@thejuice027 @NoGravity_Games @thejuice027 had the same issue-figured it out. Make sure you are using a Nintendo account that already has a game from Gravity Games purchased there.

@lolhypocrisy Thanks for buying the DLC! This is a save file issue we have already found and fixed, the patch is being processed by Nintendo and should be with you in the next few days - keep checking for game updates.

Btw, to all Isabelle Mains out there: If they don't fix AT LEAST one move of Isabelle, we're storming the Nintendo head office and take down anything smash related.

@RMSolitayre @SgtM_Yuusha So okay, my official answer now is "Yes. It is well known that Arwing pilots have they lower legs amputated, to avoid blood issues with high G forces, as depicted on the SNES cover and Nintendo Power. This was true until Nintendo retconned this fact for unknown reasons"

@NintendoUK Your customer support is basically non existent. Live chat not working. I have a big problem and need some help from customer services.

@kilikikero @ItsAdamBurman @Dr_Scaphandre Nope, it’s due to Nintendo using an annoyingly useless Broadcom BCM20734UA1 KFFB3G chip which are ehh at best and not the greatest thing, the other problem is Nintendo servers are just utter rubbish.

@MojangSupport My Minecraft world won’t let me play unless I back it up, but for some reason it claims I have insufficient storage space even though I have nearly 20GB free. This is on Nintendo Switch on the new 1.18 update (Bedrock). Is this a common problem?

@NintendoUK Total disappointment on being a new customer to you. The worst Customer chat I had today in chat support. The analyst said ended my chat without even addressing my question! Is this called customer service? Hope you take action on this!

I am having absolutely no luck with ordering things recently. First Nintendo/Royal Mail, now @UPS_UK being completely incompetent with abysmal customer service. Telling me what I already know/completely missing the point?

@SilverSaturn64 @chuggaaconroy I think the issue is just that Nintendo doesn't re-release a lot of their Gamecube games for some reason

@WarThunder The texture quality fix means the one that happens after 4 matches and makes the game look like Nintendo 64?

@GameXplain Nintendo aint gonna just hire any random dude to fill a quota like other companies. They gonna hire people who are both skill and competent. So long they can do that, it shouldn't even be a problem. Hell, nintendo tree house are mostly white people and they suck ***.

@Kotaku What's the problem, unless you're saying that Nintendo is actively discriminating against women in management positions. How many women are applying for those positions.

@prettypinkviper @Vanessaissweet the article is extremely fair reporting, the only thing that could be considered an actual criticism of nintendo is the concluding line that no company has outlined specific actions to be taken to address the issue and that’s fair concrit

Known as the pokemon berry glitch, it would cause issues in Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire due to a mistake in how the game counted days and years. Nintendo issued an *insane* amount of ways to fix the issue by packaging a fix with every other gen 3 pokemon game.

@IsSamerow If it weren't for the misinformation and uncertainty that came after Oddity's rebrand and Nintendo's prior takedowns, this wouldn't be such a big issue people have. It's less about having something against fanworks and moreso trying to protect people from the spooky C and D.

@Fennaixelphox @mattihaserotu @petergotbored I think Nintendo themselves *might* own the patent for the sound battles? So THAT could be an issue... but yes, they don't have the rights to the franchise as a whole, Itoi does, apparently.
