@VitoGesualdi They should suggest Nintendo as the biggest problem.

This is why I'm not a fan of executives. For me, so much of Nintendo's efforts—not all, but much—felt like this from the outset, because it was executive auteurs. SEGA had some creativity (Shining Force et al) but still, much the same problem just less pronounced. 22/25

I'm sorry but if you publish an academic paper you aren't an "author" that title is sacred and belongs to those who write about a curious monkey who gets into trouble or a guy who finds out Da Vinci secretly invented the Nintendo Wii or something

@mcclure111 The most Nintendo way to do this is to release 4-player BOTW multi, hide it behind friend codes for some reason, demand the $10k and then a completely different Nintendo lawyer realizes what's going on and issues a DMCA on his Twitch channel. And then the mod itself.

@RyGoesPOP @swordsman_red Or when we get another Smash or a SSBU port for next console, but unfortunately many companies (even Nintendo) will not accept any collaboration with Activision-Blizzard until they solve that problem or when Crash Bandicoot's rights are taken by a company with decent conditions

@Sio_the_man @stryato all nintendo first party games are sold at 60$ and stay that way forever with no discounts so it's more of a nintendo problem than a pokemon one

@benz145 They should do what Nintendo do and offer a cloud service for any games that can't run on Quest locally.

Because guess what, Diamond and Pearl also had two dangerous glitches (The Surf Glitch and the Broken Escalator Glitch) that Nintendo officially acknowledged and had services to patch them, which ran for *11 years*. If they don't do the same thing here, that's just sad.

@Gunderman96 I still think it was a bad move for them to take them down in the first place, especially if the Trilogy was going to be so broken on release. It reminds me of when Nintendo took down the Wii U version of Tropical Freeze from the eShop.

@CGQuarterly Every first week of the month was like the week before Christmas when I was a Nintendo Power subscriber. I would watch the mail like an absolute hawk. Sometimes it would be late and I’d see the issue in stores, which was just the worst.

@NayrmanBSC "wasn't what even in house devs wanted" the problem is that the GameCube, despite being powerful as a console, was not what audiences wanted despite the PS2 being the potato of its generation, it became the bestselling console of all time, and Nintendo absolutely noticed

@someclevername each on their own user linked to their own account works; kids can play your eshop games on their own accounts IF your account has the switch registered as primary. we are now a switch + 2 lites household. the lack of family sharing is terrible! please fix this @NintendoAmerica

@n_sakurai16 Two games I wanted to wait on that were notorious for being too expensive: Cyberpunk 2077 and Persona 5 Strikers for the Switch. AKA "The Broken Game" and "Nintendo never has sales"

@skatergumball I saw you say it can't connect to online but it can, you just gotta buy the Nintendo switch online. There's also a chance of your lite getting the drifting problem that the regular console has, and you can't detach the controllers to send them in separately for repair

@YamatufaGaming Have they fixed the low frame rate issue at Chocobo Square on Final Fantasy VII for the Nintendo Switch? If you don't know, play Final Fantasy VII again, and go to the Chocobo Square at the Gold Saucer.

@aDrive_tK The core fanbase would not be complaining if the problems with the games were addressed. It's not a problem of balancing what different people want out of the game, it's just Nintendo/GF/ILCA/whoever being lazy.
