@DanKnowsNothing @batouttahell24 @NintendoAmerica I've had no issues with OoT from what I've noticed, but I haven't played it enough to really tell.

@dirtypaws_ They know what it is, but them, Microsoft and Nintendo are just persisting with the same components that are causing the issue, so they clearly just don't care. Also I hope you're enjoying Kena!

Really? You're just going to ad Paper Mario and act like the service is somehow now worth the fee? Weak, @NintendoAmerica. Super weak.

@PAzumarill @monsterhunter Yeah I know but that’s the problem, because then the Nintendo only people have to miss out on a title. It’s just a strange way to do things now that the series is more popular.

I'm confused why my baby Switch all of a sudden not working 😒 one thing she gone do is take care of her iPad and Nintendo, so I'm confused. Guess she getting a new one

@Kefla_880 Yet this doesn’t seem to be a problem on either Nintendo or Xbox’s servers. Which goes to show you how Sony’s handling of the situation is. Wish she knew the gamertag of this modder so we could go report them

Nintendo branded items (I believe because of a single inauthenticity complaint?) - who incidentally didn't return the item. Just think about that for a minute. Now the problem is that Amazon are, quite rightly, asking for proof of purchase for me to be able to re-apply.

@Minecraft Yall need to fix the glitches for The Nintendo switch and PS4 and stop updating things. Stop adding things and fix all the glitches.

Dude. @Pokemon @NintendoAmerica I just traded my Graveler with some random on your global trade area for Brilliant Diamond. I expected them to trade it back immediately (as I kept prompting). They ran off with my Pokémon. WTF. Fix this broken a$$ crap! Are you kidding me!?!?

I mean, ****, Animal Crossing barely even HAS a settings menu!! You wanna adjust the color coding of the game's UI? Having trouble with the font size? **** you, says Nintendo

Well, I just tested recording a game on my PC and it recorded fine compared to my Nintendo Switch and Elgato, so it could be kind of broken :( On the plus side, I could upgrade to a new model of Elgato I guess

@shacor13 You know Nintendo will fix those for free? They got sued and now they are replacing them. But I bought a wireless regular controller for that very reason cause f the joycon bs

@Dave19Brown83 @NintendoAmerica I somewhat agree. The games are being emulated though, not ported. You program the emulator to run the games and then check for compatibility issues with the games and any special features(like needing expansion pack). They mostly just need QC.

@MoyanoJerald @TheKrustyKoopa @NintendoAmerica Then it’s not free? It’s part of the service just like Nintendos op was arguing it should be free because Nintendo is rich

For items you can still buy from distributors, that's obviously no problem. BUT, I sell used Nintendo Wii products which were last sold through distribution in 2013, 8 years ago, so what I'm being asked to provide by Amazon is impossible for me to do. Does that make sense?

people be like "hey, I lost your number, hit me back so I can add you back" bro, that sounds like a YOU problem. quoting Em: "you don't get a 2nd chance, life is no Nintendo game" #AntisocialSocialClub

@celestesys @Multicolourmodo I work at an electronics retailer and these would actually be more useful than you'd think, pricing issue aside ($80 CAN is standard for Nintendo games as it were). I get a lot of customers saying "my kid wants the Mario game" and then they don't know how to answer "which one?"

@TheGreatZubari That still shouldn't be a problem when WWE has no problem letting Nintendo have some of their newer games on Switch.

@JuiceMan_V Naw, cause they have been successful without it. That service isn't really profitable, Nintendo is better off reinvesting into their first party like they are doing.

@downi75 I assume his claimed health issues are exaggerated for beneficial use. He not only shuts the Nintendo off when losing but he blames dirt getting in his eyes for coming in last in Mario kart.

One thing I've been seeing a lot is that supposedly this code was put here to more accurately emulate this game on original hardware, since supposedly there was also lag sometimes when the menu was opened on the Nintendo 64.

@NintendoAmerica what’s with the poor customer service and almost 3 months of being given the run around about repairs?
