I've lost track of the number of times my immersion in a movie or TV show has been broken to the point of distraction by hearing a stock sound effect that was used in a specific Nintendo 64 game.

Things #Nintendo cant seem to understand. First Person Shooters ( Call Of Duty or for example ) n the importance on online multiplayer communities. Even thou #activisionblizzard is n trouble. the switch multiplayer potential possibly wont ever be reached. Ok it wont but still.

It's unlike Nintendo to sit on issues with their hardware, so I suspect they have actually been working on fixing the problem with their hardware partners, and are trying not to throw them under the bus. As is, Switch Lites use the same sticks, but don't seem to have issues. 22/

@KBizzl311 Always felt like Sony/PS fumbled that bag. Nintendo and Sega STILL have Mario and Sonic. Crash was IT - ended up not really needing him, but he has all the workings of a posterboy

I'm never fixing another ps4 after this. I've disassembled xboxes and Nintendo consoles with no problem. Playstations? I have issues every single time.

- THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THEM IS TO COMPLETELY ******* REPLACE THEM AND GETTING NEW ONES FROM NINTENDO IS WAS CHEAPER THAN SPENDING MONEY ON ONES FROM ALLEGRO

Nintendo isn't quite as bad as I made them out to be lately. There's few problems that can be super bad (mostly Nintendo licensed controllers and paid online). Still jaded, but even got back on Smash online with a better gamepad. It's N64 and online is still bad, but tolerable.

@spla_storm I am very sorry to inform you that I am unable to play Splatoon 2 for the Nintendo Switch with you. I have personal issues to take care of, and therefore do not have time to deal with minor things like „playing quad“. I wish you the best of luck finding a suitable partner.

@IronCaptain98 @BeatemupsWood I know that, but I think Nintendo could still fix it out of warranty, but he'll have to pay the full cost of the repairs, right?

@BeatemupsWood Ok as you say it shows the charge for 2 seconds. Can I make a suggestion? (I'm sorry Nintendo) Can you try to boot into RCM? That at least will rule out any software issue. I think that would be possible even with a little charge.

I also suspect it's not really something Nintendo themselves can fix. They don't make the joysticks, and they're likely sourced from the same company(s) that makes the joysticks for Xbox and Playstation controllers too. 20/

@2KSupport The Nintendo switch version crashes on the second ascension board over and over. Is there a fix on the way?

@BeatemupsWood Maybe send it in to Nintendo? Perhaps they could fix it.

And it's not like weird, and severe hardware issues are a problem unique to Nintendo. Almost every generation of Xbox has had problems with the disc drive, not to mention the red ring of death. Sony has fared slightly better, but they're a huge hardware company. 23/

@NintendoUK do I have to fork out £70 because of my joy con drifting?? An issue you’re being sued over?

The Nintendo Motto "If it ain't broke don't fix it". That's why we have the same +30 year gameplay we been loving since NES days.

Hey everyone! One of my mate's sons Nintendo switch is flashing green when docked and isn't turning on... anyone have this issue and fix it ? And if you had sent it back to Nintendo to fix how can I direct them to do that? Cheers

Nintendo Switch: "ignoring joycon drift for 4+ years" Yeah, this one sucks. On one hand Nintendo has been quite good at replacing joycons that have the issue when people complain about it, even when way outside the warranty. 18/

@Prof_Temporal @TheNCSmaster See and thats my issue with it, i feel like being a switch game shouldnf be enough to justify making everything on the platform 60 dollars, especially since nintendo prices never go down except for occasional 40 dollar sales at most after years.

(@Juice8767) reported
@Bosco_The_Boss @IGN It seems like it causes issues Nintendo may have been afraid of explaining before the console became a hit. Enabling audio cuts support for more controllers, causes longer wake up times, doesn’t support voice chat and doesn’t work with local/multiple system multiplayer 😵💫

I think the main problem with most recent first party nintendo switch games is that they are on the switch.

@garuwastaken Guilty Gear Strive have the solution for that problem in which you can save a replay of a match and then export it to the training mode and recreate the exact same situation without having to learn your opponent character. But you know, that's a 100 years before Nintendo do that.
