Nintendo is actually addressing issues people are having with the Joy-Con, and no it isn't that they somehow taste terrible.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
Based on those suggestions, Nintendo wants you to live in a cave to play the Switch.
It's a Joy-"Con". It's a Con.
Sad thing is one of the problems is too many devices are connecting wirelessly, thus causing the air space to be oversaturated with signals. So Nintendo's solution is to not include an Ethernet port on the dock to relieve this problem some. Maybe people will eventually catch on to the benefits of setting up a wired network.
Addressing the issue? More like passing the buck.
This shows no acceptance of a possible issue with the device or code that runs it. Based of this information Nintendo dont seem to be taking any responsibility.
My switch is still in the box, moving house this weekend so I don't know yet if I will have the same issue. I really hope this is not going to be a serious problem. Based of how many stories I have seen about this, it could well be.
