@NikolaiDenmark @jokastrength A Nintendo component breaking out of nowhere for no reason and Nintendo almost certainly being aware of a problem but doing nothing to fix it other than selling replacements? Why I never (That sucks I hope you get the replacement soon)

@DestroshadeTTV @rkane91804564 @Amermln And how would they go about that, they would literally need access to Sony, Microsoft, Valve, and Nintendo servers to verify user account login data, I don't see them agreeing to that, way to much liability

@Anania00 So you'll have to send it to Nintendo and have them fix it/send you a new one which idk how long the process is for that so if you'd want to get new ones I have a great rec for knock off ones on Amazon. Literally half the price of regular joycons. I have them and they're awesome

@TheRichFromCali Horrific. But that child does not look white…AND this is Florida. Are we sure it was a Nintendo issue? I’ll wait to see. AND I agree it’s abhorrent behaviour to a teacher.

@TrentAUS_ If it is just for the Nintendo Switch, the EVGA XR1 goes on special from time to time between $79-$110. It is what I used to get away from the driver issues of the elgato line.

@AlfredInWS But now that we're on the topic of handheld Sonic games, it would be really cool if Nintendo Switch Online got Game Gear games to compliment the service's Sega Genesis library, since there's no other way to legally emulate those games now that the 3DS E-Shop is going down under.

@Vendetta_FGC I know it’s very unlikely but I really hope this makes Nintendo comes out of retirement and drop at least a fix for this new Steve tech but it would be really cool if they just did a whole balance patch

@fullgrownpupper @thattugglife @BlabberingC The real issue is the use of controllers requiring aim assist or whatever Nadia might be using to compete with mouse and keyboards, the only answer would be to lobby Nintendo RIGHT NOW to separate matchmaking by console and PC. Any suggestion less makes everyone seem abusive.

@Light_S21 i feel like if the entire smash community let steve abuse his tech for a while, and then everyone all together make a major deal about banning all of steve due to this singular tech, maybe nintendo will patch it because it's a single glitch and not a steve nerf

*Ban the whole character till Nintendo fixes this glitch* Except we're in the patchless era of Ult at this point. There's no telling what will happen to Steve from this point on other than to wait & see what happens.

I don't think there really is a good way to really crack down on PMLG, so I think our best choice of action is just make as much noise as we can about it to nintendo. They are the only ones that can fix this tech and it's our only real option to ban the tech without making-

@NintendoUK in the past 3 months I've sent my switch in for repair 3 times. Was told by support team that if issue was not fixed this time, they would look at replacing. Since mentioning this to support team, they've not responded.

@JacketsNest101 @AdeptRogue7 @NintendoAmerica Really? I thought Mikhail was actually good; appropriately smug and boastful. I didn’t have any major issue with Patroka either.

Things difficult on TOs or other players. We aren't in the same situation we were in with bayo, nintendo is still looking to fix games on the switch and will patch out things from smash, but WE are the ones that have to give them notice about it.

@ChuckCallesto There are many special needs kids and they don’t attack their teachers . Perhaps this teacher “ provoked “ the attack by taking away his Nintendo not knowing he had uncontrollable anger issues . Teachers should not fear for their lives when they go to work

@ErikR68 @VrRetweeter If you look a little deeper, you'll see console manufacturers (microsoft and sony for sure, but unsure about nintendo) cause this. INCREDIBLY unjustified licensing costs for platform support and the desire to keep the respective ecosystems locked down. PCVR isn't the problem.

@NintendoUK @NintendoUK is the eshop down please? We have been trying to buy a game since Friday but it keeps coming with an error code. We have got in touch with the bank and PayPal and they have said the money hasn’t even been requested to leave the account. We tried rebooting internet.

can we actually just ban Steve so nintendo can be forced to make one last patch to the game. like this game has so many problems and banning Steve will be a wakeup call to nintendo just how it happened to Bayo, please

@Carbunculussal Hell even Spyro Reignited had a 400,000 page EULA they expected you to read before you could even play it I swear every time I try to play a modern AAA game I pray to God A'mighty for another game crash that Nintendo cant save us from

@GamewithDave Unfortunately Minecraft on Nintendo switch is buggy as hell wouldn't let me login to my Microsoft account. So we did a slight pivot and purchased Portal Knights. Quite fun to play 3 player coop.

@RocJustRoc @JoeTalkShow @ChuckCallesto Still a 16 gr old kid..what the FU does that have to do with anything? Somebody should have put a boot in his teeth, so his first stop was an oral surgeon. You beat a teacher over a Nintendo, a 2nd chance comes after SOME HARD TIME. If you're defending the kid YOU'RE THE PROBLEM!

I've finally left 90DNS! I only used it out of great fear of Switch CFW's risks, but I've been having connection issues lately with it. Atmosphère's "hosts" folder to redirect from Nintendo & its "Exosphere"'s feature to blank my EmuMMC's critical info should be perfect, anyway.
