@cinderlotus The issue is with the Switch, not the card. Nothing you can do really until Nintendo fixes the firmware :( And they probably just said "new" to make it sound less dire to people unaffected, but include anything within the last couple years. That's my guess.

@RGT_85 Nah. Nintendo would never give us an online service with classic games....oh wait...

If it's an indie company I understand reversing it, but for a major corporation like Nintendo, they should have just accepted it as an error on their part and let it slide. At least more people would have purchased the game; those that obtained the DLC.

Is it just me, or does #Fortnite currently run pretty bad? Enemy players and NPCs are lagging pretty much. I'm playing on Nintendo Switch on the European Server. Am I the only one with that problem or does anyone else have it? #FortniteInvasion #FortniteSeason7 @FortniteGame

Nintendo I hope you can fix up the update so downloads don't break how are most of is going to download Skyward sword if the update keeps breaking downloads ? And how are people going to download wave 1 of age of calamity?

@SwimsuitHakufu Smh. That's still a "lowest common denominator" issue the only difference is that Tecmo is stuck with the bill. Putting something on Nintendo is difficult because of its limited and expensive cart size. While other consoles have less expensive ways of doing it (disk media)

@stevent2002 @fpell92 @NintendoAmerica And that speedrun also proves my point, if you can be skilled enough to pull that off (aside from the glitch parts), then you can beat Alduin that way. That's the very argument you used to justify BotW's combat, proven to also be the case in Skyrim.

@BabyAngel_IG @RaLo_GoD @OhNoItsAlexx No you didn’t always get the whole game and in some cases it was worst back then. Say the first wave of carts of say Mario 64 had a glitch that was near or completely game breaking. What Nintendo would’ve done is released a new wave of carts where the issue was fixed.

@chuggaaconroy @ZackMorrisDT @shinobi_skull It just stems back to Nintendo's issue of trying to add a gimmick to every game they make. Like why try to fix something that was never broken. By the end I basically spammed my coins and made the toads do the solutions for me, OK is such a slog of a game

@RetroResolution @MicrosoftHelps @Microsoft they've probably noticed that neither nintendo or sony have fixed their broken **** and figure folks will just keep buying new controllers like switch and ps5 owners have to.

@dragonrezi If it’s joycon drift I recommend sending it to Nintendo for repairs, that’s what I did with mine and it only took them a few days! I haven’t had any problems since

@Count_Roxy Yeah the devs took that out because they felt it was just kind of pointless fan service I think Nintendo would have a stroke if that showed up in smash

@geoghard1 that's bad ): do you have a nintendo hq where you could mail your controllers to in order to fix it? that's what i had to do for my joycons although now i mostly just use the pro controller

@Gentlecatz @SYACVG Well thats Nintendos BS. Meanwhile Microsoft and Sony. Heck even Capcom had absolutely no issues with their IPs. Nintendo is the stingiest of any gaming corporation with their IPs.

@Hayke_ how does that refute my argument at all? obviously having a custom server is amazing, but let's be honest, it's not as good as Nintendo WFC was. even players from the same continent can lag pretty bad in 10-12 player rooms, and just one JP/AUS player can lag for everyone else.

. @1Life2Play I went to your event last night and now my controller that has never had issues before has severe problems. Non-nintendo adapters break controllers. I have mods on mine for accessibility sake due to hand damage. 100+$ destroyed. Very cool.

@KanesTheName Did it get fixed? Or does Nintendo still have a real problem on their hands?
