But why would Capcom, Konami, EA, etc. ever sign their legacy content over to Nintendo's subscription service when they can instead re-package it themselves into a classics bundle and then sell it direct-to-consumer?

@Reecee_yt @NintendoAmerica Do you have proof that all the tennis and golf content was ready to be launched at the launch of the video game without any errors or glitches? (I answer you do not have it)

After the street date for ‘Curious Castle for Nintendo 3DS’ was broken, Bizarre Creations has pushed back the European release of ‘Geometry Commando DS’ by a week.

@LisaMcRad VC was a good idea handled poorly with it's drip feed approach. Sega had a better service with Sega Channel. Over 20 years ago. Just play ROMs and don't pay Nintendo for this. GC games or later might be worth the money.

@LisaMcRad VC was a good idea handled poorly with its drip feed approach. Access to tons of games all the time could've been cool. Sega had a better service with Sega Channel. Over 20 years ago. Just play ROMs and don't pay Nintendo for this. GC games or later might be worth the money.

@unique_exemplar You can send in your joycons to Nintendo at no charge and they will fix the drift if you don't /want/ to spend money.

@alanlikesgames @nintendolife I’ve also noticed the Jaleco/Data East release situation. Seems like a missed opportunity for other publishers to follow suit. I suppose I was hoping that Nintendo would delve a little deeper into their own rich vault and produce some much needed classics for the service...

@GIF73940300 @xMBGx Gotta love the because Microsoft is doing better Sony is in trouble. Yet no one mention’s Nintendo, why? Because of their exclusives, you know who also has very good exclusives? Sony. MS can buy all the studios they want but that doesn’t mean success…

@fwurrel @NintendoAmerica I do agree, they have one of the best customer service also.

@DeoxysPrime At this point Nintendo could probably run a modesty profitable service to stream their music and their music alone. Probably a bad idea for others but I honestly think people are that desperate for legitimate access to casually listen to their catalog. Money left on the table

@StylesX2_ @TeamYouTube Because its a Nintendo Issue. YT cant really do something here. They claimed, you are ******. Thats just how it is. Yoh should go after Nintendo. But you cant do that either. Its a ****** up System.

to different buttons I find it can be a bit confusing (the letter buttons on xbox vs nintendo annoy the **** out of me and I constantly hit the wrong button. I've had multiple concussions and broken my hands a couple times, my reaction times aren't always great.

"but we have to consider the issue of brand identities in the metaverse era.." he mumbles to himself, left hand swiping the newsfeed, soaking in the morning rush of information. "honey, your cereals are soaking up the milk.." she whispers as their son boots up the nintendo switch

@NintendoAmerica Dang, thought maybe Strikers would’ve avoided the same issue as Golf and Tennis since it’s a different developer 😟

@NintendoUK I made a return 3 months ago and haven’t been refunded, never got any help from customer service it’s always “it’s been escalated” I’ve been hearing the same thing for months, I need my money back asap, I hope I don’t need to escalate this myself.

well that's a tiny bit disconcerting, nintendo switch battery seems to be, for lack of a better term, swelling up and i have no money to fix it nor get a new one oops

Has anyone ever had one of their Nintendo switch controllers just stop working? Like I can’t pair it at all. There’s no green light and it doesn’t seem like it’s turning on. I’ve been trying to fix it for weeks but I can’t figure it out

@NamelessEnemy It has something to do with them using the same type of data transfer method since the GameCube I think? Nintendo doesn't feel like they have to upgrade that particular service cause there's no reason to. People still buy their online games even if they have connection issues

I can't transfer my old 3ds stuff to my new one. The old one is so broken that I can't get it to turn on, and because nintendo does things, you cant have the same nintendo account on multiple 3ds. And it still rememberes mine is on the old one... dread is setting back in...

I'm always up for crapping on Nintendo for not releasing games in their online service, but the lack of Super Mario RPG lies squarely (no pun intended) on Square-Enix's fault. Hell, they're the entire reason we never even got a sequel.

@NintendoAmerica I'm never resubbing to this idc what they add this shits getting ridiculous. I'm just done with Nintendo period they don't care about the fans they just shove any old **** at us to say they put something on the service.
