@NintendoAmerica Both Nintendo cust. service and UPS refuse to assist with changing the shipping address and will not talk to each other. I cannot do anything and am trapped by two rigid policies that refuse to help.

@Le_Kenzie0w0 I guess my bigger issue is that Nintendo never transfer any of the content onto their later platforms. I think what Mutahar is just saying companies are just very negligent about their content. They obviously have no obligation but that is precisely why people say to pirate.

The first hour playing xenoblade 3. It doesn’t feel like I’m playing on Nintendo switch. Looks too good. No frame pacing issues either.

@2WayIntrsctn @ArendAlphaEagle @NintendoAmerica But this remix doesn't fit Waluigi Pinball. That's the issue. They did 48 original compositions for original Deluxe (technically more thanks to Animal Crossing) so doing a 48th remix after doing 47 more for the Booster Pass wouldn't have been THAT bad.

@NintendoAmerica I have called both your cust. service & UPS & cannot get assistance with changing my address since I am moving for the Xeno Chronicles 3 shipment. The core game is going to an address I will not be living at and the SE contents cannot be changed. Please help me!

@Greywall_ @Caleb_v_W @mirrormantf I'm pretty sure Nintendo does with this Smash Bros . . . characters behind a paywall. No one really whines/complains about that (unless I don't pay attention), so why is this suddenly an issue?

@avataryaya_ @Dayvon_p @Palushina That would require Nintendo to give a ****. Which they don’t. Also remasters DO NOT happen with them ever. It’s kind of a big problem.

@coferu_spl that's weird - i haven't heard of that error before. was there nothing Nintendo could do themselves? or was your switch out of warranty?

@6amerBr0 Yes imo, also no to updating, i doubt Nintendo would update already released tracks honestly unless it's a bug fix

@Youniiik @Valbun_ True, but A) QR apps are just about everywhere now for just about everything and B) what restaurants could do is what Nintendo Switch does when sending screenshots to your phone: 1 code for WiFi login, 1 code for the webpage.

@kala2k7 It really irritates me how curvy female characters have been seen as so in appropriate nowadays… they completely ruined Tawna in new crash bandicoot games and removed ms bellum from powerpuff girls etc. this makes me respect Nintendo 💯

@TOPolk @NintendoAmerica Bruh online functionality that actually functions. Want 8 player strikers and smash games that don’t lag out. I got fiber internet but don’t mater for switch.

@Charlie01081586 @Louis5522063 @NintendoAmerica You do have to ask is the next software update will fix the Ninja Hideaway oversight though. It actually should be called "Tour Ninja Hideaway", since it's not original to MK8D.

@iCach0 No they aren’t omg. Most Sony and Nintendo games have the game on cart/disc. Updates fix minor bugs that aren’t game breaking.

(@Goldnfoxx) reported
@Norton_Anti @Ben_Faulstick @NintendoAmerica I play my Wii-U absolutely any time I want to play any Zelda, Mario, or Metroid game that isn't native to Switch. Which was way cheaper than touching Nintendo's Switch online service, which I will never do, and I imagine that's closer to the reason of the discontinuation.

@Cedrik1699 I wanted it, saw the site crash day one, and said “yeah nah I’m good” Hey, it’s not all bad, at least now you know to never buy special/limited editions from Nintendo online ever again, because you and I both know this won’t be the last screw up they do

@AlexMinNZ @Razorwing_ @heroichollywood See here's my problem with your statement. I'm a gamer too. Early 30's. I've played **** looking Nintendo games that are more fun than stuff out now. Give me a good story and good game play I don't give a **** what it looks like. Same with movies.

it's so nintendo of them to be done with the game, letting broken characters like steve and kazuya be steve and kazuya but then someone finds some obscure tech that doesn't really affect anything and BOOM, new patch

@NintendoUK massive disappointment from Nintendo regarding their shopping website today. Finally back up and it's especially broken. 45 minutes trying to order an item due to errors, only to find by the time I could actually order it, it was sold out! Raging!

2/2 @NintendoAmerica One pair was repaired correctly, the other came back broken in the other direction (left joy con drift became right joy con drift). I sent that one back in for repair weeks ago - it just came back and won't even connect to the damn console.

@PownicMania5000 Hot take: Emperor Lemon made things worse. Sure he called out Nintendo but he did a better job dividing the fan base than fixing it which he already claimed was the problem
