@twistedwisp -joycon drift. If problems with it pop up in the lite, nothing can be done except to buy a new lite or send it to Nintendo for repairs, as opposed to buying new joycons But still, it's nearly double the price of the lite

@FortniteStatus Could you fix the f*cking voice chat on nintendo already? I love how emic ignores a major issue just because only a minority is having it. Switch players already habe enough issues but now I have to restart my game everytime I wanna talk? Seriously?

@kitsu_aria @PokeliYT @NintendoAmerica I think curse is better than rock polish here because it increases the good stats and torterra is already slow anyway, so being more slow isn't much of a problem.

@weaverc1234 @adopt_a_dogg @NextGenPlayer What MSFT would get in return is access to another couple of hundred million potential customers..(Which is what MSFT care about).. Sony / Nintendo would want more in return to allow the service on their systems, as it would cut into their 3rd party sales.

@Copperlockscum @SEGAbits Sega of America should have never existed, it's always been the thorn in SEGAs side and the source of all trouble, it was given too much deregulated power in comparison to Nintendo of America - the reason why the latter were so successful is because the Yanks were kept in control

@adultingpotato oh noo that’s horrible i’m so sorry 😭! ive had drift on 3 separate pairs of joycons so the problem deff still happens with the regular switch but it’s just easier to deal with. it’s so unacceptable tbh, have you contacted nintendo to see if there’s anything they can do to help?

@AppleSlipper Well that's more a general Nintendo problem, not specifically Mario but yeah still. That Skyward Sword port was not very good. Overall, I'd say it ends up somewhat better than the original, but the remaster has some serious problems, and for $60 that's very rich.

Honestly the Nintendo account making the post about Turtwig had me thinking… I almost picked Turtwig on Pearl in 2007 but picked Piplup instead. Used Chimchar in Platinum. If BDSP fixes the type diversity issue the originals had, may use Turtwig instead of Chimchar

@Mads_in_Zero @DarkWorld97 @GameDataLibrary Just to add something, i think the biggest problem is the rest of us do like the switch quite a lot, but what nintendo does with it is very much criminal, i still cant believe the mario port was the biggest selling preorder on amazon hahaha

After only one month, my Nintendo Switch dock doesn’t show any display on my TV unless at 480p. I had my PS4 for 4 years and never had one problem. Such a waste of money if the docks get faulty so easily. 🤦

i really hope Splatoon 3 fixes the bug that Splatoon 2 had. Wahoo World never ever had frame dip issues but then Nintendo made a balance patch (no new content) and all of a sudden you get frame skips doing certain special weapons or at certain areas.

@FortniteStatus I am having an issue where I bought the crew pack on my Nintendo switch account and got all the Vbucks but when I went to my ps5, even though they are the same epic games account I am missing Vbucks on the ps5.

@TechnicalJim @JoeMerrick I've seen that first hand and that's a huge problem not just in the Pokemon Community but the Nintendo fanbase in general. If I hate it you are "x,y and z" for liking it and we can shame you for doing so. These things called subjective opinions scare gamers.

@sickeningjar I'd agree that, in terms of console gaming, the crash was a worldwide phenomenon, it's just that we were too distracted by affordable home computers and hobbyist coders producing great games, we failed to notice! But Nintendo are responsible for the resurgence of console gaming!

@JustAnLED Lets be honest if microsoft wanted gamepass on sony and nintendo they have to actually become a subscription service/ a publisher of third party games and close and shut down thier first party games

@KLamityTTV @IceHammer8 @NintendoAmerica It doesn't matter lmao, the new stuff doesn't look that much better, arceus will probably still look terrible, and nothing can fix bdsp's terrible artstyle.

@itsgalex_ I honestly feel like the dictionary is thrown out the window for anything Nintendo really. Like cyberpunk released in a crappy state. No one says it's a unfinished rushed game that took 6 months to fix

@PhillieTV The fact that your Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is broken means that you have been playing way too vigourously. I’ve had mine since the end of 2018, and I’m having no problems with it.

@rikupone I don't think its too big of an issue. My only annoyance is going back and forth from nintendo and xbox controllers. The buttons being backwards on switch still confuses me sometimes.
