So last week with all of the dog issues and I haven't really been feeling all that great, not loving the new cancer medication to be honest, I had a manic moment and I bought a Nintendo switch which came today. And I put a game on it and I am clearly not very good at games,

Less than a year into having my @Nintendo switch and I've already fixed one Joycon, and have to fix the analog stick on another one. Not real happy about it.

seems like nintendo is improving everything except the input lag so far. at one point that'll be the only thing left to fix and they'll have to fix it.

@TigerLoveHeart @Wario64 Yikes, I never have autopay. I only buy subscriptions of things as a code. Like my Nintendo sub was a code for it, it cost a lot less and doesn’t come with these hidden problems of auto charges, etc..

@NextGenPlayer How did this game get a 97 (started at a 98) with all these performance issues? Botw got it but at least you understand it’s a Nintendo thing ffs even on pc this having issues. Fromsoft gets a pass as usual.

@thicc_stick_boi Been calling out Bamco for years. They're literally the Nintendo of goddamn 3rd parties right now because they don't give a ****. Tales of series on PC was a ******* goddamn mess, it took maybe 7 months for their *** to look into their bullshit to have a half assed fix.

@9thMRB Yeah. That's an issue when it comes to these types of reviews and I'm some ways, I think this might be the crux of the argument of "Nintendo bias" that @Entercheatcode talks about. It's not the outlets giving a game like BotW a high score BECAUSE it's a Nintendo game. Rather, 1/

@NinEverything any time I'd ask what was wrong with Nintendo's 64 emulation, they'd show me the water picture. When I asked for any other examples, they'd defer arguing the price, even though it's pretty fair (around 3$/month). The only real problem was not having a month to month option.

@MobileGamer_Pro @notpalceu @CRTpixels Early Super Nintendo models have known issues with their analog output, which makes this a pretty unflattering comparison for CRT. Just as one example, notice that the pink background appears orange immediately to the right of Bub.

@EpesJeffrey @Pretzemilia @NintendoAmerica And who the hell are you? Lol u know I was trolling… you haven’t been on Twitter enough to not tell what’s bait and what isn’t. JEFFREY! Seems you got other issues going on. Deal with that, instead of saying weird **** you creep.

@Solidrev1 @Vivala_ketchup Yeah it's only Sony and Nintendo who do that bull ****. I only have ps plus because when my power goes out my Playstation shits the bed. Can't believe ps5 still has issues with power cuts. You can keep your quick resumes on xbox for ***** sake after moving the the console.

@ShinobiRk @UltimaShadowX @OnTheDownLoTho True, I forgot about the debt issue. Would be interesting if they just made another smaller internal studio for them at Nintendo to get around that and essentially accomplish the same task.

@Wario64 I can't checkout in the Nintendo store. My cart says it's lonely and has nothing in it even though it has multiple items that I added. Nintendo said it's a known update problem and that they are working to fix it. Too bad the rewards will be sold out by the time it's fixed 🤬.

I’ll never forget that time @NintendoAmerica ripped me off though and charged me $65 for a game I was downloading, the download had an error and didn’t actually download and then they said they don’t see a record of my account purchasing.

@MildlyMildtv tbh I think it's a combination of both. Also they have a problem with not getting help from other nintendo development teams. If they need help developing these games I don't see why they don't get help. They have the money to get more help.

It's so funny that we can say it took Nintendo months to fix a Nintendo 64 game… the year is 2022… lol.

people complaining about how long it took for Nintendo to tweak and fix the N64 online emulator probably have no idea how much of a hot mess the N64 was to code for y'all should be content enough that it had been tweaked to run more properly to begin with

@apeasylum_ @DeckVsSwitch Netflix possibly snubbed Nintendo early on before success was assured (Wii was a major success, 3DS was successful but possibly limited in video user growth and the Wii U bombed) and that could be causing an issue similar to what Capcom experienced after reneging on the Capcom 5.

@GenmaTheSamurai @NintendoAmerica Unbelievable @NintendoAmerica you will do just about anything to bilk a buck out of us for games that are almost as old as my kids are. Do the right thing and let us buy Zelda ocarina and Majora's mask without holding us hostage to your overpriced online service

im gonna be honest literally the only problem with nintendo switch sports is that its coming out way too late in the switch's life span to be as impactful as it could've been. if it came out in place of 1-2 switch it wouldve been a smash hit

@OhNoItsAlexx Would that make it similar to Nintendo's online service with old games?
