    @xXTenmasSXx Actually, i don't think 3ds Wi-Fi service will shut down. Nintendo will only shut down eShop in March. But i still can help you, because i don't finish my US yet. This is my FC: 2939 3421 8895 So, what is your FC? ps: I was already 50Lv.

  • Unfazed_799 Aidan Worthington (@Unfazed_799) reported

    @ThatSrb2DUDE 1. Mahi Mahi and other map designs, but mostly Mahi Mahi, though I do hold an additional vendetta against Eeltail. 2. Disconnects for literally no reason. Fix your game please, Nintendo. 3. Brellas being unplayable in every mode except in maaaybe turf, which no one cares about.

  • BJ86491 woe befall they who read this message (@BJ86491) reported

    @littlesummm Nintendo and their ****** internet A universal problem

  • KadenKyarel kkaden (@KadenKyarel) reported

    @NintendoAmerica The Shopping cart is broken in the Nintendo Store if you (maybe just me?) are signed in (in Chrome and Edge) Clicking items to add to cart seems to refresh the page and the cart remains empty.

  • GBascoGaming GabrielBasco Games (@GBascoGaming) reported

    :: @NintendoAmerica EShop Error Code: 2813-2470 on all my cards. Earlier, I had one transaction go through and then everything after that doesn't work. Even the same card wouldn't work again.

  • AWonderfulSound Sweet Melody (@AWonderfulSound) reported

    @dragonsanpizza @NintendoAmerica I've played and have had almost no glitches. Some lag here and there and one time Koraidon didn't show up when I jumped from a mountain to a lake, so it looked like I was sitting on air. That's it. Petty sure people are exploiting glitches tl get them to occurr.

  • hecknom Deviantart and Tumblr w/ same username (@hecknom) reported

    @Nyxus_11 I have my original (broken) Nintendo DS still

  • bilidelfia Bill🍃 (@bilidelfia) reported

    @BenjiSdashG @PG_rayC @PracticalTAS If the community had a problem with Panda partnering with Nintendo, why wasn't the backlash immediate? The community has no idea how to rationalize the destruction of Panda now that SWT has backed away from the claim that Panda somehow pulls the legal strings at Nintendo HQ.

  • Larsonicgerman Larsonic (@Larsonicgerman) reported

    @weather0witch Literally any first party game before the Switch came. The switch era just ruined Nintendo's reputation, so I can feel more comfortable playing any other of their older games on Wii U & 3DS rather than either spending 50 bucks for ****** service or 60 bucks for one game.

  • leonkiriliuk Leon Kiriliuk (@leonkiriliuk) reported

    I got Pokémon Scarlet for the Nintendo Switch today. I’ve never played any Pokémon games so I leave it to my 11yo to advise on “performance”. So far he told me he can’t feel any slowdown or issues. Let’s see in a week what he discovers.

  • Random_FPS Brady 🎲 (@Random_FPS) reported

    @Nymnesis HOWEVER Nintendos online service is very bad and the best version of online any of their games have is a fan made mod of a game from 20+ years ago and isn’t supported by Nintendo in anyway

  • Moon_Bow15 BlueMoon (@Moon_Bow15) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Fix mario kart i keep getting stuck to the wall with that antennae bs

  • jase_3d_artist Andres Salvatierra (JASE) / 3D artist (@jase_3d_artist) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Fix this horrible game

  • _AkiraX Akira (@_AkiraX) reported

    Fix ur ******* servers @NintendoAmerica tired of random comm errors in S3 for no reason

  • MasterDan HipMasterDan (@MasterDan) reported

    Heck! Nintendo did the same exact thing during the Video Game Crash and marketed the Nintendo Entertainment System as a kids toy by including R.O.B.. Only difference is that these companies are just larping.

  • DarrenZacharia3 GeomagneticFieldAnalyzer (@DarrenZacharia3) reported

    @Nintendo I would personally prefer the answer than the error

  • batsouppe 🌼🌱🔸️ B▵T 🔸 🌱🌼 (@batsouppe) reported

    So close to the black slop suit....so close. Only need 2 gold and 60 bronze. The game lag when there are too many bosses is disgusting tho 😭 nintendo would probably play it off as a feature too LOLL

  • Ebakthecat Ebak (@Ebakthecat) reported

    @LCKFan369 @ArloStuff Furthermore, Nintendo put out quality games. Do they have issues, oh heeeell yeah. They are terrible at transparency, awful at preservation and providing access to legacy titles. But Arlo is commenting on this specific issue. 2/2

  • ishmael_king Ishmael King (@ishmael_king) reported

    @Universal__Core Its either a few sightline issues or they dont build the land at all, which would you rather have. There’s such limited space in USH that its crazy that these are the *only* sight line problems in Nintendo World

  • ThisIsCSDX CSDX(Sean) 🐀 #BLM (@ThisIsCSDX) reported

    So, given how much people heralded copying save data to a USB drive on PS4 back when Nintendo announced to limit save data to only the console & paid cloud service, I'm kinda surprised I haven't seen anyone **** on the PS5 for not letting you copy save data to said USB drive.

  • patricknotirl patrick (@patricknotirl) reported

    nintendo wii broken

  • TornadoScrappy The Scrappy Tornado (@TornadoScrappy) reported

    @LuigiBlood I actually think a Nintendo cloud gaming service could work well IF (and it’s a big IF) they actually put in effort in making it work.

  • celestialspoils ciel | 💙💛 (@celestialspoils) reported

    i liked the old design better but nintendo patched out the diagonal items glitch…..

  • Itsdatboy3 sofapoopin (@Itsdatboy3) reported

    @dragonsanpizza @NintendoAmerica The glitches are blown out of proportion but the performance issues are still real sadly
