@NintendoAmerica Dear Nintendo, This is why scalping happens. The more of your switchs that are bought up by scalpers the less actual customers can buy. This will drive down your software sales. Please fix this. Sincerely, An actual customer

@NintendoAmerica Fix the things that need to actually be fixed, please and thank you. We don't need this to be an Apple situation where all there is is appearance changes and camera specs.

@indigoultimate @NathanielBandy1 @NintendoAmerica Yes, scalping is going to be a huge problem, like with everything the past 18 months. There is a new wave of people who want to try to make “easy” money by buying up all the stock of desirable things and then jacking the price up when the stock is half bought by said people.

@Maxtrippypain @PlayStation I'm not saying the DualSense doesn't have drift (granted neither of mine do) but it's kinda dumb to bring it up when literally every controller that gets released has a stick drift issue. Even the all powerful Nintendo messed up their joysticks

@pokemonnext @NintendoAmerica So is a minor upgrade at this point, this could have easily been released alongside the switch lite. And even worse, this version still has no fix for either the joy cons OR the fact that you can't load it while its standing up. This just feels worthless

@Ohijah @NintendoAmerica All I want is for games that launched on the switch 4 years ago to be playable without randomly getting huge lag spikes.

@mcquack306 My perspective. I haven’t owned a Nintendo console since Game Boy. Seriously. After they announced I assumed they’d be taking all their IPs to the “next level”. I was wrong. 90% of my problem with them is I’m a scorned customer. They pulled a bait and switch, pin intended.

@Walrus_9000 When I was playing his games he was Sony exclusive so that's why I always associate him with them now. Back then it was Crash, Sonic for Sega, and Mario for Nintendo.

@MrElliot1210 @Nekoboy94983673 @NintendoAmerica I didn't see this tweet before replying to your other one. You gotta chill bestie. The ethern adapter is not a solution to the problem that is; The OG Switch dock is severely lacking in ports. It should have both a USB port (multiple ports, actually) and an ethernet port.

@MintyMinun @MrElliot1210 @NintendoAmerica Adapters cost $10-$20, the OLED dock is around $70. You can go waste your money if you want. Also, you don't have to disconnect your controller for your adapter. Connect your adapter from inside the dock and your controller on the outside USB ports.

@Noahcg3 @terrestrial2187 @NintendoAmerica Yeah it is a decent upgrade for the Switch compared to the original switch not the version 2 switch with the battery upgrade n some of the little upgrades to fix problems of the launch model

@mcquack306 And i didn’t but that day one. Waited for a discount. That’s Nintendo’s SECOND biggest problems. The fact BotW can’t be bought at less then $20 4 years after release is unacceptable.

@BosniaNpc @OrdinaryGamers It's good to criticize billion dollar companies by exposing their faults. The online service sucks and you should even have to pay for it in the first place, Nintendo completely ignores the joycon drift problem, their games are almost always full price, I could go on

@CatBark897 @mattswider So what? They still haven’t address the drift issues. Screw Nintendo!

@zebracakes016 @NathanielBandy1 @NintendoAmerica I guess in my area switches are abundant so I don't really see that issue. A few months ago maybe
