  • ACNHOpalrose ☽ Glittering Rose ☾ (@ACNHOpalrose) reported

    @msjayeberry I'm curious as to how. Nintendo made it so Sanrio villagers couldn't be adopted out. Did they fix this? :O

  • PeenAce Benjamin Bouwens (@PeenAce) reported

    @NintendoAmerica FIX YOUR ONLINE!

  • emperorkursan Chris Preston (@emperorkursan) reported

    @YssaCornChan I straight up never pay medical bills. Crooked *** broken American Healthcare system. I have nothing. Come confiscated my Nintendo switch and ****.

  • probablly hiccup (@probablly) reported

    To the Nintendo NA Rep I called to help me out with my card issue: You rock girl! 😎

  • Paper_thin_Man Jake, just another artist (@Paper_thin_Man) reported

    Oh hello, I just got back from being attacked by #Miitopia fans on a discord server when I brought up my legitimate issues and opinion with the game. Goes to show that some Nintendo fanboys just refuse to accept that there are people who don’t like a certain game they like.

    @OnlySyumiSan Talking about nintendo all the time isn't really an indicator of fanboy'ism. It can be... mind you... but if all they post is 100% positive stuff they've been brainwashed about everything with them is perfect and everyone else is wrong... its a glaring problem. For them and us.

  • PizzaMuttButt BIG Dumb Hesk (@PizzaMuttButt) reported

    I've been avoid sending it in to Nintendo to be fixed or replaced cause of how terrible the postal service is right now.

  • ZenigameDirect Nils | Zeni (@ZenigameDirect) reported

    I really don't get how I'm this unlucky with Nintendo hardware. All of my (three!) 3DS's have some kind of problem. Three out of four Joy Cons drift. WHY

  • HunterSearcy3 1CheezyBoi (@HunterSearcy3) reported

    @ZachArtistGamer @Mevans2703 Let's just hope that Nintendo doesnt do anything to Crash and Spyro once it (maybe) gets into the hands of Next Level Games.

  • TheHat_Guy The Guy With A Hat(Comm Me Pwease) (@TheHat_Guy) reported

    I hate videos on speedrunning that solely only talk about Nintendo properties or focus on really old N64 and NES **** like sure that one glitch is really hard, you know what else is really hard? Portal's any% speedrun where you have to shoot in the literal space between pixels

  • DJTakozawa 🐖DJTako🇲🇽🐙 (@DJTakozawa) reported

    @Kreevenant @nintyfan1991 @NitroRad The problem here is that activision kills series that sell well enough to focus on series that are guaranteed the money. Unlike series like metroid dont sell well to the point that a game that came out last year from nintendo sold the amount of the whole metroid franchise.

  • Veevo18 gazpacho (@Veevo18) reported

    @NintendoAmerica I refuse to pay for your online shity service, so no

  • SoS_Aerow Mister Launius (@SoS_Aerow) reported

    @ZenMonkeyStudio Hey, I'd be all for it! Haha. And if you ever make Yooka-Laylee stuff (or classic DKC/DK64 with Nintendo's help), I would absolutely be willing to buy some. Whatever the case, good luck with these, and I'll be hoping that approval goes through without much trouble.

  • BeastModePaul1 TE | BeastModePaul (@BeastModePaul1) reported

    In the Nut Cases minigame the game froze and I couldn't move for some reason this is a great online service @NintendoAmerica @NintendoUK @NintendoVS

  • jeanpaulcabrer7 JeanPapitas (@jeanpaulcabrer7) reported

    @Clickteam hey clickteam i found one error in ultimate custom night for nintendo switch When I try to pressure helpy he does not leave the office so please thank you very much if you can solve the problem

  • jessek JΞΣΣΞ К. (@jessek) reported

    @Foone Was my first thought when I got that issue in 1990. “Why chess and not the new version of Nintendo, whatever that may be?”

  • LCBebop LC @ Everhood (@LCBebop) reported

    @JLuisJoni At least we can count on Nintendo to put out the Mario greatness. I’m glad we at least got crash 4 Maybe we’ll get a banjo 3 soon idk

  • jaelyncrossing nom took (@jaelyncrossing) reported

    Nintendo really said “oh y’all are bored from time traveling and doing all the events too fast? Lemme fix that”

  • PizzaMuttButt BIG Dumb Hesk (@PizzaMuttButt) reported

    Oooo so while drunk last night I was actually able to get my Nintendo Switch working again. It's legit been a paper weight for the last 7 months cause it would turn on or charge at all. BUT now I am faced with a new problem with it.

  • Npc8Some NettleSomeNPC (@Npc8Some) reported

    @HypeF7 @NintendoAmerica Okay but it's literally a whole new game I don't see the problem here

  • KenPlain JustPlainKen (@KenPlain) reported

    @richardlord751 @RetroBlasting How did they fix the problem?! And how is it any different then how Nintendo dealt with their shortages?

  • timkimm TK◎ (@timkimm) reported

    @ZssBecker @ZssBecker, Once we're bazillionaires off crypto let's buy Nintendo just to fix Smash online servers and actually sponsor the competitive scene. Time to make the world a better place.

  • patricknotirl patrick (@patricknotirl) reported

    nintendo wii broken

  • WistfulAether Wistful (@WistfulAether) reported

    @Destructo_Dan @elliotduby Not like they'd actually make Crash (that makes no logical sense) but how ******** would NINTENDO screw over a PLATFORMER? are you okay?

  • GamingT97380682 Gaming Time (@GamingT97380682) reported

    @BriceNicholXIII @Polygonal666 While i don't condone either side of the coin here, the issue isn't that it's they hate their fans, it's that Nintendo's higher ups are simply out of touch with the gaming landscape. Nintendo is slow when it comes to evolving, it eventually happens, but slowly they adapt.

  • laylastardrop ******* Kirby Moon (@laylastardrop) reported

    This is a really hot button issue with some people so I don't mean to rub salt in any hurt feelings, but the "exp system" in mario plus rabbids, new paper mario games and the now very notable absence of mario & luigi's makes me feel like at it's core nintendo is afraid of EXP rn

  • StillUseful2 StillUseful (@StillUseful2) reported

    @sabinescrossing I mean, I’ve been TTing since original Animal Crossing on GameCube, never seemed like Nintendo had a problem with it before
