(@RadCharzrd) reported
a cultural phenomenon. You're telling me everyone who criticized EA was a fan and played their games? Of course not. People did it because everyone else did. This is when mob mentality is a good thing. We all came together to take down something bad. Nintendo issues...

@markredpath11 Yup, you’re right. Another one of my followers said this “error” is occurring after the last update. Hopefully, they’ll get it sorted quickly. Odd misstep by Nintendo regarding an update.

@stopskeletons Yeah, it's been weeks and no fix from Nintendo

@ADavatwal @NintendoAmerica There’s literally no amount of hashtags and posting that would make crash more or less likely

@Clickteam Can you send some fix updates for other fnaf games on the Nintendo switch?

@NickdeBruyne Nintendo stuff isn’t broken, they just wanted to remind us of the good old days when blowing stuff made it work again

@JustinDreamSaga @NintendoAmerica But then you run into the issue where if everyone gets it right, leaving Luigi is a more likely chance he’ll get the wrong lever

(@VgDiegazo) reported
@TreyNoblesRM @thekazeblade I don’t even think that the issue when the people at Nintendo life did the forces impressions video, it’s probably one of the most viewed ones. Taking bad about sonic got them more views than a lot of their regular videos

@spopalzai Your Nintendo Switch is broken?

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is GOTY so far
(@MrEnvyDub) reported
Plus, don't even get me started on the weapon durability system. Any weapon you find breaks way too often. If you're gonna have a weapon durability system, have weapon reparation mechanic as well. Hopefully, Nintendo addresses those issues in Breath of the Wild 2.

@Minecraft I wish that Crash Bandicoot will also be in Minecraft because Mario from Nintendo, Sonic from Sega and Crash from Activision will come together.

So, from my understanding, that download error was happening on Nintendo's side? And they fixed it?

@NintendoUK @NintendoUK where can we pre-order this? Over 24 hours sinc launch and links not working. We're trying to give you and @Atlus_West our money and it's like you don't want it #onemorefanrejected

Update: Super Famicom Wars was released via the Nintendo Power service in Japan. What the Satellaview got was a demo. Apologies for the error.

@Minecraft @NintendoAmerica Hey Minecraft, I had a question. I bought the Sonic dlc on Switch and I like it but it keeps crashing. Will there be a patch to fix this?

(@mcdecoste) reported
@TAHK0 @CartridgeGames The only 'issues' I've heard of with AC seem to be related to its slower game flow. That's not something Nintendo might ever address, even with infinite development resources. As for adding more events / NPCs, that would be nice but it's not a broken game without them.

💀 Game Over 💀
(@monoxzide) reported
@Lucas_Chaotic_ @IGN I agree nintendo is behind and has been for decades, its also a choice as they choose not to compete and be innovators..they are a toy maker and aimed at familys and kids 1st. My issue is you actually thinking their choices will be their downfall, thats laughable

@NintendoAmerica 2 things, you might need new customer service reps and speaking of which if you're hiring can I send you my resume

@Dragonkicktweet With Nintendo still not having addressed the drifting joycon issue at the root cause I'd be wary of getting a lite unless you're fine with the fact that it will definitely need to be sent in later for work

@monoxzide @IGN lol this reply doesnt make sense because all i want to see is nintendo improve, the problem is that they dont listen to their fans so nintendo is falling behind to playstation and xbox, and this is true no matter how successful nintendo is as a company

@_bramv_ @Nintendo Which part in particular are you having trouble with? To initially move the ball I connected a moving box to the ball and made the box move at game start and then the box is destroyed. To stop the ball losing momentum I checked it's speed with a sensor and then (1/2)

@Zaya30 @WilliamBlue73 @Minecraft Well the modding is more of a Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony type of problem I think because a lot more games would be able to be modded but everything has to go through them 1st
-
Cart Games
(@CartridgeGames) reported
@TAHK0 Nintendo also messed up Mario Maker 2 post launch support and that released in 2019. AC was delayed into 2020 and its been over a year with a lot of issues remaining unfixed. Not so sure it’s solely the pandemic. Maybe most of the staff moved to Splatoon instead

@VictoryPosition The way that people will praise Nintendo for like everything that they make but then also demand that they do live service without also demanding that like they do regular accessibility just drives me bananas

@FortniteGame so, Apparently when I signed in on my Nintendo switch a long time ago it did not ask for a password, so I don’t have one. So I can’t sign in to my account on my xbox
