Contacted Nintendo Support regarding the Wii Shop's solid white screen issue and it seems to be an outage issue with the servers that control the Wii Shop + eShop

@NintendoEurope How generous Nintendo. Service is a joke. It should be a much larger library available. Gamepass and even ps+ makes a mockery of this Nintendo service.

@retrogameremix @Nintendo Even with the Booster Pack from MK8DX, the Expansion Pass is still not really too worth it, ur better off doing some netplay on an N64 emulator than throw more money on an already mediocre online service They still have yet to fix it...

@Brandino1103 @Simpson_761 @ELDENRING So you can add them to future purchases other than just a seperate "approved items" list, thats nice. Only problem is their visibility in the store. I had no idea I was accruing them through purchases, thought it was just Gamepass quests. Nintendo makes things easy..I like easy.

@sincespacies The Wii Speak Channel ceased functionality after May 20, 2014 since the free Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service was discontinued. 🤔

@Mr_Brilla @soundtrapstudio My son and I figured out how to stream and record from his Nintendo switch to a chromebook. It's a bit of trial and error but we got it to work!

@IGN I share a big family 4k sub with a couple of mates. Nowt wrong with it. Nintendo actively encourages this. I don't see the issue. As soon as you can't do that anymore I will be canceling my sub.

@BobWulff Whoa whoa whoa..... @NintendoAmerica added games to its online service? I mean, weren't we just blessed with F-Zero for N64? The expansion pack is so not worth it......

@NintendoEurope Nintendo online Expansion pass is just an overpriced glorified nostalgia cashgrab, plus the online service is garbage as **** even with good internet. At least put the money in better services instead of turning them into tho 69th version of a mario game

@vvarrrgs @NintendoAmerica Nah this is likely going to cause the game to be dead in the water,this is its secound delay (likely from internal issues with recent events being used as an excuse) and it now no longer even has a release date,its effectivly soft canceled because this conflict will likly1/2

@SNobusuke @TropicalMaku AM2R would have been fine if Nintendo wasn’t remaking Metroid 2 themselves. GF shut down the Pokémon ones because they had a patreon iirc and thus were monetized which was the issue. GF let’s fan games and rom hacks exist without much issue usually.

@beemoh @JoSofte @NintendoUK All "mega drive" games on the NSO service are all the genesis roms so they can run at 60Hz with no squished screen, all games on the service use the genesis covers to let users know this
