Hey @NintendoAmerica could you at least tell us whether or not #XenobladeChronicles3 is actually sold out, so I can stop looking at your broken *** site, which I've been staring at for like 8 hours now?

@ljlrj @NintendoAmerica your first issue thinking this was xenoblade lmao not every tweet has to be a xenoblade tweet

@Azure_Bolts The first NES was a front-loader instead of a top-loader like its original Famicom-self, because Nintendo wanted it to look more like a "Computer" than a video game console. They didn't want parents to remember the video games crash that happened shortly before.

@Synth_Gaming89 @FreeSpaceYou @NinEverything Dragalia had an issue where it was almost never advertised along with being region locked both limiting the player base significantly. That combined with the game being really generous all led to Nintendo shutting it down

@SomewhatGroovy As a software engineer / architect it's extra infuriating seeing these things happen. Scaling is a solved problem and there's no excuse for a company Nintendo's size not to do things right.

After: - Hours of waiting in line multiple times - The purchase button not working for 15+ minutes - My Nintendo account not being set to the correct region - My card initially declining the purchase for fraud - The confirmation email coming in 70 minutes later I finally got XC3

I think the way Amazon handled the Ps5 problem is good. It'll make it harder for bots to get them. Honestly Nintendo should do something similar for future special editions or games that are in high demand because it's getting kind of ridiculous with how much this is happening

@TJG_art @heartofintrigue @NintendoAmerica they sure are solving the problem by complaining about it on EVERY SINGLE NINTENDO TWEET!

@Blun_Z The problem is it being a Nintendo Store exclusive and their website being trash Imagine a Nintendo Store exclusive with a mainstream series like Zelda, Mario or Pokemon 💀

They don't care AT ALL about cuphead at the moment, they just want Nintendo to look at them and listen to them saying "HEY, FIX YOUR WEBSITE AND GIVE US THE PREORDERS YOU PIECE OF-" Cuphead was the unfortunate Victim, being posted, while Xenoblade 3 SE, goes unattended. 4/4

@WeebGamerDude42 @NintendoAmerica There is an aspect that the social media team have power over: communication. There has been none; no announcement of the preorders going live, no mention of the site being down, no explanation of the technical glitches. The issue hasn't been acknowledged, and that's the problem.

@tommiefkntomm Everyone started like screaming in replies of other games tweeted by Nintendo like 😭 The main issue was the Nintendo website handled traffic terribly and people were stuck at their screen loading all day

@NintendoAmerica This is such BS I’ve been trying all day. So many errors! Won’t go into cart, saying I’ve reached the buying limit when I never got one in the first place. I was even on the site at exactly 1:30 pm eastern! This is such a joke!

@NintendoAmerica Still in queue. That 3rd time in queue for this was just for today. The 1st day they attempted to do pre-sales on this game, the site broke. It’s broken again.

@gilgamesh310 It's a paid subscription service that I mainly tried out for Banjo Kazzoie. Nintendo Switch Online is where most my Switch gameplay comes from lol.

@NintendoAmerica I keep getting an error when I check out. The site isn't taking my card info. Like, come on! Why does this company make things so difficult to obtain? With Xenoblade Chronicles 2 SE, I was able to just walk into Best Buy and pre-order with no problem.

On another note @NintendoAmerica how do you fumble the bag twice like wtf why is it a my nintendo store exclusive if it wasn't that way this wouldn't have been an issue or at least a big an issue as it is I love yall but do better plz

@SpacyCatgirl @OctoRayyy @_CSenpai_ And let's not forget that it's Nintendo, they're bound to do fan-service for the longest time. This is why I feel that all that hype of this ******* thing in Splatoon is so jarring to the core and unnecessary. And you can like it with power to you. But I just feel...off, about it

@JasonRi92357009 @Wario64 Thanks, the person from Nintendo Customer Service said to keep trying and that they know the issue, because everyone that hasn’t gotten one that isn’t a scalping SOB is calling them

@NintendoAmerica I’m trying to pre order the Xenoblade chronicles 3 special edition and I was wondering if you will open pre orders again? Or sell the bundle in stores? The my Nintendo site is just not working and has not been for hours now.
