@GamersWatchCrew It'll be down to PlayStation to allow it on their service, which I feel is unlikely. I can see Nintendo going for it however, because they can't run full AAA games due to hardware capabilities. Xbox have invested in the future it seems and it looks promising!

@Skittles_SSB It looks like Nintendo Power at a glance, but it's actually the Summer 1997 issue of Q64, a quarterly N64-focused magazine.

@NewH0rizonsH0 My 2 step verification is ******* me up because the Google authenticator saids my password is too short which it isn't. And my macbook pro isn't let me change my Nintendo account password so I'll be along while till I can do it since I need a pc to get that fix out.

Some dumbass thinks they're slick and "stole" my Nintendo account 🙄. Like really, what could you POSSIBLY benefit from stealing a F R E E account except broken knee caps? Funny thing is that I'm still logged in on my ohone, so I could just delete it :) #Nintendo #NintendoSwitch

@mcsoldier603 @Pokemon I think the issue here is that Game freak/Nintendo do not listen to fans enough. This game does not even look like a remake. More like remaster

@Stadia_Se7eN I didn't say it was good for people who don't have Gamepass but ultimately companies want you using there service. I can see Gamepass coming to other services like Sony & Nintendo. But if they don't yes you'll have to buy there box. If I want to play Spiderman I need a PS.

Apex Legends on Nintendo Switch is a disaster for most players as of now. Let's hope future updates will fix low fps and sound issues in the game. #ApexLegendsSwitch #ApexLegends #Respawn

@PlayApex @NintendoAmerica Can yall please fix the motion controls for handheld? The horizontal doesn't function at all and they are inverted. Good job on the tv tho cause they work perfectly fine, but when I want to play on the go I can't play well since the motion on handheld is a bit bad

@nintendolife Nintendo should have never allowed crash 4 to come to switch, also, Nintendo NEEDS to end any and all business relationships with Activision|Blizzard perminately do to how ****** and scummy Activision|Blizzard is and how badly they treat their employees by not fairly paying them

@Supesmin @kingTaven @OrdinaryGamers Problem is Nintendo keeps claiming it's a hybrid--which is idiotic nonsense,so the tablet is compared to the ps4 and Xb1. At this rate it's laughable to compare them, but as a handheld, it is impressive. Just wish Nin didn't tell normies it was a home console to avoid comparison.

@IronGottman @nintendolife No I don't mean like "Dragon Ball shouldn't be on Nintendo", I just doubt Kakarot would run well on Switch. The game itself is already kinda unpolished and has its occasional issues on PS4, the game would probably be hella blurry and have low draw distance on Switch.

@TheNintendoFeed More than fine paying $60, and idk why it's such an issue. Nintendo always charges full price with very rare exceptions. They upgraded the visuals and added in an entire new way to control the game. The new controls are worth $60 to me alone.

@ZillaTimesTwo @caiokendx Sakurai doesn't provide budget. He uses it. You're trying to tell me he overworked himself into the hospital because he wanted to save Nintendo's budget for the project? When he literally said it's a budget issue before? Do you read anything?

@Microsoft locked my account for the comments I made on twitter; they won't even let me sign in unless I have a phone now? I literally can't sign into my xbox live account because I don't have a mobile phone? And y'all wonder why you're losing to @Sony and @NintendoAmerica

@RepentantSky @TheNintendoFeed The problem is that the only way Nintendo gets the message of "this is not acceptable" is if people don´t buy it. Yes, we have the loot box/microtransaction issue with EA, but that is a different thing because it garnered the attention of governments. Something that they won´t

@michellelynn097 @Stackett98 @PlayerEssence With actual netcode I'm talking in terms of fighting games not Nintendo VS Sony VS Xbox. Smash has delay based netcode which is already awful, but it's legit the worst delay based out of every fighting game. If it was rollback then Wifi wouldn't be nearly as big as an issue

@JimValley AEW is Nintendo after the video game crash. Atari(wwe) oversaturated the market and while some of it was great it's outweighed by so much bad to the point where it's ruined wrestling for many. Not saying AEW is going to lead to a boom but that's the position they're in now
