Nintendo follows PlayStation and Xbox in ending direct sharing to X

Nintendo is ending support for posting screenshots and videos directly to X from the Nintendo Switch.


From June 10, the above function will be scrapped, as well as the ability to send friend requests to social media users via the Friend Suggestions feature.


“As of June 10, 2024, it will no longer be possible to post screenshots and videos to X (formerly Twitter) from the Nintendo Switch’s Album, or send friend requests to social media users via the Friend Suggestions feature,” a post on the Nintendo X page read.

“We sincerely thank players for using this feature over the years.” a blog post added.


The move has disappointed customers, with one blaming X owner Elon Musk.

“@elonmusk look what you did to one of the most beloved companies in the world. Good job buddy! (sic)” they wrote.

Nintendo is one of many companies that have ended their support, as PlayStation and Xbox have already done so.
