@YorsTrooli_Aori It sure would be nice to see them again. Pearl and Marina are basically confirmed. If they could keep the OG Agent 3, and even make them Captain, then SURELY Nintendo could do more with 4 and 8... Plus, it would make great fan service... 👀

@PotionPermit been having an issue on Nintendo switch that everything I cook doesn’t ever show up in my inventory. I’m able to buy food and have it show up but when I cook it’s just gone. It’s been happening since the last update.

@TwoPointStudios Working on 3-stars slowly, but Nintendo Switch issues still causes random crashes at inconvenient times. (Crash reporting is on, so I hope it helps somehow, haha.)

@KRcanondorf Why not both? Oh I see, Luaisy isn't your cup of tea bc Nintendo didn't do anything about it 😓 But at least that ship isn't a problematic ones btw (Daisalina and Waluaisy also good 👌👌), only the problem is Nintendo didn't care about Luaisy 💀💀

@CountBleck92 yeah tbh i dont like the idea of them rewarding nintendo for a game that's not even fully finished yet :// not to mention all of the errors we're still having to this day

@JoanLeinhart @TigerCA123 Nintendo switch service is extremely expensive and almost doesn't have nothing good PS plus had the bad idea of separating the service into categories (Essential, extra and premium), And each one being extremely expensive compared to the game pass.

@BenBlazing99 @VictoriamRecord @NintendoAmerica It suffers from lots of technical graphical issues on original hardware with the day-1 patch. Souece: My copy came in early. Legends Arceus didn't run this bad & I think this game uses the same engine or a modified version of it so what the hell?

@twistaspin @NintendoAmerica I never had any performance issues when I played Pokemon Shield so I doubt I'll have any with Pokemon Scarlet.

@NintendoCanada @NintendoAmerica @SplatoonNA Day 65 (66 with Splatfest) of asking for a fix for the “not enough players” error on Splatoon 3. The fact that I have had this game since release and still can’t even play one match. And no word on a fix or a refund. Wild.

@Real_Pareidolia Play like Paldadins or Overwatch if you want a competitive team shooter with better netcode, Nintendo has had months to fix this and hasn't so it's unlikely to ever get fixed.

@sonikuenjoyer Just because they sell to Nintendo doesn't mean Sonic becomes Mario. That being said, my problem with that is Nintendo and their strict *** IP protection.

@pteravictoria I never ever rage in a way that's destructive. However, most controllers aren't made to last and will eventually wear out. I've had lots of buttons just stop functioning, not to mention the issue of Nintendo's "Pro" controllers ALWAYS getting drift on the left stick.

@VictoriamRecord @BenBlazing99 I'd love to hope that these issues could be ironed out, but I honestly think this is a hardware issue. The Nintendo Switch is using hardware that was current back in 2015. Hopefully we'll see the next Switch in a couple of years. I'm surprised Hogwarts Legacy isn't cloud ver.

(@Lor_StarCutter_) reported
@RyanRibbity @sonicforces I think the problem that cartoony mascot characters just need more respect to their names in these mainstream gaming places. Nintendo has been relegated to being shoved into the mickey mouse baby game awards corner since like the G4 days.

@Kaizokuman @scorchedprince Yea that’s the excuse we all said but other companies and games have come out with just as much in the span of time since CoviD more so than Nintendo. We haven’t gotten a big First party game Like Odyssey or BOTW since the switches release. That’s a problem.

@pejic839 @ShitpostGate 1. It sucks because Nintendo’s is 15 years behind in online service capabilities and don’t even have play invites or voice chat. 2. It costs $20-$50 per year and is another “small subscription” amongst many others.
