If you have a problem with Mysplaced looking like Link's Awakening on Switch you should probably get over it. If you have performatively @'d the Nintendo Twitter to defend the brands you worship from imitation, you should probably get a life. You are genuinely ******* pathetic.

@race_penguin Whatever helps them sleep at night. I just know that I can play all Nintendo and Xbox games on PC and most generations of PlayStation too. Let's give Sony a chance to fix that before the modders fix it for them lol

(WARNING: LONG NERDY RANT) Amazingly, it seems like Nintendo actually fixed their credit card issue with the new update. I was finally able to place my first physical rewards order since December. I wish I could say I felt better about Nintendo now, but honestly I really don't.

@Youknowme_tdj @N2NOther @Griggity Every first party PS5 game this year was a delayed game from last year. If there weren't issues last year, they'd have the same amount of games this year. I guess it really all depends on where devs were at in the development process when the pandemic hit. Nintendo delayed BOTW2.

last night I dreamed that nintendo released a "canada bug fix" for animal crossing because the seasons were broken. For context it's only JUST started to be spring where I am, it still drops below freezing sometimes at night

@VampyAcid ahh sure in terms of online. all nintendo needs to do is fix that, but you know them. still not really a fan of MV's "leveling up a character" and what these equippable perks might be. and I'd be more interested in their 1v1 rather than the 2v2 they're pushing

I think most likely Sunshine and Double Dash are on this Service at launch. TTYD, Luigi’s Mansion and Wind Waker maybe in an Update. The others just seem to make this thing look way more generous than Nintendo will ever pull out lol

@NintendoAmerica Any idea why I keep getting error 2123-0209 since April? I have tried just about everything to troubleshoot this on my end.

@THUMPnsfw @Nintendo Surviving a broken PC and not being defeated is already better than i usually manage when it happen to me. Hope your work is safe but this content is also good stuff.

@NintendoAmerica advertises a free repair service for defective joy-cons...and then uses @UPS which doesn't have a pick-up location anywhere near my city and charges a pick-up fee. *slow claps*

So kyrie had a limited edition Pokémon Nintendo switch just found out they only made 200 of those and if they can't fix it there going to send him another on for free. Trying to figure out what type of warranty he had on that thing 😭

Nintendo did such a bad job of balancing sephiroth man, “this character is so insanely broken with wing and has one of the dumbest counters in the game but hey he’s like REALLY light so it’s fine”

@mr_rat_mod @Ryleain1 @Ploogak1 As I said he came up in conversation and he’s got a major anger problem . I don’t think about that fat head /fat ***. Keep the same energy when he throws something cause he doesn’t get to level 6 in a Nintendo game

Like it's not that the criticism of Nintendo isn't warranted. They're just like any other corporate entity. My issue is the idea that they are somehow worse than they used to be. Naw man they have been in the same state for years. It's just Reggie and iwata aren't here now.

@bluerosetori @ssbm_zamu I understand that this is an issue, but if an event is trying to go for a nintendo sponsorship then they should be upfront about it say no ucf, frozen stadium, etc. from the get go so people can still know what they're signing up for.

I have been a huge Nintendo fan my entire life. @NintendoAmerica's inability to assist me with this issue in any substantive way for over five months is a masterclass example of alienating a lifelong customer. Nintendo had always been my main platform of choice until now.

@parentinfluenc1 Honestly, I've had more issues and stress with grown-*** adults acting worse than children on a lot of flights. Give me the flights with crying three-year-olds and Timmy playing Nintendo Switch any day over Karens and drunk men starting fights.

@st3phi3_ It’s people’s WIFI. Nintendo isn’t very good about managing multiplayer environments. It seems like if a person’s WIFI hiccups you’d think it would just terminate their gameplay instead of everyone’s. I’ve had a full island of players for hours with no issues.

@NintendoAmerica you can't even download it if you bought it. there's a bug in the marketplace that mojang refuses to fix.

@Carl_Sagan42 Rip, it was great while it lasted, glad you downloaded some of them! Nintendo shouldn’t ever delete levels it’s so dumb, like sure if it was glitches they can patch it but still keep the level up with that glitch.

@tacticalfiend It's a funny thing to blame Fox's up smash being so broken in Smash 64 and Melee for but ultimately false. It MAY have been an issue of Nintendo Power or the comics that made it up but I've not once seen a quote actually come up.
