Get the falcon guy that sent Nintendo a bible of falcon problems and got falcon buffed to the abomination he is now to write a formal complaint about Steve

@Usernamemustbea @IGN Idk man, maybe the actual problem is that the F-Zero franchise was part of the declining Nintendo console era, which made more niche franchises sell less? I mean. Metroid got a revival. We even see games like Fast Racing Neo and Redout gaining popularity

@AndrewAlerts More than likely there was a problem with the display & the Nintendo Retail Rep/Brand Ambassador for that area had to take it down to either fix it or replace it with a newer one.

I wish Nintendo would have proper DLC waves for their Expansion Pak service. Add at least 3 games' DLC content to NSO every two months or so, or at least speed up and add better retro games to the library. Feels like we get two games every four months.

@NintendoVS @NintendoAmerica Good lord could you update Mario Maker 2?!! Get rid of the lag and the horrible multiplayer level please!!

Also Mario galaxy is impossible to play in handheld for me but that's less an issue with the game itself and more it wasn't designed for the switch in mind and Nintendo did the most low effort ports imaginable for the all stars collection

@breakingmorb @NintendoAmerica This is Nintendo's twitter account. I can post whatever I want under their tweets. It just so happened that this post was the most recent one after everyone was having trouble, so the majority of people who were talking **** to Nintendo were doing so under this tweet.

@NintendoUK I shall give it a go & see if I can get past the Rabbids being in it as that's what puts me off which I know is my problem & I'm probably missing out on good game but there we go 🙃🙃🙃

@EmilyKHoffmann I was indeed amazing at Tetris, the original Nintendo game. My lack of depth perception (just one of my vision problems) means I can't translate that to "playing tetris" with packing a truck or something. It's frustrating.

@Spoz020 I disagree with the subscription service part because that makes it immediately less accessible to casuals But that part about f2p sounds like a good route to go for any game while the PC port thing sounds like a bump up in accessibility I can't imagine nintendo doing that

If I ever renewed my Nintendo Switch online service, who would be down facing off against me in NES Ice Hockey?

3/3 Manage to have 2 DIAMONDS a good portion of the set (which is to put it lightly, a little broken), Something needs to change. I do not wish to ban Steve. I really really like steve in smash. But i please implore Nintendo to nerf them. This is too much.

@bekiyan @shinobuandpooh The problem here in mexico isn't the popularity of Nintendo, it is pretty popular actually. The problem is the price, since Nintendo don't distribute officially, the only company who bring them, sell it overpriced. Here the series x is almost same expensive as the switch oled

@masked_bastard I might actually have that issue of Nintendo Power. 🤔 Surf Wisely.

@Digivolvar To be honest, i kind have trouble to understand why Nintendo even charges extra for online-play. Maybe i misunderstood something, but it feels like reselling your own internet-access for something that is free on other platforms...

Also it's wild to realize that toby was in talks with Nintendo just 5 months after first releasing undertale, and it only got canned because of console problems. Like, you cannot tell me this man and Nintendo don't magically get along

@realShadoroth @CubeBc Nintendo is pushing MLB: The Show harder than most expected, so Sony isn’t the problem here. It comes down to how Nintendo treats tournaments regarding sponsorships & how that impacts each major. Unlike most, EVO seems to need the publisher as a sponsor to host their game(s).

@xbox_screens @shinobuandpooh that's exactly the problem, Nintendo has no official distribution here, all distribution falls into one company, and it takes advantage of its position and increases up to two or three times its original value.

GOML ran 1.03 mod and yet we still: -had a crash mid top 8 -had no neutral start spawns -had no slippi mirroring for higher quality broadcast if they had a spoke with a nintendo rep that would mean: -UCF is ok -remapping is ok -freezing stadium is ok this **** arbitrary as hell

With Dragalia Lost ending service this month, I'm wondering if we'll ever get a Dragalia game for Nintendo consoles. It had so much potential.

@Touyarokii I’ve actually learned this quite early on because I had one of those strategy guide books for Pokémon D&P! The Nintendo mic wasn’t a great thing back then though so voices translated into a very broken sound as a result lmao

Last show I went to the band could sense my Nintendo 3DS is irreversibly broken and stopped midsong to single me out. said it made no sense for me to attend any social function if I couldn't make use of StreetPass nor add anyone to my friends list. I felt alone and ashamed.

@shitpostbotmax @ChromiumDev Exactly, the two are completely separate issues There's good optimisation for Nintendo Then a complaint about bad compilers and dev tools Absolutely no relation except "code"
