@TJBV12 @BoundaryBreak I don't understand the issue with splatoon though. It wasn't dlc so idk why Nintendo wouldn't put one of their most popular new ips in smash.

@luisn2019 @NintendoAmerica This is a great addition to smash, the best announcement for this fighters pass… i also wanted crash but it would’ve been better if he took kazuya’s spot…. Kazuya was the biggest disappointment for this pass

@SDragonhog Ethan I consider you a friend, but this take is absolutely childish. Nintendo didn't screw anything up. Nintendo listened to their fans and got them one of the most voted characters. And they certainly didn't "kill" Crash. I can only hope you're just joking.

@ThePokemon3000 @NintendoAmerica I have it on ps4. Thanks though. I'm just pointing out how having a cloud version is a very dodgy option. What happens when the serves eventually go down or Nintendo stops supporting the switch? What about input lag? Cloud ports cost the same as physical. They're lazy ports

@Bry2638939 @Erick_8820 @NintendoAmerica I have no doubt there will be input lag. It’s less of an issue in slower, turn based games like these but it’ll be there.

@NintendoAmerica Can we also get a restock of fighters pass 1 amiibo? I missed all of them because you won't take care of your scalping problem

@SDragonhog It's nothing to do with believing you. It's more that your complaint about Crash not making it in is Nintendo's fault, and "Nintendo killing Crash" is completely wrong, and comes across as entitled and childish.

@Plurfectbliss @notrodolis @NintendoAmerica I'll be honest, the 1.5 and 2.5 collections on PS3 were a bit rough. I imagine a switch to cartridge would help a bit, but load times were a bit rough. Rarely, drive forms would even just crash the game. I don't like cloud gaming, but that's probably their reason.

I think the issue with sore can be summarised as 'Nintendo were super tight with Square soft, but lost FFVII (which for some reason everyone in the gaming sphere holds as the second coming of Christ) to sony because of hardware limitations/storage space of the N64.

@2PProject @NintendoAmerica Cloud gaming should be an optional service to play games not a substitute you egghead.

Where Is Will?🪓🩸
(@WhereIsWill1) reported
@PatStaresAt But he's been on several Nintendo consoles and handhelds. Don't see what the problem is, if they were able to get Cloud, which feels like a harder sell.

@TheRealDeedor @NintendoUK Thousands and thousands of games, and you can't find a single one to play. Sounds like a you problem.

Sora is cool and all but the netcode is still dog. #SuperSmashBrosUltimate , we have a Nicktoons All-Star game will Rollback and Nintendo makes millions of dollars and can't provide a good internet service. Actual Copium from Ultimate defenders.

@SeaJayMaffris Cloud's issue was that SE wasn't on a Nintendo platform since they backstab them. We figured it was hard but not impossible. Sora was basically "Disney owns this and will never let their character into a fighter cause they don't like that." Totally different things IMO.

There's no way to know but I really wanna find out just how much trouble it was for Nintendo and the mouse to make the deal

@ager126 @AlexTremo_uwu @NintendoAmerica Usually I try to stay optimistic when it comes to fighter reveals because even if I don’t like it/not a fan of I’m sure they have an audience. Like I still feel bummed out that Crash and Monster Hunter didn’t make the cut. But oh well

I think the only reason Twitter didn't crash is because Nintendo was like. Be ******* ready

They didn’t put Crash in Smash, Nintendo still salty bout the 90’s and the PS1

(@gifgif10) reported
@cashewgames1 I think it was more of a money issue. Cause Nintendo was very aware people wanted him in the game. But Disney is super protective of their properties, so I’d imagine it cost a pretty penny to get him in the game

Im gonna say it. Nintendo dodged a bullet avoiding putting crash in the game with how ****** activision is

@Mewgle I was expecting Crash as he, like sonic, was a viable threat to Nintendo during his debut but given that his inclusion /now/ would be Activision representation/royalties and not Sony I'm /totally/ happy with Sora instead.

@_hackJammer And at least Scrooge McDuck would look like a fun character to play! I’m mad Nintendo went through the trouble to have Disney licensing only to get a guy that looks like a third of the cast lol. Oh well
