You’ve not going to make me believe that Nintendo is in financial trouble that would need to push out mediocre games every 2 minutes to survive, they can take a good 5 years to make the next Pokemon game for all we care, because people want A FUN AND GOOD LOOKING GAME

@Mayro2020 + if they actually "cared" they'd allow the devs time to "fix" the bad courses, but there are still bad looking courses in the current waves? 💀💀 it is just cheap dlc to keep people "happy" until the next thing (and fill the bank more because poor small Nintendo needs it)

Before I crash for the night. If anyone is familiar with network things and Nintendo switches does anyone know how to remedy this error: 2-ALZXA-0007. I get it when trying to trade Pokémon with friends or a wonder trade but can’t figure why. My net connection is stable and

Scarlet just crashed on me, after apparently turning off autosave earlier without me doing so. Lost hours of Pokédex work and the first shiny I'd found (Skiploom) because Nintendo can't make games that don't crash from graphical overload.

Game Freaks laziness somehow rewards them even further for releasing a buggy game. EA, Activision Blizzard & Ubisoft would love to sell broken or no effort games like how Nintendo & the Pokemon company do. Fascinating isnt it how everyone is ok with the buggy game. #Pokemon

@Voracious_Akari It look like food... not my problem. Ask Nintendo why they ended making a pokemon like that. Only meant to be eaten~

@SinfulBehaviors @Starjeti Yeah its just le 5 second animation and thousands other visual and gameplay issues. Its release is on par if not worse considering how big pokemon is than cyberpunk but i bet you didnt defend that game and only soyjak over nintendo products.

@ToHDraws Agreed, sadly Gamefreak always had this issue since the 3DS. Gen 8 was a clear sign that something was wrong about the development. Now this performance is inexcusable for a Nintendo Game, don't get me wrong it's a pretty good game but a hardware upgrade isn't going to save it.

@Vueko_ @SmallAnt It's not an excuse, I just saw plenty of people who are disappointed that everyone is shitting on Nintendo/TPC for how bad the game is because they are enjoying the game and in response acting like it has no problems, I'm just pointing out both crowds have valid points

@Chrissanders13 At the risk of trivialising, part of the problem is that Saudi money, Qatari money, etc. is *everywhere* in the UK/'Western culture'. PIF also has a stake in Nintendo (among other companies), UK has various trade deals with these states (inc. arms...). And so on.

@NintendoAmerica FIX. THE. GAME. The lagging, the endless list of glitches and bugs, the crashing. The games graphics already look like **** to begin with and yet the devs can't even handle making the game function with such low graphical output. Yall should be embarrassed. The game is unfinished

@PownicMania5000 Pokémon Scarlett and Violet is really that broken wow. Many new games release broken with glitches and issues and hopefully other companies start doing what Nintendo is doing and refund customers due to their lack of caring for the finished product and start making good products

(@ChrisGamerDude) reported
@PownicMania5000 Well its a good idea from Nintendo, since the game is not up to scale and it suffers through a bug & a glitch problem when it first launched or probably the Switch is not capable enough without the dock on TV mode, Nintendo will have to come up with a next level powerful switch.

@AlbarnsDemon If Nintendo themselves are stepping in, which is something they rarely do for games when it comes to issues, then I have a feeling we will be getting patches Either way the game has to, because aside from gameplay and in general the game is a hot mess rn

@Sanio46 buddy, i was working at a demo for pokemon trading card game, close to us was nintendo presenting the game, it was a complete disaster for them. They had to try and hide all the bugs and errors. I'm just saying i'm done overlooking it or looking away

@TheSolarWolf1 @CocoaFox023 @RocktWithAPockt This standard mostly comes from the fact that bigger and better talent on the Nintendo Switch (Nintendo In-House basically) creating Mario Odyssey, BotW, and TotK. The standards of games are increasing, and no one is showing issues with it till this happens, it's not enough.

was abt to sleep but i just saw gameplay footage of gen 9 and uh. wuff. i thought the complaints had to be harsh but i genuinely can’t tell when smth is a glitch or a result of the game being unpolished. nintendo is insane to release this the way it is
