    @grhufnagl See, that's why I had a subscription to magazines like Nintendo Power instead. 1 issue answered more of my questions, cost me about as much per issue as a 1 minute call to those numbers and I wouldn't get in trouble for running up my parent's phone bill

    Looks like Nintendo's servers are back online now. Time to play Borderlands 2 on my Switch. The outage didn't last long at least.

  • ShroOnTwitch Shrodinger (@ShroOnTwitch) reported

    @vergolophus It has always been extremely remarkable to me just how poor Nintendo's Online service has been over the years

  • fausett_jacob Melvik (@fausett_jacob) reported

    I knew #Nintendo's online server was always unstable, but Now I can't even get on even though I have internet. #NintendoOnline is always broken.

  • DyROCC DyROCC (@DyROCC) reported

    @dissensia @TanukiDanShow It's not Nintendo themselves doing this. Yes they are responding to reports but other players are making the reports that get these Creators banned. It's my understanding Federico didn't use a glitch in the last level and it was probably flagged for the title alone.

  • ladyriven Riven 🔜 #PAXUnplugged (@ladyriven) reported

    I guess AWS is still down. I was hoping that we could activate our PAX Badges by now but the website won't even load. Having trouble with Nintendo Switch Online, too.

  • teharrisonfox55 Thomas E Harrison (@teharrisonfox55) reported

    @Destructo_Dan @Ubisoft Sonic, Crash, Spyro, Banjo, Rayman. Why do so many beloved mascots have to suffer through greed, stupidity, arrogance and more. Even Mario and Link has suffered through Nintendo's arrogance

  • aramnotagoat 𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒎 (@aramnotagoat) reported

    Hey everyone this is the operations director for Nintendo Switch Online. We’re so grateful to have you all as blindly loyal customers. We currently have no plans to improve the service since we already have your money, but I encourage you to keep tweeting about it b/c free press!

  • K_Stinkyy STINKY (@K_Stinkyy) reported

    @lulucinnabon It's a nintendo account server lock down! IT just happened today so they trying to fix it rn. I tried getting on minecraft but it's a server issue

  • CahRonShooM KaranshuIsMyCity (@CahRonShooM) reported

    @CapablePerform1 @JustTheClippy I hope so too man. I'm at least glad Toei's trending. Japan has a problem with this stuff, but Toei is a big offender too. Them and Nintendo, but thankfully Nintendo just kinda stopped doing that Either way I'm just hoping at the very least Mark gets his stuff back
