The type of fans that would get VERY upset that Microsoft won’t make Crash & Call of Duty exclusive on Xbox are the same type of fans that got upset when God of War came to PC or if Nintendo decided to bring some of their games to PC in future. Its business at the end of the day!

@PureDeadGaming I don’t think sony will ever do day one on any service. They know they can’t take the losses Microsoft can. I see sony more like Nintendo, sticking to the traditional model. Microsoft are the outlier and the one taking all the risk to gain market share imo. Can I propose a-

@85Christian1 @SummerStorm23 @NinEverything ok cool sick totally swag yeezy that you think people are sensitive... but the majority of people, i would say especially mother fans, highly disagree... so if you're okay with it that's totally gamer pog... but for nintendo not to get in trouble... they would have to change it.

@NVIDIAGFN Cool idea. Just looks like I’m playing DayZ on a Nintendo 64 when I use the app. Even Left 4 Dead 2… Mouse input lag is horrendous

@lesbicyn @NightmareCV @HazzadorGamin When has Nintendo ever censored any new types of third party games lately? Most if not most third party games on the switch mature or fan service anime games is remotely not censored, otherwise you must be living in a wild fantasy where one thinks Nintendo still does censorship.

@wyrdautumn Nintendo could do better than pirates and amateur emulator devs, but they don't have any financial incentive right now or maybe ever, to so. I'm willing to bet most people who pay for Nintendo's **** service don't even know they can get games and emulators for free.

@Nbisbo As examples for ways Nintendo could improve service in particular: -Not make transferring data between consoles an awkward mess. -Not make cloud saves hit/miss affair. -Make classic games available via virtual console again. -Don't do limited runs on popular franchise remasters.

@Saphirrus @MariohazardX @AidenRS139 Agree biggest problem Wii U had (to me) is Nintendo utterly dropped the ball with marketing it properly.

@VgDiegazo @Mrlaguna8 @BeatemupsWood No issues with borrowing or franchises continuing story. The fact that Nintendo is capitalizing on the EXACT game and porting it forward or keeping it the same and finally bringing it out of its “virtual” vault is old hat. Overall more oldgames than new.

Xbox and Nintendo are letting this go with no problems so why are PlayStation like this? Also, this is very much an M rated game that the devs have been clear about from the start.

@HuTaoHandjob @BedManWriter @PandasAndVidya To be fair, ******** had it coming. Would basically brick other people’s consoles and ransom the fix. That’s Nintendo’s racket, dammit.

@WolfThunder29 @Proton_Jon The paint job would have to change because Nintendo doesn’t want to get in trouble with religious symbols in their work.

@c3nric I would personally take more issue with Nintendo for not releasing in PAL than some dedicated NA gamers campaigning for their release overseas. I don’t think these gamers were being deliberately exclusionary with their efforts.

@FooLKaleb @W_Le1kerm0ser @Kotaku Nintendo definitely isn’t sending him to jail for any of that over simply messing with their console which is like, the actual issue here. The fact that they’re willing to do that

@TheNintendoFeed I'd personally rank the Switch as my #3 Nintendo console behind the SNES and NES, but just ahead of the Wii. (not including pure handhelds) I do take issue with the hardware, though. Not just that it lacks power, but the fact that the internal battery will inevitably die. 😔

Nobody talks about how much crap software is on the E-Shop. It’s unbelievable. It’s not just a few hundred games. It’s 1000+ shovelware. Nintendo needs to fix this. Where’s the Nintendo seal of approval?

@razkaii Playstation has absolutely failed to give us a mascot. Long, long ago it was Crash. Nintendo has the king, Mario. Microsoft has Master Chief. Sony has no mascot.

@OrdinaryGamers The problem is we have virtue signaling millennials getting into power in the company right now and they just want to ruin everything. We're being treated like toddlers and they're hurting creative minds, while Nintendo is behaving like how I expected Sony to be.
