@CentroLeaks My bet Nintendo found 1 bug that can MAYBE be used to exploit the switch into letting you run homebrew if you tried really hard and pointed a gun at GF like "Fix it or become Ghastly"

@NintendoAmerica "We take the feedback from players seriously" - releases broken game with no fixes in sight

@JoseTarango98 @NintendoAmerica @Pokemon So you don't see a problem with a company charging 60$ (or close to 120) for a game that has the worst framerate to graphics ratio since.....idk if I even have a comparison. They didn't even polish the 2hrs of unskippable intros. Don't stand up for companies, make them be better.

@NintendoAmerica Yes fix the music that's the issue

I'm just imagining Nintendo walking into Game freak with half of Monolith Soft's developers behind them kicking game freak devs out of chairs going.... "Move we have to fix your mess." Lol I know it didn't happen like that....but that's what I'm imagining.

@NintendoAmerica To 100% clear, the game under the bugs is great. The performance issues and bugs and hiding that. The game should been delayed until it was in a state where it actual works.

@SuperSpeed21YT @WhoOrderPizza @NintendoAmerica Funny because the 3D in XY wasn’t always on because of performance issues and then the took out 3D in the next 3DS game because again performance. Gamefreak can’t optimize for ****

@datamaru @SimplicityMarx @NintendoAmerica The item dupe glitch

@NintendoAmerica @Pokemon Btw for those who don't feel they don't mention performance issues or map clipping or animation stutter. So yes it's still gonna be broken as hell.

@NintendoAmerica Super Mario movie...A clear disconnect from reality. Executive decision fail based on what's considered popular. Nothing against Chris Pratt but holy **** couldn't 1 ******* person tell Execs early on how stupid of a decision this was??

@NintendoAmerica Your game is so broken. Terra raids failing when the pokemons hp is at 0 because of queuing and performance and shields not breaking

@fr0gs3 Nintendo literally paid Monolith Soft to make Xenoblade 2 in a way that shows the hardware power of the console upon release. And we know they certainly did! Of course it still took a while to load sometimes, but there weren't any outstanding issues like this!

@anotterMasked @HoundGrey The refunds are not cause the game is broken, its cause people are using a weird deal or something Nintendo has with eshop brought games, its also a 1 time thing

@kyokaramaoh46 @SimplicityMarx @NintendoAmerica At least they said they know about the performance issue
-

(@Euphemismic) reported
@SuperSpeed21YT @WhoOrderPizza @NintendoAmerica I know, but those games had performance issues when the 3D was on because GF can’t optimize for a single hardware target if their life depended on it

(@MCWSalv) reported
@NintendoAmerica Now the question is, will they fix all the performance problems? Or will it just be online related stuff.

@NintendoAmerica Okay but does it actually fix anything though?

@StylishSoprano People are rude. I wish nintendo would bbing some to Canada, but that's a Nintendo problem. You buying all the packs (which you didn't), has nothing to do with me not ever able to buy them.

Who cares
(@ShinyHaunter05) reported
@minecraftmud @CentroLeaks If you get detected in any way with duped items/Pokémon you deserve a permanent suspension from the Nintendo service for Pokémon.

@SnakeEater_MCOC @NintendoAmerica aaaaaand you would rather they not fix the glitches first? Performance isn't necessarily game breaking, but glitches are. You can't expect miracles here.

@AzureSkySM @NintendoAmerica I don't think they're going to fix most of it still, the patch notes on that site just mention the e4 music bug "and other bugfixes"

@NintendoAmerica Please make the shiny hunt accessible for the people with vision problems. At least a sparkle...

I’m just so fed up with shot I can’t enjoy anything anymore and here’s Nintendo “we’re gonna patch exploits for money and items instead of fix the real problems cuz we’re really ******* retarded” like wtf why don’t you actually fix stuff that’s impacting the game negatively!!!

@NintendoAmerica The fans want Quality on release! Please adopt a release schedule that allows for more polish, more content, and more time to fix bugs!

@NintendoAmerica I just want y'all to fix the performance. The game is great, but having to constantly play at like 15fps is just grating and ruins the experience. Hard to believe it's on the same system as BOTW and Xenoblade when it runs and looks like that.

@WhoOrderPizza @NintendoAmerica It's not a developer issue. It's a release schedule issue. Every Pokemon game since X and Y were rushed and unfinished, so they could churn out as many as possible

@chuggaaconroy @HeavensPiercing @NintendoAmerica It is the Nintendo fanbase we are talking about. I was told the game sold 10 million so they aren't going to fix anything ever again. Strange they wanna fix the game regardless of sales.

@CurvyKirby @NintendoAmerica The temptation to come back to this tweet a year from now and look at the state of the game... Why do people love to pretend like a patch fixes all issues?

@NintendoAmerica This would happen if fix the bug before release the game
