If the Nintendo E-shop could not be broken for 5 seconds that’d be great

@NintendoAmerica The thing is i already didnt think the 20€ per year was worth it, cause i started up the nes/snes games service once, realised i already played all the good ones and stopped using it and anytime i tried playing stuff online it didn't work propperly AND I HAVE AN ETHERNET ADAPTER

ok let's take bets on how long it will take before Nintendo fans forget that the $50 Nintendo 64 games on #NintendoSwitchOnline seem to all have audio issues, slowdown issues, input lag, and any number of bugs

@NintendoAmerica If you’re gonna get the $20 online service for basic wifi connection, that’s okay. But in terms of the expansion itself, Literally spend your $30-50 on literally ANYTHING else.

@SeahatsareScary @Matthasnocuts I’m not too picky about the visuals honestly, better than throwing money in Nintendo’s mouth for a service that is highway robbery

@treystar679 @NintendoAmerica Imagine thinking it's Toxic to want more value for money. These are *** old games that they've been selling since the days of the Wii. Being vocal about issues is the only way to get them to change.

@treystar679 @NintendoAmerica How is it toxic to want an actual decant service?

@NintendoAUNZ @NintendoAmerica @NintendoEurope please use the revenue from the NSO Expansion Pack to fix the online stability issues on N64 games, since online play is the main reason why we pay for the service in the first place (the audio lag also triggers my sensory issues)

You mean to tell me Nintendo is charging extra for playable titles from the N64 on their online service, but they didn't even properly emulate that damn thing's controls?

@chalkitdown @Nifterific @ModernVintageG You're misunderstanding what the service is then. Nintendo is giving you original titles to stream. The effort you want isn't being provided as they never offered it.

@DejaVu_FGC @NintendoAmerica It is! I'm going to check my bank statement in a couple days. Hopefully I'm able to be able a expansion member by time I do check it. Then all will be good otherwise I'm gonna have to figure out how to get refunded if I can't use their service.

@NintendoAmerica I got it but disappointed with it, the WiiU emulation is even better, has a lot of Judder maybe due to frame rate, a crt filter or smoothing filter would be great, I’m sure you’ll fix these issues but it’s upsetting being hyped all day and then let down

Of course @NintendoAmerica can’t figure out their expansion pack service for people who stacked years of the regular service. If I upgrade today, my yr cost is $28, but it expires 10/22 as opposed to my current plan which expires 1/23, so I lose a few months.

@ShugoScav I don't know who's crazy enough to buy the new extra expensive version but god damn it one would hope Nintendo puts all of that money into making an online service that does not suck

@Redheadreplica that crop scared me for a sec, I thought you spent 50$ for a 1 second input lag emulation of the nintendo 64 (also it's missing the C-right button)

@NintendoAmerica "New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise DLC starting 11/5 at no additional cost" My foot! you tacked this onto the service to make people pay 25 bucks more of a service that's not even worth "30", let alone "20".

@ZenlightenedOne Sadly, my Nintendo switch is broken and my 3DS' charger quit working. So, I'm only stuck with my phone and my PlayStation 4.

@Mayro2020 i wonder if the test team for this actually sit down and see these errors, but nintendo doesn't do anything to actually fix it.

@SamborgShitPost @NintendoAmerica I'm lucky with switch online as I don't get much lag is any, I am wondering if N64 and mega drive or (genesis) never got the name change will suffer.

@Uncle_Deckard @Nintendeal Yeah woo-hoo, drip fed content for an online service that’s held together by sticks and glue. And given Nintendo’s record with updating NES and SNES online, they won’t ever give us games we actually care about when they can actually be bothered to GIVE us updates.

@Speady99 because even if you adore the N64 with all your life, the Switch online lineup is still attached to a rubbish service. It's not like it's the entire catalogue or even a sizable offering. Nintendo's ****** online was easier to ignore because it was cheap, now it's not.

@WavePrism_ @NintendoAmerica Im pretty sure there's no paid service that isn't monthly. This has to be the first yearly only.
