@ElPetete5 With in a month of the games release there was a "non-canon" single issue manga that seems to only exist to address problems with the plot implying that people within Nintendo has similar concerns.

@NintendoAmerica My switch controller keeps drifting left. Kind of inconvenient, and I'm far from the only one with this issue. Is there any sort of recall/fix/replacement available?

@Swiftor @NintendoAmerica I read the card slot to put the games can be irritating if you have no fingernails. You find any trouble with that?

We should do a trend on Twitter where we want Crash to be free of @Activision clutches, we can even call it #freethebandicoot if we want to spread the word in order to let Activision give the Crash IP to a different video game company like @NintendoAmerica or something...

@RogersHelps The Nintendo switch connects fine to my personal hotspot on my phone but will not connect to the wifi ever since the filter your service person put on

@woomywommy I think burn in would be a legit issue I doubt Nintendo is smart enough to prevent it effectively

@NintendoUK #DPDLettingCustomersDown I have travelled 42 miles to pickup my New OLED Switch due to them yesterday not delivering my orders! I will cancel orders and get from Amazon a much more reliable company and better service than DPD

@BlutrauschSSB @NintendoAmerica Appreciate your response. I've beaten all the Prime games without issue, but the 2D Metroid games have always been a struggle for me. I did finally manage to defeat Corpius after another 2 attempts, but it was very frustrating. I'd rather my games not be so frustrating.

@AidenRS139 I'll take both Crash and Eggman over the other 2. It actually doesn't surprise me that Master Chief isn't in Smash because Nintendo I think has asked Microsoft for other partnerships and I think they just weren't interested lol.

@XenithLive @uncrnsprklfrts @SpawnWaveMedia The Steam Deck is a pro-consumer machine. It lets you do what you want with the hardware you paid for. Nintendo products previously did not allow for fair competition because they force you to use a Nintendo system to play the games you enjoy, this fixes that issue.

@Subject083 @eurogamer Soproblem is not HOW TO DO iT or how much will cost,because there is already ways to do it for FREE, but Nintendo Playstation and XBOX just NOT do it because they use this "Problem" as a sort of SCAM\FRAUD, they know the thumbstick will be fault and then re-sell $64€ controllers

@NintendoUK What's going on with your deliveries? I'm still waiting for my Collectors edition of Metroid Dread that was due Yesterday. I understand issues with that at the moment just would like an update to when it can be expected. Otherwise I'd have bought it elsewhere.

@tomathius @NinEverything Yeah, i’m glad i left it alone on my OLED. My uncle who works for Nintendo said that they’ll also issue a cease and desist order for your relatives after you’ve been suffocated for removing it.

@LarryLongLegs04 @watertrevy Apparently Nintendo will never fix joycon drift. The Switch lite at times suffers from joycon drift as well. Might be a good idea to buy the full sized switch in that instance. The Switch lite is really cool tho. My kids have them and I play them from time to time.

@JStheoriginal It’s tough because I paid £26 for it due to a pricing error but having played it I would have paid full price which with exchange rates is around the same as it is in Canada. I think it’s on par with any Nintendo published game.

E.M.M.I from Metroid Dread

@macksboyden I can play every single one of them on my pc and have a better experience, that's really the main issue with the switch: The only incentives to get the console are Nintendo games that will never leave the console, and they don't come out/get updates often enough to fill the gaps

@rebellos00 Xbox users brag about gamepass and teraflops while Playstation gamers care about playing the industry's best AAA games. A rental service is not an excuse for Xbox to release lower quality games than PS and Nintendo. Be better.
