@aShigekuni_ @PjCFrink92 @wootton120 Absolutely nothing, they are just being the exact thing they claim to dislike. People are just unhappy with how much Nintendo is asking for the service, as $50 is alot for some roms and the privilege of using our own internet connection. No one is "getting it cancelled" 🙄🤨

@senfo @SPBever $50/year. Nintendo is using it as an excuse to get their online service price on par with their competitors.

@MrJeremyMiller1 Yes, your island is backed up every day several times but Nintendo has this weird policy that you only get access to that data if your Switch was lost or broken. Messing up the data transfer doesn't seem to be covered but I'm probably overreacting it will be easy enough.

I'm (already) saddened by how many who were upset with the pricing of the NSO Expansion Pack will still end up getting it. I've seen comments in different places say, "I'll still buy it, but I won't like it", and... I feel like that's the problem. We need to let Nintendo know …

@MeltedChrome So @NintendoAmerica announced the service goes live on the 25th but the only people that will be able to actually enjoy it are the ones on the west coast. Makes zero sense as to why they wouldn't do maintenance during the day

👑 Monster Crown update v1.0.2 just went live on Nintendo Switch! This update fixes issues such as the campfire freeze bug, an issue where players would get stuck on random tiles and many, many balancing adjustments! Download and play now #MonsterCrown @crowns_dev

@OppizFireburb OKAY, now to be fair those were LEGIT Nintendo 64 textures on those tress. But if they main game was good enough I can look past all those "issues" for the sake of a good game... Then Sword and Shield reached the half way mark of the game...And the story... oh, no.

@TThunderowl @danieldoobs @NintendoAmerica All they’ll do is send you new ones so they can inevitably drift again and that still doesn’t change the fact that they haven’t fixed the problem with joycons after 4 years and counting.

Nintendo fans in 1999: I just want to use a ******* duel shock controller Nintendo fans in 2021: better buy that N64 controller that can only be used with the premium game service before they’re all sold out.

@Packini_UwU @NintendoAmerica not to mention they are basically putting a bandage on a broken arm. They think oh this will do while we still have online communication and so on.

@webafrica Will do so now. Just to be clear, this is to fix the issue we are having with connecting our Nintendo consoles? There was a suspected double natting issue.

One of the (many) problems with My Nintendo rewards is that I've been wanting the Metroid Dread posters, but I have absolutely no way of gaining more coins. I get my 60 per week for logging in, but that's it. And I'm discouraged from claiming anything else so I can save. Dumb.

@NintendoUK Hello, I recently bought Diablo 2: Resurrected on the eShop and was disappointed to find that the game is literally unplayable due to ongoing server issues at Blizzard. Why has my request for a refund been refused when I have been sold a game that doesn't work?

@fourhman The problem is that only two studios throughout all of Nintendo care about diversity, EPD 5 (Animal Crossing & Splatoon) & EPD 9 (ARMS & Mario Kart). The rest couldn’t be bothered, & it shows.

@TalkNintendoPod The Switch's overall online service hasn't inspired much confidence in Nintendo's ability to provide a cohesive cloud based gaming experience. Here's hoping that they are working on making improvements.

@renhoneydrop I had the OG Switch for years but never played handheld, then I gave it to my girlfriend for her birthday and bought a Lite when ACNH came out. I eventually upgraded back to the full Switch when my Lite got Drift and Nintendo wanted to charge me $100+shipping to fix it lmao

@Neoxon619 I hope that this is the last remnants of an old Nintendo that simply never thought about this issue, because this game was effectively planned out and done years ago.

@spoopyamity @HowlingWolf456 @NintendoUK I don't have an issue with people being happy for the release, i'm more angry at Nintendo taking people for a ride.
