@RoxieLolbit @NintendoAmerica And hey, a problem I've heard some people had with Skyward Sword with motion controls was that they were left handed, and couldn't use the Wiimote properly as a result, so this fixes that

@elliotduby But does Nintendo actually want Crash in? That is the question.

I'm fairly chill and not bothered by most things but Nintendo's controller drift is something that genuinely irritates me. It's a really annoying problem that almost every single person who owns a switch console has. Joycons around here genuinely cost more than the actual games.

@Qufasa Not a fan of $70 either but I’m also not a fan of content being made for and saturated values inherited with subscriptions. Different models suit different content, Nintendo and Sony are built around front loaded single player ms is aiming for engagement and service

@NintendoAmerica Can’t use a joy con cause they drift, Nintendo 0_0. I suppose it isn’t a problem tho, right?

@Brandon79151370 The way things are going it could be a couple of weeks before a patch fixes that issue. I have no idea how the game got certified on the Nintendo Switch as it's got a game breaking bug! Hopefully the patch does fix all these issues though.

“At least Nintendo tells us when a game is going to be delisted!” Bruh, they OWN THE SERVICE. This is entirely artificial scarcity. Nintendo nerds are just brain poisoned at this point. No corporation is your friend. Stop defending them!

@stopskeletons There has been a lot of talk regarding a new service Nintendo will be offering in the near future, and the word is these three games were used as tests for it before it actually gets announced and goes live. Time shall tell if its true though...

@Jon_Noaych @NintendoAmerica Sloan just kinda broken. But I mean, BD players and finding dumb ways to farm.go hand in hand.

@_kysyami_ Looking on the Nintendo website, they will fix the joycons for you for free if it's drifting but depending on how bad the damage is you might want to contact them. Sorry you had to go through that :(

@MojangSupport @dungeonsgame my MC Dungeons closes due to an critical error. 3 times today. Also lagging in playing + loading. Nintendo Switch 🙄 after latest dlc in your season pass.

@KindaFunnyVids I hate this whole routine of "wait for $60 ports just to be able to access older titles" everybody has adopted. Nintendo should just dump all their classic titles on a cloud based emulation service. That way there's no worry with future console compatibility.

@SYACVG You know, Gabe Newell said: giving a service that's better than what they receive from pirates is the best way to stop piracy. Then look at Nintendo,aggressive against piracy & making it harder to buy their games for no reason. I don't pirate, but it's a quote to think about.

@TwistingTop @NintendoAmerica There was no free camera control in Skyward Sword so it'll be a non-issue.

@Polygon I’m not sure what the issue here is. Nintendo games rarely go on a meaningful sale, so if you want the game I would just buy it.

@Crzygreekdude @Italianclownz Why not Stadia/Luna? If the answer to why PS & Nintendo is MS wants the easy coin, then Stadia & Luna are just as good a move for XBox as supporting consoles. BTW Stadia is not sub service (Free@1080p) You might as well support all if it is about $ & not growing XB ecosystem & GP

@elliotduby In my opinion I would like to crash in smash for once and for all so that they give them a lesson of karma and do not disparage some characters who do not need that hatred (although some if they deserve it for the scratchy tactics of nintendo and its fans)

@IGN As much as drift sucks is it really Sony's fault. They've gotten their joysticks from the same place for a long time(same with Microsoft, and I believe Nintendo), and it's only just now a major issue. Could the company just of sent out a bunch of faulty joysticks?

@NintendoAmerica I can’t wait for this. Literally been holding out since the Wii U came out on finishing this game on Wii because I thought there’d be an HD version for Wii U. Glad I waited!! Hope they fix the constant reminders of what you are collecting everytime you load the game.

@StageCraftBeast What issue of Nintendo Power is this from? It seems interesting but with how many fake lost media things have been popping up lately I'm skeptical, especially with the concept
