@NintendoAmerica how long will the Nintendo Store be broken? I’ve been trying to make a purchase for three days but all forms of payment are being declined for no reason.

@djtaranis Hi, Unfortunately, Nintendo are facing shipping issues in regards to the pre-order bonus content and they hope to resolve this in the coming weeks. If you require further information we would advise contacting Nintendo directly.

@Speedy_Gamer_PR @Jake766671 @NintendoAmerica Is it really better built if theres still joycon drift? The storage isn’t even a selling point. You can buy a 128gb micro sd for $15. Everything else is okay but they still could have done better. It feels lazy. They didnt fix their main issues and thats ******

T/N: I believe "Kirby Super Deluxe" refers to Kirby Super Star, which was released on the Nintendo Switch Online service in December 2019.

@Sarahinthehead That's true 😌 and specially Nintendo does a bunch of remakes and remasters of games that I missed when they came out in the beginning. The problem now it's the lack of time to play them all 🥲

@FluffyLai This is a frequent issue I have with Nintendo, they'll release a new thing and be lauded for something they did that has been in -other- games for years as if it is new. Omg, there are checkpoints in Dread, you dont have to go all the way back to a save if you die! Amazing, 10/10

@RL_Support I play on Nintendo switch and the problem that seems to persist is I can’t seem to play in any match and the items shop seems to not show up. I have tried checking for corrupt data and redownloading rocket league multiple times but the problem still seems to not be fixed.

I'm really dreading the time when Nintendo stops fixing the damn Joy-Cons for free. And I will never understand why they are so unwilling to just fix the problem. It can't be that ******* hard!

@CHelleaven @RestingMoth @NintendoAmerica lots of ppl can’t afford a monthly car payment or people have to commute large distances which wouldn’t be affordable in a ride share service. Please don’t assume that just because you are privileged to be wealthy enough to live like this, that others are too. They aren’t.

@CactusManCurtis I have this trouble all the time with my PS4 controller, my PS5 controller won't even connect to it so I had to get an Xbox controller and it worked perfectly. Also a Nintendo switch controller works easier with it aswell ...it's just sony products for some reason.

@Charlie_Hust77 @Xboxxsgreen Was never even questioned either. If you wanted a Sonic game you got a Sega console. Wanted Mario you got Nintendo. Wanted Crash Bandicoot you got PlayStation. Wanted Halo you got Xbox. Now everyone wants to have double standards lol.

Its ashame that Pokemon is lagging behind the rest of Nintendo when it comes to modernizing. The most profitable media franchise in the world should not be utterly devoid of multiplayer content in 2021.

With so many broken games coming out, Cyberpunk2077, Anthem, Battlefield 2024, GTA The definitive edition it is really time that @PlayStation, @NintendoAmerica, @Xbox offers refunds for games without it being an annoyance. This is incredibly anti-consumer.
