@BlizzardCS What’s the status on getting things working on Nintendo Switch? I keep getting errors when trying to connect. It’s working on PC, but noticed there’s a queue which isn’t present on Switch.

@ImmortalDummy Yeah but what can you see from the trailer that makes it look low quality? Nothing, that’s your answer. That’s the problem with Nintendo fanboys, nothing will ever satisfy them.

@BauerdadVGC My issue is that I don’t think 2.5/month for a bunch of old games is worth it long term. Sure the 64 may be some people’s “golden era” of games, but even then comparing Nintendo’s online service to either Sony or Microsoft, $20/year seemed a good deal, not $50

That cotton boomerang guardian force port is one of the worst compilations on Nintendo Switch. The lag is real. I was wondering if people were exaggerating. It’s literally unplayable!

@tha_rami Lucky! When we tried, the Nintendo support would not help because the old Switch was still functional and hadn't been to their repair shop. They'd only do it for broken/lost devices 😡

@ForceinUnison I don't think it will happen because out of the three companies its sad to say but Nintendo is the one who listens to its fan base the least We we are going to speak with our wallets in this one. Its so easy to fix with a middle tier

Is anyone else having server issues on Nintendo Switch? My son can't connect.

@ChrisgamerST The problem is that if people do get it, (Which let's be honest idiots will,) Nintendo will think that the price is reasonable and will make more expensive and stupid choices going forward. $100 a year for their choice of games is not a good price.

@ShaNexxus @TylerIsANerd_ @DynamoSuperX Nintendo did not develop those games and I especially don't want to give them money. They are far past their production and sales run, the real developers won't see any of the money made from this service.

@MeruSensei LMAO, it would be a random *** buff like that! UpB1 fix would be HUGE. I traded Fsmash for Ftilt, so I would just want them to fix falling out of Fsmash. We're definitely gonna find out tomorrow how much Nintendo hates us. Hopefully, it's not the last patch.

@Blue_NightLight Same for me and MarioKart Tour also won't play. Looks line an error at Nintendo.

@_nemean Nintendo values their mediocre service like it is a ten course platter at a five star resturaunt, yet they offerring a 2 star meal for their 'services' Yet people will buy it, since they feel there is value here when objectively it isn't. Switch era may downspiral at this rate.

@CutieInkwell @FE_Heroes_EN This problem seems to concern all Nintendo mobile games, Pokémon Go has problems too. I hope it's not a major problem...

@netzwech @thebundeld They know and they don’t care. Contact Nintendo and get a refund like I did. They’re well aware of the issue and won’t blink.

@XecularO @TylerIsANerd_ @DynamoSuperX Nintendo has a subscription service they are selling that includes those games. You're still taking money away from Nintendo especially if you're pirating those games.

@GalacticPirate_ Now, spite? Maybe i could see it given how vocal Nintendo fans tend to be about saying they're gonna emulate what they don't feel buying, and when your whole community creates that kind of impression, that's when the problem comes in, but again, that's an assumption

@johnnythexxxiv @Taccm7 @NintendoAmerica Good for you! I like my games the way they are. If I really like one of the games on this extremely cheap service then I'll go and look for it- Which, by the way, any single one of the games offered is Definitely more expensive than the service as a whole. Not losing out.

@DanielMcArdle3 @TheNCSmaster @LonelyGoomba actually, it IS your dime, as well as your business. if millions of people pay for an insanely overpriced service, then Nintendo knows they can get away with overcharging people. down the line when there is a game or service that you actually do care about, it’s overpriced

Yeah why pay for nintendo's scam service when we can just emulate and pirate the games

On people working with Nintendo... this is a complicated issue. As Fizzi said, Nintendo ultimately created a sort of monopoly on who is even allowed to support our various communities. We could have had Twitch, Red Bull, Dr. Pepper, Major League Gaming and various other big...
