@mrpokeplayer_ @kristjian @NintendoAmerica I love the switch but I shouldn't have to do open heart surgery on a product I buy. I have a day 1 switch and before free repairs I went through like 3 pairs. Also all you have to do is stay electronics cleaner the dust off and it helps. Still they can fix a joystick control box.

@animalcrossing If you're using the entitlement card as a means for our frustration, you're part of the problem! Stop using that as a excuse to justify Nintendo's stale formula and lack of content in this game! Doesn't matter if PC makes more money. This game deserves the same amount of love.

I really wanna play Pokémon Unite but I can’t buy **** digitally on my switch anymore. Nobody’s cards work, transactions get denied. I’ve hit up Nintendo support but they said my account looks clear and it’s not their issue. Guess I gotta buy one of them redeem cards.

@yoeddieeee @32DaCrow @NintendoAmerica nintendo fans scared that this one actually has a chance lol. It has almost none of the issues of the vita, because it actually has games on launch lol

@PaulGannonShow Link kept walking off a cliff, so I decided to avail myself of Nintendo's joycon fixing service. In the meantime bought another pair. That was two, years or so ago... wonder if I'll ever send off the first pair...

@AjRemember @DoctorFishbones No but you see, they're not technically corrupt because of some specific definition of corrupt, and they didn't directly recieve corrupt money and the sun was in their eyes and their controller was broken and their dad works at nintendo... - Kyle Kulinski

@mktevans @NintendoAmerica Get over it. All it does is allow you to return to the sky from anywhere instead of having to run for 15 seconds to get to a bird statue. OMG the game is broken now.

@Mevans2703 Dw about it. Ignore what they say. If you would be such a big, blind Nintendo fanboy you wouldn't love the Crash Bandicoot franchise that much.

@ZenkaiM2 They can't get the game past 10fps yet Sadge (Hope to God it's improved since initial showing, however the Nintendo treehouse at e3 this year looked okay aside from major lag in big fights and loading)

@PanicBarn 1. I'm having a problem. I'm playing the Nintendo Switch version of Not Tonight: Take Back Control Edition. I'm at the King's Head Pub on "July 9, 2018", and I have been told that I have to press down on the L stick to scan for contraband.

Btw yes I know that this tweet is referring to the 3 specific people that tweet a lot about Nintendo (I just wanted to joke around) Personally I don't have a problem with them even if what they tweet can feel a bit automated if you get what I mean But they're cool

@HylianHero98 Super Mario 3D All-Stars, because of the missed potential. With how big Nintendo is and how much they (used to) care, they had the opportunity to make this the best of the HD Trilogies. But they didn’t. I don’t think anyone will talk about it like the Crash & Spyro trilogies

@Ahabs_Mind nintendo cant even have it's exclusives run stable on switch but every game on steam deck at 30fps minimum is a problem

Having trouble deciding which ‘classic’ I’ve never played to stream next. Thoughts? I didn’t grow up with main Nintendo consoles so going back to play what I missed. #Twitch

@BoundaryBreak @Nintendeal I'd have to disagree because I feel like they're serving two different markets. Nintendo has had an established niche for decades and the switch has taken that niche on the go. The Steam Deck will have trouble breaking that niche with a higher price point (1/2)

@AlHamm0ud I actually ended up sending it in to Nintendo's repair service because it was under warranty. Just got it back yesterday and it's working perfectly.

@10Metsu_ @kristjian @NintendoAmerica well we can’t do much about it though. also the electronic cleaner doesn’t last long it drifts after a day. it’s not much work to open your joycons and fix em! works great.

@AnishDLS1 @SomeWalnuts Valve is overrated yes but from a business standpoint they're leagues better than most big studios. Bethesda, Activision, Ubisoft, Nintendo, all have some pretty big issues from a business and marketing standpoint. For me it's not about content, it's about community support.

Seriously Nobody
(@hellacasgaming) reported
@l3layze @ACWorldBlog The developers actually have to manually implement the seasonal activities into the game. Hopefully with this next update they fix that so we don’t have to keep relying on Nintendo for anything

3. There appears to be a bug or issue on the Nintendo Switch version! When will the issue be fixed so that Scan and Ban will work again? 😢 If you can please fix the game, I'll be very happy to oblige.
