SPLATOON

Won’t let me sign in

I put in the right password and it said it’s incorrect so I changed it and it said it’s still incorrect

I’m not mad, just disappointed

The app is good at what it does do (adding friends while away from your console, downloading screenshots and videos you uploaded, and the various apps related to the games that are supported). The problem is that it is missing so many features that it could or should have.

There is no reason why I shouldn’t be able to access the switch online shop from this app or at least browse titles that are available or upcoming. I should be able to make icons from the elements I already collected on my account. The photo and video feature is also limited to just downloading and sharing with no real way to compile or edit clips.

Done with Nintendo

Go away Nintendo! I don’t care where you guys will go in the future. I will not kneel in front of you guys. Someone would be crazy to give me switch 2 as a gift.

You guys are the only platform who reject trophies/achievements. I’ve witnessed control stick drift not just in Switch, but also N64 and GameCube. Those 2 old consoles didn’t age well. I hated calibrating Wii Remotes too.

Several 3rd parties games and digital versions require a huge chunk of space on Switch. I can no longer afford to be hybrid gamer anymore.

Features

I would like to see the Nintendo Store app be integrated with this app just like the PlayStation app. Can we also get the ability to change our avatar within the app?

screenshot and clips feature unfortunately doesnt work for me and also it seems to not have the correct current stats for me on splatoon even if i refresh or restart the app or maybe its just slow to update sometimes but i like the splatnet gear

Fix it

Fix your app it continually locks up. You have to restart my phone to get it to work again.

Bad people do bad things

It’s a me. Archbox. The dragons don’t have enough of your money. Just enough to pay the lawyers to keep everyone else poor. Bad (super rich!) Nintendo. Making poor people poorer.

ABSOLUTELY HORRID DARLING

this app genuinely rarely/barely ever actually works. Expected better from a billion dollar corporation/brand like it’s so frustrating

The map

The breath the wild the maps says that I’m at shrine, but I’m not also the map has not got the locations on it, even though I got all towers

Pretty good

I've been using it for breath of the wild And tears of the kingdom it works really well I would recommend

Guys

Pokemon emerald coming late this pokemon day 2026 will be definitely cool together with ruby and sapphire I’d buy em so I can get them all I want to complete the Pokédex from hoenn and kanto

Nintendo

Awesome support

Sounds great, can’t use it

Splatnet is great!

I only use this app for Splatnet 3, and it’s great! I can order some REALLY good gear I can’t get in the normal shops yet! Also, y’know how the game only shows you the battle stages 6 hours ahead of time? This app shows you the stages A WHOLE DAY ahead of time!!! Also, it helps me keep track of my status in the game in general in case if I forget or need to figure something out! And don’t get me started on the upload feature. It’s freaking NUTS! I can just take something like a screen recording and it’ll automatically upload to the app! Although I do wish that the uploads would happen faster…
