    Tried to load up Forza Horizon 5 on my laptop but it said it could log into Xbox Live, and afterwards checked DownDetector to see it is having issues as well as PSN and Nintendo. Anyone else having issues with Live?

  • AquaOrtus Aqua @ Marquet (@AquaOrtus) reported

    I'm surprised the Nintendo eshop was up long enough to get all 3 Ace Attorney Games for the 3ds w/o much issue... and now when I leav for like 10 minutes and return to try to get the DLC it gives me the middle finger. Thanks Nintendo lmao

    @Younesodb1 @NintendoAmerica It's server capacity causing the issues. People getting Switch's for Christmas and making new accounts, etc.
