I don’t know why but I hit error 404 multiple times on a Nintendo switch and everything’s been fake since

@RiddleguyMan Well 3rd parties had no problem putting a TON of multi-disc games on the PS1, PS2, 360, Saturn and Dreamcast. So...multi-disc games are fine on Sony, Microsoft and even Sega platforms but a no-no on a Nintendo one. Most 3rd party games from the 6th gen could fit on a song GC disc

@InfernoOmni I mean, seriously. Nintendo is currently stating that JoyCon Drift isn't a problem and limiting the release of a AAA game. Do those actions speak of a company that gives a **** about their image?

@Fartleby it doesnt matter at all how shitty the community is. NRS is one of the most toxic communities both amongst themselves and towards the devs, but they still run streams without issue. nintendo squashed a ****** splatoon stream because half the teams acted in solidarity w melee

Tails 🇳🇬🇺🇲 #FreeMelee #FreeSplatoon (@realTailss) reported
@Valrya_Ati @CharactersPain Multiple teams who managed to make the top cut had the name FreeMelee or some type of alternative. Nintendo only cited some other reason on why they canceled the Top 4 stream but its extremely likely that the names were the problem

i wish my switch wasn't ******* broken AND I WISH IT WASN'T A WEEKEND AND I COULD SHIP IT TO NINTENDO RIGHT NOW BUT I HAVE TO WAIT TILL TOMORROW

@TGuitardud @CJP_Libra @JimJangusFtTMT And still ongoing issue! Basically developer support doesn't mean just money and their brand on your stream. It's the resources they can provide to improve every single bit about a tournament or what have you. Why wouldn't Nintendo want to foster that? LIKE EVERY OTHER COMPANY

Nintendo Switch connectivity issues 😞

Crewmate Des (@Currupt404) reported
Very angry how Nintendo cancelled their Splatoon tournament just because of the Melee movement that I won't hashtag here. it just seems like Nintendo competitive matches are slowly coming to an end, and that's no good. I'm a brawl fan, however, this is still a problem for me.

How has @NintendoAmerica not fixed the joycon issue? This is my second pair of joycons and they’re drifting so badly it’s messing up my gameplay. What the hell
-
ami (@TURBOHOMOSEXUAL) reported
@IntroSpecktive @Cheesy_Storm hell, its likely some of the many nintendo devs and employees dont share the same stingy and greedy sentiments as their executives and they might actually get in trouble for using third party software in their work because of aforementioned lack of communication

Victor McKnight 🎵 (@VAMcKnight) reported
@RoB_KTA It's my one big problem with the Switch right now. Fundamentally I think it's a pretty solid console. I just don't know how they screwed up the joy-cons so badly. Made even worse by the fact that Nintendo is dismissing it.

I didn’t talk about #FreeSplatoon and #FreeMeleeNintendo for the longest time, but here’s what I want @NintendoAmerica to do to fix their dumpster fire of a PR, please, for the love of god and all that is holy, Sell your IP’s and Studios to @microsoft’s @Xbox division

saddest thing about nintendo is easily the potential they have just SITTING there. but they refuse to do anything with it, and instead create even more issues for themselves and ignore everything the fans do
