  • maxterdragon Mike (@maxterdragon) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Please fix the N64 games

  • MainManVergil Vergil Sparda (@MainManVergil) reported

    @SleepyBakes My biggest issue with Nintendo (and even Microsoft and Sony) is just rather than more original ideas, we get remasters and remakes. I mean yeah, remasters and remakes are cool and all, but it feels like more fluff than actual new content.

  • AltairDuran FermiDatilo (@AltairDuran) reported

    @AndresL_1997 @GamingBoy256 @NintendoAmerica For the Switch online service i guess

  • RickyMa87212351 Ricky May (@RickyMa87212351) reported

    @EAFIFADirect When are you fixing the graphics on xbox series s? As the little fix that took you a month to roll out didn't do anything! It's like playing the Nintendo ds version! Appalling

  • kepisketchis connect: mii 🍉 (@kepisketchis) reported

  • serrisfroon Dan Sanchez(Serris) (@serrisfroon) reported

    can't wait for all the "wow I can't believe nintendo didn't fix this" discourse that's about to drop

  • Carthuun Carthuun (@Carthuun) reported

    @_Gneisha Ben Heck has has some episodes where he works on trying to fix this (probably) one of a kind Nintendo Playstation prototype.

  • lacedwithlies мelanie (@lacedwithlies) reported

    I’d really like to know why I have to sign in every single time I go onto the eShop? It’s annoying @SwitchIntel @NintendoAmerica

  • HSchloffel heather schloffel (@HSchloffel) reported

    @NintendoAmerica How do I fix and refurbish my sons Nintendo Switch so he can still use?

  • lagoseungliines Buzz Lightyear (@lagoseungliines) reported

    nintendo does have smash issues

  • denizjapan24 Deniz (@denizjapan24) reported

    @animalcro69ing Amanda, you have no idea what we have been through this entire time. So do me a favor, stick to your Nintendo games and shut the f*ck up. You couldn’t even grasp the thought behind my tweet. Your tweets show me how shallow you are so for gods sake, piss off. We’ve other problems.

  • autoWALL autoWALL (@autoWALL) reported

    techWALL is a Service Departments cheat code, just like up, up, down, down, left, right, B, A, START was to Nintendo. Not only does techWALL create a better customer experience, but it leaves no stone unturned when it comes to fixed ops.

  • ImMattGomes ً (@ImMattGomes) reported

    @Nachobeano @Excalibur415 @NintendoAmerica (2/2) as for that ailment run i will try it but considering how broken i found dampeners to be i dont think it will be any harder as long as i have a good demon team. im ready for the game to prove me wrong tho

    @waitforgot @PowerA I have two wireless ones and I love them! Have had both for over a year and haven't had any issues. I did have a wired one a few years ago but half the time it didn't even work so I'd suggest going with wireless. Definitely worth the price over a Nintendo pro controller

  • GenFNY Gengaimo (@GenFNY) reported

    Idk what’s going on. I thought it was the adapter not working on my switch but I got a new one and it still doesn’t register any inputs. Looked online with no fix but just hinting at it being a Nintendo software update messing with the adapter. This is is so frustrating

  • eraserheadbaby_ danny 🏳️‍🌈☆ (@eraserheadbaby_) reported

    the worst part of this tweet is that so many people are getting mad that pokemon fans are “ungrateful” for already wanting new remakes when the actual problem is that pokemon fans are acceptinn the all garbage nintendo is making lmfao

  • gentlequeenn 𝐋𝐀𝐃𝐘 𝐌𝐈𝐏𝐇𝐀 ˊ- (@gentlequeenn) reported

    || y'all I have a problem so my sister wanted to purchase a game on Nintendo eshop but when she tried she didn't have enough So when she went to her check account she had like $0.00 ??? and she remembers having like $50.00 on her account

  • MicrosoftTaint Microsoft Taint (@MicrosoftTaint) reported

    @MondayHatre234 You aren't wrong. Nintendo is pretty incompetent when it comes to netcode, and I'm sure Bandai-Namco working on the game only made it way worse. I think Ultimate's near future is going to depend on Yuzu where the input delay and connection problems aren't nearly as prevalent.

  • livingtaxfraud soup (@livingtaxfraud) reported

    @drizzy0712 @NintendoAmerica def get this one if you don't have one yet, the battery is better and ive heard they've fixed the stick drift issue the original switch is notorious for

  • maxterdragon Mike (@maxterdragon) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Please fix the N64 games.

  • Bumbelin Bumbelin (@Bumbelin) reported

    i hacked the code, im not scarred for life by my own voice if the mii channel theme is playing the whole time on the background i swear nintendo soundtracks fix everything

  • RomNace {☀️} Lord of Dawn {☀️} (@RomNace) reported

    @The0utSyder Spoiler from the next The Outsyder’s work: “I can’t play with this controller! it’s broken, it drops inputs! Bullshit! I pressed that! I didn’t press that! F Nintendo, ack ack ack!”

  • NivekARC NivekA (@NivekARC) reported

    @MLBDrops Is not that easy, did you see Trea Turner Forced Errors? Again post Nintendo MARINERS DOESN'T spend that much either,

  • JamesOl40452511 James Olive (@JamesOl40452511) reported

    Television Adverts I seem to have a problem with my television. I've just seen a Nintendo advert showing a totally white family. No mixed race relationship. Should I call a television engineer?

  • mestrepedrok Mestre PedroK (@mestrepedrok) reported

    hello @PowerA I've been having some serious controller drifting problems with your nintendo switch controllers what should I do? is there a fix? or did I threw money away?

  • ArcticSass M e e p (@ArcticSass) reported

    @JonhyFortnite Uhh speak for yourself, Nintendo more than welcome to remake these games for the Switch. What a stupid take. If you'd have a problem with the remakes, then go back & play the OG's/emulate them. All the people bitching about BDSP can go do the same & stfu, damned Poke elitists.

    @Xbox Xbox Customer Service is better than PlayStation and Nintendo.
