  @Grummz I'm more concerned with Nintendo's decaying business practices. The empty cartridges, the increasing service fees, and mistreatment of talent is what's turning me off.

  @FortniteStatus Please help fix the FPS and lag on Nintendo Switch 😭😭

  Closing statement. This isn’t a skill issue, as most of it is just clutter from the amount of players. My sibling said ”you only have fun when you’re winning” IM NOT HAVING FUN BECAUSE ITS JUST STRAIGHT UP FRUSTRATING. This was a huge downgrade from 8 deluxe. Do better Nintendo.

  @ThnhNamPhan3 i see it because i go looking for sanrio products and quickly notice a few weeks later, theyre gone. because they got copyrighted, meaning they had to change products to avoid it becoming a financial issue. it happened a few years ago with nintendo copyrighting ppl lmfao.

  @Moskaato @Stealth40k @GyoJvfr Yes, and every time it happens, it’s a problem. “Nintendo isn’t the first time that’s happened so don’t blame Nintendo” no, I will blame them for doing it because they know they can. If you do, in fact, do something, then you did, in fact, do the thing. Literally basic logic.

  How @NoMansSky released cross save with Nintendo switch 2, have be absolutely broken and unable to play cross save, after people paid for the product for a second time. To not even acknowledge it is diabolical behaviour.

  Didn't Nintendo push a Day 1 patch to fix these specific issues? Update your ****.

  @videotechuk_ @NintendoAmerica Nah, don't justify even higher prices, 70 euros/dollars is expensive as is, add in fact that publishers like to price things at 10-20 dollars more in poorer countries for whatever reason and it's a hellhole that deserves some AAA crash

  @APXMK Nintendo needs to add cooldowns to the jump thing. Shows how broken it is

  @LucarioSplat2 I have the same issue. Not just Ninjala, but other games too on Nintendo Switch 2.

  Monado // Justin (@Monado_) reported 29 minutes ago

  @KahunaCilver520 Same people that call Nintendo the devil of the industry too, like yeah they have their problems, like being lawsuit heavy and such. But at least I know the money for that $80 game isn't lining the pockets of the CEO. They're actively hiring people, not firing lol.

  @LordM3MA @Ethanzilla1984 @Paleonyx_Art i already said once that i believe it's silly they aren't going after the obvious issues with palworld's models and the easiest claims of plagiarism. that does not mean the model issues don't exist, nor does it mean i agree with what nintendo *is* going after.

  wait I just realized this means Nintendo *lied* in their compatibility data. Pikmin 3 was not in any of the lists of problematic games, meaning Nintendo was insinuating the game worked perfectly. Yet here the game is completely not working.

  Burke (@burke7187) reported 47 minutes ago

  I have much less of an issue with a game like this being $80 than a Nintendo game that could have been made two gens ago and that has a much smaller team and dev cycle. It's just where the industry is going.

  vincey (@yungxvincey) reported 49 minutes ago

  @ChurchOfMoons The problem isn't that nintendo can reasonably charge $80 because their software is usually worth it. The problem is that Ubisoft, EA and all the other mass market slopware companies are going to charge $80 and the games aren't worth it.

  @8BitDo heads up, Nintendo updated the Switch 1 again and the "USB Wireless Adapter 2" is not working... Again. The system recognizes a controller but the controller won't function. (Buttons and directionals do not register). And I just updated to the latest firmware

  The free to play Power Pro baseball game for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch by Konami is closing down its service

  @Apexpredatory1 @kirux_alternat3 Nintendo would charge you 200 dollars for garbage, and you pigs will eat it like slop from a trough. If you had any standards at all, we wouldn't have any issues.

  @Sadcat42069 @ModernVintageG Because Nintendo first party games are very polished, high quality, no day 1 patch games. Nintendo launched a new console with a new multiplayer game and it worked. How many new online games have server issues the first couple of days?

• 
  Grummz (@Grummz) reported 55 minutes ago

  $80 will work on Nintendo fans and 1st party Nintendo games, but the rest of the industry is going to find out. Fast track to AAA game market crash, esp if they keep virtue signaling in games, offering stale content, and lots of bugs.

  Spouik (@Spouik_) reported 56 minutes ago

  @ABitofEpicness @NintendoAmerica It's probably an issue with the compatibility layer like the squid roll glitch in Splatoon 3, there are always issues like this with this kind of backward compat systems I'm pretty sure they'll patch it soon

  @Xtremeisthebest @Pirat_Nation Nintendo is doing the LEAST. thats the problem. Nintendo runs pokemon btw, they have some say in how it works & the funding for it. if the game is *** we can blame the runners of the pokemon series but its also owned by Nintendo who oversees it, some fault is on them

  @AnAverageGamerX I don’t think he’s a Nintendo glazer like so many people act like he is but I kinda wish he would leave the haters alone, I think that’s his issue. He’s brining a lot of attention to a controversial topic. But I do hope those numbers check out so he isn’t hammered anymore.

  Alfredo Toons (@Alfredo_Toons) reported 57 minutes ago

  @ConnorOhOne @makio_jroses I don't understand how or why Nintendo would impose a deadline, especially considering they are known for delaying their own games if they don't meet their standards. If you can't understand the difference between The Pokémon Company and Nintendo then you are part of the problem.
