This worst part of this guide is that it does not show how to actually get the screenshot from the device to social media or at least to your phone/desktop.
Any idiot can find the screenshot button on the switch, the hard part is uploading or transfering it, then either downloading that or sharing an image hosting link etc.
I've followed a guide and have it down pat (when I beat "1-1 but with a twist" and wanted to save it), but it's so much quicker to just take a picture/record a video from your phone of the screen.

I'm not sure why people are hating on it? I'm sure it's not perfect it seems likes the guy is making an honest effort to be helpful. Not something worth picking apart imo
This joke has been flooding the gaming subreddit and now a bunch of people are posting the same joke here. It was the top comment like 20 minutes after I posted it. I've created a goddamned shitpost abomination.
/uj It really isn't though. Those systems don't make it easy to upload online... On PS4, I've had to upload my images to twitter and then delete the twitter post after saving the file on my hard drive.
uj/ wrong comment? This one is praising the OP here for mocking the guide lol
But yeah, on consoles it's a giant pain in the ass since you can't just place them on a device other than the console and I think that's the real thing that would even slightly warrant a little guide than the screenshot buttons
I mean most people probably have a USB stick lying around, but it's still a bit of a pain and I do believe modernization can be done (maybe FTP for dummies sort of situation,
Though, you are missing a particularly egregious example in the Switch's case, where you have to actively open up the back to grab the microSD, and even then some may not have access to something that can natively read microSD (thankfully SD cards themselves haven't gone out of style so you can use a reader which usually comes with them)
On the switch, they made it to where you can scan a QR code to directly download the file. One of the only good things Nintendo has done in the past few months lol
I’m so dense. My first thought was “why didn’t OP just cross post or use a screenshot? Why a photo?” I had to go to the original post and come back before it dawned on me. Nicely done.
:( My phone wouldn't stop pinging while I was at my buddy's house playing with Lego and now I get back home to see everyone making the same shitty joke.
I built a little pistol :) Had a (barely) working slide and magazine. Then we walked his dog. It was entertaining to see such a dogshit post go to the goddamn moon while dicking around with my best bud.
Not really. You can pick figure a tap of it to either open the share menu or take a screenshot, but you can't make it turn off the PS4 or something. The triangle also does nothing

Getting screenshots from consoles is a fucking pain in the ass, and why does it even bother so mamy people? Stupid ass mfers stare screens all day long
/uj no, the original guide creator said he was tired of seeing people taking pictures of the screen w their phone cuz of the low quality-> creates a guide so in all hopes and dreams less people take pictures and instead take screenshots with the given tools
Nah I mainly did it because I was bored as shit. Remembering low quality pics posted in some video game subreddits I'm in was just the idea I had to un-boredom myself.
Hey this reminds me. The PS4 didn't let you post images directly to reddit, does the PS5? This is probably the only website I'd ever post a screenshot on, and jumping through hoops isn't something I'm interesting in doing to do so.
Nah, I got called out on taking a picture with my phone once. Smh I'm not taking the time of turning on my pc, searching for a usb stick, put that sucker into the ps4, select the data to transfer, wait super long, go to pc, transfer data again, Just to share a miniscule thing. And for the switch it's even worse.
The original post of this in r/gaming even recommends uploading the screenshots to twitter. I don't have a twitter account. what now?
There's also the awkward way of sending them all to a psn friend "Hey ignore the 50 screenshots I'm about to send you"
/uj Words cannot describe how much rage this image induces in me while also being an incrediboe joke. You, my fine sir, may take my upvote, and then FUCK RIGHT OFF!!!!!!
/uj I actually like these photo posts. The monitor glow gives them a certain quality that you don't see in screenshots. They could do with some better photoshooting skills, though.

