“No order editing?”

Elizabeth R.
12/27/23

You cannot edit your order while it is processing. I was told to wait until it is delivered and then return it or place a whole new second order. I went through customer service chat, text and calling spending almost 2 hours dealing with this just to get this answer. Unbelievable. Definitely over Nintendo at this point.

Dear Nintendo professionals, good afternoon.
I am still unable to use any credit card on my Nintendo account. I have opened accounts in other countries where I have residency and bank accounts with cards issued by those countries, and in none of them am I allowed to make purchases.
I have bank accounts and Nintendo accounts in the USA, Brazil, and Argentina, and in none of them can I use any credit card. I have tried dozens of cards, cancelled and requested new cards from banks, tried single-use or fixed-use virtual cards, tried physical cards, and so far, nothing.
Not only have you not solved the problem, but you also do not provide any explanation. You don't tell me if something might be wrong, you don't tell me if you simply don't allow me to use them because you don't like me, you don't tell me if it's prejudice against me, you don't tell me anything. You don't provide any decent contact channel, you don't care about customers who want to spend money with your company.
Do you realize this? I am trying to spend my money on your company and you won't let me do that. What a complete disregard, it's lamentable. I await any explanation that is minimally plausible.
I can only conclude that Nintendo has some prejudiced reason for preventing me from spending my money on their company, because it is not possible that a world leader in games and technology cannot simply provide a coherent explanation of why they don't allow me to use any credit card.
This is a consumer disregard.
I have provided the console serial number, all the details of the dozens of cards I tried to use, account information, everything, and incredibly these incredible professionals responded to me as follows: "we cannot help you with this issue. We cannot share any more information,"... Can't you even say why you won't let me buy from your company? Is that what you're going to tell me? It must be something prejudiced against me, it can only be.

Don't waste your money on Nintendo, they don't want us to spend our money on their company

I would like to be able to use my credit cards on the Nintendo eShop and spend my money on Nintendo, but they don't allow me to do that

They are weird because I identify as a worm but there is no worm character so I am mad. Rawr rawr Zelda is also weird because I also identify as a skibidi ohio sigma and there is no skibidi ohio sigma character that's why I love YouTube shorts because they include skibidi ohio sigmas unlike you guys at Nintendo.

I love Nintendo and the games they make! They create quality products that while some of mine have been messed up within a year or two they have all stayed pretty good. Most of the controllers they make i love but the price is always high, other than that you should get yourself the latest console, i love it!

Alright i guess but it could be better. Not to mention this is the same company that made Pokemon so this is just painful to see them getting these many bad reviews.

Tip for consumers:
Just go to gamestop to buy games. Their stores are better.

One thing I appreciate about Nintendo. They have a real loyalty program, that they have stuck behind over a decade. You can actually get free stuff from them, by participating in challenges or buying new products.

Once you have paid, if there is an issue, simply consider it money lost. Steer away from eshop "gift cards". There is an amazingly quick "support" response time - assuming it is in place just so that you can pay faster. Love Nintendo but the online payment system is designed to very quickly take your money and leave you helpless if there is an issue.

If there is any slight issue consider your money lost

This company doesn't let people upload their music online without getting copyrighted. They made a new game called Nintendo Switch Sports but they one time released a thing for Switch Sports that didn't work at all. If it doesn't work then what's the point of releasing it?

Nintendo has always had the best games. Such as Mario, the legend of Zelda, animal crossing. My point is that Nintendo has all the best games.

This company doesn't even let us upload their soundtracks. They don't care if the soundtrack is from one of their old games that they don't even make money from anymore. They don't care if it's audio from games such as" Yoshi's Island, Banjo Kazooie, ECT. Nintendo is using Cartridges for their Nintendo Switch even though we have better technology. Nintendo doesn't care about the Donkey Kong series even though that Donkey Kong was one of their first ever games [along with Game & Watch].

A classic which I will never forget - Nintendo. Their navigation is really easy and their products have a huge nostalgia in them. The variety of games leaves me happy as I can find what I am looking for.

Nintendo made a huge mistake on putting the Xenoblade 3 special edition on their website only. The problem is that they never put any kind of effort into their website when there's traffic. Oh what's that? You clicked on the pre-purchase button, wait, you get the limited 1 error? So after a few hours, you're finally able to get it on cart. Alright cool. Then you proceed to check out, wait, it's not on the cart? But it shows that something is in the cart, okay, let me refresh. That is a big mistake! Now you're stuck on the virtual waiting line for hours to just see if it's on the cart. Hours passed and Nintendo avoids to update what is happening in the website. This is pain. So much pain.

Tip for consumers:
Be numb. Very numb.

Can end up using something if the website can't process anything.

Had to send our Switch OLED back twice with a joycon rail issue. The second time they had it for over 3 weeks and then told us there was water damage and they wanted £190 to repair it. The Switch had never been out of the house!

For the past month customer support has been giving me the run around about my own account. Just one big, massive headache after the other with lies and no answers. Than when I finally get an answer, it turns out they were the reason why I was locked out to begin with. Locking me out of my own account just because my computer crashed at a payment screen... really? Couldn't they have just told me this when I first called in instead of wasting hours of my life I will never be able to get back?

I have no clue how many times I've purchased the same game but for the current gaming plat form?
I have no clue how many times I've played the same repetitious characters over and over again?
I have no clue how many times I've beat the same story line but on a different plat form?

I have been a fan of Nintendo characters all my life and I'm beginning to realize in my late 30's early 40's I've been repetitiously playing the same games over and over again. They might release 1-3 classic games for each system but it doesn't go much further than that.

I enjoy Zelda games but the Nintendo switch 3d version is a child's joke. The hard dungeons have been replaced with preschool games and the game was wasted money. People like it because hey it's a Zelda game but it severely lacks story line and you're getting ko'd every damn time you turn a corner because your weapon breaks after 5-7 hits. I gave up on it after a month of playing due to severe frustration of being ko'd every time I turn a corner. I'm a strong gamer and I'm surprised how easy it is to get killed on this damn Zelda game.

First of all I love Nintendo games but I recently realized with the last consul purchase: I've been playing the same games for the last 30 years. The only thing that's changed are the graphics getting updated to better suit technology. Once in a rare while they might create a unique story line. However when you go to analyze it there's nothing original about it. They tend to take 2-6 stories and mesh different aspects from them together and bingo you got a new'sih story that most people are oblivious to.

The only thing I don't like about Nintendo is about every five years you have to purchase a new consul and rebuy all the games again. There's only like one Nintendo console that can back play older games. This gets expensive.

As they update their consuls I noticed it's getting hard to change little things about them. On Nintendo consoles you use to be able to easily swap out the battery and sdhc data card. Now they have it all locked up and if you remove the back to swap it out with a higher data card, it voids the warranty. When you go to purchase the hand held consuls now the charger cord is not included. I literally had to go back to the store and purchase a charger cord to be able to play the most recent N3DS consul. No it is not included in the box charger cord sold separately.

Sorry Nintnedo but I'm done with you. I use to prefer you over Sony games but that's all changed now.

The system has games for all ages making it a great family system. With the ability to have 4 plus players on some of the games. One of the things I really enjoy is the fitness games that allow multiple players. The kids get their exercise and we all have a lot of fun at the same time. I think this system really does offer a whole family entertainment package. I cannot wait to see what they do next with all the VR and AI technology that is starting to arise.
