    Hardware Modify Switch Pro Controller to work with iOS?

    The Switch Pro Controller is not officially compatible with iOS 13 and neither Apple nor Nintendo seem interested in making their products compatible. If you go to Bluetooth settings on your iOS device and attempt to sync your Pro Controller to it, nothing will show up. However, if you go to...

    Hardware How would you have felt if the the Nintendo Switch was called the Nintendo Swap?

    What if Nintendo used a word that means the exact same thing and is 2 letters shorter as the name for the NX, where you can SWAP between the TV and handheld? Would the NX have been received differently? Would it have been less appealing? Would it mean Nintendo couldn’t use the satisfying click...

    Gaming Nintendo should seriously consider adding Spotify

    Many of us love to listen to music as we’re playing games. Nintendo is trying to find new ways for people to engage with their systems and play longer. Spotify is trying to make you buy their subscription that lets you download songs to listen to offline. Unfortunately for them, most devices...

    Hardware Can the Switch output the display over USB-C?

    Yes, I know what you’re gonna say. No. That’s what I believed this entire time. Until I came across this video. And since then I’ve been trying to figure out how in the freaking world this is possible. The person is able to connect his Switch to the monitor using only a single USB-C cable from...

    Gaming Has Nintendo began region-locking games on Switch too?!

    Evidence: https://streamable.com/35tee A couple of weeks ago after downloading the app niconico and the game Assassin's Creed Odyssey Cloud Version from the Japanese eShop and playing both of them, I found that I get an error message saying that I cannot open the software anymore. I thought it...

    Nintendo Portugal leaks Realm Royale for Nintendo Switch

    The Nintendo Portugal YouTube channel had uploaded the reveal trailer for the Nintendo Switch version of Realm Royale, but swiftly took it down. I was one of the lucky few who got to watch it before it was removed, but it had not occurred to me to record it which is why I am now strangling...

    Hardware Would a Switch Pro receive actual games?

    There’s no doubt a more powerful Switch Pro will come out sometime this year. Leaks say that the Switch Pro will use either the Tegra X2 or the Xavier chipset. It’s up to Nintendo what they want to clock it at, but it seems apparent it would be at roughly the same power as a base Xbox One or...

    Gaming How does the prepurchase system work? Can it be bypassed?

    On the last three Nintendo consoles Nintendo included a way to prepurchase and download games before their release date so as soon as the clock strikes 12 midnight you can start playing immediately. Does anybody know exactly how Nintendo prevents you from opening the game? I know it connects to...

    Hacking Question System Exploit Via Amiibo?

    Apologies if I am out of the loop or if this is a stupid pointless question. Theoretically speaking, could you rewrite the data on an amiibo or other NFC chip so when it is read by the 3DS, Wii U or Switch it would exploit a vulnerability in the system and could then run userland homebrew? I...

    Gaming Why was Call of Duty on the Wii U but not the Switch?

    Quick question, if Activision brought not one but two CoD games, one at launch and one much later on (when literally everyone abandoned the system), to the Wii U, which was a disappointment in terms of hardware, and a failure in terms of third party support, then why would they skip out on the...

    Hey guys, I’m having some problems with my left Joy Con which I bought in a pair separate from the system, new from the store last July, they’ve been working fine since then, no issues at all. I picked up my Switch from the dock just now and tried to navigate when I kept getting some stutter...

    Hardware My Switch can't do more than 50mbps, is that supposed to happen?

    Hello GBATemp, several months ago I had my WiFi upgraded to 50mbps download/upload on both a 2.4 and 5GHz bands, the former would usually do 20mbps and the latter do the full 50, WiFi speeds were identical for all my devices, including my Switch. Recently I had it upgraded again to 100mbps, and...

    Gaming [Opinion] The Switch isn’t powerful enough for a web browser

    TL;DR: The Switch can’t handle the eShop while suspended, how would a browser work out? The Nintendo Switch is an amazing piece of tech, no doubt about it. It is incredible the kind of graphics it can display on the go. My friends were amazed at the quality when I had brought my Switch once...

    Hardware How different would the Switch be if it had 8 gigs of RAM?

    The Switch is an indisputable success, although that doesn’t exactly mean it has reached its full potential. Nintendo was planning to only put in 2 GB of RAM until Capcom and other publishers begged them to bump it up to 4, and that seemed to have saved the system, without that addition it may...

    Gaming The Switch Online App is a mess (but now you have to pay for it)

    When Nintendo first released the Switch Online app, it was horrible. Only one game was supported, and voice chat was only in Friend Matches (IIRC correct me if I'm wrong). Voice chat would end as soon as you left the app or your phone screen turned off. There were no friend features either. And...

    Gaming Will NSO cut off all online for non-subscribers?

    Nintendo Switch Online is launching in a couple days, and I've been wondering what exactly you can do without a subscription. I was playing NBA yesterday and realized that their MyCareer mode, which involves interaction with other players in "The Neighborhood", may become completely unusable...

    Gaming Why do most players in Rocket League have "PSYNET" instead of their user pic?

    In Rocket League most users have PSYNET (Psyonix Network) written inside the area where their Switch user pic should be. Been wondering since forever and wanted to see if someone knows the reason behind it. Thanks in advance.

    Hardware So how will the Switch output audio in Sleep Mode in Smash?

    A feature announced for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is the ability to play music from the soundtrack in Sleep Mode, via a pair of headphones. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to hardware, so I was wondering if someone else could clear it up. If the system is in Sleep Mode, how exactly...

    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