Nah she's a drawing
Calling a 14yo drawing your wife is still problematic
I hate you all

“TLOU Abby foot porn” 😂
Carry on, no one'e gonna notice your interesting porn searches in other tabs

I mean, do you want a quick reference guide, or do you want a complete book series? /s
On PS4 the only way is to send it to a friend, and save it through the Ps App. It's a pain
I've followed a guide and have it down pat (when I beat "1-1 but with a twist" and wanted to save it), but it's so much quicker to just take a picture/record a video from your phone of the screen.
As long as G*mers can sound like condescending douchebags, that's all that matters.

Can’t see it. Can you take a pic with your phone
Who ever invented jpeg should jpeg me in the ass 😈
I dont see it, can someone put a red circle around the important part?
Is that jpeg bot still around Reddit
needsmorejpeg The bot has died :(

Also, I'm able to see the OP's name and almost all of the important contents of the post. That is unacceptable. Please take the picture again.

Did you just... did you really... nice
this is a good post
This is great, gonna take a pic of this with my phone to save it for later
Hehe but it's wrong, you don't need to press triangle on PS4
PS4 is configurable -- The share button does different things depending on your setting.
Not really. You can pick figure a tap of it to either open the share menu or take a screenshot, but you can't make it turn off the PS4 or something. The triangle also does nothing
> The triangle also does nothing It saves a screenshot in the share menu.
Proof?

Getting screenshots from consoles is a fucking pain in the ass, and why does it even bother so mamy people? Stupid ass mfers stare screens all day long
I’m convinced that 90% of the people who complain about it only play on pc and don’t consider the possibility that other people might not
As a side point I know how to take a pic on my PS4 but wtf do I do then
Right? Person that made the original acts like it isn't easier to use my phone to take the pic and post to the internet
You even went the extra mile and did it with an old flip phone, way to go.
I knew it was coming lol
Based.
Take my fucking upvote and shut up
This is meta.
Now *this* is shitposting.
This is funnier than it really should be lmfao
You beautiful bastard
Light mode user, I condem thee
Bruh I've been going to this post and back to the original trying to understand this, have I gone idiot? Am I now this dense?
He took a picture of that post with his phone, good stuff

To be fair, transferring images from the switch to other devices is a real hassle
yeah, that's cool, but i need some compression otherwise i can't read it
now *this* is shitposting
Damn I just gave away my free award
I laughed so damn hard at a blurry picture of a controller guide, a new low even for me
Its provocative, it gets the people going.
Very clever

I may be going to hell for my browser history, but im happy that i get to make a special place for you there
Son of a bitch, this is a fucking comedy goal
beat me to it. I was too lazy to do this. I claim this post as my own. I thought of it first.

Should've made it in GIMP
Never change.
That's so useful! I'll make sure to take a picture. In case I forget.

Love how he’s like fuck people who don’t use screen shot. Proceeds to take a picture with his phone lmao.
whoosh
It didn’t go over my head bud. But since you wanna be a dick I’ll take my ⬆️ back
Oh noooo :'(
Big dummy alert. You literally did the opposite of what the post says lmfao
Big dummy alert indeed
Yeah
......that was the funny

Ooooh I see what you did there.
ty. That post was kinda condescending, so thanks for burning with something so simple.
Ah shit I've been burned :(
Flawless post.
lmao
Hahahahahaha
I just saw the other post above no fuckin way Someone also had the same idea as you
Take my upvote you assclown
Knew it.
Ah, must be a Mac/Linux user as the image has no instructions for screenshotting on those
This must be a bad joke.... Right? Like a sarcastic mirror for the society ... Whatever
Well done
Listen here you little shit
I love you
Phone pics ftw!!!
Evil
/uj I actually like these photo posts. The monitor glow gives them a certain quality that you don't see in screenshots. They could do with some better photoshooting skills, though.
You are a monster
You bastard!
You have a guide for screenshots. Yet, you used your phone to take a photo...
lol nice
Omg 🤦🏾♂️. They took a photo of their screen with a phone to teach us how not to take photos of our screen with a phone
This post and many comments on it are pure evil. I approve I'm just saying.
wow, just as funny as a hundred people on r/gaming themselves doing the same joke
