Wow I’m glad I know how to save my Splatoon data! I spent hundreds of hours on it!


*OH WAIT*

Step 1: Back up your save data

Splatoon 2 players: R.I.P.

How to prepare for a trade in or sale


Don’t go to Gamestop.

Nice of Nintendo to literally tell its customers how to safely sell their product.

[OBOII]

Step one: show me the 3 digits at the back of your mom's bank card

[DrNotnert]

Never expected to see a video like this on Nintendo's channel

[metrodite]

Don't let this distract you from the fact that smash releases in 18 days

This is cool but could we get a messaging system and get rid of friend codes please

[KnightSlasher]

Why would you give away something so legendary

[snailgirl]

But what if you play Splatoon 2???? You start over??!?!??

[gametrgaming]

0:47 What about make them all saveable?

[AverageStoob]

Save data backups would be cool if they *worked for every game and didnt cost money and also werent deleted after the pay period*

[vuppet]

Honestly, the switch customer support is really good! Got my pro controller repaired from faulty sticks, and it was replaced with a perfect controller! Truly Nintendo has a seal of quality <3

[yosoyysoyyo]

This makes me anxious about a switch XL or switch ultra or whatever they would call it, when I JUST got mine last year...





Edit: last august! Forgot the thing only JUST came out last year to begin with, which is...arguably worse.

[anchuto]

"Accidentaly traded in"? You mean stolen.

I hope Nintendo does a survey about their Online Service.
So that it can be better.
