@ReelRhoades @DSACostanza That is still dumb Japanese streamers have right to co-stream. If its ahead then that's nintendo's problem to fix. Its not like I can't just go and watch japanese presentation if I want to be ahead anyway co-streaming changes nothing.

@ForceStrategy I think the issue is less the volume of games, but quality/scope. Xbox/Bethesda was A+, Devolver was also great, Nintendo was... meh. Other big publishers were mostly lacking anything exciting, and the rest of the games are indies of wildly varying quality.

The problem with the ambiguity of BotW 2's trailer is it leaves the door open for lore sickos (like myself) to make a bunch of dumb speculations off of like 40 seconds of footage. Honestly, I feel like the community cares way more about the Zelda timeline than Nintendo does.

@NintendoAmerica are you going to have a fix for the server issue 2123-0217 anytime soon?!

@GaoRush @ZFighterAmuro I tried it. The streaming service Capcom partnered with is located only in Taiwan. It is unplayable basically everywhere that isn’t Taiwan. The Switch itself isn’t actually sold or distributed by Nintendo in Taiwan.

@NintendoAmerica it sure would be nice if we could download any software right now. Error code 2132-1502. Fix it please?

Its like they assume Nintendo and the Smash team promised them Crash and other characters when it was never really the case. They were going off of rumors and patterns to justify the character's inclusion. Leak and rumor talk tends to gauge into popular requests to gain traction.

@ForceStrategy I think the problem most of us has with this E3 was. 1. Most of the AAA companies had nothing more than a title or cinematic trailer. 2. A lot of the releases as slated as early as later this summer to 2023. The indie developers and nintendo were the only salvation of E3.

Awesome customer service from @NintendoUK! My son had a problem with the joystick on his #Switch, it was pulling to the left. Went online, found the form, sent it back. A few days later a news joystick was delivered. No charge. All the time, we got regular email updates.

@TrendsDollar @NabbitFan730 @NintendoAmerica Why everyone is expecting Crash? His only chance being in game is Mii costume and nothing else. Why everyone even wants him anyway? He would be such a boring character imo. Spyro would be way better and more unique Activision rep.

@shmorton2 @NintendoAmerica Yeah you probably did not watch anything but Nintendo you have potatoes for eyeballs you really think square in Microsoft and capcom and gearbox was good? You have problems. Nintendo wasn’t bad if you’re disappointed that’s you you have horrible taste

@BlaqMario @NintendoAmerica Yeah my only issue with them doing these drawn out releases is because of the issue with the scalper just instantly buying up the lots. I would be more ok with it if they just did a limited time thing and released enough for everyone during.

@Banxy @MojangSupport I’m late to the party here but this is a Nintendo thing. Last Switch update broke everything (literally). You can’t download anything from eShop (bought or updates). There is no easy fix either (basically a lot of trial and error on clearing cache, restarting etc. etc.). F

@ASaturdayMood Thank you for telling me, but it's not the issue. I just realized I still have the corrupted 12.0.3 stability update that's giving everyone an issue right now, so far nintendo has not given a response on the fix yet but hopefully soon. I really want to buy some games

I'm calling it now - Xbox Game Pass WILL be on the Nintendo Switch. Nintendo sells more consoles, appeals to older demo, and Xbox gets Nintendo's huge user base. They'll probably limit a game or two, but majority of library will be there. Sony PS5 has some problems growing...

@CruelScorp Yup,not a single word from Nintendo. Instead fortnite had to give out some information about the error. Like...WOW you need another person to help your users with errors.

@FluffyKing1994 @FanbyteMedia @mattLarnold This is literally an issue Nintendo made up and "solved", and Nintendo fanboys are praising them for it.

@NintendoAmerica The main issue with the melee counter in Samus Returns was that it killed momentum. Glad it's fixed here!

@QuillShot89 @NintendoAmerica It was because playing it on a 3DS was the real "Dread", there shouldn't be problems on a Switch

@ExpandDong15 People aren’t getting this. NO ONE can predict which specific spot a character will be in Crash is a huge deal and THE most wanted character and I think Nintendo is aware. All I can predict is he will be in this pass
