@ACWorldBlog I still hate Bunny Day. So far, got more sky eggs than recipes. Would it kill Nintendo to fix it so that we receive the recipes first and then the eggs, not a mixture?

The... nice? thing? Is that I looked up a video on how to replace/fix the vita analog stick and it apparently is decently easy? Still terrifying for someone who doesn't know **** about tech, but it's slightly better than nintendo's ****** practice.

@RadsYT2 Crash 4 was originally released for PS4 and Xbox One, but it was released on other platforms (Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S) earlier this month. I believe it was also released for PC two days ago.

@chchcharli3 @NintendoUK Point being when official advertising says end of march and fans have heared nothing since febuary. Nothing official has been posted to say their delayed or that theres been issues. They Need to speak up!

Wished @NintendoAmerica would give us a service in #AnimalCrossingNewHorizons to rename our island. Id prefer that over starting over just to change the name.

@amanda_blueeye @chchcharli3 @NintendoUK At this point I'm no longer buying the offical cards. I refuse to PAY for that kind of customer service. Ill stop by on ETSY pay the extra for the art and hard work, support a small local buisness and be done with this offical card buisness. Also the ships new leaf editions.

@Chief80X @CentralScruty For sure. Definitely not doubting the issue. Let's hope sony takes a better route then nintendo by basically saying deal with it. How bad is the drift btw?

@Colteastwood Xbox- Game pass, interacting with fans online Playstation- variety of exclusives , PS Now Nintendo- sue their own fans, expensive games that you can finish in 3 hours, horrible online service , no netflix-like game service

@PufuuLive Ah, the basic formula for a fake Nintendo Direct leak: the next Smash Bros. fighter (typically Crash Bandicoot), full BotW 2 info, and Metroid Prime 4. Also, didn't Mario Maker end content updates like a while ago?

@Lizzy73025449 @chchcharli3 @NintendoUK Oh I know. Totally agree. Its infuriating that we have to ask customer service this stuff and get vague replies instead of anything official. Its not like we're asking for a lot we just want an update 🥺

@CyanRoxanne It's honestly the same issue Nintendo Consoles have dealt with since the Wii. Developers don't take the time to actually rework their game for an entirely new console. Instead they just "port" it. "It just has to run, it doesn't have to *run well*" mentality.

@ElMegaNice100 @MediumGF @JoyconTheDrift Nintendo infamously said once in an interview “Joycon drift is a problem but it doesn’t affect anybody”. This is an account that posts clips of what joy con drift causes.

@Masterge77 @DrLavaYT It also problem of the franchise popularity itself letting Nintendo get away with poor graphic pokemon games with reused animations instead of stepping up they milk people with same games just changes few things adds new pokemons, few spirtes, and nothing much besides okay story

@NintendoAmerica My favourite part was that five days after I got it buttons already started to break (despite my care), after which I had to RMA it three times, since my issues were never fully fixed. At least the second and third RMA took four weeks each, I don't remember the first one exactly.

Microsoft was arrogant enough to switch out Nintendo’s name for theirs in the Banjo Kazooie intro, but couldn’t be bothered to fix the game’s many other flaws.

@ahnahleesa plus nintendo tweaked the spawn rates when they realized there were issues last year. hopefully spawns remain moderate after quarantines and lockdowns are lifted
