@PownicMania5000 You are right! There are other games that should be in development. At least Zelda fans are getting a game. However, I think an issue is with BOTW 2, Nintendo hasn't really been transparent with the development of the game. There is so much we don't know about it. Since we -

@MarceCloud_Prod oh no absolutely its much more important to have good internet (calling Nintendo was dumb which is why i look back and think its so funny HJFHJDF) but like... nintendo REALLY does need servers.. its a genuine problem.

@Lumpimp Music slaps hard and i dont think i have found a track i dislike yet. Will have to wait if it tops the other games osts. The performance issues really bug me. Some areas get real choppy and hard to look at. I love the Nintendo Switch!

@JazzyWasseh here's the thing that drives me wild. so everyone seems to blame Nintendo for Splatoon internet stuff and not their actual service providers??? I made my mom bully Comcast and eventually I got Splatoon running consistently stable with my home wifi. Issues are VERY rare.

Looking at Kirby's Dream Buffet local play. Lag still manages to happen with people right near each other. I know wireless connection is not the most stable, but ffs Nintendo the wireless stuff needs something proper

@BanjoKaStuey Oh, for sure. It’s one of Nintendo’s best. I can’t believe it’s 11 years old!! 😰 With all the issues surrounding digital content lately, it makes me think of (the end of) the Nintendo eShop - and how the subscription service is worse 😔 and what the next system will be like.

(@lawchan89) reported
@Lewchube (1/2) It’s less an issue with development taking so long and more the issue of Nintendo’s promotional strategies for Zelda games, or lack thereof. When they should drop little tidbits of info throughout the production process, they instead wait to dump all the info at once.

@StephenSeanFord I don't think it's a coincidence that Nintendo with a lot of things, Microsoft with Halo, and practically every game that was NOT service first, hasn't been able to have the same drip feed as those that STARTED as service games.

@cultofthelamb please fix the bugs or release updates on Nintendo Switch please. I’m not able to play, tho. Game Stuck before a ritual. Game is crashing during crusade. Sometimes the screen blinks during a crusade. Furthermore, fix the bug and release Portuguese language.

Piracy is always ok if the company does not maintain not just a way to get the content in question but a convenient way to get it. Nintendo Fans, "just buy an originally copy for a 5000% markup" does not count. I would also extend that **** to broken games such as World At War.

@24Kssb Really hard between Ultimate & Project M PM is sick and has tons of cool stuff, but if Ultimate was in the spotlight like that then maybe Nintendo would actually keep fixing issues (like balancing Steve for example) so idk

@BulbaWhat98 I trust the game’s development isn’t in vain. I actually predict another delay, (which isn’t a problem because honestly a Zelda game is better off delayed) but I’m also not Nintendo. If there is to be a delay Nintendo needs to announce this soon.

@JPSWITCHMANIA They need to just bring GB/GBC/GBA to Nintendo Switch Online add that to the premium service and I would actually pay for it. Too limited currently with N64 and Genesis.

@Vigilante_Blade @El_Omar2203 @nintendolife Not to be "that guy" but tweets like the one you made are part of the problem in the Nintendo fandom. Alot of people will take it too seriously. The best thing to do going forward is to try and not provoke them 👍👍

hey, @THQNordic, i am currently reviewing ‘Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?’ on nintendo switch and twice in two sessions so far the software has crashed and force closed with an error message - thought it was worth your attention before it’s launch on the system.
