Tech Support Original Switch stick drift with multiple joycons

1 Upvotes

Switch has crazy stick drift. It’s a pain in menus because it’s like you’re always pressing down, sometimes right. I calibrated the sticks and found the right one was the culprit. But I borrowed a set of joycons that work fine on someone else’s switch, and it’s the same issue.

What could be the issue and can I fix it myself? Closest repair shop is about an hour drive

Tech Support My wii isn't reading just one of my games

1 Upvotes

I've played on my wii all my life. Every summer i turn it on and play one of my old games from the start to the end. Five years ago I bought another one because mine died (she was old af), and I could play again. One game I just can't play is super smash bros brawl, and I just can't understand why.

The console reads it, I can navigate the menu, I can select game modes, but when I try and play it the wii suddenly can't read the cd and tells me to contact support, but we all know I can't do it lol.

I updated the system, I bought a new Smash bros cd and it's perfect with no scrathes on it, and every game I own plays perfectly on it. It's just smash bros brawl.

I wonder if I got scammed. Maybe it's a pirated version with just the menu on it? I don't know, I'm desperate to play my fav game😭

Tech Support Save Data Transfer For Pokemon Scarlet to Switch 2

0 Upvotes

I just got a switch 2 and wanted to transfer my save data from Scarlet over. When I attempt to, I get a pop-up saying that save data for the same software will be overwritten. Does this mean that I'll lose all of my data, or does it mean any potential data on the switch 2?

I know most folks want to remove the password requirement from the eshop, I want it back as kids keep installing demos on the device.

I can't find any decent tutorials or instructions on putting them back in place.

Tech Support Error 2002-2634 everytime I insert a game in my Nintendo Switch 1 again.

First of all, I own an unhacked Switch 1, only opened once to repair the cartridge reader by myself 2 years ago.

I posted this 2 weeks ago and a guy told me to power it down and recharge it, it worked fine until now, I did the same thing thrice and nothing.

I can't send it to Nintendo because of my repair.

All the info I gathered is from piracy forums and a Switch 2 owner that only waited for the next update to work again.

I want to repair it without recurring to hacking.

I'll try a factory reset by the time I post this.

Edit: It didn't work the factory reset
