@KEEMSTAR The problem gets more worse because most new console gens like @nintendo and @PlayStation don't really care about adding something like backwards compatibility or virtual console which as an example the Wii had.

@NintendoAmerica You know what doesn’t suit my life? Having to send out my joycons to be repaired 2x and wait over a month for them to come back, only for the drift issue To come back almost immediately 🙄

@AlexTheEx_ they need help it looks like cuz optimizing all the games was likely the issue 3ds psp ps2 games all in 1 collection for the switch was likely a hassle NIntendo probbaly couldve tho theyre better at optimizing their own games

@joshquixote Honestly, IntSys has sucked at bringing their older FE games onto the latest handhelds/consoles. SS was 3DS Ambassador exclusive and SD was on the Wii U (and only for Europeans no less). The 3DS games might also have problems since Nintendo stopped 3DS production a while ago.

I was looking forward to a wee Paper Mario origami set coming. It didn't come. Instead, a cheap metal plate for a game i have no interest in came. When I asked customer service about it, they floated about terms and conditions. Thanks @NintendoUK. I expected more.

When you get banned from playing online smash when the game forcefully disconnects you. @NintendoAmerica fix your disgustingly terrible online. #SmashBrosUltimate

@doom_mori Nintendo patching it and deleting the save files of anyone that's used the glitch in 3, 2, 1... (do they actually wipe "glitched" saves? I know they do that when they find a mario maker level that exploits a "glitch"...)

@The_Omikron @SpawnWaveMedia The dock would have an dedicated LAN port and updated wifi 5/6. There were talks about a kinda Nintendo Gamepass coming when the rumors were debunked about the Xbox Gamepass app coming to switch. A big change could be coming also for the internet since it is a problem.

@CookieSkoon nintendo works in misterious ways. I mean we see what was cut but many times we might not see how it worked. Maybe that was the issue.

I don’t get people that complain about every dlc character for smash. Like c’mon just take the character, just since Crash or Waluigi didn’t make it in doesn’t mean the character is trash. (also saying Japanese favoritism for characters is cause Nintendo is a Japanese company)

@caiokendx @Pixel_TheLegend @NintendoAmerica the problem is that it only comes in perfect English The rest of the people do not matter, at least it must be in English, French and Spanish.

@Nivlacart @NintendoAmerica You also have to compare it to other remasters/remakes weve seen. Crash and Spyro remade their games from the ground up to look like modern game and they retail for half the price of a modern release. What is SS's excuse when it just looks like the same running on dolphin?

@GNgweh @PJ_SwitchStop @Sora_Sakurai I mean, Minecraft is owned by Microsoft. Also, there's a lot more Crash games released on Nintendo consoles (there's even 3 Crash games exclusives for GBA and 1 Crash game exclusive for NDS). However, game being released or not released on Nintendo console doesn't mean that +

@ObserverOmni @whitejohnlennon @Phant0mAbat I would expect an official nintendo event to be sterile and professional the same way official Disney events/locations are. But FGC events are made by and for adults. And in any case, the horny stuff has NOTHING to do with the smash community’s problems. It’s a scapegoat.

@ConcernedApe what about 'Local Communication' issue on Nintendo Switch??!?!? It's not working at all.

@DawidPatryk666 @PJ_SwitchStop @Sora_Sakurai Wait, did they have minecraft's IP? Does N'sane trilogy and crash 4 games coming to switch count as "having their IPs on a nintendo console"?

unfortunate thing about the nintendo switch's console mode: if you change the console size to make it more readable, trying to open the on-screen keyboard will cause an application crash #homebrew
