@bizzaroren @20_Sided_Guy I called Nintendo over a faulty WiiU tablet almost a year into the life of the Switch and they were still doing repairs :v I think it's safe to say they'll fix your Lite (though I think the self repair might be cheaper!)

@whatifmarirose Nintendo sued them for using their name. They had to change their name and the design of the vehicles to not have any problems.

@NintendoAmerica I really hope they don’t fix the shiny rates and other stuff like that like they did with PLA

@Powergannon @damgentemp The sad thing is that this kind of problem is always present, it just changes fad by fad. By the end of the Nintendo DS era and start of the 3DS era the thing was that normal games were dead because VR and AR was the only possible future for gaming.

@LgendaryMudkip I get that this is not a big deal for someone that has money and is willing to spend them But I think that nintendo (or the gaming industry in general) has a problem with money. I bought splatoon 2 bc I loved how the game looked. And after getting home I couldn't even play 😭

@NintendoAmerica Great a trash update that doesn’t fix the performance. How hard is it to get the game to run at 30fps.. it already looks awful I figured that would be enough to make it run well lmfao

@CrashSpyroBanjo @Canadianguyehh @SeekingAlpha Not really, this isn't confirmed and both Matt Booty and Phil Spencer have confirmed games aside COD would be exclusive The next Crash and Spyro game (not that Wumpa crap) will indeed be exclusive to Xbox and Nintendo, only COD is guaranteed for 10 years

@SimplicityMarx @NintendoAmerica Yeah don't think the fix comes with this one, I bet this was already scheduled, maybe the next one will be the fix if that does ever happen

@NintendoAmerica Please fix the issue with the mass outbreaks of Zorua and Ditto. These outbreaks don't spawn, even when there's the correct icon on the map.

@ShaunMusgrave I didn't realize japan had thanksgiving until now, oops still curious as to why they didn't just put out a statement going "yeah this game is rough we'll fix it soon though" rather than just... wait until a random night. Nintendo being themselves again i guess

@NintendoAmerica Fix that chugging and lag, and make it run as smoothly as 3 year old switch games, and I’ll buy both versions the next day Fam.

@NintendoAmerica Maybe don’t let gamefreak release a broken buggy game without play testing it a **** ton over a couple years before releasing it :/ Swear every game they’ve released so far have been rushed

@CalmEnvy_FF You already bought S/V? Well I just found out Nintendo gonna released a Version 1.1.0 update for those games. Hopefully they can fixed on those technical issues. Let’s go Pikachu/Eevee is remake classic of RGBY games with a dash of Mega Evos mechanic in it.

@xKiIIua @WolfeyGlick Nintendo didn't issue a license to swt, so if the series goes up, there's a chance it could be shutdown midway, which would mean even greater loses, while is true alan had a hand at keeping other tournaments away from swt on grounds that swt didnt have a license, it stills

@JFishDude @PajaroTyler @NintendoAmerica And this is why they'll keep releasing broken Pokémon Games.

@grunesdragon Good news because Nintendo issued a statement a patch tomorrow is coming to fix that, with later patches to address game stability. And I personally would love an option for the EXP Share. I hate having it on, but acknowledge the quality of life improvements it brings to others.

@MisterAJ93 @MatttGFX @MargieJoJofan If you have a decent pc up to wii shouldn’t be a problem there a lot of guides it’s just usually downloading stuff and putting files where they are suppose to go but Nintendo makes it difficult to find game files these days but it should be possible

@NintendoAmerica Bullcrap. Pokémon games are bugged and broken on every release, you've learnt nothing. But you got your money so why bother right?

@NintendoAmerica Did you fix the frame rates? The laggy weather? The unplayable areas that lag so much you can barely move? The constant crashes? Clipping through rocks/walls and falling through the map? Pokemon spawning inside of rocks/walls?

@Throwaway69_420 @PownicMania5000 The problem with that is given Nintendo’s development history compared to Scarlet and Violet doesn’t add up. I do believe that the fault is mainly on GF and TPC and not Nintendo.

@NintendoAmerica I hope the textures and performance issues will be fixed very soon. Looks like the feedback was useful to wake up the parties and fix the game.
