@AppleSlipper People act like if sonic was handed over to Nintendo that would solve all our problems If that happened the series would ACTUALLY die. Like not even get worse, just flat out die, banjo kazooie style

@harrybookTV Definitely did not have the resources to fix any of this. And shame on anyone who calls Nintendo to task for having this published before it was finished. 😡

@je_somerton I don't get the people who feel the need to be angry lol, but I kinda understand the frustration... There are many fanmade Pokémon games made by a couple indie devs in their spare time which don't have half as many bugs and issues... Nintendo just does not care anymore +

@IGN This argument that COD being on one platform/service killing competition is false and Sony knows it as well as Nintendo-they have both crushed Xbox in terms of hardware and software sales. You don’t see Nintendo doing this regarding Activision-only the biggest baby in the room is

@NintendoAmerica Don’t release a broken game. You are a triple A company with way more than enough support to be able to push the release back a whole nother year before even thinking of releasing this.

@RerezTV I think the problem is Nintendo sometimes stick a little too rigidly to their idea of not fighting the other consoles on specs.

@FallGuysOwl I can't load into the game at all as of an hour ago? Are your servers down currently or is this a platform (Nintendo Switch) issue? Anybody else having similar troubles on Switch?

I was going to talk about pokemon situation in a video, but I have seen many people defending Nintendo and pokemon... it seems a lot of them just love to buy a broken games. that is why they keep tricking the consumer.

@PleoTCA @dank__deku This, I wouldn't be surprised if this is what happened with 3d All Stars, Nintendo is so big that if everyone on Twitter who said they wouldn't buy the game really didn't, they'd still probably make a profit from people who don't even know there's problems.

@BaneWruse I'm speaking on the quality that gave them criticism that it's unplayable atm. I'm not saying the game can't be fixed I'm saying TPC & Nintendo are ruining their reputation by releasing a broken game like cyberpunk. Which can hit them hard in the long run like CDPr.

@Lateralusian @stephentotilo Nintendo didn’t develop S and V, that’s on Game Freak and the management is on The Pokémon Company who has this very strict and frankly stupid and unnecessary rule of a new Gen every 3 years. The problems isn’t do to budget, the problem is The Pokémon Company stupid time limit.

@AtelierRann Sounds about right! I remember it being worse than the playground arguments over Sega vs Nintendo. Or N64 vs PS1. Console wars are funny.. once they pass you have no trouble going back to play games you missed on those other consoles. What even was the point. Lol

I’ve finally gotten some hours into #PokemonScarlet and the gameplay is very good. But I will say that it runs worse than any Nintendo published game I have ever seen. I’m not at all used to seeing a first-party game with this many performance issues. Haven’t seen bugs, though.

@GriFFoss @JohnnyHedgeWolf @Roler42 That's just assuming they would go against the establish ground work and starfox is a example of them taking it seriously if they want to. the reason starfox died was do to lack of sells sonic won't have that problem. Nintendo should not own sonic but these are not the reason.

@TheInfamousGod1 @xyler94 @SSTheBlueLynx arms race. Had the Wii flopped Nintendo would've been in serious trouble. As it is the Wii I nearly did them in as well, thank God the Switch took off. But Nintendo as strong as they look now are 1 maybe 2 bad consoles away from trouble. So the console space is difficult. 2/2

I am incredibly impressed with the amount of copies #PokemonScarletViolet has sold since launch, & I congratulate their success...but the game does still have many obvious technical issues that need to be addressed. Nintendo & Pokémon Company need to sort their process out.

@NintendoAmerica Will buy it if you fix Pokémon scare violet, it looks so empty and Pokémon models make no sense don't act like animals or their number and locations are all out of wack

@Pokemon @NintendoAmerica The online Tera Raids are broken. The timer just made me lose a raid battle. It glitched and went all the way down in a second! How annoying!!

I hate Splatoon 3! Worst game I have ever played. Sure, the gameplay is fun, but the matchmaking and balance is complete garbage!!! I'm sick of it!! Fix it Nintendo! I can't even enjoy Turf War or Splatfests anymore!! #Splatoon3 #NintendoSwitch

@Tsubasa3214 @VGC_News What? how is this good for players? No more Crash, Spyro and Tony Hawk in Nintendo and Sony platforms. if anything, this is the worst thing that could happen to players, it just removes games from other platforms.

Apparently, people made calls to Nintendo about patching Scarlet and Violet. Because people who take those calls typically deny any problems, they said there wouldn't be any patches. However, it was later confirmed they'd be patching the games and it might take a couple months

The problem with #PokemonScarletViolet is that between the huge sales and the traditional tolerance given to Nintendo's 1st and 2nd party studios, these games have very little chance of being fixed. We can only hope that in the future, Nintendo will resolve to help Game Freaks ->

@CAPTOverkill All speculation of course but I feel out of all the Nintendo franchises Pokemon is probably the one with the absolute widest appeal and they figure at this stage people are so invested they can do it with little harm. It’s a shame because it wouldn’t take much to fix it up
