    @DiegoEs2002 @NintendoAmerica @Pokemon nah, the game if funny the way it is, they don't need to fix it.

  • derpy_grey 🍜 Grey 🍜 (@derpy_grey) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Ngl this is my favorite game ever- im so gonna fix my SNES and buy it to play it properly 💪 (Still can't manage to beat Mr. Dream tho 🤔)

  • MAGNEDETH MAGNEDETH (@MAGNEDETH) reported

    I'm actually pretty surprised that Nintendo or Game Freak haven't posted some kind of acknowledgment to the issues plaguing Scarlet and Violet. Pretty much any other developer encountering this much scrutiny would have definitely had some kind of public statement.

    @FallGuysOwl i noticed, the shadows on nintendo switch sometimes get corrupted, like the lighting of some other things, also, graphical errors in the jinxed minigame particles

  • dietintenfisch Eva (@dietintenfisch) reported

    @KeionJ05 I’m a software engineer and I build infrastructure for distributed systems. Nintendos net code and the fact that the game uses p2p hosting is 100% the issue. Even if somebody has a slower connection, or is dropping some packets, Nintendo’s net code should be able to compensate

  • EnbyFish420 Lucy (@EnbyFish420) reported

    When is Nintendo or Pokémon official going to at least announce that a patch is being worked on to fix the issues? Why did we need to find a Japanese tweet to see ANY staff recognize how poorly put together some parts of the game are? I love S/V this isn’t a hate tweet but CMON

  • pl_sma_ plasma (@pl_sma_) reported

    @evegurumi @MAGNEDETH PoMa has really good communication, but it's from the people at DeNA not Nintendo or TPC. I don't think it's too long before Nintendo/GF/TPC HAVE to acknowledge the issues.

  • Shadowth117 Shadowth117 (@Shadowth117) reported

    @NintendoAmerica You know, I heard the game is fun despite its issues. But said issues drag it down to an embarassing degree. It really makes me think differently on your usually so polished 1st party line up so I won't be buying it and honestly I'll be more wary of buying future Nintendo titles.

  • ClockworthClone Mitchell Monroe (@ClockworthClone) reported

    @johniibo Nintendo is even offering refunds. I will say that capping the game at 720P seems to help. So handheld people or people that alter their Switch settings may be having less issues.

  • JDsBunker Jackie's super rad doomsday bunker (@JDsBunker) reported

    Dont fix it nintendo, Pokémon red and blue being the broken af helped me get gud at computers

  • 48bigdiesel48 Diesel Marcus (@48bigdiesel48) reported

    @kepthallowed @asgardianson @NintendoAmerica Ses to be tied to a memory leak issue, there is no way someone ran this game and said go. The stutter is even in scripted cutscenes sometimes (the ones with free roaming npcs or classroom occupants). It is an extremely fun world to explore regardless.

  • kipppo1 kipppo (@kipppo1) reported

    @yellowm0use I’m my opinion, it’s one of the most glitchiest and unpolished main Nintendo games on the switch, lots of bugs, lots of performance issues, seems to be a memory leak and need to restart the game frequently to fix it, but in all honesty it’s the most fun I’ve had in a Pokémon game

  • xGodzilla2012x Lorenzo Gamboa (@xGodzilla2012x) reported

    @FallGuysGame not working on Nintendo switch ?

  • Fluntima Fluntima (@Fluntima) reported

    @FallGuysOwl Are you guys going to fix the issue where you load into a game on nintendo switch and your skin does not appear???

  • 4Sel4 Sel (@4Sel4) reported

    @Kjbt70 @SmallAnt Yeah what a ****** reason right ? The game is just lagging constantly .. shame on people for not giving a chance. Just be sure not to blame GF / Nintendo they haven’t done anything wrong except launching a fun game. Blame players.
