@vietzomb @gaming17432 Not to mention Nintendo isn't even getting any money eitherways, they dont take a cut from pre owned copies or repro copies (Which isn't even legitimate ownership either) so how is it any different? It's abandonware essentially, it's only a issue with recent games

@IGN people are gonna be quick to bash Nintendo for this, but is was probably a licensing issue

@animalcrossing @acnhbackup Bless you, Nintendo. My Switch failed last week and I needed this service. It worked without a hitch. Now please look into this for other games in case of theft or loss, like Pokemon and Splatoon 2!

@JJorkRoyale I wouldn't go THAT far, but I think Nintendo has a serious disconnect between their corporate mindset and their fanbase. They are merely looking at sales data, which does NOT represent the fanbase, but instead the userbase. That's their primary error at the moment.

How the eff do I fix drift on a joycon? Also where can I get the part for a broken r button? I tried sending into nintendo for drift and it came back more broken. I'm mad cause it's a neon green one and they only offered to replace with a gray

@AFriendlyGemRGG Nintendo for some reason thinks porting over the Wii U library to Switch is a good idea which.. is a huge problem in this era- luckily there’s barely anymore Wii U Mario games to port- what are they dying to port Ultra Smash? Lol I feel like we might get something new hopefully

@bobservo It’d be great if your purchases weren’t tied directly to the hardware and you could just redownload them, rather than needing prescience to know when to transfer data before a fatal hardware error, but I’m sure Nintendo knows best.

@PoorlyAgedStuff Context: The switch is selling very well even with the major joy con drift issues that plague Nintendo

@RainbowIce9 @NintendoAmerica Ones that barely fix any bugs or glitches and only add a few better textures that you could get on an emulator? I mean sure, it's great to have the games on Switch, but couldn't something have been fixed with them?

@mariokarttourEN I hope this acts as a wake up call for Nintendo- to fix the ranked cups and make the competition more fairer. A few people in my friends list have dropped out since Berlin tour and one left this tour :(

@SwitchdOnGames hi. Just wondering if you can help with a problem playing online season against other players on my Nintendo switch. Every time I connect with a player it says squads don't match and cancels the game. Reseted the squad loads of times. Any help greatly appreciated.

@WestinPlaying My only problem with this is re:Video Games, and the physical disc not coming close to containing the game anymore :( Praise Nintendo, I guess?
