@TioGio6 @Saintrow1981 @Popgoes6 So if we stream the games on switch gives less lag compared to playing the game officially on Nintendo switch .. Does streaming games make ur console more compatible ?

Dear @PokemonUnite : When will you fix the bugs, connexion problems and system issues on Nintendo Switch last update? It's a nightmare to try to play any kind of battle on our consoles

@packy34 @jph_anderson Then think about how much trouble converting Nintendo fanboys to the Xbox layout (or vice versa) would be. I'm having a lot of trouble switching between a DS and an Xbox, but not with a PS. The fact that playstation is different (except ×) would only make it *easier* to adopt.

@PokemonUnite @NintendoAmerica The problem has not been completely solved; to be able to enjoy the app it is necessary to constantly restart it or clear the cache, although for the latter the error of not being able to play reoccurs in a game. NINTENDO SWITCH.

Just to buy one of each of these controllers I could ALMOST buy an entirely new #NintendoSwitch, or a Switch Lite+games. This is inexcusable. You've always been anti-consumer (joycons are STILL a problem), what's the deal? #Nintendo @NintendoAmerica @Nintendo

@BarbarianViktar @Gypopothomas @NintendoAmerica i maybe screaming into darkness but i figure if i add to voices of people calling for titles like i mentioned maybe eventually just maybe one side or the other might find it worth it to put those titles on the service

@aykrivwassup @NintendoAmerica Nintendo obviously told sega they had to have at least 1 sonic game on the service so sega obviously chose sonic 2 because it's far more popular than sonic 1, they probably also chose it because of the sonic 2 movie being in production at the time the expansion pack was added

@Stealth40k Whoa, THREE whole games? And one of them is even new to the Switch?! Nintendo is so bad at selling their online service considering all they have to work with it's almost kind of funny.

nintendo's really scrapping the bottom of the barrel on the sega games they're putting on their online service.

@alexthelynx like I get it, the hardware has issues like long load times and bad screen but relative to its size, it had one of the best console libraries of Nintendo games. Its good that a bunch are hitting switch but some were kind of better on Wii u (like pikmin 3, excluding extra content)

@qqnosh @NintendoAmerica Still you would own the games on the collection forever and pay less than this service. There's no safe solution tho, unless you just emulate.

Games With Dad (@BarbarianViktar) reported
@maximoXjd @Gypopothomas @NintendoAmerica They released those collections first, got their initial money, and then put their games on Nintendo's subscription service. There is a difference.
