Hello @NianticHelp , since 2 weeks my Pikmin Bloom app won't log me, when I chose my Google or my Nintendo account (I tried both), it just load never ending, have you ever encounter this issue ?

@Eon_servo That's your problem, you choose to see everything as bullshit. Not much of an oddsmaker, are ya? Bullshit is a longshot but when it pays off? 27-1. Do you think Harry Potter is bullshit? That wasn't expected to be the hit it became. Before Nintendo they buried Atari games.

@Peytendo_YT @Respawn @PlayApex They do not improve it every season. Over like 2 months ago respawn found the issues of frame issues on consoles. They fixed it for everyone else except for Nintendo players.

@antdude92 Most of it’s Japan only. I think besides the game and its included stuff, we got an air freshener, pogs, a few Nintendo Power issues, and mention of the game in a few official Nintendo books.

@kyleshevlin I have this same problem and I invested in Nintendo ringfit (if you have a switch) which sometimes tricks my brain that’s it’s playing rather than working out. I also have a VR set for the same thing. Doesn’t always work but helps 💪🏻

@NintendoAmerica Hi! I'm not sure if you know this, but there's a bug in your "Smash Brothers Ultimate" game where Sora is so ******* broken that your game isn't worth playing ****

@NintendoAmerica Looks like Byleth is the main Villain, I guess Sothis used him/her as a Puppet. I guess Fanboys of Crash and Dante are ready for some Payback

@Chinchillazllla @Sp3ctralFossa I hate it so much! I have so much trouble with the XBox controller because I grew up on Nintendo consoles! And like I use the freaking Xbox controller for PC gaming, aaaaah!

@DAllpress87 Hello! I am sorry you're having issues with this. Have you happened to have been in touch with Nintendo? They'll replace any faulty parts if you have the receipt. TY - Eilish

@Kristodynamics @rwvessol @Chinchillazllla Well, the PS controller borrowed a ton of elements from the Snes one This becomes more apparent when you read about Nintendo and Sony's broken partnership

@yggdrasilsaltar @Jestin456 I would not want any wackazoid gimmicks, I just want another deeply technical arcade racer. Problem being, I doubt Nintendo could reclaim the same level of tech that GX had, considering a lot of it was accidental.

My Nintendo switch dock keeps making this weird loud noise when I have it plugged in. No joycon drift but hey at least I get some noise I have no idea how to fix permanently.

@BushytailSkwirl The first DS Lite I bought had a problem with it's d-pad which I found out was REALLY common with the black models for some unknown reason. I returned it in exchange for a silver one and it's worked fine since. Nintendo can't seem to get d-pads perfect themselves anymore...?

@GeneticJen @Chinchillazllla Uphold US Intellectual Property law, which led to the industry standardizing bottom face button as confirm in all but select regions, just Asia/Japan really Nintendo while being first, created a market in which they are now the outlier on this particular issue of button placement

@hellberia @BoundingComics The issue here is that the Nintendo Switch format is simply better. There's more room for artistic content. The squarish PS4 area requires dumb choices, made worse by the stupid blue bar along the top.

@Tesco Hi kirsty. Thanks for the reply. My daughters nintendo joy-con. Specifically the left hand one has stopped working. I went to the batley tesco and the customer service lady informed me that I needed a reference number from the tesco helpline as it was bought in August.

@spaztron64 May I also afford myself to find that move very questionable at least? I hope this will make more people open their eyes on that issue. Another of those "the author's word vs. their fans'" case. Following Nintendo's path isn't what I call reasonable in my vocabulary.

@XanderXCIV @Chinchillazllla Just don't remap anything and get used to it. It's really not that hard to Switch between them. You're just making more trouble for yourself. Also this is how the Nintendo diamond button layout has been Ever since the SNES. It would be weirder for them to randomly change it

@normalmar Switch is the easy platform to buy across region. Sony is fine too but if for some reason it is CERO Z (like Tsukihime R) they will require a Japanese credit card and you're ******. No such problem with Nintendo, they don't give a **** if kids buy an 18+ game with a point card

@DikediJoseph @getonthestiix Xbox it's outselling Nintendo in Unite State and Switch doesn't have any stock problem When PS5 was selling more was because SX didn't have stock and the proof of that it because Sx was sold out Also, MS used around 5M to replace Xbox one server blades for SX for Xcloud

@ay_nasir Get the Steam Deck obviously. Nintendo needs to get their stuff together. No Browser, No VC, No Messaging, No Folders? Like sheesh, we waited 5 years for Virtual Console GameCube, we got broken overpriced Subscription n64

@Chinchillazllla You know that Microsoft didn't get into the gaming business until 2000, right? Why is this such an issue to you & several other fools? Spoiler, Nintendo has been in the gaming business for far longer!

@PatStaresAt, was listening to the tech support story on the podcast and thought to shed some light. With Sony it's likely you either had a guy who didn't care or they hadn't been empowered/trained to deviate from the standard scripts, which is a corporate issue. The Nintendo 1)

@HeroFoxTail Well not everybody does the live service model. But games have not been released complete in about 20 years. However some Publishers like Nintendo take a lot of pride in their IP's. And would not let one of their big name games come out incomplete.
