@Nintendeal "Nintendo will attempt to transfer save data" Does that mean they make you send in the entire fricking console for replacement just to fix the controllers?

@Dexerto So Nintendo goes crazy with anti piracy hardware and software, but can’t understand how to fix an input drift???

@Sonicenthusiest Yeah $70 is too much, hope it’s $60 cause 70 is too much, plus with Nintendo pricing DK at $60 and then saying they are doing variable pricing for different games but yeah games are getting expensive and it’s a genuine issue

Creator could fix the problems. It said 300 characters and 100 antagonists works for Eiyuden Chronicle. Nintendo switch. Part 2 is not ultimate. 32 gb is enough. It will worked on the top 25 Nintendo switch games.

They didn't even fix the problem that plagued the last console? LMFAO Nintendo is such a dogshit gaming company. I look forward to the day of total AAA death. Maybe some passionate indie upstarts can become the next generation of developers.

@NintendoAmerica Not really worth it Which is best? A full dlc with even more lore and story and items or an "upgrade" that takes dlc away to change it to only app service?

@mightyd_2 Personally I have no issues with him or his content, but yeah he never really keeps his word when it comes to this. And then he goes and buys Cyberpunk, he’s doing the same thing he complains Nintendo fans do when they buy Mario on every new console.

I know this game is new to @NintendoAmerica players @PaweSasko. But the problem today is games that came out years ago are being sold a "new". CYBERPUNK 2077 isn’t new software. Game development companies need to start focusing on the 2nd "CP" game. And release it for all platforms once it’s ready. 🎮

@raresecrets_ @MARIMARI_EN 70-90 dollar price tags are unreasonable but the sad reality is this will be the norm because we as the consumers will buy it anyway and I see we because I am part of the problem I hate 70-90 dollar games but ******* damn it Nintendo makes some great games so it's hard not to.

Nintendo took their sweet time with development for this console and still didn't fix the most common issue with the Switch? Thank you, Nintendo for reinforcing my choice not to buy your stupid product.

And every last one of these crap sacks who keep sucking Nintendo off and defending these prices not only through their mouths, but also through their money, are just part of the problem.

@KitsuneKokoroVT well when your company has a cult like following and knows people will buy it no matter what just cause its new aint no need to fix it. Nintendo aint the only company like this either

@suayrez @kirawontmiss Are you guys good? I’m having trouble sleeping due to the insane hype for the Nintendo Switch 2 🔥 I have never seen anything like this before. I never had interest buying a Steam Deck but for Nintendo? I honestly feel bad for you guys lol

The Switch 2 looks like a hostage situation in plastic. I’m not paying $400 to beta test Nintendo’s spaghetti-coded trashpile while praying my controllers don’t start moonwalking by week 2. Fix your damn console.

@BCynical_ It is... Last time I had a Switch, the joycons drifted a lot faster than any of my dualsenses. Sadly this isn't a new problem for Nintendo. They had a decade to address it.

@iFixit so, to be fair: it's likely the form factor WAS the problem. nintendo isn't the only company using this same stick tech, and joycons had the most drift issues by a CATASTROPHIC margin. the larger housing likely IS the best fix Nintendo could do given the other tech being used.

@TRHLofficial This is definitely not true. My kids had Nintendo and never had that trouble. Blowing in the cartridge eliminates the dust and makes for a better connection.

@PiranhaPeaceful @gamestop I remember nintendo itself said they were gonna have problems with fulfilling pre-orders, but that was in Japan. Not sure if that changed or will affect the states.

@Diblox_ @Switch2Stock @NintendoAmerica I dont understand how I never needed a new controller with my ps2/xbox360, but I’ve needed multiple ps5 and switch controllers. XSX is solid tho. I dont see how we devolved unless it was somewhat intentional. Maybe they didn’t plan for it, but they’re not encouraged to fix it.

@UniversalQuacks The issue is that what incentive is there for companies for SGF? With E3, it was expected of you to show off big stuff, and it could look bad on your company if you didn’t have a good show. For SGF, why would Nintendo, Sony, or Xbox care if Geoff has a good show?

I believe CrossWorlds being as expensive as it is will do nothing except harm the playerbase that SEGA desperately needs to grow especially if the game has live service elements in it. SEGA do not have that Nintendo motion where people will mindlessy buy their stuff.

@Dexerto They could’ve fixed the problem but why would they when you’ll just buy another controller. There’s gotta be some loophole in this Nintendo is a very anti consumer company

@ibs0012 @Dexerto Replacements wouldn't be necessary in the first place if they had fixed the stick drift issues since 2017. Nintendo doesn't deserve any praise whatsoever right now for free replacements.

@Dexerto I am not purchasing a Switch 2 until they fix this it’s crazy that Nintendo had years to prepare for this and they did nothing

Issue with Nintendo Switch 2. If you find that your controllers are not working wirelessly, you will have to power off the Switch 2 using the Power Button and selecting turn off. Once you turn it back on the controllers will start working wirelessly again. #NintendoSwitch2

@chokensp Im old enough to remember these prices lol. Also, last I checked every company raises prices every generation. This isnt a "Nintendo" issue, its a "Welcome to econ 101" issue. Sony raised prices from $60 to $70 with the PS5 and games will be $90 on PS6

@Burrbradley1 @Switch2Stock @NintendoAmerica that's because of the current tech used for sticks. PS5 and Xbox have the same problem, unfortunately. other solutions other the hall effect exists, but none of the main manufacturers seems to want to implement them.
