  Been having a lot of wifi issues with the Switch 2 as of recent. Can't explain why, hopefully Nintendo puts in a system update that fixes it.

  @OutOfPocketChum @LaprasKnowsBest @ArtistNcs It really comes down to picking your poison. Regardless, Nintendo fans will most likely get it. The best thing anyone can do is just to know what you're buying, what to expect for issues, and so on.

  @DestinLegarie wow the amount of people who have lost the understanding of turning on the a nintendo hardware putting the game in and play---99.99% of people are now frankly scary "internet plugged in", "What's the problem?" It's you.(not you Destin, them)

  @ConnorOhOne @makio_jroses I don't understand how or why Nintendo would impose a deadline, especially considering they are known for delaying their own games if they don't meet their standards. If you can't understand the difference between The Pokémon Company and Nintendo then you are part of the problem.

  @tash__i @jukins5 @pushsquare The switch 2 is selling faster then the PS5 and switch 1 were selling at launch 💀 No, Nintendo themselves confirmed they shipped enough units so they wouldn't have issues with stocks.

  @JuiceMan_V 450$ for the switch system was never the problem, the 80$ games and charging a few to unlock the better performance for old games was the real issue people had. Also now its turns out game chat is locked behind a pay wall too, Nintendo is pulling some real greedy moves.

  @Alfredo_Toons @makio_jroses I understand the difference, GameFreak codes while Nintendo publishes, not even accounting for Creatures Inc’s third of the ownership. The problem is that on average there’s a new set of pokemon mainline games every 3 years, not accounting everything else like sidegames & (1/2)

  If anything any hopes of me competing with online randoms are thrown out the window if this is the case. And yes...this is a skill issue 100%. Just wish Nintendo didn't decide to make their cpu's level up just in time for me to get back into the game.

  @SW1TCHBLXDE ok so you would need an update and internet to update so you would not be able to with a fresh system or a system you had to restore and a fresh cart. this would be an issue if/when nintendo offlines the servers/shop. both are pretty common scenarios

  The new Joy-Con controllers for the Nintendo Switch 2 use magnetic attachments for a more secure fit, addressing previous flimsy rail issues. However, strong magnets may cause quick snapping, potentially pinching fingers. #Switch2 #NintendoSwitch2

  @Marthware The issue lies with Nintendo and studio managers prioritizing cutting corners, low risks, no attention to the little details, focusing on DEI at the expense of the final result. Developers share the blame too, some create toxic workplaces or lack the competence needed

  @LIGHTANGEL_EX @Nintendo i really don’t see the issue. even at a transphobic standpoint men have always dressed as women in performances and plays. This is no different in my eyes. So most peoples points crumble really easily

  @Pirat_Nation Nintendo has actual QC and their consoles doesn’t come broken out of the box.

  @retro_cheater @ArtistNcs That's a good decision too. I should've stated *as of now* but then again, Nintendo never did fix the drift for the original Switch either so we'll have to play the waiting game to see what they do. We can only hope for the best.

  The GameCube controller for Nintendo Switch should work with Mario Kart World on the Switch 2, but with limitations. It supports basic racing, as seen with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, using buttons like A for acceleration and R for drifting. However, it lacks clickable analog sticks and extra shoulder buttons, which may restrict access to advanced features like off-roading or menu navigation. Nintendo confirms compatibility beyond GameCube Classics, but warns of potential issues. The Switch 2 supports the original Switch's GameCube adapter. For a full experience, consider a Pro Controller or Joy-Cons.
