@Mookie6209 @greenfloyd423 @NintendoAmerica What ******** are you even talking about? I said that there are issues which are mainly the frame drops. That doesn't make the game unplayable like these ******* ******** are saying. Just ******* don't buy the game if you're gonna be a sad ******* emo bastard about it...

@greenfloyd423 @NintendoAmerica I’ve nearly soft locked myself a couple times already. Besides that, I’ve had no issues.

@Mookie6209 @greenfloyd423 @NintendoAmerica Why would I be angry about a game when I am not experiencing the oh so gamebreaking **** you claim there is? Every time it gets brought up I see the same 3 clips. **** off with your fanboy bullshit, I am playing it without too many issues and enjoying it. Be miserable on your own

@NintendoAmerica @NintedoSupport told me I had to wait 3 business days for them to "consider" refunding pokemon scarlett on my switch lite because it literally doesn't function at a playable rate with the graphical problems and super low frame rates.

Anyone else having a problem finding a copy of Pokemon Scarlet that does not crash? I am using the original Switch and all my other game cards work. Cutscenes and lots of sprites seem to cause crashes. Already exchanged it twice. @NintendoAmerica @Pokemon

@pChalTV And every assignment we do in our CS classes has to be checked for memory leaks or errors on valgrind, if there is a single one we lose massive points. How do such memory leaks slip into full release of a $60 main series Nintendo game?

@Daboyui Nah it isn't a switch issue, emulators have it 2 from what I saw This is just the consequences of nintendo giving game freak barely any time to make the game and gamefreak being mid af at making big world 3d games. For once it's not the switch it's fault XD

@Chris_TV_Live @trsrpc I think the main issue is unlike nintendo (Which most of their target audiences have it for the exclusive) most playstation games play mainstream games like cod more so even if they were to make a bungie game to rival cod, It would not make the same amount of sales and revenue

@Mookie6209 @greenfloyd423 @NintendoAmerica How ******** am I trying to damage control for them when I didn't have the ******* issues you ***** are talking about? Frame drops don't make a game unplayable, don't be a ******* idiot and say it does. That is what's called exaggerating. Be a sad ******* **** somewhere else

like, someone at Nintendo had to greenlight these games knowing their performance issues. I genuinely feel insulted as a fan.

@KrakenMare77 I’ve been trying to report the bugs I run into to the right people so far…contacting Pokémon support they just reply “we can’t help with technical issues” but Nintendo support seems very eager to receive bug reports.

@BrandonDobias @greenfloyd423 @NintendoAmerica They are definitely there but that's the case with literally every game release ever on any console and in any time period ever. Are there issues that need fixing? Of course. But they don't ruin the game or the enjoyability of it unless you are just looking to get angry

@NintendoAmerica @Pokemon The lagging is atrocious. I can’t believe the games were approved for release. I’m done paying for your low quality games. If I wanna play them I’ll just emulate.

@Touyarokii I love that Nintendo was all "Ok. Make the MC a kid so people stop making porn of her" then I see Mom and the rival and I'm all "Oh no. They cute/hot. I'm in trouble..."

@ShadirHS @greenfloyd423 @NintendoAmerica "Holy **** these people heavily exaggerate the issues". just because you have severly low standards doesnt mean everyone else does. and you know dam well your game is choppy as hell too. just because you turn a blind eye doesnt mean its not happening

@NintendoAmerica Let them uave it my pokemon fans , don't let them keep posting every hour to avoid the criticism they deserve, they released a broken half baked ugly game for the 3rd time while other 3rd party games release godly games like xenoblade 3 and bayonetta 3 #PokemonScarletViolet

@MrSinnoh No, the problem is likely The Pokemon Company and Nintendo not properly supporting Game Freak, or rushing them to produce games yearly.
