@seandiko_ This is why we had a test splatfest in the first place, so Nintendo could test their servers, I trust they’ll fix this in the full *** game

@7Foxlife7 @ProjectYinYang PlayStation and Nintendo are my bias. The worst about Xbox is that they took existing symbols for the buttons (ABXY) and ******* SWITCHED them!!! Either use the existing scheme or don't re-use the symbols GOD. Now because of this I have trouble with Steam Controls as well x__x

Nintendo needs to fix losing your win streak if you leave lobby/the rotation changes. 99-Win streak isn't possible until they do

@RetroEthan64 @TwosomesPat Oh I'm sold on one now. Who knows maybe I will get game pass at some point but currently have no plans to. I need to see more from Sony if I'm gonna subscribe to their service and as for Nintendo, yeah, I've been sold on them since day one heh

A server issue? Are you serious? That Nintendo couldn't afford more so instead we had to wait for other regions to log off? **** Australia then I guess

@Lord_Arse I remember getting this one via subscription. Was about to turn ten years old. The wait for Nintendo 64 was killing me. Also, 3D Tetris was covered in this issue. The Virtual Boy's days were numbered. I didn't know it yet.

(@allykittycafe) reported
Most of my problems have to do with NSO. Nintendos Online Servers are seriously holding back their games nowadays. Splat 3 has so much potential to be so awesome, but unless Nintendo seriously steps up their online server performance then that'll definitely hurt them.

@Nyghtwolf1 @NintendoAmerica How did you try joining someone? Because if it was gray it meant no one was online and there was a mode you would have to turn on and stuff, I played with like 3 friends so what was your issue?

Okay so two of us playing solo que is instant matches. Two of us playing as a group has 4 minute eventual connection errors. So it's not our internet, it's clearly just Nintendo being ****. 😬

My @NintendoAmerica 3DS was behaving weirdly, so I ran a hardware diagnostic tool. 9 billion errors. 🥲

See how this vid looks depressing I tried EU, JP and the other country server, I tried to play with my gf but the matchmaking is going infinity, so i couldn't play a single battle. Nintendo, be sure to fix it for the official launch or i swear i'll destroy smth.

Loch32 SPLATOON 3 HYPE 🐷👑
(@Loch32_) reported
I'm loving splatoon 3 but the matchmaking is ******* horrendous. More disconnects and unstable connection notices than I ever got playing splatoon 2. Nintendo, please fix this because everything else is great but I'm about to put my controller through my tv

@AnthonyPool450 @BIahBIahB1ah @PS_Vortex Crash and GT were pretty revolutionary, but nothing on the level of Halo, gears, and Nintendo games. PlayStation rn are a shadow of their formerselves. No innovation, just the same action adventure games that don’t move the industry forward. There are plenty of better devs.

@NintendoAmerica But when f zero or og donkey Kong has an anniversary there's no mention from y'all.....cuz it's not on your service or doesn't have a current game for y'all to push

@notntdogey @JohnstoneYT If they're gonna purposefully stop the consumer from buying it in any capacity legally other than the collectors and scalpers market while actively encouraging that too then there's legitimately nothing wrong with pirating from Nintendo, its pirating Indies games, thats a problem

@Thilanka1989 @RjeyTech Bruv, I connected my goddamn Nintendo 3DS to my iPhone hotspot. This sounds like a you problem or a problem with your data provider, not Apple

@djmarinaocto @Ovengoats If I play other online games flawlessly, but suddenly Splatoon and many other Nintendo games have connection issues despite playing wired, maybe it isn't my Internet connection.

It's kinda funny how nintendo went from making a revolutionary introducing for their online gaming with the famicom in the 80's / mid 90's to the most dog **** waste of money online service in existence by 2022

Fixing those issues should only take a quick patch and server update, and no doubt Nintendo will do that
