That Gamer Couple 🎮
(@X_GamerCouple_X) reported
@drgnslilwhore77 The v1.1.0 patch that came out today was more for small things and the starting of the competitive scene and hasnt fixed many technical things that hurt the performance but they are planning to fix it in the months ahead says Nintendo/Pokemon Co.

@jinjo360 If I had to guess? A combination of money and potential emulation issues. Banjo Tooie may not emulate well on the Switch hardware, but I'm not an expert in that kind of thing. Maybe Rare wants more money than Nintendo want to give them for it?

They shouldve fixed the box system with that patch, bc i cant select multiple pokemon and go to “all boxes” and deposit up to 30 pokemon into an empty box. The box system from SwSh was perfect, there was no need to try and fix it @Pokemon @NintendoAmerica

OKAY FIRST. I've praised these games and defended them even though they have a ridiculous amount of issues... WTF lmao These Charizard raids are broken! beaten it 5 times with a group all prepared and the health bar just refills! like this is a joke. @Pokemon @NintendoAmerica

@pokejungle @NintendoAmerica @Pokemon These aren't frequent from what I can tell. Personally I only experienced 1 crash but the game autosaved regularly enough

@NintendoAmerica @Pokemon your online service/implementation is ridiculous. The lag, glitchiness, and inconsistency in these raids for #ScarletViolet needs to be fixed, especially for these spotlight events. Jfc be competent for once.

@NintendoAmerica If you care about the game then release at least a stabile Version of it. You ask for a lot of money for a product that don't worth the price. You fix clone glitch and other minor issues while the game have seriuos problems.

If only Scarlet and Violet weren't PS1 titles parading on a Switch! 😭 I love these games. I love the new Pokémon. I love everything about it except the performance issues. WHY NINTENDO WHY DO YOU DO THIS?! 😭😭😭😭😭

@Dave19Brown83 @NintendoAmerica …? Do you think Sakurai is the only one in all of Nintendo who can access those renders?? Maybe issues with copyright might be a prevention, but your reason doesn’t make sense XD

(@mushthemellow1) reported
**** you Nintendo you lying ******. "We take our customer's feedback very seriously about performance and bug issues." Bullshit no you don't. All you did was get rid of koraidon/miraidon dupe and the game looks exactly the same. You didn't fix **** you just took away the fun.

@MowzaProduction @FiggerPick @OrwellNGoode I agree, but Nintendo sucks too. Infact all tv games and movies have been such trash for so long. The 2008 crash killed everything good in life. And then adobe and apple killed free online games. Cant even play all the great games online. No active x controls..sincelike2yearsago

That's not to say Nintendo deserves no criticism whatsoever for the issues with the game. I'm not going simp for billion dollar corporations. I just... legitimately enjoy this game more than anything I've played in awhile. They took the best parts of Arceus+SS and leaned in.

(@ElliottsLament) reported
@AndrewKnob @TheWelbe @90sWWE How can you speak with any authority on a console you didn't even buy? The N64 mini doesn't exist simply because Nintendo hasn't decided to make one yet(and possibly technical issues that other people have mentioned).

... then nintendo buffs weapons like the bow and stamper that already have a huge lag advantage and kill when they aren't even aiming remotely close to me. to be on equal terms, ultra stamp would need to have splashdown AoE and the sploosh would need nzap range.

@sneasley_11 @NewMacBookUgly @Zuby_Tech this game is not demanding at all my previous 3090 TI PC destroys this game at native 4K 165fps max settings these are old graphics and nintendo graphics on top of that that a potato like the nintendo switch should run without problems. you should be with me demanding better
