So... I know how to fix the NFT problem. But it requires a Martyr. Some need to start making NFTs of official Disney or Nintendo properties. They'll shut that **** immediately once they here money is moving. Its like those t-shirt bots from a while ago.

I used to have no issue buying Switch games from any region I needed. But one week ago Nintendo added an e-shop in Chile and poof, magically any attempts to buy any game were impossible. "Error: This is not your region, go back to your country" And local cards arent working.

@Tappxor @NintendoAmerica 1. I like that there was actually an improvement, but they totally missed the chance to use a better battery in itself. Not a big deal though. 2. That still doesn't exactly fix the issue of the controllers, which imo is the biggest issue of the two.

@Stealth40k JRPGs were the problem with Smash and the reason why I hate the game Other genres exist Nintendo. Its not just ******* RPGs

@Wario64 I believe the claim that they’ve incorporated the newer hardware into repairs. I had my launch joycons repaired for free by Nintendo in 2019 and they’ve worked excellent with no issues since

@NintendoAmerica I can careless about screen or even a pro version. Just fix or make new joycons that don't drift after 30 hrs. Or lower the damn price of them if u will continue to make them cheap.

@NintendoUK Haven't received any Pokémon trainer club codes for celebi and Zarude even though I've signed up to the newsletter, know others that have had the same issue. Are they being sent in batches? Yes I've checked my spam.

@Doctor_Cupcakes @NintendoUK Nah I ordered from Walmart in the Us but I know a good amount of people getting stuff like Metroid and OLEDs shipped to close for comfort or getting them after launch day so probably some issues if I’d guess not supply just getting the supply around.

@nintendo @mercurysteam please fix this, or at least offer some insight as to how I'm stuck. At the moment, it appears I'm entirely softlocked

@parunephantom Game theory: it WAS CRASH but then the Activision Blizzard stuff began to happen so Nintendo immediately began to contact Disney

@PeerIGN do you have anyone running screen burn tests on the new Nintendo switch OLED? As a potential buyer, I’m very interested to know if it’s an issue.

@haveyouseen01 I was totally fine with it. The problem was the support that they received. It also became too expensive for Sony. It’s a shame Sony didn’t have the money, they really had an awesome plan last generation. It’s funny how Xbox and Nintendo are doing their ideas but better.

@CeroFrio1 @DakCity_ I mean smash has a huge budget and can actually afford to fix the majority of the issues that plague the game not to mention smash's price in comparison to Nasb, smash, where I'm from cost you 80 dollars in the Nintendo store for that price you expect it to have decent online.

@opwnusprime @JeffGrubb @MatteFlowers No clue, but I think Nintendo may be a little wary of handing Metroid over to a Japanese dev known for their really good third person action combat after the debacle of Other M(granted most of the issues with that game are not really Team Ninja's fault, but still).

@ExpandDong15 It would've been out of left field, unlike Sora. And if you say Sora was unlikely because of Disney, you're kidding yourself. I doubt Nintendo had major issues getting Disney on board for such a massive opportunity for their otherwise (relatively) dormant franchise.

@BLO0DYSMILES @NintendoAmerica That’s like saying I should also speak to other managers at a different restaurant when the restaurant I’m at served me crap. Nintendo is the problem so that’s where my priority is.

@Jotaru_Josey @Dan_AVA Except most customers won’t bother or even complain, they’ll just buy another one. I guess Nintendo has little reason to fix this as its more money for them. Also most childs don’t mind drift. My son keeps playing and doesn’t complain until I use his switch and notice the drift.

@Nintendeal I swear, so many older figures at Nintendo would highly disapprove of this attitude and continue to manufacture this problem.

@NickBrawlGame @Nintendo Is there a forum available, or proper channels for player feedback? I love the game, and I wanna report some issues or concerns I find.

@NintendoAmerica I never believed or cared about the Switch pro rumors, and didn't expect much, but frankly I don't see a reason to buy this. There's really not enough changes to justify its price in my opinion. I'm glad other people like it, but like they couldn't at least fix the battery life?

@Nintendeal This is a croc of ****. No other controller in the past that I have ever used had "drift" issues. Nintendo just used low quality parts in the Joy-Cons.

@Voided__Reality @metroidhunter94 @NintendoAmerica How is emulation not valid? Please explain You don't have to buy another entire console for it, which seems to be your problem here. Explain what I'm doing wrong
