@aShigekuni_ @PjCFrink92 @wootton120 Absolutely nothing, they are just being the exact thing they claim to dislike. People are just unhappy with how much Nintendo is asking for the service, as $50 is alot for some roms and the privilege of using our own internet connection. No one is "getting it cancelled" 🙄🤨

@NintendoUK Hello, I recently bought Diablo 2: Resurrected on the eShop and was disappointed to find that the game is literally unplayable due to ongoing server issues at Blizzard. Why has my request for a refund been refused when I have been sold a game that doesn't work?

@MrJoshuaPack It's just old games and new games. Right now Stadia is having an issue that I hated about the initial Nintendo launch. It just getting a lot of indie games that I don't have interest

@zornsllama I mean, Nintendo has some form on seeing piracy as a quality-control problem. That's where the whole "seal of approval" program and the GB trademark screen on boot come from.

@webafrica Will do so now. Just to be clear, this is to fix the issue we are having with connecting our Nintendo consoles? There was a suspected double natting issue.

The literal epic gamer moment when Nintendo issues you an official warning over you posting a custom design of the pornhub logo for the public to use lol. I'm doing a community service my guy, and I assume the at least 30 others I saw will also be taken down? Just curious~

@fourhman The problem is that only two studios throughout all of Nintendo care about diversity, EPD 5 (Animal Crossing & Splatoon) & EPD 9 (ARMS & Mario Kart). The rest couldn’t be bothered, & it shows.

@Neoxon619 I hope that this is the last remnants of an old Nintendo that simply never thought about this issue, because this game was effectively planned out and done years ago.

@TThunderowl @danieldoobs @NintendoAmerica All they’ll do is send you new ones so they can inevitably drift again and that still doesn’t change the fact that they haven’t fixed the problem with joycons after 4 years and counting.

👑 Monster Crown update v1.0.2 just went live on Nintendo Switch! This update fixes issues such as the campfire freeze bug, an issue where players would get stuck on random tiles and many, many balancing adjustments! Download and play now #MonsterCrown @crowns_dev

One of the (many) problems with My Nintendo rewards is that I've been wanting the Metroid Dread posters, but I have absolutely no way of gaining more coins. I get my 60 per week for logging in, but that's it. And I'm discouraged from claiming anything else so I can save. Dumb.

@JeevesBun Link to the Past is out on switch sort of if you get the super Nintendo emulator thing. But you have to subscribe to the service.

Imagine one day that Nintendo upgrade their online servers so we can have dedicated servers instead of disconnecting or lagging. This thought of mine is impossible tho 😔.

@renhoneydrop I had the OG Switch for years but never played handheld, then I gave it to my girlfriend for her birthday and bought a Lite when ACNH came out. I eventually upgraded back to the full Switch when my Lite got Drift and Nintendo wanted to charge me $100+shipping to fix it lmao

@senfo @SPBever $50/year. Nintendo is using it as an excuse to get their online service price on par with their competitors.

@TalkNintendoPod The Switch's overall online service hasn't inspired much confidence in Nintendo's ability to provide a cohesive cloud based gaming experience. Here's hoping that they are working on making improvements.

@Chris50016 @SuperMarioT_YT Nah, ports would take too long to make and licensing with Disney is most likely dogshit. The investment is not worth it and the Nintendo cartridge prices are not helping either. Its a lot of small issues that made a big one for them which made them not do it.

@spoopyamity @HowlingWolf456 @NintendoUK I don't have an issue with people being happy for the release, i'm more angry at Nintendo taking people for a ride.

@MrJeremyMiller1 Yes, your island is backed up every day several times but Nintendo has this weird policy that you only get access to that data if your Switch was lost or broken. Messing up the data transfer doesn't seem to be covered but I'm probably overreacting it will be easy enough.

@JeevesBun I never got to play it! Is that the new Nintendo switch N64 service? Honestly I'd get it to play Banjo Kazooie again o:

@MeltedChrome So @NintendoAmerica announced the service goes live on the 25th but the only people that will be able to actually enjoy it are the ones on the west coast. Makes zero sense as to why they wouldn't do maintenance during the day

Nintendo fans in 1999: I just want to use a ******* duel shock controller Nintendo fans in 2021: better buy that N64 controller that can only be used with the premium game service before they’re all sold out.

I get this post could be seen as bait, but I'm genuinely excited to see Nintendo expanding their online service. I'm very excited for the joy my loved ones will experience too. I'm fine footing the bill for it on their behalf with the family plan.

@BoundaryBreak So many ways they could've changed this mini-game for the better. Button spamming, inputting button patterns, not including it at all... but I guess Nintendo wants to cash in on broken joy-cons. I still think we're entitled to a mass lawsuit from the damage to our palms from N64.
