Re: Reminder: Here Are the Times for the Splatoon 2 Splatfest World Premiere

How can anyone say the Nintendo Switch was ready for launch? I just went to my Nintendo account and they still don't have any rewards for all the points from games that I've bought! Their online services were delayed from what they promised. There is no virtual console. I don't know what's going on at Nintendo but it's nothing good.

@NEStalgia Its actually a light grey, like they changed the grey color. I called Nintendo again, they said they are sorry and to send all the stuff back. Nintendo is sending me 2 new matching grey joy cons and wrist straps. I hope all goes well this time around!

It just keeps getting better! Apparently Nintendo has different color wrist straps now. And of course Nintendo sent me the wrong color. So I do have a new joy con (with stripped screws), but it has a miss match wrist strap. I have the original color grey from launch. I really wish I could send you pictures of all this. lol

I just got my package today with my new joint cons. You'll never believe what happened, the right joy con is new in box with a wrist strap. The left joy con was in a hodgepodge plastic package with no wrist strap and stripped out screws on the back. Because I paid $112 for these controllers I called Nintendo, they told me it was only cosmetic and to go ahead and use it. That doesn't help the fact that I'm still missing a wrist strap for the left joy con. They are going to supposedly send me out a new wrist strap which will probably take two weeks because of Fourth of July holiday. Take it from me Nintendo's customer service is pathetic!

@tebunker
Well the charge has gone though on my credit card for the joy cons ($112) and it has been over a week. I still have not received them! You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. So before you chime in and and accuse me of not telling the whole story you need to understand that your experience with Nintendo may be, and is different than mine.

My call was escalated to the supervisor position. I did not buy an extra set of joy-cons, I still have to send the defective ones back. Trust me when I tell you Nintendo's customer service is horrible. I can't tell you how many times I had to call them back. I spent at least an hour on the phone with them troubleshooting as they tried to blame the joy con issue on interference in the home. This is not the same Nintendo from the late 1980s early 90s.

I do now. Nintendo would not sell me a set together. I had to purchase the left and right separately $49.99 each. Why should I have to pay anything? These Joy-Con are defective! Nintendos customer service is terrible!!!

This doesn't help anyone unless everyone has a copy of Arms. In other words, if two people in the same household own a switch and would like to play each other, that family must own two copies of arms. I called Nintendo 1-800-255-3700 and told them that they're advertising is very misleading. I also expressed my displeasure that there's no web browser, Virtual Consol, YouTube or Netflix apps. I also had to argue with them for an extended amount of time about my Joy Cons disconnecting. I have owned my Switch since lunch. They charged me $112 for a new set of Joy Cons.

Absolutely I'm ready to buy and play some of those old games again. They are what made Nintendo. Isn't it funny that every device does have those apps except for the switch, that alone should tell you something! Shall we get into the true cost of owning a Switch? How much does it cost to upgrade your switch to 500 GB of memory the standard for other consuls? How much does it cost to have a screen protector applied so that the Switch doesn't scratch itself? How much does it cost to buy some sort of device to be able to speak to someone online (headset)? Standard with other consuls. How much does an extra controller cost? Oh, is that more then the other two systems? I'm still waiting on Nintendo to figure out a way for us to be able to save our games, save data. Now, should we talk about third-party support for AAA titles? Oh but you say the switch is so powerful! Apparently not. EA sports didn't think so. They had to dumb down FIFA. LOL.

I have a Switch, and I have plenty of negative things to say about it. There is no virtual Consol, no YouTube, no Netflix, most of the games in the E shop are from the Neo Geo, not Nintendo! And for crying out loud where is my web browser? The Nintendo Switch is definitely a step backwards from the Wii-U. Nintendo was definitely not ready to launch!
