@jessiedorie_20 at one point, we all got in trouble for this and weren’t allowed to take our Nintendo’s on the buses anymore... these were our worst problems back in the day 🙃

@alistair1o1 @ArchonOf The smash community really has a lot of problems to take care of. And they wonder why nintendo doesn't care for them?

@visceradi I know it still kinda sucks but you can get nintendo to fix your controller drift for free through their site (I did it myself a few months back)

The fact that I had X in everything a couple months ago but have a hard time maintaining X now might serve as evidence of a rise in lagging cheaters. #splatoon #splatoon2 @NintendoAmerica

@Eisenfaust_ @Pokemon @PostMalone I know what an emulator is everyone, Jesus Christ. How does that solve the problem of Nintendo holding their back catalog tighter than cables on a suspension bridge? It doesn't!!

I know both Nintendo and the Secret Service would never allow it but can you imagine Fireside Mario Kart streams ...I kinda want to draw this

@DeszczuGG @RoseFromTheAshs I have been informed that NES Tetris is not even available the subscription based Nintendo Switch NES emulation service, so I am paying 20 USD every year and I don't even get the privilege of playing NES Tetris.

@iwakeupDP Fair enough even though I did buy the game on the Nintendo switch but oh boy I'm going to find how broken these characters will be

@FortniteGame is there a known issue with the Nintendo Switch and the microphone. Our Turtle Beach recon 70’s quit working after the recent update. No issue with the headset just with fortnite and all settings have been checked.

For 1 thing these hacks have gotten to be around Nintendo accounts every month and they have not fixed this issue

@Boogie2988 I agree although Nintendo has their own problems. Nintendo puts no effort into graphics or gameplay innovation and milks their franchises as much as humanly possible.

broke: using a flashlight during a power outage. woke: using your nintendo DS on max brightness during a power outage.

@OldSuperContext (2)content, but SML has never claimed to be Nintendo or affiliated with them sooo what's the issue? That these characters are being used for risqué jokes? Then I think A LOT of channels are now in danger, and any that want to start a channel with Nintendo IPs are now discouraged.

@KKtrinaSaidSo Why does the ps5, a much newer console, cause the same drifting problems the 2017 Nintendo switch caused?

(@JBeff30) reported
Joy con drift is an issue and you can’t change my mind. The proof is in the tone of videos from many people and hundreds of thousands of reports on it. And Nintendo makes it worse by being in denial about it while they settle lawsuits. They need to fix this!

Now trust me. Nintendo has some ridiculously ****** business practices that might in fact be some of the cause of these issues people have with them.

@OnuaDark so many of the problems with more recent nintendo games can be chalked up to laziness. It's honestly so discouraging to see

@TRHLofficial As someone who has the original Nintendo still, blowing works somewhat, but the real issue is the build-up of grime and tarnish on the copper pins. what ultimately works long term is properly cleaning the pins. Isopropyl Alcohol with a q tip works a lot better.
