@EddyZacianLand nah, but this only a problem with Nintendo. with my playstation 4 I can still play it without upgrading and have my games not lag except for a few outliers. With the switch the only thing that makes it worth buying is the games. The console itself is so scuffed.

I would very much like to know when Nintendo is doing their activities at E3, I want to see if I can telework those days ;_; ( I always work with musics or videos in the bg, without problems, but Youtube is blocked at work)

Nintendo can announce all the new hardware they want for the Switch but until they fix the joycon drift issue IDGAF.

@Error404Recon Even if the switch pro does come out, it will likely never be on the same level as the current gen consoles we have now, but I personally don't see that as too much of an issue. Not like we're gonna see nintendo releasing games like cod or cyberpunk on switch.

@Zari_Wari I usually buy the physical releases for AAA Nintendo games from my local Walmart (because it’s the closest place that sells video games), and those are $10 less than the usual $60, if that. And considering I usually wait until I get paid, I can sometimes get 2 without an issue.

@jaidenalemni I've wanted to for such a long time. I learned awhile back that MV/MZ can port, but Nintendo won't allow them on the store due to some issue with HTML5. XP might not have that problem though. But then you also can't port any stock assets to other engines...

@Helexzura @casamato21 That really depends. Never had issues asking for refunds digitally on Xbox. Playstation and Nintendo gave me some headaches, one never moved forward actually.

@NintendoAmerica Hello, I am having issues with my Nintendo switch. When I put it into the Dock it makes a loud fuzzing noise. I'm not quite sure what it is, I don't think it's the connect as the wires that connect from the TV/Monitor to the switch are in perfect condition

The PS5 is terrible I will sell this for cheap as for 300 to 400 the Nintendo switch never had any problems and my Wi-Fi is perfect and it’s a beautiful day... Dissatisfied. 👎

So if the Nintendo Switch Pro actually exists and its production wouldn't start until July, wouldn't its production suffer the same issues as the PS5 & Series X currently? Not that Nintendo would care. They'd welcome the built-in shortages.

@hankgreen An interesting thing about what Nintendo's been doing with the switch... This is like the third or fourth iteration of the console. Will be cool if they fix the joycon drift.

@AndreaPichinini It's neither anti-consumer nor does it need explanations. It's something a publisher has to care about and no one else. It also isn't a problem caused by Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo or anyone else but 2k if they aren't willing to pay about 5% share for using Sony's online service

Fix the Joy-con drift problem and the overheating problem @NintendoAmerica before you release a new version of the #NintendoSwich because it's ridiculous

Can you imagine troubleshooting "45% of all high schools" networks to get the Nintendo Switch to work at their school? If customer service wasn't getting back to you before, submit a work order now for the fall.......or join your local state association.

People are going to de upset over the "Switch Pro," because it's gonna get the updates that people been demanded for the Switch, like a new UI and folders; the controllers will still have the drift problem; and third-parties will make more excuses than games on Nintendo consoles.

@Tito69619339 @mariokarttourEN This is the last thing I'll say to you today. Your ignorant and a hypocrite. Get some professional help. If it ain't my business dont tweet public dm Nintendo if you have a problem (which you certainly do.) If you like the game dont play Nintendo wont care. Have a good day clown.

im honestly guessing since they said they lost the source code for games like unleashed and generations this was a similar issue. my guess is i am willing to BET that they ended up getting it from nintendo considering it was a wii exclusive. i ****** BET they asked nintendo

@nosleep1138 I prefer PS to Xbox and Nintendo. But I can fairly point out the good and bad of all of it and fairly judge stuff. That's the problem is when people let a check create a bias for publishing ****. Honesty shouldn't be a rarity in journalism
