@DestinLegarie more of the same topics, and again since "Sony has outlined the same desire." why don't you talk about Nintendo bringing their game or service to other platforms? I'm sure their fans will react to that change the same way and the same Xbox fans responded to MS goin to PC changes

@RukaDragon I can't disagree they YouTube on consoles is mediocre, but I have a PS4 with YouTube on it, as well as one built into my TV, and neither ever had these kinds of issues in the several years I've owned them I've got as good a reason to point at Nintendo as I do YouTube

@RoseSilicon @PownicMania5000 @skunk_toon There’s also the publicity issue. The Wii U was seen as a failure by gamers, the general public, and even the gaming industry. Nintendo needed to create a new image and show themselves as a success again, which they definitely did with the Switch.

@128_Commodore As far as the audience thing goes, I'd argue it's the opposite problem? Nintendo titles have a huge audience, it's just a super saturated category. Every LP out there likely has at least 4 or 5 others that people can watch. The tricky part is getting people's attention on yours

@vicious696 @Dealer_Gaming Yep, just look at Halo Infinite or Forza Horizon, Xbox clearly cutting development budgets in order to fit their games in a subscription Service. So far Gamepass is lackluster and hurting the gaming industry,thank God we have PlayStation & Nintendo and their first party games.

@OrdinaryGamers The tears of nintendo fanboys is delicious. They don’t care that nintendo charged a premium for cardboard or haven’t fixed their online service but they care that people are emulating their games when it doesn’t effect the fans?

@SagamiSword_ The biggest issue with 30fps tends to be frame pacing. Nothing is wrong with a locked 30fps. How ever not all Nintendo games are a locked 30fps. That being said it's the same for other stuff and even on PC. I remember playing Bloodborne on PS4 and it just felt bad.

@HEYimHeroic According to a recent statement, Nintendo has officially pushed back the release of 2018’s new Yoshi game from the night of a broken moon to when the cockerel crows thrice at a tar-black sun.

@DanSurasshu @nathbusia @Gladybot muting because nintendo fans who aren’t in the fan game community think they know everything apparently go complain about actual issues like nintendo’s ****** work culture instead of making the 10294747289293th DMCA joke to a game dev just making stuff

@cheezyc64 My sons favorite song! My thing is: If Nintendo were to keep up with XBOX, PlayStation and PC in terms of graphics, would they make more money, the same or less? Would they sell more consoles, the same or less? Has their success crippled growth? If so then am I the problem?

@JohnRDavies4 @NextGenPlayer Because they run significantly better, and you can also play all pre-Switch Nintendo games without buying into their ****** subscription service? Not to mention virtually the entire Steam catalogue being there. There’s absolutely no reason to prefer the Switch

@michellelynn097 @kalina_chung Here's the thing: While there IS an important discussion to be had about the surprising lack of Asian representation from an Asian studio This doesn't actually do anything to dismiss the issue surrounding Nintendo's anti-blackness In fact, on some level it's even more damning-

@ErickADub Yeah, it's sad I mean I thought it was Crash, and some thought it was Dante, but it was Byleth Besides, Sakurai didn't choose the DLC, Nintendo did I mean, I still have hopes for Crash to join Smash Bros 6, but Byleth is Unique Character to be fun to play as

@CannibalSerb @KumatoraPM I think if your afraid to do things that make your game better because your afraid of the backlash, you won’t to fox problems. I personally am thankful for what 3.5 did to pm. I don’t think the game would have survived past Nintendo nonsense, if it stopped there.

Not only is the Nintendo Pro controller WAY better than joycons (feels like playing a real console!) but I also don't have that random disconnect problem I have with the joycons. Bonus

@GrandPastorJ Mostly, I always wanted to try a couple of Multiversus content, but the problem is I have a Mac, and it’s not on the switch either, I don’t have any other consoles unfortunately, I sometimes make Mario Kart content also. So I mostly make Nintendo content tbf

@PolarBair_ON @NUTradeWar Like the only reason I could see it without delving on Nintendo being Nintendo is to ensure maximum crossover between event participants due to limited room and board since there's fewer crossover between Smash and other games but like... That's never been a problem ever.

@CorrectureGames @realdealpoliti @richardtroupe Right on. The thing to remember is that Nintendo had basically no competition in the NES era because no one else was crazy enough to try selling video games after the 1983 crash. They’d still be selling us NES games today if others hadn’t moved into the market they created.

@AidenRS139 I don’t have any doubt or problem with them doing this, but I’d rather they’re next one be either Gameboy Advance or Nintendo GameCube.

@DJK1NG_Gaming @Davitz11 Your taking it too personally, I'd like to see a ton of Nintendo games on other consoles in an ideal world because Nintendo consoles are dated and lagging behind the curve on release, it'll never happen and that's fine but saying you wish you could play them on ps5 is also fine.
