@DKT_Nyoko @LoganDulken @Pokemon The problem is there is 50% of fanbase who wants next to no change and 50% that wants a lot and nintendo has to make sure they disappoint both at all cost

@Folk_Gazlow @BrainDumpTweets Sent mine back to Nintendo for repair. Like filled an online form out, and had to live without them for a while. But it was when joycon drift was a big issue in the media, and they were repairing them for free(which they didn't announce). Hopefully they're still doing it nowadays

@slave_snyder @CartridgeGames -the rumored launch of a "Switch Pro", Nintendo will mitigate the hardware problem by releasing a upgrade that will contains the same experience as the base console at a higher fidelity, further extending the life-span of the console.

@ZwiezenZ Yeah. I pray that they fix it up by 2022 but judging by Game Freak's past efforts in 3D game tech, I'm not too confident. Maybe they'll bring in Monolith Soft like Nintendo did for BotW/ACNH/Splatoon? Also I really hope there's more to the gameplay than was shown in the trailer.

@WoodenRailOnly I plan to sell MY switch as it has the drifting problem which I find impossible to fix no matter what I do, might sell it for a low price since it’s broken, I’m not even much of a fan of Nintendo

@Eoghan891 @NintendoAmerica A just because it’s a different company doesn’t mean it’s bad B the issue with Pokémon is they’ve been “innovating” and adding all this bs to the game instead of strengthening the core gameplay and fans have been begging them to strengthen the core gameplay for years

@NintendoAmerica i don't understand how i buy a console such as the nintendo switch and all it does it crash all games i try to play or gives me green pixels. Your support is taking days to provide a resolution that im pretty sure is going to be "Send it in for repair"

@saltydkdan One is outsourced without an original artstyle to accommodate for the otherwise extremely simplistic design The other had framerate issues in the TRAILER It's basically expectations of polish present in any other Nintendo Franchise

i feel like ive said it a million times but nintendo's doomed if we don't hear ab a switch pro within the year. this open world thing looks like it'd rock but even in the trailer the performance issues are ........ very apparent

@matstarify I'm pretty certain game freak has more money than nintendo. Hire more people if it's an issue. They just want what will make them the most money over making quality games cause people will buy them anyways

its so annoying that every time a nintendo game receives valid criticism people circulate this narrative that fans "always have to find something to ***** about" like have you maybe just considered that the fans arent the issue in this scenario

@Mizusdo I think I might just be too used to nintendo. I have to reach really far to get the sticks on this and the ps4 one had the same issue for me I think

@SunsetNiva @Nivaris_art @TeePublic I personally take 0 issue with what you drew, nor do I have any particular love of Nintendo. This is just something you see all the time with big companies that have big IPs like Disney as well. Just drawing it doesn't usually catch attention, but merch/products rile them up x.x

@dwhes @TimGettys @CarterHarrell The hardware is not the problem. They just need to ask Nintendo and monolith soft for help

Honestly I wish I could be excited for any new pokemon game. But here's the issue... Nintendo is cringe now Pokemon is cringe now They're gonna eff it up somehow. Breath of Wild Pokemon looks cool. However, they're gonna eff it up somehow. I'm more than happy to be proven wrong

So I know I have been being super critical of the PS5 design and issues after buying it yesterday, but let's give credit where credit is due - so long as the controller isn't drifting and the resistance doesn't break - Dualsense is an utterly innovative. Nintendo like.

@ottservia id keep one just in case. at least until nintendo is confirmed to stop updating the 3DS especially considering that surprise update a few months ago that broke 3DSs with CFW (just ask connor i had to fix it for him)
