    @Trogistreed420 @breathofthemild Don't lol. There are some major problems with how Nintendo implemented this. The control mapping being a huge thing to me. Now, take what I am saying with a grain of salt since I didn't buy it, but just from seeing reviews, it is not looking good.

  • Zero89260680 Zero (@Zero89260680) reported

    @NintendoAmerica THE ONLY GAME I was looking forward to. Since you did this nintendo, I EXPECT you to fix those frame drops, improve the art style AND make a good online experience.

  • The_Veryde Veryde (@The_Veryde) reported

    Imagine offering an update to a 20 € per year online service that costs 30 € more and only includes to emulators that don't even work as well as a lot of the free stuff. This is such a typical Nintendo move and I'm glad I gave it a pass this time around. #NintendoSwitchOnline

  • DaisukeDoi7 ~DaisukeDoi~ *Currently Digivolving* (@DaisukeDoi7) reported

    @engooneer @TheMushrunt You do understand that this is a general systematic issue in the gaming space, and that those people just were found out by more people. There's communities out there with way more predators, but that gets silenced because "Oh Nintendo has it worse"

  • ZenigameDirect Nils | Zeni (@ZenigameDirect) reported

    Okay, so the Nintendo 64 games on NSO look bad, have input latency, lag like hell online and are overpriced? Great going there, Nintendo. And I can't say I'm surprised.

  • errrcc Eric (@errrcc) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Fix Nintendo online. Voice chat and messaging. And Nintendo online is so laggy. Fix online before adding more. Also Nintendo expansion is half assed. No button mapping, no improved graphics, input delay, and etc. #NintendoSwitchOnline #Fixnintendoonline

  • DerekNeves77 Derek Neves (@DerekNeves77) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Those controllers would be nice! …if the N64 games were emulated correctly and the service weren’t so bad. You guys REALLY need to consider making the classic games standalone purchases again for the next system. As is, you got complacent, and now, it’s time to pay the piper.

  • ConnorStMich CONNOR (@ConnorStMich) reported

    @DynamoSuperX Well tbf if Nintendo had actual good servers and not P2P, it wouldn’t be lagging. Nintendo is still at fault to an extent

  • DevinShadowV Devin Vanassche (@DevinShadowV) reported

    @IGN @Nintendo @NintendoAmerica Don't get me wrong I love Nintendo for a long time. But there actions or lack there of listening to consumers on what we really need. Microsoft and Sony gave you the blueprints for a decent internet infrastructure and you did none of it we just want a good service.

  • Gravepaladin Grave 👹 Kamen VTuber (@Gravepaladin) reported

    So wait... N64 on switch has 1) graphic issues And 2)input delay? Nintendo can't even make a good emulator for their own systems lol

  • DaisukeDoi7 ~DaisukeDoi~ *Currently Digivolving* (@DaisukeDoi7) reported

    @engooneer @TheMushrunt Not saying that the Nintendo ones aren't bad, that's terrible, but to just say it's just a Nintendo community issue makes more people get away with it

  • pkintheuniverse PumpKinhead in the Universe (@pkintheuniverse) reported

    A part of me wanted to be proven wrong about the NSO+. I was hoping this would have glowing reviews and people were going to say the emulation was excellent and it did what it was intended to do. That is unfortunate. I hope Nintendo updates it at some point to fix the problems.

  • Psilocervine The Werner Herzog of Furry ******** Games (Fauna!) (@Psilocervine) reported

    ALSO I see a lot of people posting images of the wii version of ocarina being stretched to hell and that's really less of an emulation issue and more of a "nintendo really didn't account for widescreen televisions being a thing" which kinda mirrors a lot of their views

  • SuperHooktailJr 🎃👻💀Hooktail Jr💀👻🎃 (@SuperHooktailJr) reported from San Bernardino, California

    @NintendoAmerica Fix the NSO expansion price.

  • Padgettville Padgett (@Padgettville) reported

    @HappyNappy93 @VogurtTV Just a lack luster proprietary emulator from Nintendo is what I hear! it’s doesn’t handle alpha shading, fog, or frame buffer techniques properly! Kinda sad I hope they fix cause switch has more than enough power to properly run 64 games! community emulators are much better atm!
