    @NintendoAmerica it seems like the ACNH servers are down, but I can’t even access my DLC (the game is saying I didn’t purchase it). Is this related or is it a bigger problem?

    @NintendoAmerica Why are the servers down

  • kh4dave63 David Larsen (@kh4dave63) reported

    @CozmikJamn Nintendo's servers are apparently down. I've seen lots of people talking about it. It's not another DDOS attack, they're just down for some reason. Maintenance, I guess.

  • NaomiWhitely Naomi Whitely (@NaomiWhitely) reported

    @NintendoUK I’ve ordered and it’s not turned up. Your customer service keep saying it will be dispatched but there’s no information. I need to know where it is please!!! Can you DM?

  • LibraScopeYT LibraSnowman and the Reindeer || StopAsianHate (@LibraScopeYT) reported

    I know that you can swap the potentiometers in normal Xbox/PS/Nintendo controllers. But it isn't always the easiest thing to do, whereas the sticks on these Scuf controllers are designed to be modular. The problem is that I think it's only the stick and outer ring you can change.
