    Really, what's the point of the OLED Switch? It's literally just the Nintendo Switch with a bigger screen. No fix of the drift, no 4K, it's literally the same console.

  • pikachurch brendan ⚡ (@pikachurch) reported

    the new nintendo switch being revealed as just an OLED version is the most boring reveal ever tbh 😓 like yeah improved graphics, audio, and storage is great, but give us at least SOME processing power improvements and fix joycon drift 😞

  • Eyymaannn Eman (@Eyymaannn) reported

    @facefa69 @nintendobenzo @NintendoAmerica 5 years after it was released and a trip to Korok Forest still got the game lagging. And that's for a major Nintendo IP. You think the 3rd party game would be better?

  • SaggeseMike87 Michael Saggese (@SaggeseMike87) reported

    @Trashqueen_01 The thing with Nintendo is for years they have and probably never will invest into dedicated servers. Which is why their online service is cheaper compared to Play Station Plus or Xbox Live since they have dedicated servers for their online games.

  • liuzeyu307 灰龙 (@liuzeyu307) reported

    @Number1AsukaFan @NintendoAmerica You just need to spend $50 more for a bigger OLED screen plus 32g more memory. There is no extra money else where. People can keep their original switch if they don’t like it. I don’t see any problem here.

  • Nova2127u Nova2127u (@Nova2127u) reported

    @Keito0omine @Nintendeal Nintendo did say they are working to make Switch Online better, so maybe they’ll fix that issue when the new Dock releases.

  • Jtwatson Jeremy Watson (@Jtwatson) reported

    @Stealth40k Nope. Still no acknowledgement from Nintendo about joycon drift being a real problem, and no mention of how they've stopped it (meaning they haven't). I'm not buying any more Nintendo hardware until they fix it.

  • ChuggerWindex Windex_Chugger (@ChuggerWindex) reported

    @PixelGaming1234 @Des_bugg Too bad smash is still going to lag because nintendo pays 5 dollars a year for a server with 16 million people

  • ebinlaw FlawlessWorld (@ebinlaw) reported

    @catpeetacos @catboy9653 @SYACVG "buying a lan adapter for the switch cost 30 bucks " thats just Nintendo creating a problem and fixing it "just for $50". imagine if PS5 had no lan port and Sony released a PS5+ that cost $50 more for a lan port? That shouldve come with the base price already

  • SleepyShivers Sierra Sleepy (@SleepyShivers) reported

    @mangetsu00 @corobonii @nintendolife The joy-con are fun designs, but Nintendo has no excuse for how widespread the drift issue is. A hardware refresh like this new model should have updated controllers at minimum.

  • RealBesbk Besim Lika (@RealBesbk) reported

    @Yuriofwind If 2025 Nintendo don't release a console 3-4 times more powerful then a PS4 pro we going to have problems. It's obvious now we won't see Metroid Prime 4 or Bayonetta 3 till the next system comes out. Probably along with Breath of Wild remastered 1&2 and promises of a new Zelda.

  • Free_from_a_God 💩Dan💩 (@Free_from_a_God) reported

    @vicious696 You are part of the problem and so the Nintendo bullshit will continue.

  • 1990Alessio Alessio (@1990Alessio) reported

    @supgamer76 @dehrenikx @NintendoAmerica then blame developers. why some games runs at 60fps and some lag with 3 item in the screen (yeah Animal Crossing, I'm talking to you).

  • stitchlips2000 Stitchlips (@stitchlips2000) reported

    @SparksEchidna Nintendo is too damn stubborn to fix it

  • GirlCreator_ catgirl rat king @ team cyberpunk! 🔥 (@GirlCreator_) reported

    hardcore pokemon fans are the worst only because they never will be happy. i personally didn't have many issues with the original bdsp trailer, but everyone shat on it like nintendo is actively forcing them to buy what is clearly still a game in development.
