Hyrule Warriors for Nintendo Switch still feels broken due to its low frame rate and it can't handle too many characters on screen.

@bokigoat Playstation makes interactive movies with boring stories and insulting gameplay. Xbox makes ****** shooters,and horrible open world games,and gamepass is a poor service. Nintendo makes games for kids. Soulija boy dominates

@TomLegend101 Geez, whose Internet is making this lag? Cause seriously, I don't think this level of lag is normal for any Nintendo Online game.

I'd argue Sony is worse, since they don't even really have a service for playing older games on current consoles, unlike Nintendo and Microsoft.

@OddballPaladin @NintendoAmerica I don’t think there’s really too much discussion here anymore: yes this was a problem, but it’s a solid 7 versions old (article you linked is 5 years old). That’s that

Saying once again that @nintendo get away with so much The Switch controller issue would sink anyone else but they seem to just get away with it as they pedal last gen tech at tomorrow's prices with a huge fail rate. Love their games but hate their hardware. Call them out

THAT SO BULL! I fought against a Duck Hunt and they raged quit at the end. What's so bull is that I played by their lame ruleset which is 3 stocks and 4 MINUTES! I can understand 5 minutes but 4?! They denied me my GSP and that's so unfair. Plz fix @NintendoAmerica (1/2)

@litaboga @The_CrapGamer @MldGhost If Nintendo had their XGP like service more people would have the opportunity to play Astral Chain unfortunately got overshadowed by Fire Emblem and Pokemon Sword and Shield

@Necksplitter You don't even need to dig deep to find issues with Skyward Sword. The game did so many things wrong that Nintendo had to course correct so hard they ended creating a game that it was almost its opposite, Breath of the Wild.

@imPulse00001 the real trouble with the nintendo account is that its overrun with "nintendo bad" or "nintendo can do no bad" extremists, much like the PS and Xbox comments being littered with "X system better"

@VGDensetsu The ROM file was corrected 3 years ago & documented as such at No-Intro. Upsilandre used an old version of the ROM file (with an incorrect iNES header). The error was detected back then & verified against multiple new dump sources + verification with a leaked Nintendo lotcheck.

@JoseBer56296540 @Crimson_Mayhem_ Nah, if Nintendo chose Crash for FP2, that would have happened long before it was revealed of what Activision was enabling. And if he is the last fighter, it would be too late to go back on it by now since he's probably near completion.

Nintendo keeps throwing new items at animal crossing like that'll fix the fact no one is playing it anymore. Im not going back for another dumb item. I'll go back when characters don't have a cardboard personality.

@MemeSlayer09 @The_568 The problem with it was there hadn’t been a new AC game in years and nintendo shat out a massive disappointment on its own it isn’t the worst game ever but it is unbelievably pointless and i can guarantee a lot of long time AC players were probably too pissed to enjoy it lmao

@MenningOwen That "if" is doing a lot of legwork. Nintendo's online is so poorly programmed that you need really good internet to avoid lag. And they expect everyone to have that good internet. It's unrealistic. Also, servers would also work flawlessly if everyone had good internet.

@popcornparfait nintendo would shut it down because all the continuity errors and shoddy animation would horrify them
