  • TheConnorRentz Connor Rentz (@TheConnorRentz) reported

    @NintendoAmerica I'm logged in and it just displays the regular page. I can't see my results. : ( Is anyone else having this issue?

  • jay1qt Julia Thomas (@jay1qt) reported

    @PS5StockAlertUK @DheuvVadgama Purchased a PS5 from Game today, only went in to buy a Nintendo game, I just asked and there was stock so I do not think they are announcing getting Drops any more due to all the problems this passed year. So if you are passing any shop just ask if they have stock. Good luck.

  • nahobinhoe ♥︎ (@nahobinhoe) reported

    is anyone else having trouble getting your nintendo year review thing 😓

  • sylphy_smm Sylphy (@sylphy_smm) reported

    How are people seeing the nintendo year in review? I keep getting an error :(

  • Trin_Lyn Ty (He/They) 🏳️‍🌈 💥 (@Trin_Lyn) reported

    @TLGsupport @ThunderLotus I understand that it's an issue with Nintendo but considering the last "update" on the progress of the update was 7 hours ago I'm irritated. At this rate Japan (who's release was today) will be able to play the new update before switch users in the US.

  • peace1nspace bela (@peace1nspace) reported

    I am upset that custom robo, the entire reason I bought the switch online expansion pass, is still not available to play how hard is it for nintendo to upload n64 roms to the service--I literally just want to play my stupid epic toy robot game online

  • In_the_Console2 🦖Juggernaut(J-Gon)PX🎄#PokemonBDSP#MMX9🖲️🎅🏻 (@In_the_Console2) reported

    @DazzlingDazzaD Mhm!! They were my childhood games; & got to play it on my Switch along with CTR via an eshop sale. & even replayed the Trilogy last year after beating Crash 4. Really was bliss getting to play the remastered PS1 crash games on my Nintendo Switch

  • kory_lindy012 Kory Linderman (@kory_lindy012) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Just a reminder that Nintendo absolutely can’t get anything right online. Error message every time.

  • maxterdragon Mike (@maxterdragon) reported

    @NintendoAmerica @AnimalRoyale Please fix the N64 games.

  • SolidNopeRope Everett "the Eggman" Robotnik (@SolidNopeRope) reported

    @Carl_Sagan42 It got deleted because Nintendo is using these courses to make an algorithm in order to make future 2d Mario games, perhaps a "rogue like" Mario game, and ""glitch"" levels aren't something they want in their algorithm.

  • maxterdragon Mike (@maxterdragon) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Please fix the N64 games.

  • JamesNe47270869 James Nelson (@JamesNe47270869) reported

    @Ealexcantero @CrashBandicoot That because there busy doing More Call of Duty and they got nothing to ask Nintendo but doing a recent business practices instead so with that covered so yeah crash bandicoot is rumors to join smash for whole time.

  • lamp856 Joe West-Taylor (@lamp856) reported

    @Carl_Sagan42 Maybe Nintendo hates that thwomp glitch.

  • Deoxys48 ❄Deoxys48 @Galar (@Deoxys48) reported

    @JosNamesnotJo2 More like a Nintendo problem, not Square problem.

  • alxxana Ho-Ho Aly❄️ (@alxxana) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Is anyone else having problems with the site right now .

  • patrick50351663 paatick (@patrick50351663) reported

    @NintendoAmerica it keeps giving me an error 😦

  • TheTemptressAva 🎁 𝓐𝓿𝓪'𝓼 𝓦𝓸𝓻𝓴𝓼𝓱𝓸𝓹 🎁 2.5K (@TheTemptressAva) reported

    @QuietDesu because Nintendo wants to profit off their dumb Joycon drift issues 😑

  • Dave19Brown83 David Brown (@Dave19Brown83) reported

    @NintendoAmerica I think to those who keep getting crashed might have to upgrade your PC/Laptop, or get a new phone, or ditch your internet service for a better one. Nintendo wants accomplishments, not pity.

  • MegamanRA MegamanNG (@MegamanRA) reported

    Terrific. So not only did the Paper Mario game crash but I lost a lot of progress. Fortunately I did make a save state but honestly, I'm going to have to catch up. Thankfully it won't take me long either way. Thanks Nintendo. Seriously.

  • JamesNe47270869 James Nelson (@JamesNe47270869) reported

    @RyGoesPOP @CrashBandicoot Yeah you heard him in next 5 Years Nintendo will announce the Next Smash Game that rumor it will be Smash Reboot so I hate to tell you that crash is no where near gonna join soon since there gonna cut the Roster and content.

  • InsrtHandlHere D_II (@InsrtHandlHere) reported

    Underwhelmed, but at least it's something new from Nintendo? Fix your ****** online system instead

  • xmissbrie Briana🎄❄️ (@xmissbrie) reported

    @NintendoAmerica LINK IS BROKEN😤

  • crossingsamm santy sam🤶🏼 (@crossingsamm) reported

  • golillybe lil (@golillybe) reported

    I’m on a mission to resurrect my Super Nintendo (and PlayStation) . My mission is not working.

  • TCB_NYC TCB (@TCB_NYC) reported

    Oof, I really gotta contact Nintendo customer support to fix my account verification.

  • rollerdiscos nicole (@rollerdiscos) reported

    when i was 11 i got in trouble bc i stayed up until like midnight to read outsiders fanfic on my nintendo dsi web browser

  • bcbopstar Noah (bcbopstar) 🔮 (@bcbopstar) reported

    @Penkenarts This is through my eyes so take it what you will, but from what I understand it the input lag seems to be an issue, like I saw OOT have it. But I saw that the original also had some input lag so idk. Also online seemed pretty bad, but thats Nintendo online for ya. So overall, idk

  • jen_spider Jen (@jen_spider) reported

    ******, why not. I'm going to try and stream the nintendo indie world thing tomorrow. Don't expect these regularly I just, wanna stream real bad and am willing to take a risk with my laptop and its heat issues.

  • Connor94705265 Connor (@Connor94705265) reported

    @StefanEinarsso8 You need to login to your Nintendo account on the website

  • DevilsMilitia iain (@DevilsMilitia) reported
