Nintendo Switch Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Nightfall (@Nightfallgamez) reportedSo, pretty much Nintendo has decided Nintendo Online is going to be a subscription service primarily for legacy Nintendo content.
-
Gwen Stacy (@SpiderGwenSV) reported@NintendoAmerica For a minute I thought Kirby was gonna meet crash and ask to join smash
-
MockRock (@MrMockRock) reportedNintendo really just took a look at their online service and said "we're being too generous here," huh?
-
NintendoSwitchEan (@NintendoEan) reportedI was hoping for GameCube and Wii games to come to the Nintendo Switch Online service. I don't like the N64 nor really the Genesis and I don't know why Sonic 1 is not being added? All I saw is Sonic 2.
-
Alex (Anji Stan) (@RathalosBOI) reportedReally wish I could just buy Nintendo Virtual console games outright instead of being forced to pay for Nintendo's dog water Online Service.
-
Callum (@Callum89927389) reported@ZeldaMasterLuke I'm glad we are getting a Nintendo 64 emulator for the Nintendo Switch Online but one problem is that we already got Super Mario 64 on Mario 3D All-Stars so why is it going to be in the emulator when we already have 3D All-Stars to play Mario 64
-
Joe (@FlameLOGNET) reported@Laidy_AF Agreed. But for most it seems like they just settled for modern Nintendo games. I'm...part of the problem. But I have the ol xbox if I want better stuff.
-
Vanitas (@Vaenitas_) reported@NintendoAmerica If it really will be the very last DLC character it has to be something big. Something like Phoneix Wright, Fortnite (People really wabnt this wtf) wouldnt be the best choice. Master Chief, Sora,Waluigi, Crash or something would be great to finish this game
-
The Lamp (@BourbonBobJimmy) reportedI do find it funny that news outlets were talking all about Gameboy stuff for Nintendo Online and it just so happened to be the Mega Drive. N64 sure, likely but HECKING SEGA? Paves a good way forward for just an all retro online service
-
Dohiwario (@Dohiwario) reportedDirect as kinda mediocre for me. I pretty much only cared about Kirby and KOTOR. N64 and Genesis stuff is cool, but too bad it's Nintendo doing Nintendo things with their subscription service
-
Fox Gabanna 🎮 (@Foxgabanna) reportedAlthough it did have some highlights such as N64 cloud service on Nintendo online and Bayonetta 3. But everything seems so far out.
-
Qunne (@Qunne15) reportedSo they give nintendo online dlc for their garbo service...thanks just fix yo garbage service
-
Tyl3r (NO DELTARUNE SPOILERS) (@izanabf_) reportedThe thing that hyped me the most about the Nintendo direct was that I can play deltarune ch 2 without problem
-
Diehardgamer1983 (@Diehardgamer83) reported@JuuJuugurl And the Switch is also getting a port of the original Knights Of The Old Republic as well as #Nintendo64 and #SegaGenesis games are going to be added to the Nintendo Switch Online service, and a remake of the original Actraiser.
-
seewalker (@meicoomonvm) reportedi hope the nintendo switch version of deltarune chapter 2 has the new patch for doing the cheat glitch in the spamton fight
-
A Person (@SenorGooba) reported@autumnull_ Wait, how can an *** be too big? That's a problem? Damn you, Nintendo
-
ex: ishikami edition❗ (@exiiiin) reportedthe nintendo subscription service for n64 games is ******* bullshit, and people will still buy it either way
-
All Black Lives Matter (@MauriceB___) reportedNah fr. @nintendo @NintendoAmerica pls fix your online serves to where it is playable. We would be way more excited to play these titles online with people if online was better 😓
-
Chris (@CHR0MME) reportedi think nintendo is the first company in history to ADD DLC to their own online service
-
Krbay (@EberNeedsALife) reported-Mostly Sleep -3D Kirby Pog -Nintendo announcing 64 and Genesis games through a paid service makes me angry because it should just be a free store and also should have came out in 2017. -Bayo 3 Pog.
-
Bahamut Zero 84 (@Bahamutzero84) reportedThe live action Mario cast is so wild that we're just glossing over Nintendo charging us extra for the worst online service, just so we can rent N64 games from them. Also, not having a 6 button MD pad is a joke.
-
Austin McCoy (@KimihitoFan115) reportedSo @NintendoAmerica heard all of the problems with #NintendoSwitchOnline and said "Here is a more expensive version of the service with two more consoles ". Sigh... I really don't know what more to say. Of course the games are also gonna come out at a snail's pace as well.
-
pedreiva (@pedreiva) reportedI JUST REMEMBERED THE FACT THAT NINTENDO NOW HAS SEGA GENESIS GAMES AS A PART OF THEIR ONLINE SERVICE. THAT IS SO FREAKING FUNNY.
-
DylanDoodle (alt :D) (@_DylanDoodle) reported@AndrewIG Theyre really charging extra for 64 and Genesis games with the Online service. Nintendo pumps out boring, dumb **** in their directs and then sprinkles one or two good announcements. We get like 10 rpgs and one or two Nintendo IPs. The directs are progressively getting worse
-
kat 猫 (@nekop0psicle) reported@NintendoAmerica after my 132 years of service to Nintendo. I've decided to move to Playstation. Where their shows are very much better and I feel better about myself. Giving me the games I deserve.
-
O'Dell Harmon Jr. (@ODellHarmonJr) reported from Queens, New YorkFighting NYC rush hour traffic on the subway to the airport, and trying to watch the Nintendo Direct was not working, but y'all's tweets kept me in the game
-
Sorcerer Lance (@SorcererLance) reportedso with the Genesis being on Nintendo Switch Online... that partially makes the Switch Genesis Collection obsolete... considering the input lag it had
-
LOSTmanSOUL (@LOSTmanSOULL) reported@geronimo_73 i didn't see on Nintendo Direct @princeofpersia i'm soo sad and broken :(
-
Crispy Crunchy (@CrispityCrunchy) reportedWhy did Nintendo reveal games that will eventually be on their N64 service rather than just adding them at launch? It makes no logical sense.
-
Christian 'Reggie' Wait (@ChrisReggieWait) reportedDo you think Nintendo should be charging extra for their online membership service to access #N64 and #Megadrive titles?
