cartridge is very nutritional. It’s worth the $60 with the amount of vitamins you get.
I’m cool with that.
Only a company like Nintendo could think of something like this
Very silly, but it’s actually very smart preventing kids putting the cartridge in their months.
They thought of everything !
It makes f*cking sense when a child or a pet tries to put them in their mouths, it makes no f*cking sense when grown men and women (their genders dictated by chromosomes which is the laws of science and yes I’m Christian and yes the bible tells you to pursue science, not false aka pseudo-science like aliens, evolution, and lie detectors, Catholicism tells you not to pursue science at all) puts them in their mouths unless the have a mental illness.
You’re paranthesized statement served no purpose.
Your paranthesized statement served no purpose.
While evolving from monkeys does seem pretty far fetched, evolution DOES happen. It’s why certain animals are able to survive today when they were food for bigger animals in the past as they evolved to have a defense mechanism. As for aliens, who says God couldn’t have gotten bored with humanity & had a few side projects half way across the universe? It’s not like the bible outright says aliens don’t exist. In fact, aliens is a concept that’s only been a thing for the last hundred years. Now lie detector tests… THOSE are definitely pseudo-science & there is no doubt about that. Of course, many still don’t realize they are bullshit. In fact, it’s why they have a psychiatrist on hand when they give lie detector tests or the psychiatrist IS the one giving it as they are the real lie detectors if they are very good at reading people.
But that’s enough about that. xD
Seriously? I was so looking forward to plunking down 60 bucks to have a delicious Zelda cartridge. Nintendo really is doomed.
Why.people.do.that?
Would you people prefer a tutti-frutti-flavored cartridge???!?
That’s one way to increase sales.
I licked my copy of BoTW, can confirm.
They should make one of the games actually taste good as a joke.
We humans are so freaking stupid!!!!
Now I gotta lick a switch game cartridge,dead ass! Lol
awaits porn sites with switch carts being dropped into the mouth COREEEE THATS WHAT I LIKE SOME KINKY SWITCH SCAT
I miss the good ol days when plastic tasted like food.
Im glad is not toxic I got scared for a moment 😣
Probably due to everyone eating former cartridges. NES were the most difficult due to the edges and size. /S
Honestly why start now instead of the DS or even Gameboy? Think of the children!
While the people doing this are stupid, least it revealed a nice little tidbit about the cartridges. Then again, I gotta wonder if this is just bullshit that Nintendo themselves started so they could have an excuse to tell us about the chemical on it that keeps little ones from putting it in their mouths.
