Nintendo really needs to figure out the burying issue in the shop..if a triple a game comes out that's not a hugely known title but 40 Indies come out during the 1st 3 weeks of release it and all the indies get burried unless they sell a ton to get in the most sold chart

@Scarcit54108128 @Plurlmao @NintendoAmerica What's your ******* point? CRT had it and so did Plasma and likely SED and FED might have had it had they succeeded and been released. These are ALL superior screen techs. and what makes it possible also creates the burn-in issue. If 1080p, 4K and 6K(**** 8K it's worthless 1/2

@memenumber @MKUltraLabel @NintendoAmerica 👋 Once they come out( if are new created ones) and I see that people are having problems with them I might maybe do a little thing of what I did in the past again. ( Aka showing something to nintendo tw about problems and hoping that Nintendo will listen)

@jmartzlite1994 I blame Nintendo because no other company has pulled Netflix from their services yet (Save for the Vita, but Vita is dead weight save for CFW). Please, then, if it's just my community it's a problem with, point me to your sources saying otherwise.

@Yeahhhboyyy2 @DarkDawg219 @elliotduby (1)The biggest issue is that nintendo's old consoles are incredibly easy to emulate so If I don't want to pay for skyward sword I literally don't have to. Imagine you have a perfectly working microwave and then someone says "here's a new one that is only slightly better but is

@VitoGesualdi I don't need the switch to be a power house, I just want it to be able to render Mario without lagging or adaptive resolution The fact that Bowser's Fury runs as poorly as it does should be a huge red flag for nintendo

Would i like a Switch Pro? Ehhhh.. maybe someday? Idk I haven't had a ton of issues with any of the games I've played in 2 years power wise and until a vast majority of Nintendo stuff is struggling to run on Switch I'm cool with the current version rather than splitting the base

@k13chris I suspect we won’t know until actually using them, because Nintendo only sort of acknowledges this is a real problem to begin with.

@JafafaHots @impulsebynature @ZhugeEX Nintendo can get away with anything cuz people allow them to , that’s why I ain’t ever gunna buy their ****** product , their hardware is trash anyway it won’t be a problem to emulate in a few years

@marcobayod @LotsofLams @IGN There isn’t a problem. I was just pointing out the flaw in his finger pointing. Can’t blame Nintendo for doing things if they are successful.

@Azaslofff @SuperiorArtemis @NintendoAmerica Bigger screen, better technology, better sound. If that’s not worth the extra $50 to you, then the existing Switch is still the same price. I don’t see the problem.

@IGN That isn't even slightly true. In the past nintendo has fixed major issues. Back lighting on the gameboy, a Joystick on the 3ds, backwards compatibility on the Wii. They use to fix niche problems and big problems, but Nintendo realized idiots will buy even low quality products.

(@MikeUntitled) reported
@richeymanic You're right. They can't fix the games they already released. Unusually go to Nintendo for good Nintendo games. They haven't had any since wiiu. But I hope if they release a new system the next games will be good.

I cannot recommend a switch. The games are very limited, only the Nintendo games have much quality and still can be very bad. We’re starting to only get content that takes 2 months or games made a long time ago. Barely any service for users, less inspiration, and so many problems

@RisingBlur THIRD PARTY GAMES are made to be scaled, with multiple platforms in mind. Nintendo's first party games run great on Switch but you can't possibly expect that performance from a title like Crash Remastered or Doom. Those games are ports. Switch hardware needs a performance boost

(@owenemomen) reported
@HyperCharge_Sam It sucks enough that so many third party games worth playing are usually the last to be released after being essentially downgraded for the Switch, but when Nintendo's own ******* games lag under the hardware I cant help but question the validity of a new model.

@HGemsReviews “The communities that I’m part of and their personal problems with the switch encapsulate all other problems that exist for it” yes exactly, why only Nintendo consoles hmm? You seem to blame Nintendo on this “huge” Netflix not on switch thing but don’t question the app developer

Man the new Switch does look amazing tbh, literally giving us almost all of the quality of life updates we wanted, but c’mon Nintendo. Is it really that hard to make it more powerful so games lag less often or not at all?

@LiatLNS @mewlett @Ya_Boi_Azau Yeah that's why I said it was also really stupid but at least it has a clear reason to exist (well, would have if Nintendo would fix literally anything ever).

my one big major issue is that i hear that it uses the same joycons of course so ur still gonna have to replace them for stick drift after like 5 months. i cant ******* believe nintendo’s still going with this **** this is the most anti-consumer thing i’ve ever seen

The only problem with LRT is anything posted for sale online is going to get scooped up by scalpers immediately, which means Nintendo gets its sales numbers whether people actually want it or not.

@FattestDolphin @Zeldamaster9001 That’s why I’m glad I just have the base model because Nintendo still haven’t addressed the drift issue. That’s why I never got a lite.
