@NintendoAmerica I enjoy the fire emblem series but I am going to skip this title because I’m not a big fan of warrior games especially the switch ones experience severe lag making it pretty difficult to play at times

@Vahn16 @Shannon_Liao I reached out Hank in accounts payable at Nintendo and he said “he couldn’t comment on that issue on behalf of the company” and you write a piece saying “most said nothing at all.” Solid “journalism.”

@NinEverything Nintendo = better games. Wish people would stop complaining about graphics. I kinda get the more power as it did have trouble running some games including Xenoblade Chronicles 2

@Bazel_7 @Bruhnsy @klobrille We have no idea how long it'll be delayed but that's not the biggest issue, it's the optics of continued studio mismanagement for Xbox. Sony and Nintendo don't have this issue.

@klobrille I Get the delay part but with same Crunch or Covid issues effecting both Ps & Nintendo and they still churning out some games...I'm not developer but I will say there is Big Hole in Xbox management....You can't even manage studios you have right now leave alone AB deal.

@Roseliazaa @XboxP3 games, mostly, Nintendo's problem is the HW is completely underpowered and the games run at *exaggeration * 5 frames a second with dips below. The fact it's been this long would've sunk other companies. Xbox needs to get serious.

@NintendoAmerica @SquareEnix nothing better than buying a $60 game so you can have the DLC then you beat the game and go and play the DLC to have it glitch on you ! I figured the code out ive watched people do it on @YouTube but when i try it the case wont open not letting me

@KryThePup Nintendo's biggest problem with their games is crap online services.

@NinEverything Since systems are ginormous now adays I don’t see a problem with making a new system that has total backwards comparability. Just call it “The Nintendo”

@Steve_Davis_UK @OfficialXboxU No I don’t want a buggy game. But as a publisher that’s been in the business for 20 years and had this same problem last gen I expect this issue to be fixed by now. Sony and Nintendo have been cranking out games constantly that shows this is a Microsoft problem.

Elaborating my comment on Nintendo Online, this is the pricing for 12 months for Nintendo Online respectively including Expansion Pack: NA: $19.99 / $49.99 EU: €19.99 / €39.99 Meaning base service is cheaper in NA, while expansion pack is cheaper in EU.

@Yanksfan_03 Absolutely! This damage control and making excuses is outright pathetic. Nintendo, Sony and most other companies don't have this issue.

@FrostGlader @JuanitoMoldon @NintendoAmerica it can't do sharp, koopa city works with the engine because 1. it's borrowed from 7 which model was wider than 8, 2. you can't fall off so the curve not being sharp enough isn't an issue when there's an invisible wall which saves you. the auto tricks on ramps are severely shorter

@ChalsAbuah @klobrille I am relaxed lol this is gamer me talking not grown up me with real life problems And yes the Pandemic is real but Sony and Nintendo fans are still getting their games, thats a tired whataboutism that needs to stop They created this problem when they dated the games 🤷🏾

@GoNintendoTweet Ridiculous survey. They know what they want to make, more Persona, just want reassurances. How about make a new Snowbord Kids or remake or at the least, allow Nintendo to add the original to the Switch Online service... best games that the new generations deserve to enjoy!

@SmugKaiSupreme @NintendoAmerica Then why are you here wasting your time complaining about potential localization and censorship problems instead of learning japanese and importing the game. It's not that hard, I assure you.

@emobandito666 Yep, I did check with Stitch which have thousands of products of on etsy 🥰, I've had issues before with Nintendo & Fortnite :( Disney seem to say its okay as long as its not original artwork being used which its not! :) Nintendo and Fortnite however you can't use those words.

@marlisjun Beg to differ... Poor execution of fan service. Streaming is NOT backwards compatibility. Sony is taking a page from Nintendo's book and it's getting old.

@HarryGoLocky @BERSERKER_THiiS @DaveWNewman My point is: The whole industry got a Problem. All AAA-Titles are in trouble since 2 years. Most of em don't release in a State they should even if they come out... But we still get a ton of good games. Its not like a MS, Sony, Nintendo problem. It could be far worse.

@JFonzerrelli @Punkidish At the end of the day they should have planned better. Sony or Nintendo hasn’t had this problem. Nintendo will finish a game and just not release it till the right time. I agree no first party for pretty much an entire year 2 years into the gen is embarrassing

I solemnly regret buying Nintendo Switch Sports. Don't get me wrong. It's a good game and all. But the fact that you HAVE TO PLAY ONLINE TO UNLOCK ANYTHING and the online (at least from what I played today) was utter trash and it dc'd me a LOT. Not to mention the lag.n

In 2013, the entirety of the Japanese industry threw their weight into trying to make the ps4 a thing. On Switch, Nintendo had to pay for most major title. DQXIS, DQ Builders, the 2D HD games, NMH3, SMTV, etc. It still misses out on day 1 obvious titles like One Piece & Crash
