    @helloiambobross @YOG3NSHA @momiji_doa I love how you'll jumped to a content problem rather than a quality one. Nintendo just allowed a Solitaire game will full ****** to be released on a cart in the EU. I dunno if they are cracking down on ***** content or just wanting to prune some of the low effort titles out.

    @OfficialJH11 @NintendoAmerica Bad English detected. And yeah some of us would buy it, we can afford it, & don't fix what isn't broken anyway. It's a shooter, the game will be the same base over and over again, just more & more refined. Like every other direct sequel.

    @NintendoAmerica I sit and wait for a match in Splatoon 3 for 600 seconds! Looks like you didn’t fix one of the most frustrating things… game getting stuck!

    If CoD goes exclusive on a platform that I don't own THERE IS A PROBLEM. I don't give a damn **** what Sony is doing or MS. If it was Nintendo doing this, buying ABK and making their games exclusive on Switch, I was having a problem with that. What Sony does with Spider man

    @maintemnance @PlayTemtem is there still issues with twitch drops? I claimed the banner 3 days ago and the backpack 2 days ago. I’m playing on Switch and have linked my Nintendo account on your website and in game. Please advise.

    @NintendoAmerica Problem: people all over the globe are having Communication Errors, and from what I've seen, it's not because of their interenet. Something's up with the servers.

    @NintendoUK its also a joke you can’t refund on Estore. Very disappointing. @DisneyDLV Do you plan on further optimising switch for lag and stutter? If not mind paypaling me a cheeky £25 so I can pick it up on steam to not experience these issues? Cheers x

    Celeste Derenda Carr (@DreamLife19psn) reported

    @HylianBean97 Pretty sure you can send it back to Nintendo and they will fix the drift PlayStation does it but that has to be within the Nintendo does warranty time. You should look into that

  • Ranger15Dogey
    AsherTrashMann (@Ranger15Dogey) reported

    The glitch occurs because it's trying to load the splatfest region menu, but fails. So it just sits like that forever. However, the menu will not pop up if there is no internet connection, so no internet means no menu. Nintendo, for the love of cod, please fix this.

    @mastercontrol75 @NintendoAmerica Yep, we can't complete even one battle without the communication error stopping the game.
