@NintendoAmerica The problem Is you think you need a Hero who agrees with all the bullshit un the world... But If that "hero" agree with what you already know isnt working, then he couldn't be a Real Hero

@vDeadbolt Which I predict they will barely do) and most casual consumers will be quite happy with the quality of games they don’t have to wait ages for that it makes up for the problems that Nintendo does have that effects them. I realise now that I’ve waffled for 12 tweets Mit but 12/?

@GiSWiG @NintendoAmerica it would be cool to make a service and charge a small fee that uses bots to buy stuff for normal people before scalpers

@Rockmann86 The only retro consoles that I pretty much have are a Nintendo 64, a Sega Genesis (I don’t know if it works because I don’t have the AV Cable) and a PlayStation from 1998 (It’s broken sadly)

@RetroOTU I dont agree cause they're missing features and aren't made or licensed by Nintendo. I already went over this and the issues with it. Also, I shouldn't have to by bootleg joy-cons because of design flaws Nintendo hasn't fixed. You obviously don't seem to mind, so you do you.

@IGN Three types of Switch, and Nintendo still doesn’t fix the joycon drift problem. I love them but it’s not a great feeling when your character auto runs into wall 90% of the time.

@primegaming Crash. And his intro video is him on a blowhorn outside Nintendo HQ. But this time, Mario actually steps outside and steps up. A showdown that's been literally decades in the making...

@NintendoAmerica I like how everyone is getting all pissy pants about how Nintendo isn't giving you something that they never said anything about in the first place, this is the exact same thing that they did with the 3ds xl and that was never an issue to anyone. If you don't like it don't buy it

issues with nintendo. of course you don’t have to care about my opinion or even respond to my opinion, but i’m stating it because i feel the need too. nintendo isn’t perfect, but it wouldn’t hurt to change things around for the company. nintendo could definitely do better.

@FreakZoneGames I've further remembered that no, wrists comfortably go both ways, the problem was that at least one of the games that used it (Galaxy 2? Skyward Sword?) insisted you lay the wiimote on your palm instead of gripping it, at which point you can now only tilt one way. wtf nintendo

@DialgaMarine @xMBGx Why make dedicated portable games? Nintendo Switch got rid of that issue. Just downgrade PS4 and PS5 games to play on PSP3, 720p etc. The tech is able to do so as Steamdeck is able to play Steam Library games

@KellerMay2 @swshriv @NintendoAmerica Crash, Spyro, and others got remastered and those games are sold for $40 or less because they're old games from old gen consoles, so why should games like Skyward Sword get a full price tag as if it's new? It just seems like a nostalgia trick to me.

@CaseyExplosion @winterwarburton @glassbottommeg And it's basically a PC meaning you can run anything on it, not just the small library of games Nintendo allow you to run. On top of the fact that it also means you don't get charged for a crappy online service.

tired of the downgraded ports that still manage to look and perform poorly. i hope in the future with the steam deck releasing and even after it’s release, that nintendo will stop making bad decisions with their hardware, online service, pricey ports, and much more. for a-

@rpdtentacion @redpup112 @Akfamilyhome Sure, let me drop a couple hundred dollars (at the most) on a N64/GameCube and then anywhere from 60-300 bucks for the game itself. None of which goes to Nintendo themselves. And Nintendo wonders why they have such a problem with older games being emulated.

@Zari_Wari Only issue I have with it is the awkward button layout, but that's not enough to deter me away from wanting one. I really hope it takes off and ends up being a competitor for the Switch so that Nintendo can stop doing the bare minimum and getting away with it.

(@vDeadbolt) reported
@mintyMit Hell, I stopped playing on consoles because of what Microsoft and Sony did to their consoles. We want them to succeed and evolve the gaming landscape, not hinder it because they can. Nintendo wouldn't have an emulation problem if they just rerelease their games

@SlyTater Nintendo has gotten sued over joycons and they still haven’t fixed the issue. Trust me they don’t care all that much

@Mandalore_1978 @KaxiPL @VibeOfNewVegas Very soon these games are going to be unavailable to you in any possible way unless you somehow intend to fix every cartridge you own, as well as the consoles that are aging and overheating, and don't tell me that you expect Nintendo to give a ****.

@Wario64 Anyone who owns a switch.... And is buying this.... Is part of the reason why Nintendo gets away with **** like this. You're LITERALLY the problem...... This isn't worth $300....... You're still going to get dropped frames.... Apparently joy drift too! Lol!
