@NintendoAmerica The only thing this proves is that you guys took our unhappiness with the Switch Online Service and did not consider it.

@nintendolife Is Nintendo job to make the service good and convince the customers of why they should purchase the expansion pack service.

@104Admirer no no when you get a physical game, you press + and go to the My Nintendo Rewards Program to get gold coins, but right now it's not working for DR bc of the delay in some stores

@ErickADub N64 emulation is really hard. There's no one size fits all solution and Nintendo's emulation of their own games on the service is hit or miss. That's why it's taking so long.

@tidefallcrossin I recently sent one of my controllers (not a Pro) back to Nintendo to fix the drift, and got it back pretty quickly. It was fairly painless. And free!

@NintendoAmerica i disagree because you guys left out a bunch of great games on the NES and SNES: The Power Rangers games, the Batman games, Final Fantasy, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Killer Instinct, Star Wars, etc and were not included on the service.

@Colteastwood I highly doubt it's Microsofts problem if they were able to put gamepass on switch and PlayStation i would bet they would do it in a heartbeat But Sony and Nintendo just not letting them

@Alexie_Spl @Sloshyowo I feel like the problem is that if you give every weapon it's optimal kit, then Nintendo basically has no reason to add any more weapon logs because they'll all just be worse than the optimal kit

@infamous_linnie One small issue, Italy isn’t real. It was made up by Nintendo for the Mario games.

@nintendolife By releasing only one N64 game ever other time pretty much proves that Nintendo will be putting not that many games on N64 games on NSO. If they're gonna be charging us 50 USDs a month at least put in more on the service and not the bare minimum.

@nintendolife Duh, Nintendo needs to be on a set schedule with this service especially since theyre asking for more money and plus be the retro equivalent of Gamepass

@FortniteStatus @FortniteGame my children are having issues with getting their Fortnite crew and battle pass on Nintendo switch. Is this a common issue with the recent update? The Nintendo eShop claims they have no pass. PS4 here is fine. They’ve had crew for months now.

@NintendoAmerica Honestly the only thing this convinces me to do is to cancel my subscription of my Switch Online service all together and after gamers hear about this, i am sure they would too.

@CaliforniaSalvo When the NES came to North America, Nintendo wanted to sell it as a toy rather than a video game, thanks to the video game crash of 1983. But Toys R Us and other retailers didn't have electronic toys so much as "boys' toys" and "girls' toys," so Nintendo had to decide which.

@NintendoAmerica Now you tell us that after we were displeased with the service, you're still going to charge us $50 for the service and only upgrade one game at a time. I mean as a gamer I would be happy to pay anything you asked if I had more games and the games I want to play

@Colteastwood He can kick rock. Why must Xbox games be on PlayStation and Nintendo but he doesn’t have an issue with Nintendo and Sony keeping up a walled garden? That’s the weirdest take Xbox is literally everywhere without the need to be on ps or Nintendo.
