@dungeonsgame would be so much better if it didn’t crash so often. Also, maybe they shouldn’t market it as 4 players on Nintendo switch since it is significantly more unstable with 3-4 players. @NintendoAmerica

@photoedfade @DelgadoEbin @nintendofac The controller isn't that bad, And Crash is fun. This is coming from a die hard Nintendo fan. The community makes it embarrassing to love Nintendo, But I still do.

@bigboysharun You are spot on. And honestly, there is nothing wrong with only liking one or two Nintendo franchises The issue is that people aren’t honest with themselves and want to pretend they are “fans” just so they can feel like their expectations are reasonable lol.

@TH3M4NR0CK5 @alehalexxx_nsfw Unfortunately, I think it would be wise to avoid all things Nintendo. Lotta artists having problems from doing Nintendo related art

I get it that the demand is high for limited stock + chips shortage issue. Just like last year with Nintendo Switch, double the price but not even a year the price is back to normal now.

@danidonovan Switched phones and lost the 2 factor authentication my Nintendo account was connected to. Spent 30 minutes melting down and trying to circumvent it on the Switch until I cooled down. Customer Service fixed in less than 2 minutes. It's cool. I'm cool we're cool.

@CrashBandicoot looking forward to Crash 4 on Nintendo Switch! But can not find a Physical copy on pre-order on my usual sites, is the UK getting digital only or is something amiss?

@AmazonHelp Almost 8 hours since I ordered $55 of @NintendoAmerica e-gift cards on your site. Stuck in “verification pending”. I have bought items totaling much more than this on your site before. Why is this a thing and why do your reps lie about the reason? Fix this now.

@PauluigiSSB @Speend10 @elliotduby Yeah but major difference is they are owned by Nintendo. With crash their hands would be tied on what they could develop without getting express permission. Just look at sonic for an example. They’ve had over 12 years to fix his moveset from just spindashbut never did.

@Malindachan @NintendoAmerica Yeah, Nintendo does free joycon repairs regardless of when you got them due to so many people having drift issues
-

(@sarahboo1202) reported
@Fiopup_Games There’s a way to contact Nintendo to get new joycons. I think it’s absolutely ridiculous they haven’t fixed this issue. In my opinion, I recommend buying a wireless controller that will work cause that’s what I use and it cheaper than new joycons, plus I haven’t had any issues

@AustinJohnPlays You still gotta login to the eshop website on ur phone browser. Playstation is able to do it properly via a native app or on desktop through the playstation store website. Still long way for nintendo to go, but these are steps in the right direction.

@WormJazz unless I’ve missed an announcement somewhere, the level “Twisted Logic” (F-15) on the Nintendo Switch cannot be completed with all stars. I love the game, excellent work. I’ll play around the problem. I just felt you should know!

@FarmFruits @UFCxPlayStation And again to make it clear.. I am not saying that everyone was having problems with their controller.. Like not everyone is having problems with their ps5 and DualSense.. And both companies specially Nintendo should work on it

We think that Olive Town is the "afterlife" and we are interfering with it through our Nintendo Switch, which is why we encounter so many problems. I'm sure that's why we don't have a repertoire of conversations with the inhabitants. I'll wait for the mid-March update

the switch pro controller is such a diva. one day it's like "I'm gonna give you the smoothest gaming experience of your life" and the other day it's "I'm gonna crash your game and act up" and the next day "I'm not even gonna respond". nintendo what's up with this
