@woesby The bandage should get ripped right off all at once though. I feel like you have been learning things at the same pace that Nintendo drops new games on the Online service.

@DirtyBilgeRat @RogueSpyke @JimSterling The big problem with your comparison there is that Nintendo themselves aren’t selling at scalped prices, so they’re not making any of the scalped profit.

@bakaridge @remakeyourself I have a problem with it because 5 years later, most Nintendo games are still 60 USD. So on top of that I have to pay an additional 20 USD per year just so I can play online. I only care about NSO because of online play.

@NintendoUK Was expecting something a bit more special or even an amiibo reveal/pack in edition. Will continue to buy my games from GAME as you get a much better reward/points service than Nintendo 🙃🙃🙃

@vicious696 nah. releasing day 1 on pc devalues the console. just as releasing day 1 on a sub service devalues the game. this is precisely why nintendo & sony dont do it.

nintendo’s biggest problem isnt deemseea’s or whatever, its the fact they release and make cool *** figures for cheap and then they’re gone in 2 weeks

@NintendoAmerica Please fix N64 emulation on switch, I paid $50 for an emulator that runs worse than the wide variety of free emulators on PC.

@NoStrife @PaulTassi @Forbes Thats kinda the problem tho. With nintendo as a whole. I bought monster hunter stories 2 and that game chuuuuuugs and is so framy on switch. Everyone just gives nintendo a pass on how their games look. Yes they are fun. But there should also be a standard and theyre a gen behind

@SolidRoar @EmilyRogersBlog True. Especially the emu. problems. I just hope Nintendo will keep the service from now on and build on it instead of starting a new experiment with the successor. It could eventually turn into something great.

Everyone rolls up to defend nintendo releasing empty field simulator and mad I don't like it, but got nothing to say about actual problems in gaming.

@NintendoAmerica UPDATE MARIO MAKER 2!!!!!!!!!!! Make the "BOO" option actually get rid of the horrible levels in Multiplayer mode, there's so much trash there! Let's work on the connection issues too while we're at it.

You know, its kinda crazy how nintendo did barely anything for zelda's anniversary besides that game and watch thing that no one wants, putting ocarina in a bad emulator on a subscription service and remastering a widely considered bad zelda game (admittedly fixing it a bit tho)

@jessiful_ You know, honestly, this isn't a bad idea. They should add this as a versus mode in the next Mario game. Like literally regular Mario except you're not working together bc f@%k your friends. It'd be super chaotic and super fun! @NintendoAmerica, get on this!!!

So, Nintendo, one of the reasons people bought that snes and nes mini, was the fine tuned responsiveness and playing games on official hardware. So why do you banish all N64 games to a laggy streaming service. Sure, one day you won’t care anymore, but not today.

@NintendoAmerica Maybe I'll get these when Nintendo starts putting good games on their online service. Be honest, it sucks and they don't care. The e-shop on the WiiU runs laps around this crap. So, no no no no and no. Also, no.

@verynetwork I have a problem with my Nintendo Switch, but I cannot find any way to contact customer service other than the telephone. Is there any other way to report an issue?

@xMBGx Honestly I hope so. And if so, I hope it’s similar to Xbox’s implementation. I want to be able to play my physical games or buy them digitally off the store. I don’t want and refuse a service like what Nintendo offers

@JustmeRclol @NintendoAmerica Kirby Superstar is already on there so I have my favorite game. Though sad that I might lose it in the future if there’s no longer an online service. We’re still a long way away from that but I wish Nintendo would let me keep it.

@GameStop hey GameStop. Pretty dissatisfied with your guys service. In October, I bought a pre-owner copy of Hidden Objects for the Nintendo switch. The game freezes and can’t even read. I did not purchase a warranty apparently either… why do I need to pay more?
