@NintendoUK hi is there a way of escalating an issue not being dealt with properly by the 'support' section ? I have concerns about my personal data with the way replies are being received.

@The_H_Nickel @Daniexists6 @AidenRS139 You'd be focusing on Crash, not his company. Thatd be like saying im praising Nintendo's ****** business decisions if there was a character addition i liked

So can anyone with a nintendo switch help me? My switch refuses to connect to the internet (DNS name resolution failure) and no fix online has worked. I'm not going to factory reset it, either! I could use a wired connection to do my stuff, but a fix would really help :]

@theRealJayDub2 What's funny is GOW will come with every upgrade you could think of....yet it's 50$ and 39 pounds an equivalent to 53$. Metroid dread is 2d Slop....only 8 hours. 60$ and 60 pounds an equivalent to 83$$. You are trash if you continue to support Nintendo problem enablers!!!!

@1stsaintinferno Gow 2018 has sold almost more than the previous gow titles combined. Nintendo has a few titles reach astronomical attach rate numbers but theres a ton of others lagging behind

@MikeTomGotJokes @PlayStation Ok, now that's an issue we can debate. See that argument actually makes sense to me. I suppose compared to Nintendo exclusives which have a high attach rate, Sony exclusives fare worse. I'd still argue that not having exclusives deters a percentage of people from consoles.

Overall, if Nintendo is going to demand to make another Smash game, I would much prefer a reboot that attends on doing their own thing seperately from other Smash installments. And also to reset the speculation that has gone god-awful due how broken it was.

@MorganAndAHalf @NintendoAmerica In the first game all the characters base models so face shape and body shape were based off the first two characters that were made with minor alterations and then exceptions given to a few characters after noticing the issue so that might be why you’re seeing that

@FameEnt2k Nah, Day n date don't work for Sony business strategy. MS made a pivot because xbox players weren't buying games, they had to go the GP service route n do day m date. That's not the case for Sony and Nintendo.

@BDoodle13 @TheNCSmaster @DynamoSuperX It's your money to waste as you see fit, and it's really not all that much at least compared to other services, this issue is that attitudes like that will never incentivise Nintendo to do better, to adopt better consumer practices

@LeakyPandy Interesting but not never happening IMO. Sony and Microsoft are trying to sell now than usual software. That’s why they use PC as another platform. Nintendo has never had a or problem selling their 1st party software l.

I was looking through some old Nintendo magazines out of nostalgia and got stuck on an pretty old October/Halloween special issue that was mostly about Majora's Mask. When I played it, I felt that the game really fit the atmosphere of Halloween and the cold, dark winter season.

For me, the issue was never if Disney would allow Sora. It was if Nintendo could afford it. Again, I blame how the American Disney branch, which is the home pillar and all, led me to not believe that it could happen without a price.

Incidentally, nintendo seriously expect people to pay like 60 quid for their online service now when they still don't have a shopping cart for their online store. what a joke.

@saesama @ModernVintageG @RipleyLacross I saw "Cloud" edition and thought FF7, Cloud not streaming. I don't believe Nintendo's online service can support that and the Switch is bottle necked badly in regards to network speed. (wired or not) So I will not be renting these games. Animal Crossing is fun tho.
