@NintendoAmerica, @NintendoBrasil This week I bought the voucher pack and started to play Pokémon Violet and Splatoon 3. The first one is clearly an unfinished game and the second one I can’t play 10 minutes without connection issues. Unfortunately requesting my refund.

@NintendoAmerica where is my money? Waiting on my refund. Your game is a piece of trash that appeals only to a few hardcore players and has numerous problems you won’t admit with the online service. Where ******** is all of our refunds for this game?

@awitchdidit It's debatable what "original Nintendo" could mean, but no one thinks that phrase refers to an SNES, which is the console LTTP was released on. You can fix the sentence by just claiming to have played the first Zelda game on the "original Nintendo."

@Drenttzaggett20 @BulbaWhat98 My problem with the criticism of this company has a cult like fandom is basically they hinge on that it's the only company that has it. Of course Nintendo fans are overzealous every single form of entertainment has zealous fandoms.

@JokerNarukami Who knows. It depends on how much they're willing to work with Ms maybe. They've had no trouble sharing franchises with Nintendo(ori was a big success for them). And minecraft has remained multiplatform years after they bought it. I agree with you that that practice sucks.

I just want the stupid salmon run boat map badge but n o Nintendo decides to have ****** com errors that dock you points that they’ll never fix, the worst rng, and on top of that AWFUL MATCHMAKING It’s like they actively want the game mode to be avoided

@Huxley_D Just had to try—the Nintendo Power line is still answered by Nintendo as well, but only to give an automated message saying you’ve reached them on a line that is no longer active, and giving the telephone number and hours for customer service.

Builder’s Remedy. It’s like Nintendo made Game Genie for IRL RE developers. But How many #buildersremedy projects are actually rubber stamped, through plan check, and ready to issue? @Yimby_Law @cayimby

@vicam33 @Genki_JPN They skip Nintendo and Sony, point? The only people who would have a problem are children (because they don't have money) and fanboys. I have a job and when a game I want comes to a system I don't have I buy the system. Unless it's Xbox I just buy it on PC.

@Tomhennessey69 @ScottAdamsSays Ahhh, but the reality is this “special needs” student will get off with nothing because he’s “special needs” and “doesn’t know better”. And the parapro will be in trouble for taking away his Nintendo Switch.

I see some people do have the issue and some don't, which leads me to no conclusion on whether it's my internet or garbage Nintendo servers. My internet is probably sub par at best, but no game has issues this bad.

@BulbaWhat98 I feel like his whole thing about “The Church of Nintendo” is pretty flawed. Replace Nintendo with any big company and they have similar problems. It feels very over-critical and isn’t self aware.

Apparently there was a state of play today but I haven't actually heard about anything from it. Even the Nintendo one where Twitter was broken got more discussion.

@KeyToAeris The main issue is that Microsoft and Sony do not have nearly as many first party titles as Nintendo so they would need to do them way less frequently.

We haven't been able to update some of our games on the Switch due to wifi issues. Today we were able to update Pokémon Cafe Remix. It now requires that the profile you use have a linked Nintendo account, you know so you can spend money. Now my daughter can't play.
