@ProCookies128 @chapapa__ @NintendoAmerica It’s kinda 50/50. They don’t disappoint when they make games but they disappoint when they make business decisions. We just want them to fix up there act.

@NyxTheShield God damn Nintendo, that's why people slowlt starts to hate on you. Even SEGA is better than Nintendo bc they do not have problems with their fans making fangames.

Internally or not understanding the balance of there own events and fan led stuff (at least when it comes to Ult Cause this feels like an old guard problem, older Nintendo reps not wanting to adapt, cause clearly a part of Nintendo wants to do these —

@BadmouthBLP @cleveru16605923 @NintendoAmerica Already been did, and This still doesn’t excuse people ******* around with customer service, when they have nothing to do with this Melee stuff, yes I think Nintendo shouldn’t had did what they did but that bullshit above isn’t the solution

Alexalchemy says #Save Smash and #FuckNintendo

@AzuriteMaybe @TrifSmash @Sora_Sakurai It’s not Sakurai’s problem unfortunately since that is 100 percent on the higher ups of Nintendo but doing it here will still give awareness to the issue regardless

@GiantCaliber It's definitely a stupid decision but I don't think the line of reasoning is about buying Ultimate, but paying for the online service Nintendo provides. If Slippi is a free and better way to enjoy Smash online, why pay for a crappier alternative? #SaveMelee #FreeMelee

@Outright_Games I was going to buy my son Paw Patrol Mighty Pups Save Adventure Bay for Nintendo Switch, but the reviews on Amazon report so many bugs that it's practically unplayable. Is this something you are going to fix?

@NintendoUK Sill waiting for a response. Can you please help me resolve this issue? It's really worrying that this can happen from your Estore

(@atWisely) reported
@Future_ssbm This is def an issue that stems from the overall system of Nintendo imposing on companies for the *chance* to partner with them, without any plan to actual follow through So events dropped PM because Twitch, Redbull, etc requested it. Even though N never was going to in reality

Everyone shut up. The melee bullshit just pisses me off because everyone doesn’t understand legalities, moral issues, or how companies actually work. Nintendo is the greatest gaming company BECAUSE of their hard work and care. No company ever has -

@acrdraft The problem is chess isn't a video game. Video games tend to drift into obscurity due to their media advancing and upgrading as time goes on, and the companies no longer making copies of it. So in my head at least, part of Nintendo's actions to axe it make sense.

nintendo committed the great sin of allowing third party characters they didnt control full rights to into their video game and are now CHICKEN **** COWARD about it, forcing it to be everyone else's problem but their own fix your **** nintendo, and #SaveSmash

@FinallyRJ @Atomsk92 @Nintoonist The issue isn’t whether it can survive with / without Nintendo support though. It’s whether it can survive with Nintendo actively trying to suffocate the community on purpose.

@RandomName256 I've said before that Nintendo is just the perfect level of completely incompetent that they seem evil in times. They probably didn't even recognize a problem with the mechanics or even consider how the game might look to people outside of gameplay.

@AboutNintendo @DterminatedHero @NintendoAmerica Letting the other games have their time lets Nintendo profit whilst ignoring us. And this isn't just Melee. Nintendo has more of a duty to these developers than the general public - if it is a problem to Nintendo, they should deal with it. If not, it says a lot about Nintendo.

@JaypiPlus3 @IntroSpecktive prices, are very much worth the cost, whilst with the NSO, I’m actually contemplating if I should even bother renewing my subscription to use online, already means that Nintendo failed to provide an adequate online service.

Reminder: Nintendo knows how out of hand their fans can get but, they continue to do things that make their fans angry such as: acting like joy-con drift isn't a real issue, refusing to make their online servers better and other things too. Who's fault is it?

(@awsumsas) reported
@cleveru16605923 @NintendoAmerica You do realize that in order to get help from customer service, you need to have an ACTUAL problem, right? "Me no can play Melee" does not count as an actual problem, which means they have no reason to "help" you.

@MoonLightBiskit the real issue is Sony used to allow you to switch (or maybe it just depends on your system region setting) between O and X, this year Asian brains are eating **** apparently. Double suck for me who uses A on Nintendo mapping so now it's the other button AND a "X"

@DedliStitch We both know Nintendo is against us, my biggest issue with your initial tweet is that you're essentially victim blaming the community for trying to better their situation.

@supergroovy10 Yes. Go to Nintendo UK support and look for repair. Go to consoles and obvs switch. Then click other problems and book a repair. You can also click to just send an accessory. You will have to send it to them as they instruct. I did this back in the day to fix my Wii U gamepad.
