The fact people can literally win in smash online when I have a 3 stock lead and then they have to start camping and ******* with the internet shows Nintendo has no idea how to run an online service

@nescartridges It honestly makes me wonder what design Sakurai would go with for Crash if he ever gets into Smash. Obviously Nintendo is smart enough to not even touch the tattoo parlor looks, but I am curious whether Sakurai will go for the classic PS1, his N Sane or 4 aesthetic for him.

@GAMER1984dude @AmiiboNews And if he gets doxed and someone gets hurt because they SWAT him or some ****, I’m the one in trouble for leaving the breadcrumbs. This is the end of the line. Nintendo stocking more than 72 a store would help way more in combating this assetry.

@Hyrule_101 @NintendoAmerica You lucky. Lucky dog. 🥺 the rest of us have been high key suffering. I myself have gone through THREE controllers ALL of which drift. My BOYFRIEND has also gone through TWO. I bought two pro controllers to alleviate the problem and THOSE drift as well. 😒 there are lawsuits

@MojangSupport I sign in on my Nintendo Switch, and then try to access the world / server list. It took several minutes to load and did not load at all on my first attempt. Are there still known issues with Minecraft on Nintendo Switch?

Just had to get high to tell my older sister I was not going to help her buy my niece a phone since she spent $400 on a Nintendo switch for her birthday. Not my problem. Last time All I got was "no" when I texted her. So much Clarity when high

@ThumbRapid1000 No problem! I just don't want you to end up with a fake card and the net is notorious for fakes. Looks like Best Buy and Target carry the 512gb cards. Some are even Nintendo branded cards. Still checking other places. Hope this helps!

@nescartridges It honestly makes me wonder what design Sakurai would go with for Crash if he ever gets into Smash. Obviously Nintendo is smart enough to not even touch the later 2000s looks, but I am curious whether Sakurai will go for the classic PS1 look, his N Sane or 4 design for him.

@Nibellion @Nintendo I'm ready to preorder my Super Switch. Are BotW 2 and MP4 launch titles? If so, I want those too. Where do I put my money? I dont want to chasing illusive inventory, having enough trouble finding a Series X. Let's get this done!

@galuade_ fwiw 8bitdo controllers are really nice on switch, nintendo pro controllers (used to, not sure if it got fixed) have issues with the dpads not registering some directions properly

@KachewPete I think a system as hackable as the Switch is (so walking a literal tightrope) shouldn't be prioritized over online that has built-in lag frames regardless of whether you're using a LAN adapter or not Like yeah good for you Nintendo you stopped the silent minority of cheaters ig

@PlanetNate1 @PlayStationUK @PlayStationEU Still have to pay Xbox membership though, I have no trust towards Microsoft I use to have a Xbox 360 and I hated it due to a lot of problems like the buttons being different and harder to memorise since I was use to the controls of Nintendo console buttons being the opposite

yo @NintendoAmerica @Nintendo please fix your terrible online in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Last patch, you introduced some sort of encrypting in the netcode that tracks for hacks in shooters, making your game much slower online. Are you trying to make it worse or do you not care

@Nicomagi normally I'd tell you not to be a part of the problem, but the nintendo licensed adapter is 30$ which is insane. I guess you could buy a cheaper 12$ one but it'd probably set yr house on fire.

@MojangSupport My second attempt join a realm resulted in an error. “Failed attempting to join realm. Please try again later.” This is the first time I’m playing on Nintendo Switch since the update.

So yeah, no archiving going on right now. Hopefully this is a weird error and not Nintendo shutting down the site early in retaliation.

@coopercooperco the only reason I even considered it was for susnshine but if I recall correctly they didn't fix like any bugs and slightly changed a couple things so if I ever play it it'll be through [COMPLETELY LEGAL MEANS DONT SUE ME NINTENDO]

If ur tag is nnyyxx I am so sorry for that match. Ik Nintendo apparently made online worse this patch and causing even MORE random lag spikes, even if there is good connection. So wish that could’ve went better

Has anyone else's target amiibo order went through and they weren't able to get them? Target took money out of my account. When I went to the store, customer service told me they were out of stock and my money would be refunded eventually. @NintendoAmerica @animalcrossing @sanrio
