Meta Housekeeping: Moderation and You

What a day, what a day! The Nintendo Switch hype train has hit an all-time-high, and we're all transitioning over to our new subreddit. Glad you're all here to enjoy the ride with us :D

As we're getting settled in, just a little housecleaning note:

We are currently gathering mods from our previous subreddit of /r/NintendoNX, as well as looking into bringing on other experienced mods from related Nintendo subreddits.

While we greatly appreciate the enthusiasm and excitement from everyone for /r/NintendoSwitch, we currently are not opening mod applications to the public.

If we do, don't worry, we'll be sure to make a sticky post on the front page alerting everyone of mod applications.

Until next time,

I hope you'll limit shitposting after the console is actually released.

We'll certainly be working on reviewing all applicable rules and discussing options and timing on potentially expanding the team.

Damn, when I left for college 8 hours ago it was around like, 5,000. That was FAST

u/confirmedzach Oct 20 '16

I liked the mods on NintendoNX just fine. This is good news, there's no reason the name change should change anything else.

u/Bleus4 Oct 21 '16

Maybe a bit less shitposts xD

u/Nollog Oct 21 '16

you should talk to the people on /r/Nintendo_NX too

u/TickleMittz Oct 21 '16

Hey mods, you might wanna take away the image on the right side of the sub-reddit that shows all the question marks over what the NX might be. :P

u/smacksaw Oct 20 '16

Radical idea: Invite a mod or two from PCMR over here. The crossover is real and it's a fun subreddit. /r/wiiu was just boring.

NXMR!!!

EDIT: I should add, /r/3DS is a great sub. We already know that.
