One Twitter user has come out with a bit of a wild Nintendo repair service story.
sam_nama lost a wedding ring after his daughter placed it inside a Wii U. He ended up sending it in to Nintendo, and thankfully, it was recovered. The Big N even went as far as to clean the ring. Of course, the Wii U was repaired as well.
sam_nama says he didn’t anticipate that his daughter would actually go ahead and shove the ring in there. She seemed to think of it like a piggy bank. Fortunately, it all turned out well in the end.

System: Switch
Release date: December 3, 2020
Developer: Bandai Namco
Publisher: Bandai Namco
If you’ve ever longed to control a pair of sentient taiko drums and fight alongside Marie Antoinette to prevent the space-time continuum from collapsing on itself, then the Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythmic Adventure games were custom-made for you. Once exclusive to the 3DS in Japan, Bandai Namco has now brought its role playing taiko adventures to the west for the first time. Taiko rhythm gameplay and RPG mechanics might seem like an odd blend at first blush, so a major question naturally arises: are these roleplaying spinoffs an offbeat adventure, or do they stick to a solid rhythm? Let’s strike up a drum line and find out.
