@NayNayKitty_ @SuperSmashPics Nintendo Online and dem Laggy matches FYI (I had a match where the game lag last for 2 and a half minutes. TWO Minutes of lag, I had to quit, and this popped up.) Good job Nintendo

@DragonSmooches This is genuinely why I wish Sony would invest in a Vita successor because I think they could likely solve the cooling issue with a dedicated gaming handheld. Nintendo's not going to be the one to do it, I don't think.

Weird side tweet, anyone who ordered the Palico and Palamute Amiibo actually get them? I was told by the Nintendo UK store I’d get an update but I didn’t, curious if this is just me or an issue for everyone....

@SdyTgaming @JakeFlake007 @destinytrack PS5 already has drifting issues with joysticks and has been shown that with over 400 hours. Nintendo and them are under lawsuits for it currently. Playing Destiny on my pro vs my PS5 big difference. Like trying to cut through refrigerated butter vs melted butter. Just too smooth

@itzstitchol @NintendoAmerica @Target i know, but scalpers are a big issue with nintendo products so i don’t get why they didn’t provide stock + availability that are large enough for the demand. my only guess is that they might want this to be an exclusive event to keep the cards ‘rare’ but i don’t like that idea

Joestar wanting Monster Hunter in Smash (plz help)
(@Kloqdq) reported
@Mailia @Nibellion That is an issue but not exclusively an issue to Sony. Look at Nintendo or how Microsoft handled it before game pass. Really all companies should do better in making their games available, because it's been a ******* joke for years now. Piracy is becoming the best option more now

@didyouknowgamin You know, my joycon never drifted, which means it's not Nintendo's fault and isn't a real issue! They never do anything wrong, of course

@BG_247_YT @PlayApex @ChinatownMarket I don’t think they can fix that just saying and plus they probably have no idea what you’re talking about since you just “Switch” instead of Nintendo Switch

@ChuckHellebuyck Ah, but a subtle difference is the manufacturer (Nintendo) and the employee (Meijer) who hid the unit aren't actually related, so that's just a pure supply issue and not a marketing play by the employee!

@didyouknowgamin I was told it would be 2-3 months to get my joycon(s) back. If I still had issues that'd be another 2-3 months without the whole system. That's not a solution. I just did the repairs myself and got an 8bitdo SN30 Pro+ for docked mode. Not happy with Nintendo.

@TonyHawkTheGame Yo, speaking of Madness... Can you fix the game on Nintendo Switch? It's not on there yet. I need that fixed ASAP. Thanks.

Huh, so today I learned the connection problems I tend to have with my left joy-con is actually an issue that's been widespread since before joy-con drift... ...Nintendo, ya'll are real bad at responding to tech issues.

@pkintheuniverse The real problem with the Wii shop channel was that you couldn't redownload your games if god forbid anything happened to your console, Nintendo has always been very poor at running a digital store front unfortunately.

@DynamoSuperX They don't need a "Smash Kart" in the first place, but don't shy away from adding crossover Nintendo characters like Kirby (+Warp Star Kart) - maybe even *some* third parties but keep it to the simple ones like Sonic, Crash, and Banjo.

@Sora4Smash2 I have no idea. I'm hoping for Crash but Nintendo is throwing curve *****.

@Auntie_Aliasing Emulation is not a problem. It’s only a problem when people start sharing a dump version of a game they don’t own. Other than that, Sony and Nintendo should be grateful that people are willing to preserve their legacy by whatever means they can so it won’t fade away.
