  • x_scytherage_x scytherage (@x_scytherage_x) reported

    LOL with Nintendo and online service from 2005, I dunno, man, you guys are asking for too much lmao #masterchief4Smash

  • SezzaF1 SarahShoebs (@SezzaF1) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    I don’t think I’ve ever come across a company that is so unwilling to help and do the right thing as @NintendoUK. Their customer service falls way below standard. I will be complaining to various outlets, including the media.

  • metroid_map Metroid Minecraft Map (@metroid_map) reported

    @zfg111 It's the new Sword & Shield tree. A minor issue being blown out of proportion. Other than the colors being a little too saturated, OoT on the Switch is fine. No input lag. The rest of the games are fine too. People are just over eager to complain about Nintendo, as usual.

  • NintendoFanGirl NintendoFanGirl 🎮 (@NintendoFanGirl) reported

    @GoodReads2014 @AndreSegers The problem you have is with the online functionality within games, not Nintendo’s servers. Some are designed so players will match each others’ gameplay experience (oversimplification) rather than letting one player break the game. It works out better in some games than others.

  • RugbyRefRuss Russ Makinson (@RugbyRefRuss) reported

    @NintendoUK I don't know whether when I originally bought the switch, I created a new email account which I have now forgotten, or whether someone has hacked my player account and changed the associated email address. Either way, I can't sign in as I don't know the password.

  • CoderReal CoderReal (@CoderReal) reported

    @NathanielBandy1 Warning! The following video is NOT over exaggerated, Most opinions shared are accurate to my actual thoughts and feeling, This online service is an overpriced piece of **** that doesn’t work properly, Thanks Nintendo, very cool.

  • Dungeon00X Travis Wheeler (@Dungeon00X) reported

    @CoreyTheGamer01 @CDUB901 @Kotaku Nintendo's war on Emulation is the single greatest threat to game preservation. I'm not paying for the Switch Online service for a drip-feed of games instead of 90% of the library.

  • Chimera_AFX Dan Rossner (@Chimera_AFX) reported

    @JAGZmoneyy some douchebags are @-ing nintendo going HEY LOOK MODDED GAME HAHA as if that fixes the problem lol But whoever's running this event 100% needs to check themselves. PM isn't "banned melee" cuz we let in banned players. ****** ay.

  • DeltaGold6 DeltaGold! (@DeltaGold6) reported

    @Magikarp_God @NintendoAmerica I do actually! Got a problem?

  • _Zero_Virus Peter’s Epilogue (Timelost) (@_Zero_Virus) reported

    Nothing like @NintendoAmerica giving me issues with my Google Authenticator app and not allowing me to log in. So ridiculous 🤬

  • jack_Flint Jack Flint (@jack_Flint) reported

    @DarkViperAU I had that issue once. You need to charge it via dock, also takes a while before it starts actually charging. Happens when the battery is really empty. Also avoid using any chargers that arent Nintendo, they WILL break the switch
