@MooMooCracked Please call Nintendo and report this issue—they need to know who is experiencing the issue so they can start tracking the problem. I had like 5 crashes during the splatfest and got quit banned for it.

@CommanderGetal @sonikuenjoyer No. Disney at least learns from their errors and hires writers who have a passion. The movies suck. The shows are decent. Nintendo isn’t even that good…

@towinrei @srmoska @aesthetics_re nah it was to rush it out of the door as fast as possible we have leaked emails inbetween nintendo and nvida that goes "Theses graphics cards have issues" "we know but inshahalla nobody will notice" and that's how the switch got pirated

I do think Nintendo could do more to mitigate matchmaking issues during Splatfests but the way people are acting over getting spawn camped for a 3 minute match is a little ridiculous. We've all been on both ends, you're only upset bc you're on the receiving end

@Nemesis1133 That’s valid tbh I just don’t like it’s the same type of comp but this time I’m doing it with a gutted weapon :( idk maybe they’ll fix brellas but I don’t trust Nintendo after the s2 range blaster incident

@Anise_Redssrab It bring their promise does not negate the fact that previous games had more content within the same timeframe And considering this has been a problem for the switch it’s whole life with a lot of Nintendo games…yeah no I’m gonna complain

@Tyrielwood @fieldof_vision I like the pimax idea, but looks to have josticks like Nintendo joycon=probably drift problem… So I suggest asking @pimaxofficial if they have the same models and if they have worked to avoid this known bug, since it is the only weak point that I see in the proposal.

My entire Twitter is just Splatoon stuff and for an outsider it’s like “I can’t believe Nintendo designed against Sea Blaster strats in Capture the Spuncher mode. OOH BUT THE LARGE FISH FINGER UPDATE COULD FIX IT ALL” like I’m so lost are you guys okay blink twice

@_Hellblade @thegameawards Bethesda hasn't made a proper RPG since Morrowind, if you think Fallout 4 and 76 were RPG's I have sad news for you. And least Nintendo games release in a proper state, unlike the broken pieces on crap Bethesda makes.

I did get Sonic Frontiers for my girlfriend on her Nintendo Switch and watched her play it a bit over the weekend; I actually was genuinely surprised with how well it runs in the system, I was expecting there would be issues with the frame rates but it runs at a stable 30 FPS

@SpawnWaveMedia IF even with Pokémon(OLED Pokémon Model) is not enough to be No.1 then Nintendo will be having emergency meetings. Seems like Ragnarok(PS5 Ragnarok Bundle) has broken some sales records 👀🔥

Can Nintendo fix the Splatoon 3 ‘crash after comm error in Salmon Run’ bug at some point? It seems to be dependent on the rotation But like, either after a comm error OR after being in sleep mode, the game will crash while trying to load the Grizzco lobby, and it’s infuriating.

@NintendoAmerica / @SplatoonNA really needs to fix this! If I had known that Pro was where you play as a solo I would have wasted a lot less time...and probably racked up a lot less defeats for my side...if Grass looses it's cause the game was rigged! #Splatoon3 #Splatfest

@NintendoAmerica Hey can you fix a 3ds that snapped in half and that is missing some pieces? Please get back to me if you have time

Same feeling I have for anything made by Blizard, Naughty Dog or Ubisoft (to some extent Nintendo) geting nominated. And if your response is "well if you remove all the games made under crunch from the awards then there will be no games nominated!" Exactly, see the problem?

@LuigiBlood Honestly I am still not convinced that the only reason we don’t have VC is bc Nintendo realized they could make far more money with a subscription service.

@8bitGrrl While this is cool and I'd like to take the rom for a spin, there is a problem. Nintendo doesn't like this stuff. Now that it's pointed out it will more than likely be shut down.

@SilverChannl45 @OpinionatedStud @GamerGuyd7Aces The issue is that it was Sega directly that caused Boom to be so bad, because they made a deal with Nintendo and then forced the studio to port Boom to the Wii U instead of the PS4 and Xbox One, all while not giving them nearly enough time to fix all of the issues that caused.

@flyingcatss_ They won’t have a fix soon if they don’t know there is a problem—please call Nintendo and report with them. They need to know who is having this issue so they can figure out what the problem is. Thanks!

So I took @PixieKittie_'s broken Nintendo Switch with the intention of repairing it before the launch of Pokemon Scarlet/Violet and I have only managed as far as taking a few screws out in about 6 months. The game releases this week. PAIN

@Bruno84455554 @OatmealDome I contacted Nintendo support—they said that from their end, they see no permanent strikes or bans against my account, so it’s only the splatoon in-game bans, which are annoying. But they said they had no reports of this issue yet… people need to call and report it to them!
