Lets be real I don't think Nintendo really cares to fix the joycon drift issue or even cares that it is a problem

@NintendoAmerica Hey I’ve been getting the error code 2123-1502 when ever I’ve tried to download something. I’ve followed all the steps that your website said and nothing worked. Is there something else that I can do?

@MiilanDew @jnlgame @Romudeth Take it up with Sony and Nintendo for not adding game pass to their systems. Smartphone and PC manufacturers have no issue with it

@DieHardDragoon It happens. And for the record, I haven't noticed any errors in your posts so far. It's a big show and plenty to process. I'm just going ignore my wallet and fight the urge to preorder anything. (Nintendo Switch Pro might change my mind. Don't have one yet. *GASP* I know.)

@TheRealBohman Sumn bout crash getting in smash, and p5r getting on switch and a bunch of **** that sounds too good to be true, debunked with an E3 trailer on the official Nintendo YouTube that wasn’t included in the leak

@forestminish I think the problem is that GameStop capitalized "New" next to Nintendo Switch. Nothing else in the sentence is like that.

@takanashikiara Yes, lets react to the Nintendo Direct together ! Hopes for Crash in Smash

I feel like E3 has yet to deliver on anything truly exciting so far. There have been a few awesome games announced but nothing that has "broken" the internet yet. Only saving grace is gonna be Nintendo or maybe Bandai-Namco. Fingers crossed for something cool.

I wish we could stop pretending that Phil Spencer doesn’t care where you play XBOX games because he absolutely does. XBOX exclusive = Everywhere except PlayStation and Nintendo. I have no issue w/ the practice, I’m just tired of ppl acting like he’s infallible. #XboxBethesda

Meanwhile, another day has come and gone, and Nintendo STILL refuses to comment on Switch Error 2123-1502. Closing in on a full week for some people who have been dealing with this error and essentially not being able to download updates or what they’ve bought. Bravo, Nintendo.

@JoseBer56296540 @Sora_Sakurai @NintendoAmerica If they don't when new games for the online service gets announced or when Byleth got into Smash then I doubt they'll do it

@NintendoAmerica why cant we download any game or update anything without getting an error? Cant play anything on my switch.

I see a lot of people screaming about how bad E3 is this year and how Nintendo will "save" us. In my opinion, Microsofts conference wasn't that bad at all. Others? Eh. Unless Nintendo give us Crash Bandicoot in Smash, they'll probably be a massive let down as well tbh lol

@APC_Cipher The DK land still hasn't opened, with there being a strong chance it wont open if nintendo land isn't successful (which is looking to be the case due to the worsening of the pandemic in japan, the fire in universal hollywood, and epic universes construciton issues in US)

@ds2chan @NintendoCanada I'm having the same issue. Did everything on the troubleshooting page and nothing works! Same issue when I try a system update as well. Kiddo's 5th birthday today and he can't play his new game 👎🏻.

@Faeyas @NintendoAmerica I don't know how accurate this is, but I've heard the Japanese version was plagued with bugs and issues. Maybe they wanted to make sure the international version didn't have those same issues.

@pcgamer Are you having a mental issue @pcgamer ? You want them to kill off what basically launched XBox to what it is. Their most memorable character for 20 years. That's like asking nintendo to just kill off Mario or Sega killing of Sonic The Hedgehog.

@nathanisbored1 some of nintendo's later dpads (gba sp and ds in particular) are much better about that, i never had those issues when running metroid zero mission. but yeah snes dpad is kinda screwy and apparently it gets worse the more worn out the controller is

@themagicpunch Hi, was searching GBG. The latest Switch update is borked, removing your SD card can help. No proper fix until Nintendo releases an update.
