Okay why ******** did my wifi just cut off. Like its not working on my laptop and my Iphone, even my Nintendo switch is not working wtf is happening

Hero 영웅
(@JulionP) reported
@Kasikuo_San @SSBUNews Doesn't change his status as iconic lol I kinda get how you feel, but that seems like a poor reason to think Nintendo made him broken on purpose. Every character that's come out so far has appealed to a certain group, and I'd argue Sephiroth has one of the largest

@sailorsweg I would swear on an issue of Nintendo Power.

@luulubuu They acknowledged it’s existence, the claim that they said it has caused people no harm is untrue as they wasn’t a claim made by Nintendo, but by a prosecutor to nintendo They still need to fix this

Hey You, Pikachu! might be the worst game for the Nintendo 64 and is a prime example of starting with the technology and looking for a problem to solve. Even when it’s janky mic works perfectly the game (if you can call it that) is just brutally boring.

@xMBGx Games and...when you consider this #7 ... 7. Microsofts refund policy is much more flexible (both sony and nintendo are stuck in the past w refunds and customer service sorry) 8. Lets face it...xbox has always had a better online infrastructure XBL = paved the way for online

@Tristanwelsh Yeah, sadly contact cleaner eventually stops working too and that's the end for your sticks. Nintendo needs to finally fix these cheap plastic controllers

@NintendoAmerica one of my favorite things about the Nintendo Switch is when my controllers disconnect every few seconds! Excellent software! Nothing like this brand new piece of hardware glitching!! 🥴

@ChallengerPack9 For one, Nintendo clearly has no issue collaborating with third parties (even some of the same ones multiple times) to get characters into Smash Ultimate. Additionally, this is admittedly a bit of a weaker reason, but following the trend of the first pass, it seems likely (1/2)

@thepunkrockmba You'll want to keep an eye on online shops on a regular basis. Scalpers buy 'em up like hot cakes the moment they're in stock. Had the same issue with the Nintendo Switch when that came out.

Cinderace for Smash!
(@ChallengerPack9) reported
@Chosen4Smash 20% Dark Souls is a cool franchise dont get me wrong, but the game hasn't been relevant long enough to deem it worthy for Smash, especially when other third-parties are being promoted much more by Nintendo such as Crash or Spyro I think he's too obscure but I could be wrong!

(@Morgman006) reported
@Gamingmints I feel like people are way too nostalgia blinded that they just praise the game. Despite that it’s filled with problems because Toys for Bob really think they know what made the original trilogy special, even though they obviously don’t. Just like Nintendo fans with fan games.

Nintendo not issuing patches for Animal Crossing will always piss me off. “Oh, you can’t cross your zen bridge, or give your villagers wreaths?! Sorry, just wait a few months for an entire content update, we’ll fix it then!” 💀

@KoopaTroopa4494 I mean, assuming that another Nintendo rep in general will be added in the 2nd pass has only 1 more chance, and thats CP9, because CP10 is more lively gonna be revealed at E3 2021 (mostly 3rd party, prediction is Crash) and CP11 has to end it off with a bang (mostly 3rd party)

@MarkLundie1 @Canadianguyehh @bandicootpage 25th anniversary. Most series get atleast one game to commemorate when they reach that milestone. Nintendo went all out for Mario last year, and will do the same Zelda and Pokemon this year. Sega does the same for Sonic. Namco with PacMan. Would be shocked if Crash got nothing.

@GamGams64 tbh... I disagree. I usually think Nintendo's LEs are, at the very least, nice-looking (Animal Crossing Switch is beautiful). But this Mario Switch has so many issues that I wouldn't want it lol. When I look at this thing I think "Spider-Man" not Mario.

@coboney @TechRaptr Feels like so many at this point, that it's a frickin' wonder how Nintendo seemingly refuses to directly address this issue, even now.

@BanditSSBU The target demographic is children, and maybe a rollercoaster might be too much of a liability issue for Nintendo's first theme park attraction.

(@ChallengerPack9) reported
@Real_VideoGAG Okay this may take a couple of posts Crash: 80% This dude is being promoted crazy and such in Nintendo software, like how we got a Nitro-Fueled free trial, Nintendo has a good relationship with Activision, and there was that leaked road map too, so he's highly possible!

@ActualAero Game freak hired more people and moved fairly close to Nintendo. Here's hoping that they can fix the issues we have.

@nintendolife Good. Nintendo needs to address this and many other issues before they even think of releasing a Switch Pro
