manufacter is purposely limiting functionality of the device for profit, and in some cases bricking the device because they deem someone isn’t using it how they want.

I call it a paperweight for that reason

apparently this is one of the few, if not only 3rd party dock that works with nintendo paperweight

I haven’t used a cup/mug in about 6 months. I buy a coffee for $2, then refill that paper cup for a week u until it leaks from the seams. then I buy another one.

I also just eat out of the pan/pots now… I’m a savage and stopped caring about things. sigh . sucks
