@Slade4Lucas @DailyBlackChars But your solution still only covers the first game while paying merely lip service to the later two. I don’t think that’s something that Splatoon devs (or Nintendo in general) would be ok with, especially considering how much bigger the series has gotten in recent years.

In case anyone is having this exact issue... If you are playing the PC version of Tales of Vesperia with a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller turn off haptics in your controller settings on Steam so that your inputs will still register in battle.

@MLPMVGuy And yet we all know Nintendo will be sure to remedy this problem with whatever their next console will be. At least, they better address it. They better not be tone deaf again.

Sad Boi Is Getting Better At Motion Design

@JonComms Realistically, I estimate global sales to be 17.6M. Scarlet/Violet became the first Nintendo product in history to sell 10 million units in 3 days, and before the holiday season, so unless the performance issues caused wide buyer skepticism, my low-end guess is 15M.

@BlackAngus_GotN @DDayCobra Why would Nintendo have an issue with SNL doing this parody? It was good. 🤔 Besides that….why would they block his video because it’s no different than someone reviewing a show or trailer? Why is this considered “copyright infringement” and reviewing say Last of Us not?

@GamePassDad @BobWulff There’s more probability a game is likely to grow even with lack of innovation as far as games as a service, however xbox hiding behind a $180 almost $200 paywall to do so is the exact opposite of what Nintendo’s approach is. nintendo at least doesn’t force u, to be online

@pannkai Nintendo has a problem with not looking into reports and just taking the posts down, like did they just forget that false reports— well exist?? Istg they need a moderation team TwT

@mask_bastard Nintendo tend proof a lot of there concepts, even their games. Even though you might see this it might flounder because the tester team had issues with it.

@SG_Animates @Emis_doodls Nintendo got into a lawsuit about how vulnerable their JoyCons were to Drifting, something that's a huge scale problem Then winning this basically validates them that they don't gotta do a damn thing to fix it

@ObligatoryFate @BoundingComics @NintendoAmerica First of all, the protag is 17 and can't marry another 17 yr old, but they can marry a 45 yr old. They should not be having an 11 yr old in the roster anyway. I have an issue on the Japanese side and the American side with this game. Problems everywhere.

@CaliCastaway22 I kind of agree. I grew up with an Atari 2600, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Playstation, 2,3,and 4. I think it's the game development that has caused the issues. Games are so realistic now it blurs the lines between entertainment and reality.

@ArtistSince05 idk why some people think that the twitter api not being free is going to end the switch share service, even though nintendo is a massive company i still don’t like it that twitter is ending every community made automated project on this platform…

Some businesses have to be cleared by you anyway before you can even make purchases through your bank -glares at Nintendo Direct-. But as long as you don't abuse it they can usually help block these purchase. Especially if you can submit proof of the issue or if it's a known MLM.

@RGT_85 is right regarding the retro problem. Look at it this way,e.g toy collectors of original series figures. What options do you have, nothing. Least with old games you have options. #RETROGAMING #retrogames #Nintendo

To the people expecting The Last of Us Remastered to be announced in tomorrow's Nintendo Direct, Don't be too heart broken if it doesn't happen. TLoU is a Sony property. If they were bringing some classics like OG God of War, I'd believe it. But Sony... they're kinda jerks.

@Daniel328DT @DrummerFromFife even with that service, nintendo still tells you to do the troubleshooting yourself first and foremost, and from what I've heard from some people, it's not super reliable because they'll just shut it down with "oh you just need to calibrate them"

@MALACHY_Officia pretty sure multiplayer isnt the emulation and just nintendo online's service being bad. other games that use that service that arent emulated (like mario maker 2) are still laggy since nintendo is still using dialup or some ****
