  @NintendoAmerica After the update the games are still lagging and buggy mess and we are supposed to drop $35 blinds on DLC?

  @Splatoon3ink Yeah, I think that's a pretty cool one Also, I checked, and that issue is on Nintendo's end, they haven't put the information on the new stage(s) onto the NSO app yet

  @luci_4k to make it harder to see chargers, because when nintendo has to fix a problem they do it in the worst way possible

  @ProjectXbox17 Sorry, but you're still wrong. Sony and Nintendo will continue to get ABK titles, whether currently announced or not. Brad Smith said *especially* Call of Duty, not *only* Call of Duty. You're making that **** up to try and take a W and it's not working for you.

  @sampson3121 Your definitely wrong, saying ABK don't release new games on Switch is a lie. From Overwatch 2, Tony Hawk, Crash ect. And once the deal finalizes COD. The regulators and you trying to exclude Nintendo are being disingenuous. You're the one repeating quote not knowing context.

  @NintendoAmerica $35 dollars for DLC for a broken game? Look, I want Pokémon to get better but this is just sad.

  @Jackogien I mean we’re just about to enter the third season and Nintendo’s STILL removing issues with terrain collision

  @NintendoAmerica Does this do anything aside from giving you a new lobby? That's the impression that I got from the original trailer, and I'm having trouble seeing the point if that's all this is.

  @SnowydayUK2 @ProjectXbox17 @DeekeTweak At the loss of spyro crash and other series? No thanks. Nintendo got the most out of spyro. Both those series should be multiplatform not xbox exclusive

  @CatTheKitten1 @yggdrasilsaltar no that's exactly the problem, Nintendo could port the games to switch and continue to profit off them and piracy would go down. but if ur only options to play a game are $400 and $0 most ppl are gonna go with $0

  I’ve just witnessed someone throw their Ultra Stamp at the poll on Wahoo instead of at me, and then instantly disconnect. 😭😭 Nintendo why

  I can tell you what Nintendo is probably going to do about Steve being broken in Ultimate: Nothing. Any support requests to them is going to get you a canned statement and a closed ticket. They have your money from it already, they aren't going to do anything.

  Tranquil Sane Zebra (@ADHD_93) reported 35 minutes ago

  I think ppl are starting to realize what esports is lol. You need MONEY to make it tick. Without Nintendo (filthy rich sponsor) supporting the scene at all, it leaves smaller/mid lvl fish being the sole heart of hosting events. Orgs w/ financial issues of their own w/o huge $

  The Nintendo Trucker (@NintendoTrucker) reported 39 minutes ago

  @LeMonado21 @DJK1NG_Gaming No one’s saying Nintendo can do what they want. The problem is you think Nintendo has to negotiate and they don’t. They’re part owner of the property. They just sit down and say “Does this seem like it would be profitable.” But it’s not a negotiation it’s a strategy meeting.

  This is paired with Nintendo's horrific scatter gun approach to its handling of the competitive scene for its game, threatening larger majors with licensing issues, etc making the entire space go from what felt like a possibly grassroots led space to a legal minefield.

  @XboxP3 @poncle_vampire Xbox is such a sad platform. Could you imagine if Nintendo or PlayStation had the resources that your platform does? Ineptitude at its finest. Its going to be comical to watch how you guys fumble ABK. You can't manage your current load. Gaming is art, not a "service"

  @Lucia_Tortuga apparently they're doing a 1.2.1 to fix this now its Nintendo's fault for not booting people off by doing maintenance

  Minstora (@Minstora_Gaming) reported 45 minutes ago

  I think for there to be any significant chance of Nintendo noticing the Steve issues or doing anything about it we'd likely have to see the Japanese smash scene ban the character or create a lot of discourse. Do yall think this is likely?

  @NintendoAmerica How about you fix the game you sold us before you sell us DLC?

  @Ashton68781988 @NintendoAmerica You TPC fans can go to hell, always that same "well look, they will fix it" bullshit. You deserve this ****** company you sick people, I am pissed off with the money spent on this ****, but if you like to swallow any ****, then go take it up your ***.

  @WDBTHtGP And for the record I hope we do get an emergency patch from Nintendo (as unlikely as it is ;_; ) to fix the issue because without it, he should be legal. It's just too gamebreaking and too hard to enforce -just- the tech being banned.

  @NintendoAmerica we will be buying but please continue to fix bugs in the base game

  @The80HDkid @Stardusky3 So, there is nothing wrong with how Sony operates, they just choose to live in the edge. A lot of companies choose to live this way. But the moment a major product flops, they are in big trouble. But yes, technically, Nintendo is more profitable because they choose to be. They…

  It’s time for Nintendo to fire whoever they hired to make these Splatoon 3 stages The last update did nothing to fix the problems. We have been having on the stages. They must be just completely ignoring what people want to see changed on the stage is right.
