    @JimSterling I was willing to buy their games individually, but now I find out they're broken and perform like crap, absolutely awful pricing scheme aside. I wanted Paper Mario 64, but they got me trucked up. There is no greed like Nintendo greed.

  • SyzJacob Jacob 🦃 (@SyzJacob) reported

    @montatiyt Sounds like a nintendo fanboy problem to me. What ******** is pokeball plus?

  • ryjelsum laboraparty animal (@ryjelsum) reported

    i've heard that some knockoff wiimotes act a little bit unusually compared to the genuine nintendo nunchuks (slightly different initialization process i think, i'm not sure why it works fine with the wiimote but causes problems in this context) but are still workable

  • RoseSilicon Rose (4K OLED Model w/DLSS) (@RoseSilicon) reported

    Again, gen 3 doesn’t count. it’s impossible to mod the game to transfer from earlier gens due to nintendo’s HW design. cloud service is the middleman that would have solved this back then, and we have it now. so don’t bring up gen 3 to justify what pokemon is doing now.

    @nintendolife Personally… I actually enjoyed the trilogy (I only played GTA III on Nintendo Switch) despite the optimization issues on Switch (FPS decreasing on certain parts), hopefully, Grove Street Games will fix the FPS issue on Switch 😔 because that's the only thing I hated it tbh.

    Shout out to MaxPro Electronic Contact Cleaner. If Nintendo won't fix Joycon Drift - they will if only temporarily. Still - better than Nintendo.

  • NayrmanBSC Ryan Malis (@NayrmanBSC) reported

    @Stealth40k Well Nintendo finally has the right audience for it. One of the biggest problems with the Wii was that Nintendo spurned their core base too much and went completely into newbies/casuals which made any games like Other M (Even if it had been good) have little chance.

  • MotherSerpent_ Marco Vito Oddo (@MotherSerpent_) reported

    I finally have the time to play #SuperMarioSunshine on Switch and I understand the general disappointment. Sunshine is, but it's rushed development resulted in many small flaws. Nintendo had the opportunity to fix them, but instead just put some makeup over it for the collection.

    @DaniielleAshley You might want to look into sending it to nintendo to be repaired. I assume your data should be backed up to your nintendo cloud account. The only game you may have problems with is pokemon as it saves to the console memory itself. That being said nintendo might be able to help

  • ParadiseTotsuka Hoeku (@ParadiseTotsuka) reported

    Nintendo is the worst ******* service on earth

  • fontbane Fontbane (@fontbane) reported

    @profile013no2 @ItsSteveMiner69 @NintendoAmerica Not all of them, there’s a handful still missing. Eevee, Yanma, Tangela, Porygon, Nosepass and Rotom off the top of my head. Though since the Platinum mons aren’t “in” the regional dex it means trainers and encounters still have the problems of that limited pool

  • profile013no2 profile (@profile013no2) reported

    @fontbane @ItsSteveMiner69 @NintendoAmerica I feel like the issues with the Kanto dex were retrospective, lol. Gen 1 days as a 7yo the idea of 150 pokemon was massive and I was mindblown when I heard Johto would do another 100. But of course we fans had to ruin the magic for us by over-analyzing every corner of the games.

    Left my house for an hour walk. Came back to my house broken into and my Nintendo switch stolen. I live alone and am shaken up. Waiting for the police to come. I need a hug.

    @awoo1989 this is so sad. nintendo pls fix

  • vrtrendmagazine VRTrendMagazine 📖 (@vrtrendmagazine) reported

    @nimSony We have already shipped a years worth of issues. Because we’re not on a stand trying to get peoples attention we don’t have to clutter it as much. But the inside is an ode to old Nintendo power and tips and tricks.
