@DekuDeluxe i think the frame rate has improved a lot from the first trailer we've seen, and i think it's running on par with most non-nintendo developed games! i personally have no problems with asset reusage if they're good enough, as long as other lacking areas are updated +

@NintendoAmerica It would be a great opportunity to release GBA games in the Switch Online service, right?

@SaiyanPride45 @NintendoAmerica It's such an easy fix too :/.. BotW uses anti-aliasing, which is 99% why it looks far better. No idea why they wouldnt even use it for promotional material. If it's a budget issue, there are easy post-processes like the toon outlines used in Sun/Moon.

@iFixit Hm i could really use a written complete teardown of a Nintendo 2DS Xl and maybe replacement of the upper screen. Have one with broken screen laying around that I can't fix...

Yeah okay, so I can't link Pokémon Masters EX to my Google Account because it notices I'm in a region where it didn't officially release. But I CAN link it to my Dutch Nintendo Account without any issue. Just soften this Lootbox law around the edges already. -

Trying to get the necessary things to get home brew on my Wii has been a hassle, Usb storage and all. Scariest part is the fear of accidentally bricking the console before getting any recovery tools set up. Doubt that Nintendo covers issues related to modifying a Nintendo Wii

@AsoGirl29 That's what I'm worried too, even the previous Crash games were on Xbox and playstation consoles before being ported to Nintendo consoles later, Crash games should continue to be on the Switch so that every Crash fan can play them

@ModernVintageG Nintendo doesn't see the pro as a necessity, the switch hardware is cheap and they still sell a lot at the same launch price, also they can bring their first party titles without any problem, third party development struggle doesn't seems to be one of their priorities.

@jfun300 @VideoGamesEra @NintendoAmerica It's literally not though. Sorry, but I never imagined Ethan and Dawn's faces to look so...derpy. That's my biggest issue with it. It's just hugely jarring. They look like characters in a ****** mobile game, the faces and expressions could have been done *way* better to match OG

I've had more technical issues with the switch than any other nintendo hardware. I really hope the next iteration is a lot better made. Still have a day one 3ds, Gamecube, Wii, and WiiU that still work totally fine.

I do think the Nintendo community should lay off some of the over horniness, as It clearly does make some people uncomfortable. It also makes the community less welcoming to women, which is a major problem.

@JoraBoraNSFW ...Nintendo/The Pokemon Company gave Game Freak an extra 6-12 months to work on the game, especially concerning the graphics. I feel like that's the main issue with Pokemon games these days: not enough time is allowed to develop them. That's just my hot take on it, though.

@DynamoSuperX Nintendo did something that was 100% competent Usually they do something that is a little less competent than 100% and so that’s probably why trouble stirs up out of somewhere

@McTroid @NintendoAmerica If only Nintendo could implement a system that takes old games and puts them into a service bundled with online play, and, hypothetically, add GBA support. I wonder what such a thing would look like.

@CaptainLoin @Hero0fSandwich Again, more of a Nintendo problem than GameFreak, but you are right. But as I said, I do think that people should know what they're getting into when getting these games. They're not going to be the third version, so given that, you should know by now not to get them.

im genuinely hoping that after 7 years of mk8. nintendo will have TRIED with mk9 to make it work. (literally only 2 stats matter. speed and accelleration, the Lag compensation is so terrible items dont work at times.) I genuinely just want new tracks to race/battle on.

@FurhnXB @ARobinYouKnow @PaulTassi Imagine thinking "good graphics" means "hyper realistic". Jesus Christ. Those examples you used are also acceptable when done well, like how a lot of Nintendo games are cel-shaded and no one has a problem, because its handled well.
