That cotton boomerang guardian force port is one of the worst compilations on Nintendo Switch. The lag is real. I was wondering if people were exaggerating. It’s literally unplayable!

@tha_rami Lucky! When we tried, the Nintendo support would not help because the old Switch was still functional and hadn't been to their repair shop. They'd only do it for broken/lost devices 😡

@Squall_Blade88 @FE_Heroes_EN For one moment, so close I uninstall the game. Unfortunately, this is a problem with all servers of mobile games of Nintendo, so I think just tomorrow this will fixed it. Probably, they give us some compensation.

@junge_roemer @Ki_Kumo @ModernVintageG yeah, but bad internet speeds are not an excuse for Nintendo to not improve their hardware/service

Yeah why pay for nintendo's scam service when we can just emulate and pirate the games

@ShaNexxus @TylerIsANerd_ @DynamoSuperX Nintendo did not develop those games and I especially don't want to give them money. They are far past their production and sales run, the real developers won't see any of the money made from this service.

Eduardo - Color Splash no Switch - 2022
(@Edd_Boo) reported
@AbraxLucario @ModernVintageG My country make little next to no difference to Nintendo about that. If we could make a change in Nintendo's mindset about better prices or service improvement this wouldn't bê necessary. For us at global South unfortunately d only markets that make a difference outside of Japan+

@netzwech @thebundeld They know and they don’t care. Contact Nintendo and get a refund like I did. They’re well aware of the issue and won’t blink.

@littlegee15 That's definitely on Nintendo's site because my Pokemon Masters game won't start, either and there were issues on Pokemon Go as well!

@HilemZelda @FaerghusM @FE_Heroes_EN I'm not getting that (at least not yet). Pokémon Masters and Dragalia Lost are giving me problems, but not FEH or even Pokémon GO. I don't really understand what is happening, and based on how long ago some people tweeted, IS and Nintendo have not noticed this yet.

@Deitylight @Sabrewoif People are upset that some commentators agreed to work with Nintendo for one of their online tournaments They're saying the commentators should have prioritized making a statement to Nintendo about the issues with the community, rather than get paid for the event

@triviafall Global outage apparently. Their mobile games servers are down, affecting all Nintendo mobile phone games. Frustrating!

I love the idea of the Nintendo Switch, and I have had fun with being able to take a home console on the go easily. However, Joy-Con issues have basically killed that feature for me. If I want to use my Switch like I use to, I’ll need to get more joy-cons, and the trust is gone

@MessianicBelief @EdvartVon The problem I’ve got with this sort of rhetoric is that it is because of people like you that Nintendo will always set their expectations incredibly low for any sort of nominal improvement in their systems, and they will always put re-released versions of games at $60 or more

@BlizzardCS What’s the status on getting things working on Nintendo Switch? I keep getting errors when trying to connect. It’s working on PC, but noticed there’s a queue which isn’t present on Switch.

DAN!

Weird how I'm seeing more people condemn Nintendo for setting a price for an extra, none required service than people who condemned Activision and Ubisoft for having a disgusting and insidious workplace culture

@johnnythexxxiv @Taccm7 @NintendoAmerica Good for you! I like my games the way they are. If I really like one of the games on this extremely cheap service then I'll go and look for it- Which, by the way, any single one of the games offered is Definitely more expensive than the service as a whole. Not losing out.

@BauerdadVGC My issue is that I don’t think 2.5/month for a bunch of old games is worth it long term. Sure the 64 may be some people’s “golden era” of games, but even then comparing Nintendo’s online service to either Sony or Microsoft, $20/year seemed a good deal, not $50

On people working with Nintendo... this is a complicated issue. As Fizzi said, Nintendo ultimately created a sort of monopoly on who is even allowed to support our various communities. We could have had Twitch, Red Bull, Dr. Pepper, Major League Gaming and various other big...

@CrispyToastYT @nintendolife Also I think it's understandable to download roms of games you can't even buy. Some people do it because they can't afford to spend thousands of dollars on Ebay. Nintendo has plenty of opportunities to solve this problem, but they fail at doing so like usual.

@soccer9001 Again it all comes back to consistency. If you opose something, then you don't support it. Very simple. And hey I'll grant you this. If vikki and the commentators have never once called Nintendo out for trying to sabotage the smash scene multiple times then I have no issue w/them

@ForceinUnison I don't think it will happen because out of the three companies its sad to say but Nintendo is the one who listens to its fan base the least We we are going to speak with our wallets in this one. Its so easy to fix with a middle tier
