What if @CyberpunkGame was on Nintendo Switch? It could be done with Cloud Streaming Service like there already is for Control.

@Kopter__FJA He blocked me when I pulled up an old thread he made when everything was being exposed that said something like "These issues could be best solved if Nintendo supported the scene" so I know dang well he's doing this in bad faith and not just clueless

Jennifer's joycon is really drifting now, so is mine, so is the joystick on BOTH wireless Gamecube controllers she bought. 😡🤬 Nintendo should never, ever live down this hardware problem and their unwillingness to make it right.

@AlanBrizan @Partymn1256 So it has been theorized that anyone who appears in Smash has to have been on a Nintendo platform at some port. People thought that rule was broken with Cloud but during his announcement for Smash he was also in Final Fantasy Explorers. The same for Joker who was in Persona Q2.

@MrGamez71 @DynamoSuperX See that's my problem with Nintendo, they hand pick female characters and leave all the others in the dust. They're doing it right now. They stopped using Rosalina moved on to little ms.Toadette and you see Toadette everywhere. Why not use them all????

@Origin_Dusk My issue is people are starting to hate Nintendo so suddenly because they C&D’d a tournament for using a mod. They have made many mistakes as of late but they’re far and away the more sensible video game company compared to most.

@EricW66959446 @NintendoAmerica As long as you own a physical copy of the game, back it up using a proper ripping program, and use that ISO, emulation is completely fine. Paying for digital games without paying for them is not emulation. That's piracy. Emulation is not the issue.

@davedropbear @HatInTime They’ve been working on porting dlc to Xbox and PlayStation for a very long time, they were able to easily port it to Nintendo Switch, but they had problems doing it for Xbox and PlayStation. So they had to remake the DLC from the ground up just for Xbox and PlayStation

@Sanador @cbarroso09 @MatPiscatella To my knowledge if you didnt have gs protection you wouldve sent it to nintendo directly using their warranty and if they couldn't repair it they wouldve sent you a new one. But thats truly bad luck, never had any console problem except the x360 in the last 30 years

@mike_587 @SpawnWaveMedia that wasn’t nintendo that said joycon drift isn’t an issue, that was the law firm defending them and they really couldn’t have said anything else. and like i said, i personally have had zero issues with the online but i know many people have. i’m not denying that

@thecaryatid Contact Nintendo. Tell them the problem. They might just do it for free. It's pretty hush hush. But they did it for me and my aunt. She had 2 do it. I had 1.

The biggest problem with Mario Odyssey is that it’s padded out with so many moons even when it doesn’t need to be. There’s no cap that keeps the stages from getting repetitive and as a result it kind of ends up becoming a one and done kind of game. #Nintendo

First time calling Nintendo support which is interesting. They don't have chat, email, or social media options for My Nintendo or Nintendo Store issues so I could only call.

@mxpeas Nah, I hate it 🙃 Give me my BOX to line up with my other BOXES lmaooo Also most Japan-sold games have English support so it never was an issue until now. Why @Nintendo made that decision with #AgeofCalamity I’ll never understand lol

@pyro_jack_ they can cross-play with any system, but they just cant cross save bc your account is tied to your psn. the switch will be the same when that comes out as it will be tied with your nintendo id. idk why they cant just add a login option to put in a mihoyo id for pc/mobil accts.

@_justadoggo @SpawnWaveMedia I am not talking about games, I am talking about the joycon drift that Nintendo refuses to acknowledge, how 7 out of 10 games in Smash lag and how unplayable MM2 online is, not to mention how aggressive they're against their own community. Aka Melee

@ThisIsMyTHandle @EthanPalombo @HugS86 And as for service, it’s hard to tell. I’m not sure how PS Now, which provides games from previous PS systems, has done much for consumers of PS. Nintendo has R&D so they may know something we don’t.
