37°C? Well, that sounds hot... but I've no idea without a comparison to other consoles and stuff.

I hope it does remain cool enough during gameplay, I wouldn't feel exactly super comfortable holding something too hot (then again I don't think I'll be playing it in handheld mode too often).

If I recall, if my pc components ever got to like 180 F (80 C) they would shut down on me. But 37C is not hot at all. That is below many computers idle temp, and even around laptop idle temps.

Most laptops when being used jump up to liek 50C. Obviously gaming rigs are higher.

I'd be very concerned about a rig with an idle temperature of 37°C.
