    @NintendoCanada We have followed the steps online (and still have 68Go available), but can't seem to download a previously purchased game. Sometimes it tells us it's server problems other times download just won't go trough. It's not appearing on home screen either. HELP!

    Am I the only one having problems with the Nintendo eShop? I either can't access it or when I do and go download a game I bought it says it started but once I exit it doesn't appear in the home screen? I hope I'm not coming off as an idiot with this. 😔 #NintendoSwich

    it took a while to even get the redownload to happen. I eventually did it, but now it's telling be I need to open the software to play it, which I do. I can't get the eShop open, now. The internet connection is fine, and Nintendo is saying there's no server status issues. >>

    @ScottGandhi @RogueCompany Dahlia’s Objection is still glitched, at least on nintendo Switch. Firing it makes the game lag/glitch out. I’ve heard of this issue for a few months, and it still exists, at least on the Switch.
