  • mrdryoshi Oshi (@mrdryoshi) reported

    Diggly-leg is bullshit stopping voting the controls randomly, Nintendo fix your decade old game

  • Mel_Arae Melanie 👻 (@Mel_Arae) reported

    @kierstynrose How old is it? And how did it break? Nintendo has a service where they will fix your switch

  • ThatsSoDebonair Debhausen 🌈🍷 (@ThatsSoDebonair) reported

    @jbroody @LordMoyer @NintendoAmerica I'm not really into video games, but I'll try it. The only video games I've ever been good at are Mario Bros, Tetris, Pacman, Crash Bandicoot, and Mario Kart pretty much lmao

  • KaromiCore Karomi⁴ (@KaromiCore) reported

    @gungdaengz It's just way to similar to Kuromi. Look at Nintendo, those guys will sue anyone if its Mario related. That was a genuine concern from people and no one wanted to run into a problem like that in future. Besides it's her exclusive nickname, leave it as a nickname. We must move on.

    So I’m still waiting for my @Xbox series x I ordered it through Xbox all access I know it takes time but I can’t wait to try tmnt on there Xbox game pass ultimate service I might consider continuing after 2 years I currently pay for @NintendoAmerica online

  • LWG_Live LWG_Live🐺 (@LWG_Live) reported

    @NintendoAmerica And yet I'm not getting DK64 for the NSO service lol

  • XboXSL4Y3R XboX SL4Y3R (@XboXSL4Y3R) reported

    @vicious696 @netflix Why should Netflix follow what others do? This is my issue with you, with gaming you do the same as you want everyone to follow what Xbox does but PlayStation and Nintendo are far more successful than Xbox with the business model they have in place.

  • blacknwhtmaroi black and white mario (@blacknwhtmaroi) reported

    @ZoteMilk @breakingmorb @NintendoAmerica Anyways, this has nothing to do with the cuphead dlc, and everything to do with Nintendo's **** up and their subsequent failure to fix their ******* site, so please get the stick out of your ***. Nobody is bad mouthing your game, so there's no need to cry.

  • kicktheinfinity m (@kicktheinfinity) reported

    the nintendo switch docking issue is one of my biggest pet peeves i hate this console sometimes 🙃

  • JustJustas5 JustJustas69 (@JustJustas5) reported

    @MythicKar @KatiesQuine @FallGuysGame This happened to me when I tried logging in to Fortnite for the past few weeks (I play on nintendo). Today I finally solved it. I loged into Fortnite on my laptop, first time it gave me an error, but the second time it worked. So I restarded my nintendo and logged into Fortnite.

    @dragularboi Who’s… David- what? Bro people hated on Age of calamity saying “Smash is a better fighting game” when Hyrule Warriors series isn’t a fighting game they’re warrior games lmao Nintendo fans make up unrealistic issues and dog on the games for it, I hate it

  • NabikiTendoN64 Smooth Bean🇸🇪Sparrow (@NabikiTendoN64) reported

    @DistantFoxx @chuggaaconroy True but no one bash sony and micosoft when they have same issue only Nintendo get attacked for it

  • PownicMania5000 PownicMania (@PownicMania5000) reported

    @Nedduardo Same lmao. This isn't a post to like encourage talking about this stuff 24/7 but it's funny how people keep saying "Nintendo will make us forget about this" when technically they're part of the problem

  • Gael_Vulture 🪶ɢᴀᴇʟ ᴠᴜʟᴛᴜʀᴇ🪶 (@Gael_Vulture) reported

    @KuzmaZolotov Unfortunately no. The last console they ported it was the WiiU. We've been asking them to port it to the Switch but no luck. If they add the Gamecube to the Nintendo Switch Online service, they'd probably add Wind Waker. But until then, you need a Gamecube, Wii or WiiU

  • ItsAdamBurman AdamB (@ItsAdamBurman) reported

    @ManyATrueNerd The issue is, this is basically what kickstarter is. Only more blatantly a scam. In terms of the logo, it's close enough that Nintendo might have a case, but other companies have also used a similar logo, so it's hard to tell in terms of legality.

  • scrunklyluna luna (@scrunklyluna) reported

    @radsaza @nintendo @mojang let them pay or we're gonna have Problems .

  • GFallsBelieber Rew! #10YearsofGravityFalls (@GFallsBelieber) reported

    @Nefylia Really need them to restock on this ;-; I‘ve thought of trying to chat with Nintendo customer service just to see if they can say when/if a restock is happening xP

  • blacknwhtmaroi black and white mario (@blacknwhtmaroi) reported

    @ZoteMilk @breakingmorb @NintendoAmerica If Nintendo massively ***** up, they deserve all the backlash they get. This wouldn't have even been an issue if Nintendo had allowed retailers to sell it, like literally every other special edition of every other game.

  • RealSashaD Sasha Dawkins✨ (@RealSashaD) reported from Gosport, England

    @NintendoUK @NintendoEurope I linked my PayPal & added funds (£20) on the 2/7 to my account via PayPal for an online membership for 12 months. When I check on my Switch, my account is saying PayPal is not linked and I have no funds! How do I fix this?

  • iqwiisports ***** AND STOCKINGS BACK BITCHESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS (@iqwiisports) reported

    you know what irritates me the fact the nintendo switch online nintendo 64 service doesn't have that rewind feature

  • sir_lefty_ttv Sir Lefty (@sir_lefty_ttv) reported

    Scalpers haven’t helped the issue either. Given Nintendo’s messy first shot at launching this pre-order and the chaos of this second one, I think it’s fair to expect better. Is it unfair to expect a company as big as @NintendoAmerica to have the infrastructure to handle this?

  • ReverBB3 🤨📸 (@ReverBB3) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Fix the animations

  • OpaFuchsi OpaFuchsi (@OpaFuchsi) reported

    @FallGuysGame WTF is wrong with your support? I cant get my account on the nintendo switch! i already lost 2 million kudos and the battle pass progress thanks to switching my profile to playstation and its still not working on the nintendo switch!!!

  • but_step But_Step_Bro (@but_step) reported

    @NintendoAmerica fix your sports or add more because it's honestly trash at this point.

  • TheBiryaniKing •lكًودُ : خًصًمً (@TheBiryaniKing) reported

    Fix it. Nintendo's Battle to Dominate Videogames Shame and ؟? نمشے 🔹XX5🔹 🔹XX5🔹 🔹XX5🔹

  • W2MSean Sean Garmer (@W2MSean) reported

    That would be really cool if the #Nintendo subscription service that's in Japan for fixing a Switch came to the West at some point as well. Rather interesting idea to have a gaming warranty you pay monthly for.

  • raw_miss_honey tink 🧚🏼💚 (@raw_miss_honey) reported

    Spends $436 on PC parts but I will not send my switch to Nintendo for 100 bucks so they can fix it LMAO why am I like this

  • potatosnipezosu potatosnipez (@potatosnipezosu) reported

    hey nintendo, fix ******* kazuya, one combo get me at 85% from 0%$ like wtf

  • NotBoogey Noob Saibot 🌐 (@NotBoogey) reported

    @RecDTRH There's a Mask video game? They need put this on the Nintendo Online service.

  • Nyax_50_Lopez NYAX #50 Lopez 🔞 commissions coming soon! (@Nyax_50_Lopez) reported

    @AndrewAlerts Nah I know the pro switch isn't coming in until 2100 which is stated by Nintendo. Since they are doing everything to fix the joy con drift :v
