@MysticSushii @IntroSpecktive I mean yea but cloud save data should still be an option in the event it gets stolen or broken especially for a main Nintendo series game like Pokémon

@RaeGun2k I knowww right, like I can understand the control scheme hindering and putting people off it -- I really wish Nintendo could consider a re-release on the Switch, which might finally address those issues somewhatttt. But yeah for people who did play it, it was a real gem 💖

Nintendo games are once again in the news for preservation of them being an issue (DSiWare being delisted on 3DS shop) Company that makes deliberately limited amounts of physical copies: For some reason we will act like it's our time to shine

@J708289669 Nintendo got the monopoly over the video game industry because the others fell from the video game crash. Until Sega did what Nintendon't.

@Jugglamaggot @MortalKombat Yo, I just found this thread and I've been having the same issue! I can easily find a match on my PS4 version of MK11 but for some reason I've haven't found a single match on my Nintendo Switch.

@time_pizzer @CullBear55 @semifreqsonic and I love when mouthbreathing sanic fans dig as hard as they can for singular bugs in Nintendo games as a cope for how every 3D sanic game since SA2 is a broken and unplayable trash fire.

@AnimationFan3 @ZiagoT25 I'll list one thing for each, currently: Nintendo has portability. Xbox has gamepass. PS has VR. You do realise that if exclusives didn't exist they'd have to innovate in other ways. The subscription service would get better and online would likely be free.

my immediate hunch is that this is some sort of glitch or back-end error and not an intentional delisting, as Nintendo doesn't typically pull things without advance notice

@Jessguy22 Try calling Nintendo and set up a talk with someone. PlayStation is going to let me send in my broken PS3. Apparently customer service is coming back!

@mariosonic500 @NinEverything It seems like DSiWare games that were released in 2009-2011 had some security issues which lets hackers exploit the 3DS easier Although I don’t know why Nintendo isn’t just letting it go, they’ve already discontinued the thing

@PKSparkxx I think that's mainly a Nintendo Switch issue. You'd have to see what other versions of the game do in those regards.

(@duckinweebdude) reported
@Gmaniacalt Big reason why a lot fans are begging devs to make good rollback netcode the standard for online. Arcsys said they’ll have that for their future games I think but sometimes you get studios like Capcom or Nintendo where the fans fix the online for free then they shut it down

Nobody is speaking up about it since nobody is playing your game anymore. @NintendoAmerica @MojangSupport Minecraft dungeons crashes so unbelievably often it’s not even funny. Just once I’d love to hop on and enjoy the game. Now the base game content is crashing. Ridiculous...fix

@koala_heist Nah mine hasn't started drifting but its definitely a known problem with the Joycons unfortunately 😕 I believe you could reach out to Nintendo of America to see if they can do repairs or you could just invest in a new set. They're a little pricey tho 😩

@KingGeoshi64 That's what I said. Nintendo and Racjin dipped after London leaving Sega to develop the series which might be the problem

@tjohansen98 @jinjo360 In other words, no one would be complaining if Smash 4 had had less FE characters in it's roster, seeing most of them return for Ultimate. FE is now considered by Nintendo to be up there with their bigger IPs, so the issue with Byleth is honestly just Nintendo fans in denial.

@LineGutter That's where my issue lies. What I want to pay and what I can currently afford are far enough from each other that you could buy a new Nintendo Switch. @_@

@NintendoAmerica any idea why my son’s Minecraft on switch won’t load? It won’t even left him hit the play button. Other profiles can just not his all of the sudden. I’ve got a pretty heart broken mine crafter on my hands.

@tweethue Have an HDMI sync box. With HDMI switching turned off, it keeps switching to my Nvidia Shield on HDMI 3, my Nintendo Switch dock on HDMI 2 (with no Switch in it) and will not switch to HDMI 1 despite my Logitech Harmony Hub sending the HDMI 1 IR signal. How to fix?

@Dankcakes_art And Nintendo refuses to fix it, and instead wants you to spend like $60-$80 on a controller
