@NGS_Mark @NintendoUK The error code says that they can't tell me what the issue is. It's with every card I've tried in the house. PayPal and eshop credit works, cards fail. Are Nintendo not using visa?

@MadiSweats I wanna know why the DXGI errors are still a thing since 2019 :/ I have to play w scratched Nintendo ds screen graphics to make it to the end of at least 1 game 😞

@GothicBertram @Zardx5 @Treydemarked The issue is, MVS is multiplat. Nintendo will NEVER want their characters on Sony's platforms. It's why the Samus deal in Fortnite didn't work out.

@GenePark They made statement that though psp was nearly a success, SIE . Didn't find it applicable to compete, where Nintendo ruled for decades. The issue derives from development being split between handhelds and home console without cohesion. Take a look at 3ds and Wii U.

@canwecompete i remember someone saying they worked a security job and could remote-access their PC using mobile or a jail-broken Nintendo Switch...

@McThundergoose This is ******* ridiculous I've already had to replace my joy-cons twice now. When I first played this game on my Wii U there were no hardware issues at all. Why does Nintendo suck so hard now?

@gibbogame Nintendo's online service is poop. it's good that it's cheap but I just bought one again. Can't play the Sega Genesis games/N64 games or play the new Mario kart 8 deluxe maps without paying another $25.

I wonder what games (If any) will be coming to the Nintendo 64: Nintendo Switch Online service after both Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards and Pokémon Snap come out... Any guesses?

@8BitKingGaming Again those are wildly different issues. Also Nintendo =/= tpci, different organizations completely. You are trying to compare two different scenarios with the only link being computer savvy people are making them happen. You're comparing apples to ******* monster trucks dude

@JMW_BOYZ Only issue is box dies then. And its Sony and Nintendo only. People say a PC is Microsoft. No a Dell or built PC and Intel core I-9 is not Microsoft, just Windows is.

one oddly weird problem with nintendo first party games is save files. why do so many only have 1 save file. why do i have to make a new console profile to replay a game. very weird when every 3rd party game has like 100 save files just fine lmao

@SeaSoilVGC You think Nintendo wants to be broken into and have games pirated. Theyre still a multibillion dollar company that loses millions on pirating each year. You don't think they want to solve that.

@ghidorank @elliotduby I mean, it wasn't bad, but it set the bar too high. If this was for Wii and they announced Charged Switch, no one would be complaining. The main problem that Pokemon have, Nintendo has They went too hard with their DS/Wii games & now everyone gets mad when they don't "match up".

I haven’t received my monthly issue of Nintendo Power in a while. I must have forgot to re-up my subscription.

@ReploidREVO @videogamedeals You just answered your own question there. It happens with small, obscure 3rd party titles where licensing costs are low to non-existent. Nintendo also doesn’t want to cannibalize their Switch online service (and before that their virtual console). Lots of factors

@iBerleezy @JBoss293 @XcloudTimdog The problem is Nintendo’s hardware is just so outdated. Idk I’d square would be keen on being restricted to very limited hardware.

@THEREALRTU @UPspecGaming The problem I see with those is they are not nice panels and they cost the same as a nice portable screen. On the other spectrum there are portable monitors that can be connected directly to Nintendo Switch (and Series S) at lower prices with similar panel quality.

@XenobladeNopon The problem is that, as far as i’m aware, F-zero doesn’t really sell that many copies and if sales for that game are low, Nintendo starts to use the IP less.

@SeaSoilVGC CFW switches = Nintendo not Pokemon. Sure ones stealing IP and the others stealing personal info. But neither want to be broken into and avoid it at all costs. But sure tell me how its a guy in a basement hacking into Nintendo

@goodpizzagame Please tell me you plan to update the Switch version 😭 If funding is the issue I’m in a Nintendo group on Facebook where your game has a ton of fans who would support a GFM or something
