@buflen_smm @Ryannnnnnn_7 I have a PS4 and a Switch, and I don’t really have an issue with this. I bet if Nintendo went with a bottom button format, I wouldn’t be happy about it.

@m_abdulmohsenn An even bigger problem is Nintendo putting out weak consoles causing gamers to download metronid dread for free and play it at 4k 60fps on Pc. The YouTube videos of it is glorious😑

@crecenteb I have a OG switch with speaker issues (no longer plays any sound). Nintendo wants $100 for repair. Do you think its worth it to get the OLED model or just pay for a repair?

@ventrus_kyarn Yeah its the same in super smash from wii i remember that. Look i prefer that rather than having everything and get bored of the game in 2 days The omly problem is how ******* absurd and expensive it is. And Nintendo being Nintendo, there wont be any discount or sale ever

Day 4 of posting till I get a reply. @Walmart @walmarthelp When are y’all going to start giving real, actual updates on OLED Switch pre-orders? The bullshit scripted answers that your off shore “customer service” is giving is getting old! #NintendoSwitchOLED #Walmart #Nintendo

NASB running tournaments on Switch makes sense but must be infuriating as a player For reference, Michelangelo is banned because Nintendo takes sometimes up to a month to approve patches so Switch is behind on bug fixes on top of performance issues. Why not use PS4 or something?

@TheNCSmaster @joshscorcher The Switch has its issues, but holy crap it is still such a fanatic system. Not since the GameCube have a I bought so many games, both first and third party, for just a Nintendo console.

After much trouble, my copy of Metroid Dread finally arrived! Nintendo cancelled my preorder without telling me, glitch in the system, so I ordered elsewhere. Then post got delayed, taking 4 days for a next day delivery. Now I just need to wait till the Amiibo arrive on Nov 4th!

this is making me want to take up animal crossing again tbh. problem is i deleted my island so the kid could have their own (mostly they just fill up their pockets with fruit and weeds), and it's on a switch account that's not connected to my nintendo online sub. hmmmmmmmmm

@LubbaSMG2 This is really only an issue with Toads I notice honestly, especially with Paper Mario(Though that has gotten better since Sticker Star), and this moreso feels like Nintendo just thinking it will be easier to use the already well known designs rather than worrying about sales

@TGS_2012 @swooper_d I'm working on my review of the switch version. Worst bug I had was a tie between some graphical distortion when picking up a power up and one game crash when waking up the system. The glitches were UTTERLY blown WAY out of proportion by the media and Nintendo bashers

DLC is $25 on November 5th. Pre-order is 10/29, if you have the Nintendo switch online expansion pack it’s part of the service if you don’t wanna buy it solo. Series five of amiibo cards also is November 5th

@ZachaRic_O @rayquaza36 I would recommend trying to get it on another system as the switch version of every game (including the PS2 games for some stupid reason) are cloud service only and Nintendo's online servers are notoriously bad

I truly do not believe the backlash towards bandai for ex tamers warranted a recall when the gachas were never refunded and were the actual problem but if it actually was then japanese digimon fans are more entitled than western Nintendo fans (which I don't believe is possible)

I actually had this one when it was new and it kicked my butt. I was hellbent on getting through it. Over the course of many months, I made it through all the palaces. (With a lot of trial and error and Nintendo Power magazines).

@Kotaku I dunno if I'm alone in this but until they put the ROMs back into Animal Crossing, I just don't care. I tried like 4 other versions and for me it definitely peaked on Gamecube. It's not even a rights issue; Nintendo owns the games, they could just dump em in there at will.
