Nintendo Switch Online Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MagnetoErgoSum Chris Dan (@MagnetoErgoSum) reported

    @Helexzura So i recently learned that SEGA is a portmanteau for "Service Games," and got their start as a company that would ship games to deployed members of the armed services. Also Nintendo (before the card company they'd prefer you to learn about) got their start as "love hotels" 😬😬😬

  • BizTechia BizTechia (@BizTechia) reported

    @BigBullCap Someone from @Forbes wrote a piece saying that Meta should acquire Sony + Coinbase + Nintendo + OpenSea. I would probably switch Coinbase for Kraken (regulatory issues). But makes sense to me

  • bigsmoke1683 Smokey (@bigsmoke1683) reported

    @Adam_Dankson @Torments_US @KeanuIsMyDad I stopped playing online on ps5 and my ps4 pro the online community dont use mics to communicate at all they rather play single player games. Its a shame that nintendo online service is ****** but they have better online games than Sony does that makes no sense

  • boying Boying (ᜊᜓᜌᜒᜅ᜔) (@boying) reported

    a Switch Pro Controller that I got last December just got replaced by Nintendo (via authorized third party service center) with a brand new unit just now…for FREE. 😬

  • RoseSilicon Pizza Delivery Irida (Rose) (@RoseSilicon) reported

    @DoctorDenise @iamahesa Nintendo should have pulled and Apple and just say that instead of saying “we haven’t found any problems” And then backtracking years later

  • kitty22_forest Zeldadisney (@kitty22_forest) reported

    @NintendoUK Nintendo you gone broken🍫my💔🥺

  • loudmouthlyric Moo Girl 🐄🥛 (@loudmouthlyric) reported

    @dancing_gamer4k @Nintendo I guess it would completely crash the online server since it can’t already hold a feather

  • VtrDenis DenisVTR (@VtrDenis) reported

    @NintendoAmerica @RockstarGames They never cared about the technical side of their games. All their old games are very bad and have a lot of bugs. They are releasing patches for their Worsening I don't know why you bought them, they won't fix them

  • Ninja_Crash Crash🌈 (@Ninja_Crash) reported

    @littlemoogles_ @MCPotion21 @NinEverything The joycon issue was discovered. It's an easy fix, and all nintendo has to do is add some padding to the joycon. Something that can be easily slotted in into the assembly line

  • NerdWebFiles Lost Sage (@NerdWebFiles) reported

    Actually this is a large problem. The stupid Console war epidemic gets so many talent studios on both sides reviewed so harshly. Difference in how Nintendo games are reviewed are very evident

  • godofwahhhhhh Pejic839 (@godofwahhhhhh) reported

    @C0deEve @Lucinator_14 @Mii_Mario_ I can tell you know that both of my Xbox controllers have pretty bad drift And at the very least Nintendo has a free repair service for theirs so if my joycons drift I send them in and they’re back in less than 2 weeks

  • TdfZee Zee TDF (@TdfZee) reported

    Nintendo switch I accidentally deleted my Nintendo switch settings is it another way that you could help me to fix it because I’ve been trying to fix it after two days

  • d3_books d3_books (@d3_books) reported

    Yeah no problem Nintendo, it was airing to completion was Shinkenger so I'm just gonna say:

  • sapernova123 SuperNova999 (@sapernova123) reported

    @AuraNyaw you see now Nintendo temporarily activating the wii servers again only to "fix" that part with an update

  • RoseSilicon Pizza Delivery Irida (Rose) (@RoseSilicon) reported

    @DanielMcArdle3 To be fair, this was back when those same Nintendo fans were into the Wii and ****. I wish Nintendo in general made a more powerful switch, but yeah now we have an opposite problem where people don’t know how to just enjoy games.

  • OS_DEVON Devon Ortiz (@OS_DEVON) reported

    @NintendoUK Fix that.

  • SocialistStrike 🧡Socialist💛Strike💚 (@SocialistStrike) reported

    @uncagedrat They had a point with Neofun. Most of that stuff is garbage. But Dota is literally the same game as League. FNAF and Undertake would be lumped in with the Nintendo games. The guy has a masculinity problem. A thing he inherently lacks, finding the necessity to project on others.

  • patricknotirl patrick (@patricknotirl) reported

    nintendo wii broken

  • martinalgar Martin Algar (@martinalgar) reported

    @NintendoUK Hi team, are you able to explain why funds cannot be transferred from one family account to another? My son unknowingly credited his birthday ecard to my account and has now lost the funds as you claim you are not able to transfer. Very poor service 😡

  • DrewMarkwell Drew “KingSideCastle13” Markwell (@DrewMarkwell) reported

    Mark my words: one day, Nintendo will add GBA games to their Nintendo Switch Online service. When they do, they’re going to have Mother 3 for the first time in English as their big release for it, similar to how StarFox 2 for the first time was the big release for the SNES ones

  • _KO_panda K.O. (@_KO_panda) reported

    @Lucinator_14 @Mii_Mario_ It’s been a known issue for joycons since release and Nintendo has refused to fix it. They even refused to acknowledge it until they were sued.

  • EBoom16 EricSonicBoom16 (@EBoom16) reported

    Solved error code for Nintendo Switch you will have to format your switch sd card and install atmosphere again yeah I know it sucks but it's the only way to fix the issue if you get that error code for now. Feel free to ask any questions as I am working Xbox 360 consoles RROD

  • iRILLLL ereel (@iRILLLL) reported

    @Team17Help @Team17 Nintendo switch, since yesterday we are unable to invite each other. The problem still occur until now

  • RamzanK Ramzan Karmali (@RamzanK) reported

    Still not working. @NintendoUK - any advice please?

  • NintendoShame Nintendo Shame (@NintendoShame) reported

    It's been 208 days since the last game was added to the Nintendo Switch Online service

  • dancing_gamer4k 🇧🇧The Dancing Gamer 🇹🇹🎮 (@dancing_gamer4k) reported

    Nah Nintendo switch needs a party chat.. how am I gaming with friends using WhatsApp group calls? Nah @Nintendo fix this

  • MinuaStarcatchr Crimson (@MinuaStarcatchr) reported

    @NintendoUK GilvaSunner Oh wait you executed him for providing a service you don’t

  • Deranker8 Deranker (@Deranker8) reported

    @Dr_Scaphandre @JacquesPaught @Vet_infin Yes, it is playable at 1080p 😱 they fixed a problem that shouldn’t have even happened in the first place!!! Take my money Nintendo!! 😱

  • SiegfriedKnight SiegfriedKnight (@SiegfriedKnight) reported

    @Trashqueen_01 Thats why I’m not getting a ps5 despite me having a playstation since the playstation 2. When even Nintendo isn’t being as censorious as you there is a problem. The contents of a game is not for you to decide, only whether you will put the game on the console.

  • 394_Firery Firery 🔥 (@394_Firery) reported

    I wanted to stream some MHGU but I've spent the last half hour dealing with controller sync issues and it just reaffirms how much hate I have for Nintendo
