@MPLNetwork None because this game was ruined by the free update crap. It shouldn't have come out with 10 characters Nintendo shouldn't release content light games and fix them later #IStandWithDemeech #StopFixItLater

@Escaflowne2001 @dayofpi Yeah I don't really care about Nintendo games all that often why would I talk about it and either way we are talking about it now so what's the problem

@VengeanceVX For me personally I dislike the map design they’re going for in this game. Latency is my biggest issue with the game cuz it’s just frankly unacceptable that Nintendo released a game with this much latency, bugs, and frame drops.

@PownicMania5000 I hope people understand that it’s not Next Level Game’s fault for Battle League’s issues, but that Nintendo probably rushed them into finishing the game. These updates are pretty big but a lot of people are saying that a lot those should have been base game stuff already.

@siannnyyy26 @HylianH3ro That is strange, if Splatoon 2 doesn’t have the same issue and Splatoon 3 is relatively similar to 2 then it most definitely will have to be because of the new servers. That is what I can infer from you are text. I just hope that if there is a growing issue then Nintendo must….

@BuddhaDoodle @FortniteStatus Totally get that,and yes problems are expected with large updates, but my point was, nintendo switch user issues almost always get ignored or left till last regardless of when it is, ive been having glitches for months before now..this crashing is just a new larger issue on top

@_HedgehogNinja_ @XenobladePT Well I never had issues preordering mine because Nintendo Australia prepared for demand, so I bought my edition the moment it was released. I got this email it was being delivered about 2 weeks ago; I’ll find the email rn.

The whole kink discourse is an interpretation of intent issue. It's like you saying: "that's a nice dress." And the person interpret it as flirting. If that comment came from a person who looks like a designer (Disney movie or Nintendo), the person wouldn't think twice.

@itz_walshy The point of preservation is to ensure the game isn’t lost to time (FF8, WeaponLord, etc). What Nintendo game has this issue? Nintendo keeps legacy code on deck, and is making effort to even make unreleased games available for purchase (StarFox 2). PC is more at fault here.💯

@NintendoCanada @NintendoAmerica @SplatoonNA Day 13 (14 with Splatfest) of asking for a fix for the “not enough players” error on Splatoon 3. I guess you’re just going to leave a bunch if us with a game we can’t play that we spent $90 on and charge us for an online service that

Nintendo should give some kind of free in-game reward as an apology for all these communication errors in Splatoon like other online games do when they **** up. But of course they won’t lol.

@PownicMania5000 The game is not soulless, far from it actually. Clearly, Next Level Games care a lot for it. It’s just a ******* shame that Nintendo most likely rushed them into finishing the game. The game itself has so many issues that the updates are trying to fix but the damage is done.

@MassiveMonsters @devolverdigital Cult of the Lamb: Crashes on Nintendo Switch on completion on a room and receiving a gold chest. I can only assume it must be a million gold nuggets that crash my game each time I recieve a gold chest late game. Please fix this.

@Colteastwood Ppl always say Phil saved Xbox and I agree. But then they want the same model to apply to PlayStation. Maybe they need to be in trouble first? Also kinda weird that nobody seems to demand it of Nintendo lol.
