Buckle up, 3DS owners, because Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS is going to give your system one hell of a ride.

Just three days after launching in Japan, dozens of people have reported broken thumb pads on their 3DS systems. The systems have been seen breaking in many different ways, from the reparable to the utterly destroyed, and it’s a bad sign for anyone who’s hoping to play Smash Bros. for hours on end on their 3DS.

The reports are mostly coming from owners of the original 3DS model, but there have been a few reported thumb pads broken from Nintendo 3DS XL systems. Hopefully the New Nintendo 3DS will have a more secure thumb pad, but in the meantime, make sure you’re as gentle as possible with that thumb pad while you play Smash Bros. on your 3DS.
