@SachiDragon @SuperMarioT_YT I’m very convinced the issue is that a lot of these Japanese game companies just don’t bother with what goes on in the west. Even Nintendo has an issue with that

@VgDiegazo @IntroSpecktive Yeah, Nintendo fans are really the problem here. They took the smash killer meme seriously, and used it to **** on the game and its players. Makes sense why the devs would want people to stop.

@vicious696 Software wise this seems to be a Xbox specific problem because Nintendo and PlayStation are doing quite well in 2022.

@9Santy1 And rightfully so, I criticized ALL companies, Playstation, Nintendo & Xbox no one is excused from my criticism, I been alittle more lighthearted on Xbox cause I like Xbox, but they recently had issues that yes I will constantly address the situation when it backfires on them

// watch Nintendo have the sequel's title be something like “Blade of the Goddess” and end up having the “spoilery title” Bill Trinen mentioned just be a reference to the Master Sword 'cause it's broken and needs to be reforged //

This is absolutely ridiculous that I have to pay even more money to watch baseball on a different streaming service. What's next? Maybe games only on the Nintendo Switch? Very stupid move, #MLB! #SDvsATL

@MissDeusGeek Xbox is the only brand who ALWAYS gets a pandemic excuse. Do you even realize when you put pen to paper how many exclusives sony and Nintendo have already dropped in the same years compared to Xbox? It’s an internal work culture problem.

Xbox and switch gamers will criticize or express thier feeling about service form MS and Nintendo. PS guys are like... religion. They are all obsessed.

@MissDeusGeek it's weird but the pandemic only seems to affecting Xbox. Nintendo and Sony plus all the major publishers don't seem to have a problem maintaining a decent release schedule. MS owns the most studios and we are in the second year of Xbox being dry.

@nftpasta Best to Read up about the game crash in 1980s when Atari made a heap of Rug games that’s were this story really begins then Nintendo come out and the rest follow we. Metaverse will be definitely on another level @nftpasta 🚀

@GamingWook808 @vicious696 That is true, but they have bought Many Many studios and no single release in the entire year. So there is a problem there. Nintendo and Sony both have Many less studios and dont suffer like this, just look at Nintendo this year

@Adventures_iG @Opuntia33 @QuackQuackDaki Sony and Nintendo are also going through covid, but the problem with first party Xbox games has been a problem for years.

Constantly worried about putting game cards into the nintendo switch cartridge holder because if they come out scratched that means my games will be broken if I continue and I just lost everything I worked up to like I did back in 2019.

@CClutch64 My last friday stream, it was riddled with technical issues (PS4 acting out against my OBS, which I finally sorted out today) plus trying to stream a game that I found out about on a Nintendo Indie world and find out it was heavily copyrighted and had to take down the VOD

why doesn't the nintendo switch have any streaming service apps like it's the perfect console to have all of them on it doesn't make sense

@xCRHW Exploiting= Glitch in game that you use to "Expolit" things. Purple beam, Date time skip. NOT Pokemon from computer to switch. Permission to sell Nintendo stuff. Anyone who does twitch subs and plays Pokemon is doing. You're content of Pokemon is what people are paying for

@_Master__Shake_ The problem is when Nintendo and Sony delay their first party games, they tend to deliver on expectations and some are even declared masterpieces in the medium. When Xbox delays, we still get unfinished games. So it’s just frustrating as an Xbox fan and we want to express it.

@jez7780 @DoWhatYouDo6 0. The problem isn't the delays, it's the lack of other games for up to 16 months. 1. Yes. Give me a try. 2. But Sony and Nintendo still release games during the pandemic. 3. No. 4. But he is paid to mange Xbox well. If he isn't, then what is he getting paid for?

@HaygoodWill That is Xbox's image problem in a nutshell. Nobody is questioning whether Nintendo and Sony will showcase new games coming this year, everybody knows they will. After years of excuses from Xbox, confidence in them delivering games just isn't there, even from their biggest fans.
