@AshElizabeth19 Hokay, so. ZELDA Link to the Past is on Nintendo Switch Online (it what their subscription service is called to access the older games like Mario Party 3). No Bubble Blast or Marble Madness though. Idk how often they load games to Nintendo Switch Online though.

@NintendoAmerica @rNintendoSwitch I was double charged due to a network error when buying an annual Nintendo Switch Online plan. Luckily, I noticed. After jumping through your support hoops, I was refunded. Stop being disingenuous. These double charges should be auto-reversed.

@TehVilly I mean that's true and all for JP's side of splatoon, but unless it's a tourney where it's prohibited, it's still possible in the game? JP culture and EU cultures are different, and it was either just league or solo, it's not that big of a deal. Nintendo for sure will fix it now

@theactualjosi @deckard3k @NintendoUK Are you stupid? It's Nintendos products, they are responsible for fixing issues with them.

Bought the new @TheAtari_VCS and received it several days ago. Atari server problems prevent it from working at all. It’s currently a very expensive paperweight. Atari claims they are working on a fix, but no timeline. Maybe I should just return it and get a Nintendo Switch.

@TheBevilHimself for 305.00$ you can buy a new, in-box, Nintendo Gameboy Launch Edition Grey Handheld System on eBay or you can find someone who has a somewhat clean but broken Gameboy for like 10$

@TheAtari_VCS Mine has been dead since I got it days ago. Can’t connect to the store or anything else. How about a timeline for a fix? Or should I just return it and get a Nintendo Switch?

@NintendoAmerica What is the problem? I don't have the game but I think the photos are insect cartoons.

@ToniOkami @Nintendo It's not the size. I loved the Duke and the joycon size isn't an issue It's the pairing/unpairing when playing multiplayer. It's convoluted and painful!

Has Nintendo ever shared why their online service doesn't offer voice chat? Is it to protect the kids that play their games?

@8BitorDie @90sRetrollector Well, he did have horrible image back then. Gaming was correlated with kids at the time and that was dealing with Baby Boomers having issues with him. It was the correct move on Nintendo to step away from him. It sucks, but that’s business and capitalism.

Animation community, But also the wrath of Nintendo fans. Illumination’s future is very unclear right now but it looks like Sing will be just fine reputation wise, Until certain YouTubers crash the party that is.

@MarcoAnimeGFX Ohh yeah. Nintendo/Pokémon always doing some extra ****. I was about to get all my other games back no problem. I don’t plan on getting a new switch anytime soon so I should be good from now on

@Yardovich1 @robnmccormack True, but I believe it will nowhere be as much trouble as Nintendo asking Square AND Disney for Sora

Hey @NintendoAmerica, very frustrated and disappointed with your customer service. Purchased a copy of Bayonetta 2 for Christmas as a gift and the download code for Bayonetta included was for the EU. Nintendo Support says they can't do anything about it. Alternatives?

I've decided to be mean in the end of 2021 - I won't even pretend to care about why they wake up late, why they aren't eating, and their rich people problems anymore. Like the two idiots still complaining to everyone in their perimeter about how 1 nintendo switch isn't enough

And even if I do track down a copy the money isn't going to Nintendo for such old games. It's just so baffling? Like I can only imagine it's a copyright issue, because they could just do the bare minimum when porting and most people would be happy.
