@Grindstackgo Right, and what happens in a few years when Nintendo makes a new console and stops supporting the Switch🤔 it’s odd cus they’ve become a Money-Grab type company since the Switch and I don’t get why they wouldn’t bring back VC...wouldn’t that make them more money then the service?

@TheRetroKaiju @NintendoAmerica I have. And it was never a problem for me. It gets fairly exceptable as long as you keep in mind it'll be boring. Also, as far as I saw, won't this still put you into the flight segment? All this does it make it so you don't have to go to a bird statue.

Legitimately games that aren't Nintendo games are why I'm playing my switch right now. Whats the ******* point of the switch when in total I've spent enough money to fix or replace **** and I could have just gotten a ****** pc.

@Joey5802 nintendo hasnt said anything recently about splat 3 since that last big direct that happened back in feburary of this year so i think this mall is 100% getting in trouble

@hawaiinguy808 Only in gaming unfortunately and apparently only PS fans enforce this. Xbox and Nintendo fans have no problems with this. I can’t imagine being made fun of for watching movies that are more then 2 years old.

@BrownieheroEXE I'm trying to point out Nintendo's obviously flawed business practices, I had absolutely no intention of "manipulating people". As you said, it's your money, buy it, I don't really have a problem with it.

@musa_voided Don’t **** talk the best Zelda game ever made just because Nintendo is being ******. There was absolutely no reason to make an HD version of this game and DEFINITELY not to make it $60 again with no new features. Asking for these remakes for games barely old enough is the problem

@awesomelink234 @Reecee_yt Yeah, as scummy as nintendo is charging 60 bucks for a literal ten year old game, it’s the only way to play it for me since i only have a switch even if there are better offers like the new mass effect collection or the ever-loving crash trilogy (fully remaked as well)

@jtsknight92 What’s your point here? That Nintendo shouldn’t bring beloved and highly requested games to their lackluster online service because -some- fans won’t play them?

The problem was complicated and wrapped up in some big feelings; the solution was to promise him a Nintendo Switch if he tried 100 new foods. We have shifted feelings elsewhere (music class, recognizing Big Energy) and can now eat without meltdowns. 🙏

@Nullificationn Chief aint happening. Sakurai has stated before the character has to have appeared on a Nintendo console. So until that rule is broken, I'm assuming its law. Halo Collection on switch maybe?

@ChiliToaster Once again, Nintendo stiffling online distribution to the point of stagnation, requiring you to either cough up their inflated price, or buy hyper inflated physical prices, is entirely at the fault of Nintendo. We dont see this issue with any other platform.

@DragonNexus Activision & EA constantly destroy their limbs for numerous reasons. I've got plenty of issues w/ Nintendo's tactics but this barely qualifies (since my prior comment still stands) so I don't see why folks are acting like it's mandatory when nobody put weapons to folks' heads.

@siabxtch They aren’t only because of marketability issues. Every time they released a PSP it got destroyed by Nintendo despite its popularity. So eventually Sony gave up

@DynamoSuperX After what's been going on, I don't want another port again. If you want a old game that badly, boot up your old system, emulate it, buy it online, I DON'T CARE. Even if Nintendo does deliver the goods, there's always a Monkey's Paw like problem that crops up soon after.

@theRazbuten oh no it's totally a problem and they should know better but it's also, like, not a big problem compared to, say, Rockstar having 100 hour work weeks or CD Projeckt giving it's executives huge bonuses for failing to do their jobs in comparison, Nintendo being dumb is fine

@Camoolina For most games you do not have to pay to play online, whereas both PS and XBOX (and Nintendo, but fck Nintendo) charge a subscription for online features for most of their games. Also PC allows you to have different sources to buy games from and you have less storage issues

Well I’m pretty pissed at whoever ported Subnautica to the Switch, be it @UnknownWorlds @NintendoAmerica or someone, I’m pissed. I tried playing my 11 and half hour game up, and it crash every time it was in the loading screen. Someone who ported @Subnautica fix your game, please

Say what you want about Nintendo but save for the joycon drift I’ve never had trouble making characters move exactly how I want in their video games.

@GameStrikerX2 @Bruh82988838 That's not my main problem, I was just informing you that there's nothing wrong with a guy saying a company's not your friend. Because they're not. Nintendo's actions since the death of Iwata have shown that clearly but it's always been the case.

And I am getting extremely tired of people saying "Nintendo's such a terrible company, they never do anything good. honestly they should just file for bankruptcy already smh" Okay, if they were to never exist again, the whole video game market would CRASH immediately.

@nintendolife As much as I'd love to see that, Nintendo is dragging their ******* feet on this issue. Everyone should just pirate their old games. There's no other way you can signal to them that encourages action, they want people afraid and waiting so they can be thanked for their bullshit.

@YaBoiPsy @XradicalD @BoundaryBreak I think Nintendo right now has done some good despite some issues. They wouldn’t be selling the Switch as it is now without doing nothing positive. They’re not just selling towards the hardcore fandom. Getting towards 100 million is no small or simple feat.

@SeafoamGaming Is this about the latinx stuff or the new nintendo things? While the latinx thing is a bigger issue, but it's still not as bad as more recent issues.
