@DynamoSuperX Nintendo please buy crash and Spyro

@RougeroPizzazz @DorionMaxime By that logic, then, does the fact they now aren't running the service on Switch suggest it was no longer proving successful and had run its course, and Nintendo had to try something different? If it was making money, they wouldn't have ditched it.

@SamWils19061969 @REXBLASTER2 @NintendoAmerica The only fix is not a fix at all, you only removed the Pokemon games from the list.

so you're telling me that nintendo didn't fix any past glitches that skyward sword originally had? not even the ones that could even softlock people during a playthrough? i'm not surprised

@jepticpit20 At this rate, Nintendo should acquire Crash Bandicoot and Spyro.

@SenpaiPx Yes #Nintendo. It would be nice to fix the joycon drift issue so that handheld players can continue to enjoy to play on the switch

@RL_Support I have tried mobile and web and it doesn't work. I click the switch logo to login, enter my Nintendo information and it brings me back to the submit a ticket screen each time. Never does it show me as logged in nor does the submit a ticket appear. Is there an email I could use

@ModernVintageG If in a year someone is able to play Metroid Prime on Valve hardware before Switch hardware, then Nintendo have failed from a service standpoint. Gabe is right when he says piracy is a service problem.

@SpawnWaveMedia "Nintendo Switch Online Continues To Surprise" Surprise? You have been paying attention to the pattern of their online service releases for about the last year or so, right?

@MegaAlexEXE I'm questioning why Nintendo is celebrating Crash's 25th anniversary on a day like this.

@riotsmash @PlayerEssence The fact that Activision makes games is beside the point. Why not show your disgust without ramming it down people’s throats on a completely different subject, because they said some things you didn’t like about Nintendo. They are completely different issues.

whatever, forever
(@_IoveIysad) reported
@Rhabby_V you get little credits for a single match but since they literally take 10 minutes i don't see an issue with that at all. my biggest complaint is lack of trainer customization, but i didn't really expect too much from nintendo lol

(@RougeroPizzazz) reported
@scully1888 @DorionMaxime to VC. All we can make about VC now is assumptions, because Nintendo hardly provided figures for it and then mysteriously started phasing it out after three systems. So by what you're saying you also can't prove the service was a failure, and I can't entirely prove its success.

i feel like nintendo has the worst pnline service because you have to pay for mostly peer to peer connection and you don't even get earthbound6

@JonComms @CEOOfSekiguchi I feel ******* gross now, I bought the crash trilogy, crash 4 and the spyro remakes. Man Nintendo or Sony PLEASE take it from them. I DON'T CARE IF IT BECOMES A CONSOLE EXCLUSIVE AGAIN. Just get it away from these sickos

@Benimated Give the IP’s to say Nintendo or Sega and see how they’ll treat them I have a hunch that a good chunk of the people who worked on the Crash & Spyro remasters and Crash 4 would migrate to working at the company that bought the IP’s so that the fire woudn’t die out

I *really* hate the trend of studio/IP acquisitions that happen on an almost monthly basis these days but if Sony or Nintendo bought the rights to Crash and Spyro, that would be a good day.

@TheDemoScout Tbh, I just don't see a problem with them and their games joining to the roster. Yeah they aren't as massive as the 3rd parties, but I still feel there is merit to them being included. And only 3, possibly 4, of the 11 cps are Nintendo, just 1 or 2 more than Microsoft and SE

(@bayden_wolfe) reported
@Vet_093 It’s fine to be more excited for 3rd party characters, I just take issue when people complain when a new fighter is a Nintendo rep and not third party because honestly we’re lucky to have any 3rd party reps

@ErkSkirk @PS5Trophies_ The support here is unacceptable, but I have 2 PS5’s and have had 0 issues with either of them. When the joycon drift was happening, there were similar stories about Nintendo’s care. The important thing to remember is that corporations don’t care about people.

I need help with my Nintendo switch pro controller. It's a Power A wireless model, and it does not work unless it's charging. Has anyone else had this problem? And how do you fix it? I've already tried pressing every button on the controller, including holding the sync button.

@riisha Sakit yan ng Switch from what I've heard. Mostly the Joycon tech being faulty and just stops working even under 1 year of usage. Nintendo still hasn't addressed the issues for it.

@Reecee_yt Nintendo can do us a big favor and buy crash and Spyro from activion

@RDropped I’m more curious if it will actually launch at all hahaha. With the chip shortages still being an issue and covid. I just think this is going to be like the Nintendo PlayStation and the Sega neptune. They exist, people have touched them, but they get canned.

Gonna be honest, Nintendo are currently crap at responding to their customer service forms. I've submitted the same problem 3 times over the course of a month and had no response. It's not like they have a phone number I can ring either so all I can do is keep poking :/

@UltimaShadowX What really sucks is you can’t tell who’s part of the problem is it just the Activison blizzard offices, the developers, or everyone, not only that but why is only Activision being blasted when Nintendo also does this bullshit
