@BabDotCom You know the game/tv show that literally mailed out a commercial to nintendo power owners before the game came out, and cheat sheets every issue afterwards on how to beat the game, where you needed a subscription on a nintendo commercial.

@zerowondering Nintendo always think they have the only solution to a problem. They don't even take a look at other companies. That has restricted their potential. Neta se maman

@zerowondering I think the biggest problem still is that Nintendo doesn't quite want Smash to be the competitive game it just is by now. Online is a good example: Very important for the competitive scene, not important for casuals who just play it at parties and well, look at online now.

@jeanwanwan @chasisphotos I was the oldest and only had 1 control for my Nintendo 64. But I let my sisters play the only game that I have Yoshi Story, the problem was that they really hated when a Yoshi died, so they usually just played the first level.

@RogueArtist13 I get why Nintendo isn´t doing so cus like then you´d have the problem that the 3DS had where there´d be games exclusive to the new console, and the Switch is too expensive for that to be acceptable, either way the normal Switch is def underpowered.

@AurumTheWonder the issue literally just comes down to balancing hardware and what they can do to make the game run at 30-60 fps theres just no way with the current hardware, and nintendo consistently puts out weaker hardware (especially because the switch is literally a handheld)

@Turtletobb @SpawnWaveMedia Supply is an issue but Nintendo isn't offering up one for at least 2 to three and even still Steam Deck will have more value as an Open Ecosystem.

@AnimalRoyale any hope for a lost account/restart issue on Nintendo switch? Clicked through a user screen and looks like all milestones and content is gone and back to L1 😖

@MrKSOdavis @TWTHEREDDRAGON That's the craziest take ever. You do know that the gaming market is 70% casual with 80% of that playing on PS consoles. That's with Nintendo included. The problem is most gamers don't even realize theyre on that casual cateragory.

@GreshamKayden @AidenRS139 This is the issue Nintendo wants Mario "On Brand" Illunination always makes cheap lowest common deniminator safe films and Miyamoto notoriously hates putting story into mario games They had to TRY HARD to even get Galaxy 2 to be a thing. This thing looks to be very bland

Alright. Since my issue with CSP has been solved, I found out today my original Nintendo DS can no longer be charged since I had planned on trading some Pokémon from my (working) 3DS. I’ll be opening commissions much earlier than intended to raise funds for a refurbished 2/3DS.

@MenningOwen There's been an ongoing chip shortage for the past several years. Sony and Microsoft simply can't produce enough consoles to keep up with demand, especially with scalpers as on ongoing issue. Meanwhile, Nintendo bulkordered a ton of Switch chips before the shortage occured.

Since the UK didn't see the 80's video game crash and rise of Nintendo/Sega like the US did and computers like the ZX Spectrum/BBC Micro were I thought a little more popular than consoles, were there any accessible games or screen readers for the blind for any of them?

Last RT Not surprising Nintendo Online is still a mess. Not as bad as what they did for the Wii & Wii U era's of the service but it's still a mess and made even worse is that they trying to enforce Online as a way to get add-ons for "free" for certain games they own.

I really appreciate accounts that let you login using a smartphone app (ie Nintendo store on the Switch, streaming apps on Roku). It’s a pain to have to type that stuff in on the native platform sometimes

@NintendoAmerica how do I get details about my nephews Nintendo switch account? The switch is damaged and having battery issue. I need to link it to his epic games account so he doesn’t lose his skins and such
