@Monty_Pla GF and Nintendo deserve a lot of **** for the frame rate issues, but it's nowhere near as bad as Cyberpunk was. I played on PS4 on release and it was literally unplayable for me. I could barely get through menus. S&V work fine. I'm hours in and no game breaking bugs.

Back up to 10 things when you had to say "BOY!" a lot of things (like contacting customer service or learning about deals/free games and get no sales while the Pokemon Company/Nintendo makes a lazy game and claimed it =P )

@_KarateBoy_ @bobo5224 @NinEverything You don't get thanked for fixing what you shouldn't have broken in the first place. The game shouldn't have been released in the state it was. Those games should've been delayed for 6 months. Nintendo won't die if a major title doesn't come out in November

I just watch a litte bit of @KiteHasegawa-san's Pokémon Violet gameplay last night on Twitch. It was cool until Nintendo decided to crash the game. ******' Nintendo crashing Scarlet and Violet and makin' #PokéFans sad and angry.

@BlazingDiancie @Miilkywayz I've said it once. I'll say it a billion times. In WHAT universe do you live in where your subordinate dictates what the deadlines? TPC is OWNED by Game Freak, Nintendo, and Creatures. Which means that Game Freak and maybe Nintendo are the issues at play.

Welp I think I have to send in my switch to have it fixed. Tried everything I’ve read online and none of it works. Worried that if I send it into a local repair shop and they can’t fix it Nintendo won’t fix it. Fingers crossed it won’t take too long

@CaseyPie69 @Strippin And it what way is it NOT quality? The story is fine, still goofy Nintendo. The sprites look better than they ever have, they quality of the moves and their visuals is great. I mean what is actually wrong with the game? Because it has some performance issues? It's a brand new,,,

@pmc871 >> Pokémon games for Switch (Scarlet Version and Violet Version) came out last week and Nintendo Switch hardware can just barely run them (meaning: Tons of lag and glitchy). The upcoming "Switch II"/Switch Pro whatever it's called will most likely be backwards compatible

@I_d_k_m_a_n_ My problem with his post is that most of the game that developed by Nintendo aren't broken nor unfinished, far from it. It works as you expected, despite the lack of content to keep the player base stable overtime after launch.

@NaijaxGamer @trey_cobain @PostUp_bbb Brownie points? I own a playstation, nintendo and an xbox console i don't have a preferred platform. Saying games have no issues because you didn't experience it is redundant, because others did experience issues.

@Monty_Pla There are definitely bugs, and I had one crash. Nintendo and GF are not getting the heat they deserve by far. But there's no comparison to how absolutely horrendous Cyberpunk 2077's release was.

Nintendo’s pretty generous with platinum. Going back to an 8 year old game to fix a typo nobody will ever notice just because the creator wants it feels pretty uncommon

@HannahAlOthman Your router might be the issue. If I plug in an ethernet cable I get 40gb. But the WiFi has so many devices now it can't cope. At any one time there might be three mobiles, 2 TVs, a hifi, a couple of ipads a pair of digital scales, a printer, two PCs and Nintendo.

Nintendo really need to add Smash 64 to their switch online service with online play already. Or maybe I’m better off just waiting for n64 Fightcade.

@NoirsPhantasy @NintendoAmerica fix the bugs. Add in shiny field effects and noises. There. Does that help?

@LimitedRunJosh @LimitedRunJames Gotta agree. Yeah, it runs worse than any Nintendo published game I’ve ever bought, but it doesn’t have any impact on the gameplay. It’s actually really good despite those issues.

@Sigilynk It could just be extraordinarily clogged with dust, found a tutorial on how to actually clean it thoroughly. If the fan itself is broken, though, you're gonna have to open the Switch up to assess how bad it is. You may wind up having to send it in to Nintendo.
