@RenoNY @snackcurator @rishissb Thank you. I was losing my mind that he kept bringing up a "legal issue" without elaborating. I figured it could be streaming the game without approval, but couldn't figure out who the mystery non-Nintendo super important entity was supposed to be.

@Aarow_16 @JezCorden Has nothing to do with pokemon thats gamefreak issue, if it was Nintendo they wouldnt allow it to release it that state look at Metro Prime 4 had to redo it and Zelda was delayed as well but the pokemon company needed their game for the holidays

@7upSkrasnic @SmashWorldTour I think the solid implication that Alan somehow knew that SWT was going to be shafted by Nintendo is enough to justify addressing both issues

@BradSmi @Nintendo @Sony Sir, as a consumer for both Xbox and PS, I’m fine with the way things are now. If Nintendo wanted COD on their platform, I’m sure the market leader would of done so decades ago with no problems. Nice PR stunt though.

@charlieINTEL Probably by allowing their streaming service to be used on nintendo?

@iJezabella @IGN They might bring a version of COD Mobile to Switch first and then release a full version on Nintendo's next system which would give Nintendo a reason to flex some muscle and actually make a better more capable mid-cycle hardware update and revamp online service.

@PCGamin07922210 I don't think so xcloud will exist in Nintendo because that's an xbox service. I think it will be done in a different way

@7upSkrasnic @basil2396 @SmashWorldTour -mary to get Nintendo to issue a license. I think Alan played enough of a role in this whole debacle to include him in the original statement, but I get where you're coming from

@Caitemis @petergfast @KevinTemmer I still don’t understand what the problem is. Even if it’s just using similar art styles, a human can do the same thing, if I were to draw fan art of Mario in the same art style as Nintendo that doesn’t necessarily make it stealing. 1/2

@DaleHun427 @Lockstin Nintendo has the Pokemon games, but GameFreak makes them, and while not as buggy as S/V, I remember plenty of people complaining about the lack of polish in every game since Sw/Sh, and some bugs in BD/SP. Plus there's obvious problems, like cutting the National Dex.

@16bitnostalgia Nintendo Power's February 1991 issue had a code for the game to start off with ten lives that didn't work. It turns out that they put the code in wrong.

@XboxP3 @Nintendo @ATVI_AB not a good thing for call of duty fans. having to make a another version of the game. they cant fix the versions they make now

Is an odd thing to do, even for Nintendo. Seems they were immediately demoralized and just threw in the towel so they could get to trying to fix the mess as quickly as they could assuming they were right and couldn’t have the finals. *also meant to say sought not seemed earlier

@XboxP3 @Nintendo @ATVI_AB As a Nintendo user I preffer 10 years of Spyro and Crash Bandicoot. This is a strategy for the regulators to accept the purchase, but it does not benefit anyone but you, COD for PS, the rest for Nintendo.

@alicegoldfuss Also remember Nintendo is the biggest crybaby in copyright-related issues Let's give 'em some red plumbers then

@GuppyTheSloth @InnevitableVTY @Mootmonthly It's less time constrains and more the fact that the Switch hardware is far outdated. People who play these games in Steam Deck through an emulator have experienced none of the issues from what I understand, not even frame drops. Nintendo needs a brand new, more powerful Switch

@XboxP3 @Nintendo @ATVI_AB Lol you're not just suddenly going to make Nintendo hardware good enough to run CoD. It'll be a broken mess just like all of Xbox's games

@Mishakeet @Technicals_ Well the thing is the event wasn't cancelled they were just told they didn't get the license until they fixed what Nintendo wanted them to fix.

(@7upSkrasnic) reported
@basil2396 @SmashWorldTour He's only a major part of the debacle because SWT mentioned him in their statement. Nintendo cancelling SWT and Alan undermining the SWT are both ****** things, but they are separate issues that could've been addressed separately.

I'm also curious how Activision developers feel about releasing games on Nintendo platforms. I'm sure there is a good reason why mainline COD and Warzone aren't on Switch (probably performance issues).

(@MidgarMac66) reported
@BradSmi @Nintendo @Sony Question: You do realise there are more franchises that Activision own other than COD right. Would this deal also apply to franchises like Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Tony Hawk, etc... All I ever see is COD this and COD that. Will we still see those franchises on other platforms?

(@Bubba_GeekHero) reported
@elizibar Regardless, my biggest problem now is that I don't have any faith that Microsoft is going to do any better than Activision did in the past when it comes to Nintendo. And the fact that they are projecting 10 years out is a bit of a worry as well. It tells me they don't really care

@ABlutmond I actually used to play black ops 2 on my wii u a lot haha it was an interesting port , got to hear the infamous wii crash screech and see a couple of debug stack traces they left in but it was pretty usable. my heart whoever will always be with the nintendo DS CODs 😤

@MetroidFREAK21 @m_rizky_gumilar Tbh I doubt it would be a huge problem. Even if Nintendo played the ******* and would have wanted the mission to be removed they could have just removed that one mission and done. Who cares. Some countries banned the scene anyway.

At the end of the day, if the Panda cup never existed, I think we'd all be fine right now. You sold a service to Nintendo that you couldn't deliver on, which explains why it took them 6 months through the year to announce their circuit.
