@NintendoAmerica Please fix N64 emulation on switch, I paid $50 for an emulator that runs worse than the wide variety of free emulators on PC.

@SolidRoar @EmilyRogersBlog True. Especially the emu. problems. I just hope Nintendo will keep the service from now on and build on it instead of starting a new experiment with the successor. It could eventually turn into something great.

@NoStrife @PaulTassi @Forbes Thats kinda the problem tho. With nintendo as a whole. I bought monster hunter stories 2 and that game chuuuuuugs and is so framy on switch. Everyone just gives nintendo a pass on how their games look. Yes they are fun. But there should also be a standard and theyre a gen behind

@NintendoAmerica UPDATE MARIO MAKER 2!!!!!!!!!!! Make the "BOO" option actually get rid of the horrible levels in Multiplayer mode, there's so much trash there! Let's work on the connection issues too while we're at it.

@ACNH_Maple Have you restarted the game? Like switch games and go back. Other wise I would report the glitch to Nintendo’s support

@DirtyBilgeRat @RogueSpyke @JimSterling The big problem with your comparison there is that Nintendo themselves aren’t selling at scalped prices, so they’re not making any of the scalped profit.

@NintendoUK Was expecting something a bit more special or even an amiibo reveal/pack in edition. Will continue to buy my games from GAME as you get a much better reward/points service than Nintendo 🙃🙃🙃

So, Nintendo, one of the reasons people bought that snes and nes mini, was the fine tuned responsiveness and playing games on official hardware. So why do you banish all N64 games to a laggy streaming service. Sure, one day you won’t care anymore, but not today.

@verynetwork I have a problem with my Nintendo Switch, but I cannot find any way to contact customer service other than the telephone. Is there any other way to report an issue?

@NintendoAmerica can you please patch #LegendOfZelda Ocarina of Time on N64 Online to correct the severe input lag!??? It’s borderline unplayable

I'll be honest, the Nintendo Eshop is the worst feature on the switch. Sure the Wii U and the 3ds could take a long time to load theirs but at least they don't lag out and hang every 2 seconds. If they look for features to improve on I hope their storefront is top of the list.

Is anyone else's cloud saves on @NintendoAmerica Switch not uploading? It just keeps saying "waiting to upload" and gives me an error if I try to start the game (it will still let me play, though).

@GameStop hey GameStop. Pretty dissatisfied with your guys service. In October, I bought a pre-owner copy of Hidden Objects for the Nintendo switch. The game freezes and can’t even read. I did not purchase a warranty apparently either… why do I need to pay more?

@JustmeRclol @NintendoAmerica Kirby Superstar is already on there so I have my favorite game. Though sad that I might lose it in the future if there’s no longer an online service. We’re still a long way away from that but I wish Nintendo would let me keep it.

@NintendoAmerica Maybe I'll get these when Nintendo starts putting good games on their online service. Be honest, it sucks and they don't care. The e-shop on the WiiU runs laps around this crap. So, no no no no and no. Also, no.

@wrytersview @lilock33 I actually ended up getting this on the advice of Nintendo’s support, after my system was having problems and we had to send it to a service centre.

@Wishurii @NathanielBandy1 I just meant for Nintendo, specifically, because people are usually taking about it in the context of the Switch's best year. Maybe not Bandy here, though. If we're looking at all platforms, then yeah, 2017 is hard to beat. Also had the Crash N. Sane Trilogy.

Everyone rolls up to defend nintendo releasing empty field simulator and mad I don't like it, but got nothing to say about actual problems in gaming.
