The reason why Nintendo didn’t fix the Joy-Con drift issue with the Switch is because it was an elaborate set-up for Doki Doki. #JustMonika

@1128_Lizzie Oh snap. I'm sorry to hear that you were affected. Hopefully Nintendo puts out an update to fix those who were affected by this.

@springofwisdoms I really miss a time when people didn’t whine about game dev updates constantly. You got an E 3 and some magazine articles and that was it. The problem isn’t Nintendo, the problem is needy fans who feel entitled to know every time a developer takes a ****.

@SirSaltyChip @Not_feelingitrn What measures this? Lmao Steve is kinda the most likley of any non Nintendo fighter and FF already had content. I'm bias but like I can't think of a single more hype inclusion for me lmao, legally, time wise and fan service speaking anyway ha. To each their own but not surprising

@scorbuny But like, it's odd, even in the Wii era when they were making loads of money, they were still pretty good at this sort of thing Nintendo's level of issues with the Switch are something I've never seen with any previous Nintendo system

If none of the solutions work for you, please note the error code may be related to a temporary network issue that Nintendo is working to resolve.

@NextGenPlayer I think nintendo does. They force us to pay money if we want to play smash online. That wouldnt be a problem if it worked. Its laggy as ****. Nah, i really, REALLY understand why people hate nintendo. But to each their own🙌

@Nintendo please tell switch development&design team to FIX THE SAVEGAME MANAGEMENT. Allow us to export savegames to the sdcard or another device freely, just as @Sony does :) It is completely broken and forces us collectors to install a CFW just to do it.

@TheLilsneak Yeah I know.. Hehe :3 . I was scared I wouldn't be able to play Splatoon 2 anymore, since that one had a lot of connection issues since I accidently updated to 12.0.3, and many more Nintendo Switch features

Wondered why SP in Ultimate is dogshit until I remember it released around the same time as Nintendo’s paid online service and they gotta justify that somehow
