Retarded Miiverse Admins.

16 January 2013 - 07:25 AM

I'm a little dissapointed with the Nintendo admins, on miiverse I've seen a lot of things that violate the code of conduct or whatever. Amine chicks with huge boobs, Princess Peach in a bikini bending over, violent images, etc.
But I draw Mr Herbert holding a MLP DVD case and it gets deleted, like hours maybe even a day after I post it.
Anyone else pissed off with these moronic nintendo admins?

Is This a Hardware Defect?

02 January 2013 - 09:38 PM

Hi guys, this is my first post here.
I'm not sure if what I have here would be classified as a 'defect' or just me being picky, so with that in mind I'm going to discribe to you my issue.
My D-pad seems... faulty? Let's say I'm playing NSMBU, I like the classic feel so I use the D-pad instead of the analog stick, anyway, I'll be running in the right direction with my thumb fully pressed down. Everything works fine. But when I ease off the pressure just a bit Mario stands still even though my thumb is still technically holding down the right arrow, but goes back to normal when I apply more pressure. I have also noticed this issue in the other directions as well, even at the Wii U home screen. Though it seems the right arrow is giving me the most trouble, followed by the down arrow, and then the left and up arrows are about the same. To me it sounds like I'm being picky, but I did just buy a $350 system and I would hate for it to be defective so that's why I'm here asking.
Also I added about 2-4 drops of rubbing alcohol into the D-pad's right arrow (This has fixed a button on my phone in the past), but had no luck here. Speaking of which, is that hazardous to the gamepad or any internal components? I applied the alcohol and waited about 70 minutes before I powered the console back on......
So yeah just concerned about gamepad....
Any input about the D-pad would be MUCH appreciated.
Thanks.
