    @Agent_SPL @realTailss Yeah I watch Shockwavee stream, he’s insanely good and fun to watch. It’s probably not intentional, and should be considered Nintendo’s fault for providing **** service that none of the costs go to improving. On the other hand it does give someone advantage in a tourney, right?

  • ZoePatrick19 Zoe Patrick (@ZoePatrick19) reported

    @NintendoUK my switch lite keeps getting a white screen and restarting itself...is this a known issue?I've only had it since july

  • Kennedy820C Michael Scott (@Kennedy820C) reported

    @WalnutBr3ad Sakurai and the team behind ultimate aren't the problem, the higher ups at nintendo are. Recently another competitive tournament was cancelled for no reason.

  • Clarkeyb0y KennyL0ggins (@Clarkeyb0y) reported

    @ThatBirbyBoye @JonComms There is likely a huge rights issue between square and Nintendo as these games are gold cash cows for SE

  • NintendoShame Nintendo Shame (@NintendoShame) reported

    It's been 5 days since the last game was added to the Nintendo Switch Online service

  • Gian984 Adithya Jain (@Gian984) reported

    @6Paths5Rings @StormYorha @alexdnz 2-3 year lag is not needed for 90% of the good games out their. Sony first parties, Nintendo first parties, FromSoft games etc etc.

    Also maybe Nintendo just made a little bit of a mistake. I know at least that they won't do such a thing without a reason & I think that I know what the reason is. The reason why Nintendo did cancel the tournament is because of copyright issues. [Tweet goes on under this one]

    Imagine if Nintendo spent as much money on improving their online service as they do on their lawyers.

    @PushDustIn @SuperBentendo Got to give it to Pachter this time. Had Nintendo not cut the price, that could've been a real possibility, even though the Vita pricing for the games was an issue for people, accustomed to reduced pricing. And he got the smartphone thing in full.

  • HonedgeSpl Honedge_Spl (@HonedgeSpl) reported

    @Agent_SPL @Dark_Kugel It’s not that nobody acknowledges them it’s that when fighting them it’s usually a bad experience and sometimes it can cost entire games due to a lag spike, they can’t control it which is unfortunate and people just have to learn that Nintendo online is *** lol

  • ItsMePrinceInf1 CHAS1AN (@ItsMePrinceInf1) reported

    @FortniteGame @DonaldMustard PLEASEEE FIX THE WHITE SCREEN BUG FOR NINTENDO PLAYERS (or who is currently experiencing it) ITS REALLY BAD AND WE WANT YOU TO FIX IT!

  • rldcnx _rld / martin (@rldcnx) reported

    @MaxMyrus @NeedforSpeed Found it. A PG managed Nintendo account doesn’t get the EA account linking process presented. Even though, as a guardian, I permitted access to online service explicitly for this game. Makes it impossible to connect to autolog. This was not clear in game or by support pages.

  • TriforceZard TriZard @ NEO TWEWY (@TriforceZard) reported

    Today I learned Piston Hondo reads Sailor Moon manga and it got Nintendo in trouble.

  • kylerhysmarsh Kyle Rhys Marsh (@kylerhysmarsh) reported

    My JoyCons are becoming really unresponsive and it’s really negatively affecting my gameplay experience. @Nintendo, stop pretending this isn’t an issue and do something about it.

  • OwenRMeadows Owen Rhys Meadows ❄️ (@OwenRMeadows) reported

    @GAMEHelps Monday I ordered 2 Nintendo Switch’s, which I had a confirmation email for. Although after that I’ve heard nothing else regarding the status of my order. This is worrying me as the order was intended to be given as a gift for Christmas. No answer by email & customer service. Help
