@NintendoAmerica Fix your game

@B4dd1eAng3l And that's one of the big problems of that game: IT COST YOU 60 BUCKS. If it's a free to play game, it's okay and even fun to play. The ironic part? Nintendo was one who launched the Nintendo Seal of Approval to prevent things like this.

@SaleckDragon Pokemon is way, way too important to Nintendo's Christmas line-up to reject for anything short of a crash.

@B4dd1eAng3l But Pokémon has something the others don't, Pokémon is from Nintendo. I don't hate Nintendo, I do LOVE all of the Fire Emblem games, the "Link" part in my nick is from Zelda. But what I do hate with my heart, is when people ignore the problem just because it's Nintendo..

Graphically it is a mess though. Framerate and resolution issues are things you have to accept when playing on the switch, and I get that, but there are a lot of other little things that bug me too. It's not as polished as it could/should be, especially for Nintendo/Game Freak.

@NintendoUK I had it just simply crash on me earlier sound but no picture very strange you think they would have sorted out the bugs

@Brute_Basher Idk, can you really compare Cyberpunk to Pokemon though? CP2077 had tons of backstage issues and needed to go to several platforms on top of being the company’s like fifth game ever. Pokemon is a Nintendo exclusive and they definitely have the ability/money to do better.

I get it, the number of employees on a project doesn't indicate a games quality. But it's clear Nintendo rushed the project out before the team could get all the bugs worked out. Not saying Sonic Frontiers is perfect either, but at least some issues for all 3 can be patched.

@CallMeEleanora @NintendoAmerica Well, scarlet and Violet are out. I've heard they have some flaws. Is it still a me problem?

@Gaming_Forte Thats dope and bless that Giver but of all the systems to buy when Pokémon running like dogshit. Nintendo doesn't need anymore money until they fix Pokémon! Real Tlk

@verticallybeige @jackofspadesman The Problem is, Nintendo has money to pay good devs. And they don't do apparently. This is a nogo

@ChloeWoellhof @BusinessInsider But it is true it can't grow. With every new tech they make there are multiple issues with them. The tech back then never had issues. I mean I can still play my Nintendo.... So you can't say it grows. Specially with how today devs are. I mean if they are as good as you claimed

@recycledNPC @kitty__komplex Obviously this is the fix Nintendo needs to hear about. #speedupthewindmill

(@charasan) reported
I keep harping on this because Nintendo is a huge company and will just ignore the problem until they leisurely half-assed fix it, then pretend it never happened. Don't let them do that. They don't all turn the tables like No Man's Sky did.

@ericIdle2k @NikoMueller It's not about games I never imagined. I see what shows up on Gamepass, PS Plus or Nintendo online. They all give you plenty of games to play for endless amount of hours. I just can't force myself to play a game JUST because it's on a service.

@engineers_feed only smaller things. ive broken: 2 nintendo 3dses, a monitor, a 43" TV, at least 2 windows and a partridge in a pear tree.

@Anakinsky19 Hi! It is not normal! It should support both handheld or pro controller just fine. It is actually one of the things that Nintendo’s QA checks 🤔. I’m so sorry you are having this issue. Have you tried disconnecting the pro controller and restarting the console?

@GinjaNinjaGamer @hollownora @munosnail Knowing Nintendo, they’ll probably patch only this and leave every other glitch

(@Skyoptika) reported
@eevee They let BotW cook for years longer than a normal game (and boy was it worth it) so somehow I think this must be a problem inside either TPC or GF, not Nintendo. So, really, I think a lot of the displeasure aimed at those two is rather justified.

i love nintendo games too but we do not need to come to the defense of GameFreak. this is not an isolated incident they’ve has trouble optimizing and shipping a polished product since Gold & Silver. they deserve to be dunked on right now maybe this leads to improvements

@Nintendo Clear problems with the Scarlet/Violet that MUST be addressed for it to be considered at least a decent game: •Horrific performance issues(fps ranging from 20 to 2) •Lazy untextured terrain •Bug fixing the game •The pokemon don't touch during fisical atacks (Fixed in Arceus)

@AliciaMarieBODY I did that! Was Alakazam3000 for YEARS until I decided to rebrand to Zamandius to avoid any possible legal trouble with Nintendo/GameFreak if I ever got big.

@Charalanahzard Nintendo's lack of modern hardware on release has been a problem pretty much from game cube on. Planned obsolescence gone mad.

@NintendoAmerica I really hope you guys fix the game it runs like trash. Why? Why would anyone let this game be released this way .
-
JoeLink
(@joe_laddo) reported
@B4dd1eAng3l So the game has errors even in those crucial points... If I were one the people who purchased the game, I'll even sue Nintendo for this. They ask a lot of money really often, just to offer a beta game.

I have a confession: While I absolutely 100% understand why people are disappointed with Nintendo and all the glitches, I lowkey like when I stumble across a glitch in a game 😌 I find it entertaining

@asgardianson @NintendoAmerica I've been lucky and haven't had any glitches with Scarlett, but I hope that they're working on the fixes for everyone that is having issues!

@SunsetMiamiTTV @MrSinnoh In what way is clarifying that they made a poor design by choice over a glitch on accident defending Nintendo/Game Freak?
