Nintendo Switch Online Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Head-ZonkStudios (@HeadZonkStudios) reported@Grummz I'm more concerned with Nintendo's decaying business practices. The empty cartridges, the increasing service fees, and mistreatment of talent is what's turning me off.
-
BloodyRipley 🎧⭕️ (@red047x) reported@L337L4K3 I just think Xbox clearly doesn’t care about exclusivity and is going to put their games everywhere. Gears going to ps made that even more clear to me. Problem is I don’t see Nintendo or ps doing that to Xbox lol
-
Melee K (@meleekarisma) reported@PunchoLuncho And even then it fails. There’s a large part of the library that didn’t get QOL updates. We tested a few and they all perform worse. Nintendo had to intentionally fix for them to run better than the previous system. It’s really bad.

ConnorOhOne (@ConnorOhOne) reported@Alfredo_Toons @makio_jroses I understand the difference, GameFreak codes while Nintendo publishes, not even accounting for Creatures Inc’s third of the ownership. The problem is that on average there’s a new set of pokemon mainline games every 3 years, not accounting everything else like sidegames & (1/2)

JustSomeRandomGamer (@jsrg_1) reported@seafairyservant @CaseyPhotoz @soniccobra951 WAIT EVERYONE I HAVE FOUND A FIX If u own switch 2 ver of deltarune u get the switch 1 version free!!!! Enter the download code that target provided to Nintendo website to get switch 2 version anyway. Then go to Nintendo’s page for deltarune (switch 1) it should say free download

Cloudy (@CloudyBRM) reported@SonOfATech Nintendo I could forgive cause it’s game code on media(cartridge). Sony is building up a game library for their Plus “Games as a service” subscription. Steam is just putting games on the digital shelf at MSRP, but I expect some service to come out of them too.

May★girl (@mayc_zelda) reported@FortniteStatus I can’t matchmake on any map including Battle Royale and Brick Life on Nintendo Switch I keep getting matchmaking error #2 @FortniteStatus I’ve already redownloaded the game and cleared cache still having issues.
-
Pixel (@pixelluma) reported@NintendoAmerica Oh boy, I see trouble brewing!
-
plasticbagger (@plasticbagger) reportedim honestly shocked no one woke has brought up how the inventor of Donkey Kong said in a Nintendo Power issue in like 2003 that he based the character and world of Donkey Kong on minstrel shows….like wtf. is Nintendo that powerful they can just bury ****** up **** like that?
-
Grummz (@Grummz) reported$80 will work on Nintendo fans and 1st party Nintendo games, but the rest of the industry is going to find out. Fast track to AAA game market crash, esp if they keep virtue signaling in games, offering stale content, and lots of bugs.
-
KANNA-CHAN (@Kannakamuisama) reported@FortniteStatus i play on xbox series s and he play's on nintendo switch, he said he had the same problem, when we press the app icon the game takes 3 times longuer to connect then before
-
Trey_Dizzle (@Trey_Dizzle45) reported@KirPinkFury I've had 0 problems plus Nintendo will fix or replace for free
-
jamal drake (@jukins5) reported@kazzy_115 Maybe youre young but the last crash introduced 70-80 dollar Nintendo games 70 sega games....you kids don't know how good we have it. If games adjusted like everything else we'd already be at $100 games
-
Tobi Adeyinka (@AdeyinkaRotimi1) reported@Chris_Dring I fully expect them to launch a streaming only service or subscription for TVs and stuff in the future if adoption starts gaining traction. But they will do everything to ensure that 30% is still very lucrative on their own platform and not give it others. Nintendo will be well..

Daniel (@DanielJoonge17) reported@sthetixofficial Updated to the newest Version with no problems. Before updating I tried to launch OFW which failed (I never use it), then launched Semi-Stock and updated online through Nintendo Servers. Got the new HATS-Pack, SYSmmc was already on newest Version, only had to update Emummc Thanks
