@sulamatraore Nintendo has always cornered the handheld market. The steam deck can thrive because it caters to a diff audience who wants a wider selection. The problems that will hold the steam deck back 1.) It’s clunky huge 2.) Mods and Emulators are not simple 3.) Walled garden with steam.

@LarryBundyJr Mario Kart wishes it relied on skill more than items, oh who am I kidding? Nintendo doesn't care... But at least we have Crash Team Racing

@MizuhanaOVT @Xeraphios Gamefreak/Nintendo should issue out refunds. It's bullshit I paid $60 for a game that for some unbeknownst reason crashes on my recently bought OLED Switch. I shouldn't have to wait after a year of patches for a stable game

@DdBlackjack It is a Nintendo exclusive game, yes, but it is not licensed by Nintendo, which means that Nintendo had no rights to the game with what the developers do they just had to follow the rules so that there was no trouble. Splatoon, on the other hand, fully belongs to Nintendo acually

@CaelanAirgetlam @trforceprincess I hope they fix the armor clipping in Tears of the Kingdom cause I remember nintendo wanting some software which makes it easier to stop clipping so maybe they’ll implement it in TOTK? I think they delayed it to make sure it doesn’t look jank like the first game in that regard

@apple_sauce_03 @PKSparkxx @EddyZacianLand True. The console's power was never the problem for Pokémon (or for Nintendo in general, if you ask me). The problem with Pokémon was the lack of time, or to be more precise, the negligence of not delaying it. At least they are great games despite that.

@apple_sauce_03 @PKSparkxx @EddyZacianLand I agree, SV is more of a Pokemon company issue than the limitations of the Switch. I would love for an upgrade in the near future tho and see how other developers push the limits of some stronger Nintendo hardware

@kt_domino @HugoThePinkCat I'd just get a steamdeck or whatever it's called, the broken joycons and Nintendo's refusal to fix the issue kind of put me off. And there aren't many Nintendo exclusive titles I'm interested in.

People that own a Nintendo switch (or understand technical engineering)! Does your console ever start making fan noises when you turn it on? The fan noise stopped but I am wondering if it's indicative of an actual issue or is just a normal thing that happens 😭

@ItsBlueDJ @PearlWoomy The issue is a bit past now, but my stance overall is this: Nintendo's matchmaking is especially bad in 3 - so if you do come across a newer player because of it, you don't need to suddenly start tryhard-ing because you want to feel some level of superiority in the fish game.

@PersonaSpeaks I predict the "community" will conveniently forget everyone at PS said Service/MP games may be the sole Day One exemption for PC and declare that Factions releasing there means that will be the policy going forward. I also predict Nintendo will begin to tease new hardware.

@WIFEMODER For the people that did experience bugs did you have them on multi-player? That was probably the reason you had your glitches because nintendo can't make a good online service
