@SSTArtwork Do you want me to respond to you with all the c&d's issued by Disney? Nintendo? Just because it sometimes works for smaller creators, doesn't mean it's not a broken and horrible system

@NintendoAmerica The glitches remind me of Quake. Maybe you should hire Carmack to fix the bugs

@MOTSUtambo From what I can tell it's a NAT issue. Most people see it fixed once they update their router. When people contact Nintendo they always tell them to contact their ISP about updating their router.

@NintendoAmerica @Pokemon please fix the extremely buggy online raids in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. The lag and the health being buggy and the timing between my moves, teammates moves and raid boss moves is absurd. It'd be nice to have a turn order bar at the top or something.

Nintendo’s online service isn’t as good (my internet connection isn’t either, I think) but I only have to pay $20 once a year. Game pass seems better than both ps plus and nso. But I like the selection of games better on the other two consoles.

@NintendoAmerica A nice way to apologize to you fanbase is surely fix that performance issues mess and give us a Starmobile as an official usable form. A nice and unique gift, showing us your will to avoid these problems next time. PS: the next Pokémon games must be WAY better on that aspects!

@XXXMajora @MightyKeef Nah not really unless you like the same formulaic Nintendo games from 20 years ago (mario kart, smash, animal crossing etc) there’s not as many compared to the PS5 or Xbox nevermind the bad graphics, garbage online service, terrible controller etc

@m_rizky_gumilar Again, what games are you applying? Remember ps1 was the only platform along with Nintendo. Also Sega Dreamcast was already failing due to Sega's financial problems. Ps1 made it easier for devs unlike Nintendo who remained in the past. No gatekeeping keep saying it scrub.

@DrikGri @NerdFactorYGO Nintendo only has 32% of the pokemon company, the other two companies having shares in it are game freaks and a 3rd one who mostly do spin offs & the tcg. The problem is game freaks.

The meta crash of 2022 really is no different than the video game crash of 1983. Too many systems to choose from with too many underdeveloped games and no true AAA games being pushed to the public. @Nintendo now's your chance to repeat history. #virtualboy2

Really wish I had a @OnDeck steam deck or a Nintendo switch right now. Internet outage, dead internet tap in the yard. And could be a 2 week wait.

@IsXboxStillLast @XcloudTimdog How does Sony drop literally the biggest exclusive it will have all generation and still come in 3rd place in sales? Nintendo dropped a broken Pokemon game and Xbox dropped nothing Thats embarrassing

Cant we get someone to give the smash community some actual direction and communication from nintendo? Peoples lives are being upended by poor communication and a lack of understanding from the company toward esports.. what is the disconnect? Cant they hire @Reggie to help?

@TwitchSupport the Twitch app on @NintendoAmerica Switch is broken. Crashes every time there is an ad or you change channel. You need to improve the UI to better support touch. Full software reset required every time it happens. It should be delisted if you can't fix it.

Does anyone know how to get a Power A Nintendo Switch wired controller to connect to the Switch? It's software is updated, the switch is on and plugged to a display, the wires are all secure, and the wired pro controller setting is enabled on the Switch, but it's not working

@SplatDroid @NintendoAmerica I don't know if it's just me, but it feels like chargers, rollers and bloblobbers have the lag.
