    @NintendoAmerica @USJ_Official You gotta be kidding me. When we want you to address the problems happening with your fanbase and for new game announcements, instead we get a Direct for the amusement park that is currently only in Japan, and during a bloody pandemic. Yeah f*** this company.

    @Dr_Scaphandre @NintendoAmerica @USJ_Official What problems with the fanbase?

  • huttaburger hut (commisions closed) (@huttaburger) reported

    @sailorisa yea. nintendo handled the wii u very poorly but I never was frustrated with the console itself. switch just annoys me. fixed no issues I had w wii u and without retro games to actually buy I hardly have a reason to just casually play it, it just feels like less overall

  • PowerJusho_KH13 Power Jusho (@PowerJusho_KH13) reported

    @Krolliox @GrapeAxel what licensing problems? it's only disney they gotta ask (and probably Nomura out of respect) and disney & nintendo has history together dating back to the NES/SNES days

  • KatharineBerry Katharine Berry (@KatharineBerry) reported

    @BenTheElder @AlisterBrenton Sony nominally tested and certified this game before it went on sale, so they have something of a black eye here too. Nintendo originally introduced the certification concept way back when due to a huge flood of broken games poisoning the market…

  • duccstar ducc (@duccstar) reported

    It's impossible for me to play an hour of online Smash through @NintendoAmerica 's horrible online service without feeling absolutely cheated by lag. Smash is dead without either a netcode overhaul or widespread use of Nintendo Switch emulators.

    @CJFerguson1111 @jessesingal I remember Turok 2 for the Nintendo 64 having the same problems as well. I knew guys who worked on that game at Iguana- it was an Austin studio before Acclaim bought it. It flopped big time.

  • ItsRocket14 Rocket14 (@ItsRocket14) reported

    @Snorth93 You asking too much for a 20$ service tho, Xbox and ps4 cost 60$ and give you like 2-4 games a month. Would be best just to ask for virtual console, cause Nintendo can provide more unless they up the price.

  • bubba1115_ bubba1115☃️ (@bubba1115_) reported

    @NintendoAmerica @USJ_Official Can anyone help me with this? Every day I want to play my switch, and every day it connects to the internet, but then when I go to do something online, it says no internet, until I reset my router and modem. Nothing else in the house has a problem, it’s just the switch

  • R_Krillindude raoul (@R_Krillindude) reported

    Why did they make sephiroth so light? I hate Nintendo I can’t even play him cuz the online has 14+ frames of delay fix ur **** @NintendoAmerica

  • TaraKaos ⚧🔥☭Tara Kaos☭🔥⚧ (@TaraKaos) reported

    And BTW I'm a former QA tester. I've done cert testing for Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony. I would of never let these issue pass, and I'll bet there QA didn't either. WAYYY too often these companies let these games slide. There's a reason why so many games have day 1 patches...

  • monkeyskullking Monkey Skull (@monkeyskullking) reported

    @IGN Please please fix the joycons @NintendoAmerica #FreeMelee

  • dylanjd1998 Dylan Doering (@dylanjd1998) reported

    @samcambolt0270 @gameranx While it is annoying, him admitting fault is something that can definitely be used in court and make Nintendo lose. But yeah, it's very annoying that Nintendo has refused to address any hardware problems about the Switch other than battery and pirating.

  • MightyWilltor Not Just Any Willtor (@MightyWilltor) reported

    @LukisYT You may already know this, but a proliferation of broken and crappy games crashed the video game industry in the early 1980's. Nintendo brought it back by regulating the number of games publishers were allowed to release for the NES.

    @UrDailyYEET1 @NintendoAmerica No problem with enjoying it, I just never really got why
