@Nintendeal All Nintendo has to do is just guarantee all the “ULTRA RARE” cards in every single pack. That will lower the value since they won’t be. Problem solved

@RedLasagna @NintendoAmerica Ik it’s made by Disney but it would make the snes online service worth it for all members. Instead we have these sub par games that I’m pretty sure 90% of people never heard of.

@ADavatwal @SamusHunter2 a capcom rep instead of crash activision will never accept crash in smash because they are rats and they certainly set too high prices look at the current dlcs, i don't think that nintendo paid a lot for one dlc

Does anyone play Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled on the Nintendo Switch? I need help on how to U-Turn in the game.

@BlackSupremeKai Problem is, their software just couldn’t compete with Nintendo’s arsenal of quality content. And with the Vita it was twice as bad. Nintendo makes gold out of dirt, and competitors to this day struggle to compete even with bigger budgets and advanced technology

Some rupee balance issues and only four major dungeons but overall a fantastic Zelda experience. It pains me that we don’t get more 2D Zeldas... Maybe Nintendo can let Capcom make another 2D Zelda... Please, Nintendo...

@Rolig__ not necessarily toys for bob has nothing to do with the license, activision could still get with nintendo and pass him over plus crash is more popular than ever rn so why wait

@mrevaporation And if you say "crash can't be a Sony character because he's on multiple consoles" bruh what video game franchise (that isn't a Nintendo franchise) hasn't found their way to multiple consoles at least once!

@MojangStatus Is there currently an issues with Realms via Nintendo Switch? I have been stuck with the "Building terrain" section of the loading screen and have tried restarting, logging out of my Microsoft account, as well as reinstalling the game. Any suggestions?

@mrevaporation I mean...we have alot of characters bit owned by Nintendo so crash can make it unless they get over the legal stuff

If Apex Legends doesn’t resolve this issue of not counting my progress on Nintendo switch i want a full refund for my money back from buying the battle pass. I hadn’t been able to play since the season update with only 82 days left. @Respawn please fix this issue

@AshGamingZA @BlackIsleStudio its the same issue that happened to battle brothers. Nintendo can be slow in giving the greenlight for games to go up on the eshop. took battlebrothers a few weeks before it finally went up.

@themodernnmom The first game I ever remembered playing was Crash Bandicoot on the PlayStation 1. Also Connors Adventure or something like that on the Nintendo 64 I believe.

The problem with male idols in splatoon 3 is that Nintendo will make them as fruity as possible and then excessively make sure nobody thinks they’re gay

I think a system update fixed my switch lol It didnt do its sleep error and the battery is woking so far I still have the nintendo label too

@LucasN2TD1 @NintendoUK Not necessarily. Just a game that isn't so bright that my eyes begin to strain while I'm playing it. I don't remember this being a problem in X and Y or Sun and Moon, it seems to be a Switch Pokémon artistic change.

Is anyone else on Apex Legends Nintendo switch not getting progress counted? Or nor service on the Dallas Texas server? This is quiet frankly forgive my language pissing me off. We’re 82 days into the new season and I can’t play.

@BowtieShyGuy @PushDustIn Yeah I did notice and consider that. Only problem is that every other game available I'm going to buy cheaper physically! I'll probably have to wait for the inevitable Nintendo 33% off discount in a year or so..

@ChrisBeBored @Sora_Sakurai I can see both but imo Rayman has a higher chance since those Ubisot- Nintendo collabs in the past. Doesnt mean Crash cant get in.

@pewpewpikachu Gameboys have survived wars, and somehow modern Nintendo still has this problem.

@tallgamingman Please do not instigate problems in your comments because you do not like Nintendo's actions or decisions. Imagine if they did not provide this, and Texas Instruments made a Switch app. If you were mad about 8 bucks, imagine 70+ for a Switch TI graphing calulator app.

@_Ryanmiller70 @NintendoAmerica This still isn't a good thing Nintendo can't even give us basic ******* features like voice chat or parties and the 2 service that comes with their ****** online subscription has a dripfeed library of like 70 old ****** *** games this is why we need emulation-

why have the compatibility issues with @Samsung TVs and @NintendoAmerica switch docks not been fixed yet? I’ve never been able to play my switch on the tv and it sucks considering I bought so many multi player games that are just collecting dust because of it

@CameronRitz Yeah at my store it hasn’t been a huge problem about restocks since there is a Nintendo switch shortage as well a lot of costumers just leave sad . It’s mostly the Pokémon collectors who we are scared of
