Re: Soapbox: Nintendo's Excuses Regarding Cloud Saves Aren't Good Enough

THX1138

After the vitriol regarding the Boy with Cancer who wanted to play a game, I find it mad that you people demand something from Nintendo.

I mean honestly a dying child wants a sneak peak and you all lose your minds. Then you all don't get the save system you want and act like the most entitled people in the world.

So scared of the loss of save games that represent a few hours of your life. Same crowd who literally angry mobbed a dying child. The lot of you should be shot.

Re: Nintendo UK Is Asking For As Much As £180 To Repair Cracked Switch Consoles

THX1138

Under consumer laws in the UK, consumers are entitled to a free of charge repair or replacement, discount or refund by the seller, of defective goods or goods which do not conform with the contract of sale. For goods purchased in England or Wales, these rights expire six years from delivery of the goods and for goods purchased in Scotland, these rights expire five years from delivery of the goods.

If a repair or replacement is not possible, would impose a disproportionate burden on the seller, or could not be performed in a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to the consumer, the consumer may choose either to have the price reduced or to withdraw from the contract by returning the product in exchange for a full refund. A consumer is also entitled to withdraw from the contract by returning the product in exchange for a full refund if the consumer rejects the goods within 30 days or if the product does not conform with the contract after one repair or replacement.. The primary responsibility to provide a remedy is on the seller. If the goods were purchased from a third party reseller of products, the primary responsibility to provide a remedy will lie with the reseller. For goods purchased in England or Wales, these rights expire six years from delivery of the goods. For goods purchased in Scotland, these rights expire five years from delivery of the goods. A claim under UK consumer law may be made subject to the defect being present at the time of purchase.

Any defect or non-conformity of goods with the contract which becomes apparent within 6 months of delivery are presumed to have existed at the time of delivery. After the expiry of this 6 month period, the burden to prove that the defect or non-conformity of goods with the contract existed on delivery generally shifts to the consumer.

(Multiple recorded cases of the same defect is considered proof)

Re: Primary School Teacher Uses Nintendo Labo As A Creative Classroom Tool

Yeah, too expensive for education.

Keep schools paying massive licenses to Microsoft so they can use software that's also available free.
In fact, let Microsoft and other US tech companies hide their taxes, and then we will soon be able to keep money out of public education forever.

So yeah 1 Nintendo Switch between 5-6 classes of 35 children per day. What a waste of money.

Much better the money spent on 100s of MS office packages so that children can learn =SUM(). Couldn't have done that in libre-office.

Anyway, why should we teach children about new technologies? The Brexiteers have a future of Fruit Picking, Fishing and Coal Mining set out for our youth.

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Banning Online Features For Suspected Pirated Game Carts

THX1138

I imagine by the time I'll be desperately buying the last second hand copy of a game in existence I'll have a Switch Emulator and a ROM. And a dusty and hacked 15 year old Switch. And the online services will probably have just been shut down, so it won't check to ban itself. But DLC and updates will be gone too. So, moot anyway. Wish it was still the 90s. Everything was final. Buy a cart. Care for the cart. Cart will still play in 30 years.

Warning. https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/8foa1f/the_maddest_of_props_to_nintendo_and_a_bite_me_to/#bottom-comments

Ubisoft are blaming Nintendo for a game bricking bug.
If you get the Call Girl D-Mobile glitch the game becomes unplayable.
You get stuck in a loading loop.
Worse. You cannot start a new game. If you uninstall and reinstall, you cannot start a new game. Game is uncompletable or unplayable.

According to ubi support it's not their problem. Nintendo say it's ubisoft. DO NOT BUY!!!!

I wasted 50 quid on physical, 20 quid on eshop for dlc and hundreds of gold points.

Perhaps if there is an update buy, but for now, DO NOT BUY
