    @envinyon Actually it’s a lot worse than you think Nintendo has been recycling their servers since the original DS online service those servers have gone through the wii dsi dsi xl Wii U 3ds 3dsxl etc and worse even if they update to new servers it will still take 8 hours part 2

    People responding to the Nintendo news with incredulity about how old NEX is as if the matchmaking server is the reason why their p2p netcode has so many problems in-game are funny

    @FinalWeaponX4 I'm not that knowledgeable about how this really works, but how much will this benefit the quality of Nintendo's online service exactly...?

    @BabyDan67148992 @NintendoAmerica Yea I have the online service and I would rather play offline

    god i couldn't resist making a joke about the whole nintendo online service being the same thing from the game cube until now, it's just so hilarious that we have to pay for this **** today and they got rid of WFC

    @RichieGonzo21 @ExpandDong15 Nintendo is trying to fix their online and you still find room to *****. Sell your Nintendo console, you clearly don't enjoy it.

    this news about Nintendo having the same online service for close to 20 years actually doesn’t surprise me too much it actually explains why it runs as smooth as chocolate pudding scraped across ham on most games

    Feel so sorry for Stadia devs. In the year that Google shut down Google Play music and introduced charges for their photos service, I've been using Microsoft and Apple products a lot more as they tend to stick with their projects. Why can't Nintendo just run everything though?

    @PhantomArtifice @AdultNep789 Considering that Monster Hunter games on Nintendo platforms never had any issues I think it's odd that Rise is being the first to test it. That tells me the online is so bad that Monster Hunter needs the upgrade.

    @GoogleStadia Out of Playstation, Xbox and Nintendo notice how the one with the least exclusives is doing the worst in sales... Tho the service itself should be the only selling point, you've learning by now gamers are loyal thus aren't easy to win over from a different platform that...

    Also on the nintendo servers thing, i think the issue is more of what they were using to interpret input from clients and not the server architecture like i am fairly certain you can get a rollback solution to work on those old servers with some doing

    @Renco193 @NinEverything Yeah, I didn't want to say that explicitly, since I always get Nintendromes on my replies when commenting on this account. I never supported their decision and fake excuses for the paid service, as well as the garbage it offers, and stopped using Nintendo products after that.

    Wait is Nintendo actually trying to fix online
