@littlesmegger @GameSpot The problem with that is the tegra is already under clocked due to heat so they would have to use a better performing chip like tegra Xavier, but Nintendo are cheap so will continue to sell the current hardware for a high price.

@DatChaosGuy You're still walking on a thin line here, if at any point there is a crash on your switch etc.. those logs will be sent to nintendo and if they see any custom firmware on your console no matter what its for Nintendo could potentially ban you off nintendo online permanently

@EOSStatus I have a linking issue. Nintendo switch fortnite said I have failed to link the accounts. I linked them but I can't delete and try with the "correct" account because epic doesnt let me switch linked accounts. Epic games I really need your help, I can't use my account on switch

Everyone probably already knows this, but it's such a simple fix that wouldn't even make wolf better overall that should definitely happen. If pika can get multihit fixes so can wolf. Please send a bug report to nintendo's support chat (link in comment) or retweet/like.

I will say fighting games have been hurting from this problem for a long long time. Capcom patched out a patch someone made on PC that made Street Fighter V playable online. Nintendo gets pissed at Slippi wants events to stop using it on a game that is really old.

@SnugglyWeeb [laughs in launch Switch with pro controller, OLED TV, and $300 in pocket] Seriously though, just fix the damn controllers, Nintendo...Another reason I don't use my joycons, beside the fact that my meat hooks are too big and they hurt to hold.

@Beancatte No wait, the Earthbound theory was the music issues. The reality was that Nintendo didn't think anybody in the west cared about it.

@Reality47476204 @wallhe3145 @GameSpot The only people ive seen take issue with it are people who wanted an actual hardware upgrade. My point is more that nintendo fanboys will buy anything they sell, hence why if you want one it would be wise to preorder.

If anything the damn community is making me wanna drop the game more than the small updates. Actually, it is just the community, I don't have a issue with the updates. I'm just done hearing and seeing the same crap, you're not gonna get what you want out of Nintendo.

God, Pokemon Unite taking literally every problem that live services ever had since they became a thing and just shoving them into one game is goddamned disgusting. Screw Tencent, screw Nintendo, like seriously Nintendo's foray into microtransactions are some gross EA ****.

@nintendolife Glad I just got through the dungeon and didn’t have this problem. Honestly can’t blame Nintendo as it’s a small detail that they probably never noticed it during developement. Still, hope they are able to patch it out since others are noticing it.

Now listen, I know we have a lot to be cross at Nintendo for but the joycon repair service is so easy??? I thought it would be a ballache but it’s not. Props to @NintendoUK for that one 🤍

@PokePunk27 @DuvalMagic And I don't see the problem there. It's not different from Sony or Xbox or Nintendo. Can't release games on those platforms without paying the fee. And those are huge platforms as well.

Let's see how long these last. Maybe one day Nintendo will fix the issues with these controllers.

Call me crazy but I would've thought Nintendo's new upgrade to their system would fix one of the glaring issues being the joycon drift but hey at least now I can see my character spinning uncontrollably on the new OLED screen.

Nintendo’s new Switch slogan should be: "Do you catch my drift?" You know, since they have NO plans on fixing the problem. 😕
