@e_peyote Nintendo claims they've fixed the issue with joysticks but it should've never been an issue in the first place. What are the off brand ones running?

@rnp__90 @Anything4Orbs @NintendoAmerica "What does that" referring to the tweet I was replying to that was talking about Xenoblade 2, "have to do with Crash or Tony Hawk?"

@SamWils19061969 @Anything4Orbs @NintendoAmerica I have no issues with anyone giving criticism on someone’s take, but it’s just wrong to just tell them “no you’re wrong” And it was completely unrelated because this guy is a loser that does nothing except baits people for attention

@TAHK0 There's nothing wrong with liking it. I have my own issues with the game, and the ending is every horrible problem with writing Time Travel. Like at least Nintendo did something with the overall Zelda Timeline with the OoT time travel, Skyward Swords ending just makes no sense.

@LinkinPrime @FortniteGame @NintendoAmerica As a man who loves playing big skins like Cable, I would have no issue with it. I just want my girl Samus. Plus, worse comes to worse, they just do the Zero Suit instead of both to make her Fortnite-fit

Got banned for 46 mins on Smash cause "Disconnecting". Glad Nintendo doesn't know the difference between disconnecting and Internet problems.

@Banana_Meteor I don’t know the exact detail. But the swamp one is from 101% Nintendo 64 and the beanstalk is from Total 64. I sadly do not know which issues.

@_radben @NintendoAmerica No ****? Damn that’s frustrating. I’m half tempted to just buy a new set hoping they fixed the problem in the last 4 years but a new set is like $80.

@aloewatxr I thought it was a storage thing at first but I deleted a few saves and worlds and it STILL HAPPENS Nintendo needs to fix their **** because this isn't mojang doing ... I think

@NintendoAmerica Are you guys going to do anything about the ridiculous scalping problem with the Legend of Zelda Joy Cons? Pre orders sold out in minutes on Best Buy, Game Stop, Target, and now Amazon.

This is a problem of speculation becomes fact. It's happening WAY too much for Nintendo and really in general. People thought 3D All Stars was going to be some insane over the top collection or Paper Mario would change back to it's classical RPG roots from 20 years ago.

@GuerrillaBoy_ Sadly their only options are steam and Nintendo and even that's questionable since Nintendo or showed how the re re re release of street fighter 2 censored e Hondas stage cause the rising sun is offensive. And steam has their issues with censorship eight now.

$60 rereleases of decades-old games, Mario collection available for only 6 months, garbage online service, blind antagonism towards the romhack/fan-mod scenes, it all sucks! Nintendo isn't our friend! Even if they do give us some of the best games, these choices invite criticism.

@ReallyBadTeeth @KenzieMunchkin @NintendoAmerica I have. Also, city folk is a bad example of how to mitigate this issue- The villagers would say one unique thing per outdoors/indoors cycle (excluding "pings"), then just repeat a line of dialogue until you went indoors and outdoors again.

@itsLumBoy @HatokTalk Actually that’s something. If you want to play portably but have joycon drift Nintendo expect you to pay an additional £35 for a working one. If both controllers are screwed then that’s £70 they’d expect you to spend fixing a well know problem

@DougWalker76 1: Yes. Why NOT emulate every game? It’s cheaper, usually more graphically advanced, and you have more options to customize your experience. To stop piracy you must provide a better service than the pirates, which Nintendo doesn’t.

@MrGameandsad I'm making an animation pilot and unfortunately can't add you in because your character contains copyright from Nintendo, in which I don't want any trouble from them.

@vgmobster @lilal75775 What is this history revisionism? People complained about WW/TP as well, which were $50. Spyro and Crash remakes feature three games with massive graphical overhauls and they're both $40. Nintendo are the only ones getting away with this because their fanbase have no standards.

@MatLewi5 @GamesForAll51 @Gamer39Geeky I was able to play One X games while it downloaded Series X optimized games instead of needing to redownload or manually transfer saves, etc. The dashboard was familiar and all my logins worked without issue. And of course Switch is the only place to get Nintendo.

@NintendoAmerica Thought the whole point of a PRE ORDER was to secure an item and let the manufacturer know how much to release and who has reserved one. That alone would take care of the scalping problem. When 4000 units get bought that can’t be resold, the consumers AND Nintendo win.
