Something's Wrong Here
(@error217) reported
One frustrating thing about @NintendoAmerica is that they are terrible about getting back for customer service issues. They keep charging me extra tax, recognize it shouldn't be happening, but I've heard nothing from them.

@mojangstatus @CornerHardMC Having trouble for a few days now trying to replace or reset the world on my realm on either Nintendo Switch or Windows 10. Is this a known issue? Thanks.

@MKRoadMaps @OneFollowPerDay @MadeForMario fair enough, but its not abysmal. And nintendo charges $60 for skyward sword on the wii, so the fact you get galaxy as well as 64 and sunshine for the same price, (remastered apart from 64) makes it actually a pretty decent deal knowing nintendo lol, so price isnt the problem tbh

@Danielle_Mar549 @victortinoco200 @SmashBrosJP Crash is more likely now than ever E3 is a western event Steve is the Microsoft rep of the pass Most big western IPs have realistic humans Nintendo not care about Rayman is a good choice but Ubisoft forgot about him Activision and NOA are buddies, look their accounys interactions

@NintendoUK I will never be ordering direct from you again. Promises to their customers that they can't keep. What's the point in a pre-order if they can't get you the product? Awful customer service and a company that accepts no responsibilty and doesn't care about its customers

@ReseteraTakes There's just three problems with this take. 1) WFT and G&W are "wild pulls". Characters included for weirdness factor. Also G&W is one of the oldest Nintendo mascots. 2) Nintendo can't get an Overwatch character without getting permission first. 3) It'd be Tracer anyway.

I didn’t know that @Nintendo was taking down #mario35 and I’m crushed. One of my main sources of pandemic joy gone. Small problem I know but still. @NintendoAmerica Any chance it comes back?

I'm having to take back a new joycon that I got 4 months ago because of drift. If Nintendo doesn't fix joycons on the switch pro I'm not buying it

@AshPaulsen @NintendoAmerica If the majority of Switch users canceled their Nintendo Online service because of this, Nintendo would bring it back. Money always talks.

@emblasteon I thought this was a Joy-Con exclusive problem. I really hope Nintendo's next generation of controllers completely fixes the drifting problem.

(@metagaim_ep) reported
oh yeah also huge middle finger to nintendo for having only a ONE YEAR OR LESS warranty on their products that barely even covers most of the hardware issues that arise. products start breaking right after the warranty window ends and repairs w/o warranties are insanely pricey-

@ARRevolution @NintendoAmerica I already bought all those games and consoles back when they came out, and now they no longer work, which isn't my problem. I deserve to be able to play them again without paying. games as a service is a cancer. I bought them, they're mine, and I'll play them.

@yui_hatori I remember quite a few people have an issue with Mario64 vids getting claimed cause some person put a claim on the game’s music that wasn’t Nintendo. They’ll sample a small bit in some random track then claim a vid to take all the money it would earn, it’s incredibly scummy.

@NintendoUK your customer service chat representative are pointless as they cannot help with any queries. I have been waiting for a refund for over 4 weeks now and Nintendo still haven't managed to investigate and resolve it. Shocking!

@ShowtimerHD @CamRicheson @IGN Ps5 is outpacing PS4 DESPITE covid and manufacturing issues. Xbox is tanking, Yes. Has been tanking since it came out. Only saw some success with 360. PlayStation and Nintendo CONSOLES continue to break records. Microsoft consoles don’t sell.

@thomasnet_mc Hacked switch owner, but I've never tried it out with SM35. I've wiped my serial number before to see if I can connect to other Nintendo servers like Splatoon 2 to avoid ban, but I still get errors. Sorry.

@NintendoUK 3 month old switch developed fan fault. You refuse to replace so sent to you to repair. Returned today with same fault!! Tried customer service chat & they said they couldn’t help. We said not good enough (politely) and have been blocked from your live chat!!! Unreal!

@SparksEchidna Still ashamed of myself for buying it and therefore being part of the problem by pretty much telling Nintendo that this business practice is ok. I really need to stop doing **** like this

@TForthedub @ShiinaBR It might be a glitch. Could be on epics end where they done goofed and took it out of the in game shop, or nintendos services bugged out and teeter it from the in game store. Try purchasing it directly from the Nintendo eshop if you haven't already.

@NintendoAmerica can you please fix the game it's not fun if you can't beat a boss no matter what you try.... (okay maybe with optional super bosses but a main story boss come on)

@pkintheuniverse That's what I meant lol, I want gamepass to be successful so that Sony and Nintendo have their hands forced and have no other choice but to offer a service on the same level, it's a great option to have considering most gamers have the play and trade mentality.
