@hoazhee Yes, they said on their official Discord that there is an issue and they are in contact with Nintendo to fix it asap. Until then, Paladins won't work on Nintendo Switch.

@mama_dusa @KevSimmer @Kotaku Unfortunately batteries lose their charge over time this isn't a Nintendo problem it's a battery problem and if they were too use way better batteries the consoles price would rise higher than it's already rediculous price

@MorbidsDisaster @ArkLifeNews @ComplexMinded I know they've patched the game. They did try to fix some things, but there are bugs in the game from when it was beta. At least it's not an exaggeration to say that they never tried with the Nintendo Switch. LOL, that had 1 update period.

@LucarioOcarina It's fine if he thought it was cringy but saying that it's Nintendo to go back to a style of commercial aimed towards kids when this is the only time sounds kinda petty. Like it's just his wording he needs to fix.

@ArkLifeNews @MorbidsDisaster @ComplexMinded Maybe cedric can explain to us when the Nintendo Switch version will be updated. He's obviously seen these tweets. What about the update for the ps5 that was supposed to be done in december? Will wildcard ever fix the ferox for that poor guy?

@Nonintitlement criticism are good actually. if we didn't criticize nintendo they'd probably end up charging us like 100$ for their old games. i mean they already do (COUGH 100$cad 3d collection) but fr if you think criticizing a megacorporation is bad you need to start thinking abt real issues

Hey @GAMEHelps my Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons are having the usual “drifting” issues. I paid extra so if there was any problems I could get a new set. With shops being closed is it possible to get a new pair?Would love to get some new ones ASAP, it’s very hard to play at the moment.

@AzuriteMaybe @NintendoAmerica I've already played the game on Wii U, and the Bowser Fury stuff doesn't seem like enough new content for me to pick it up. I would only really pick it up if I could play online with friends with little to no lag

@midnightoccult @NintendoAmerica I get it, but they only said that theyd add events, tho, they are very slow at adding things theyve hinted at (AKA: Blathers), so I get what your saying in a way. Online, the only playable game is Splatoon 2, so I cant defend that, I just hope they fix it with the new servers.

@bowtet @NintendoAmerica @animalcrossing It would be nice if Nintendo fans would stop letting them off the hook for all of these issues. The problem to the majority of them the Switch is their first Ninte do console so they don’t even know the quality of their games ACROSS THE BOARD used to be much higher. Oh well. :/

@KirbyIsDatBoi Arlo deserves only failure. He and other Nintendo YouTubers are one of the biggest problems plaguing the Nintendo fandom. There is no room for him. He should delete his Twitter and YouTube channels.

@marage101 @chrissyteigen If you have a decent place to put the console and dock, the only thing you might need to fix (Nintendo was doing this for free pre-covid) is buying a new set in case it breaks. The controllers are small enough for kids and there’s more kid friendly stuff.

Why does Nintendo’s customer service number not have NINTENDO music as their hold music? Big missed opportunity 0/10 stars

@NintendoAmerica Does the popularity of Luigi not indicate more should be done with him over Mario? What about peach? Why must DK be the only character that has fully broken free of Marino’s shadow- even Wario representation is down this generation! Tis’ a shame

@Cringecastgay @NintendoAmerica I mean they don’t just go play on a different system. They are still emotionally attached to a company and act like they are in a broken relationship with them.
