After playing Splatoon 3 for an extended period of time, the game really should have had another month or two of development. The bugs and netcode issues are inexcusable by Nintendo standards.

NINTENDO FIX THE MUDMOUTHS

Mario, yup
(@NyxRetr0) reported
The only thing that’s been a real disappointment regarding Splatoon 3 so far is how horrible the disconnects and communication errors are now. This isn’t a “haha bad Nintendo online thing” because Splatoon 2 was never THIS bad afaik. Hope they can fix this soon.

@CoDeeTVS If you're the crafty sort there's tutorials online about how to fix it without having to wait forever for Nintendo to do it for you.

@Tyrocks12ty Oh I didn’t have a problem with the Nintendo direct. I just said Sony and Xbox games don’t appeal to me much.

@libera1_gamer @MldGhost Do you know why they do that? Here's what you don't know because you didn't read the Brazilian documents from the regulators over there. Xbox can't compete in sales with Sony or Nintendo so they are leaving the hardware market. They want to be a service only, like Netflix.

@MojangStatus @MojangSupport I have an issue with the Minecraft Marketplace for the Nintendo Switch. On two switches it’s given “Invalid session (Try restarting your game).” Truthfully i’ve restarted my game, checked for corrupt data, reinstalled 3 times, reached out to Nintendo support, emailed Minecraft..

@NintendoAmerica I am begging you to fix your servers. Grizz is completely unplayable for me so theres no way for me to make extra cash other than constant turf wars :/ #Splatoon3

I LOVE Splatoon 3. What I would give if Nintendo Online could be GOOD!!!! It sucks that I play on 2tick servers and constant "network error" 😤

@TheOtherAriel The comparison to animal crossing simply stops at the premise. Animal crossing is simply a superior game that didn't rely on other Nintendo characters to sell the game and most of all Is a finished game. Om sure in time it will be better but for now it's very broken

@nintendo_novice Pretty much, I'm not saying Nintendo is perfect ,but no release enough Mario games is the last of thier issues, if it even is one.

@mikegalvin_ @TarZangief Nintendo's network switch would be dial-up only, and it would say "DNS Error" aloud if there was a problem

@SmellyCandle42 The convenience of having everything portably is tempting, but between storage issues and the fact that I don't trust Nintendo with anything surrounding the internet I'll stick to physical. Also I never use the Switch as a handheld so the original point doesn't matter to me

I’ve gotten like 10 connection errors just in the past 3 and a half hours, three in a row. I can’t even play a full match. Nintendo please fix your Splatoon servers for Christ’s sake

@ItsGlowl I feel like it would be cool if they did a pre-order only plush, and 1/4082 orders will be shiny. The issue with that is cost of production, because they’d mass produce way less of the shiny versions. That being said, its nintendo. They have money, they can do it.

@Spinez_ Oh, for sure. Everything is totally discombobulated at the current time. Splatoon's matchmaking was poor to begin with, and these launch issues only worsen the problems present. Carrying teams is harder now than ever. Hopefully things are sorted out soon, but this is Nintendo. 🫡

Well figured out why I wasn't getting cash or chunks from Salmon Run. My game is bugged AF. Currently reinstalling at the behest of #nintendo support and hoping that will fix it. Anyone else run into this? #Splatoon3

@ninehalo369 @IGN Yup, now that Halo’s gone downhill what do they have to compete with Nintendo and PlayStation? Gears of War and Forza? Maybe Fable? I struggle to find a reason to care about Xbox outside of them trying to buy their way to the top. Gamepass is a glorified rental service...
