@NintendoAmerica Anyone know how to fix my online? I'm always getting disconnected and start freezing constantly to a point where the game is unplayable. If anyone can help that would be much appreciated!

Someone should do Chrontendo except with video game magazines. Gather every issue of GameFan, Game Players, EGM, Nintendo Power, Game Pro, etc. and go through them month by month.

@Lockstin BUT, I understand there may be issues on more than 1 side, not just GF, but Nintendo and the anime around that, so it's most likely a case of, easier said than done.

@itsTomokocchi Because yes, I will ***** about other companies doing this and continue to be part of the problem when Nintendo does it, but I know what I am doing and I still speak with my wallet where it matters to me with them as well.

@nazzurii @KinobladeTorna this is one way, in which the service is so bad that they'll regret asking nintendo for an online mode in something. the other option is that it'll actually be functional, and people like me will look silly for thinking it won't

@BombosMedallion @Gwunhar This is an endemic problem at both Nintendo and Pokemon that I could yell about for a good hour or so. It's even dumber than it looks from the outside

So fun fact, I've never played a PlayStation game before. I'm planning to change that by playing a Crash Bandicoot game... on the Nintendo Switch. Hmmm, something seems wrong here, and I don't know what.

Then again this also goes to the problem of the Switch and the fact we cannot customize the Home Screen at all... That is definitely an advantage the Nintendo 3DS had over the Switch.

It has been patently proven that certain pokemon being barred from SwSh is neither an issue of disc space nor workload. So if there are pokemon that can't be moved to the remake even via Home I'm never forgiving nintendo

@HarrietLowther I suspect some of this is Christmas burnout, and, sorry, but Nintendo trouble too.

@Goddessbunny61 Well be if it’s under warranty Nintendo we’ll fix it if not. You have to replace it or have someone that can open it up and replace it.

@Nintendeal Update: GAME has no idea when they're getting copies as they've not been informed by Nintendo of Europe. So I was right about NOE being the ******* problem (as usual)

In other news, went to play the rereleased #ScottPilgrimvstheWorldTheGame and it either crashed or froze several times when playing online. I think the online needs to be more stable or it's Nintendo that may be at fault here for their online service.

@PuyoOfficial @thesketchsector Everything is cool and all, but please, could you fix the lag in the Nintendo switch version? It's bugging me a bit whenever I play with both puyo and tetris (and this when I'm playing offline). Other than that, I really like this update!

@ejfanatic The problem now is that Nintendo is not following them or vice versa

If you didn’t secure your wiimote wrist strap firmly on your wrist as per Nintendo’s health and safety guidelines, you’re probably the type of person who is in between jobs indefinitely and listens to pop punk while blaming all your problems on everyone else.

@TigersfanOU I think it's more a demographic issue: core Nintendo games ARE often aimed at kids. Kids aren't buying the games, the parents are. The parents just want to make their kids happy, so $30 and $60 are often the same thing to them.
