thanks for the help guys.

I got it in the end from yodobashi at 28400 with 5% visa discount. just to share that u can still do that at yodobashi. Not BIC tho.

cheers.

That means tax free with another 5% discount showing any Visa card huh?

Suppose the Pokémon game in japan is no English huh haha.

"Didn't work" means what? Can you describe the actual problem? Presumably you connected the HDMI cable directly from Switch dock to TV (not passing through any HDMI switch or splitter)? And you selected the correct HDMI input port on the TV. Then what... no picture on the TV (but the "HDMI2" or whatever port number label is shown on tv)? tv turns itself off? Switch turns itself off? got picture but distorted?

Are you using CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) on the TV (also called BraviaSync and various other names)? Basically lets you control the source device (like Switch, PS4) and TV with one remote, so when you turn on the console, it automatically turns on the TV, etc. On the Switch, it's the "tv power state" setting. Maybe try turning that off on the Switch and on the TV's menu.

The tv screen say “NO signal. Check the external input or select another input using the INPUT button” I’m using a Sony Bravia tv. The dock n switch works for my Friend who lent me his set. I have try switching hdmi cables too . I even try it on my living room Panasonic plasma tv...all can’t connect to the TV. The dock can charge the switch.

I off the Bravia sync n switch setting n it still didn’t work

Bro, try connect other device (e.g. laptop) to your tv and see whether the display works? If not, it means sth wrong with your hdmi port or tv le. Also make sure that your hdmi port does not have (ARC) label on it which means it's for audio devices only. I believe your TV have more than 1 hdmi port? If all ports doesn't work, highly likely tv problem le.
