(@gutsredux) reported
@MegabyteMii @animebarbies I'm not entirely sure. It could have been several. I just remember opening those little notifications nintendo would send out every so often on the 3ds and reading how it was shutting down because it was found that children were sending inappropriate things through the service

@NoWordCount We have 3 Switches in my house..2 we got from GameStop both experienced drift within a couple weeks of buying. GameStop swapped the Joy Cons for free. Then about 3-6 months later happened again so have just replaced with non Nintendo brand joy cons off Amazon no issues with those

Fun fact for those of you celebrating #MarioDay; Nintendo had originally had it so that Mario’s last name was Eseiville, but there was a translation error that put his last name as Mario. Idk about all of you, but I personally prefer Mario Eseiville quite a bit more.

@BriceNicholXIII @SobbleAj @Mevans2703 That's not a problem with the game though that's a problem with censorship Nintendo didn't choose to do that themselves

@CB4Smash Nintendo doesn't want crash in smash bros ever, Activision doesn't deserve to have any of their IPs to be represented in smash ever and crash would not have a new and unique moveset or mechanic at all

@NintendoAmerica we need a better system for rage quitting vs disconnected due to connection issues. Won 13 straight smash ultimate games and half of them people quit on me and I missed out on some crazy GSP

@SenninSage It makes no sense to, to say that and service the Playstation and Nintendo communities. Especially as GhostWire and Death Loop aren't coming to Xbox fans this year..

@THEREALRTU What about some Playstation exclusives, or are they just alienating customers too? Same with Nintendo, are they alienating other customers with games like Bayonetta 3? This is healthy business. Want the game, buy the console or in Microsofts vision, buy the service.

So I have a little side thing where I buy broken Nintendo consoles (DS Lites usually) to repair - except the two I've bought in the last 2 weeks work perfectly already. Bingo! :)

(@Snazithus) reported
@coolmongreldog It's Nintendo's "red ring". There has to be some accountant somewhere who has figured out that it's cheaper to refurbish than actually fix the problem and admit fault (which would invalidate a lot of the lawsuits they've faced over this I imagine)

(@Terry_S_S) reported
@CB4Smash crash is never getting into smash, Nintendo doesn't want crash or any Activision|Blizzard IPs represented in smash, Nintendo refuses to acknowledge Activision|Blizzard at all, Activision|Blizzard doesn't deserve to have any of their IPs represented in smash ever

Neko BEEP/BOP/BOOP
(@Darth_Neko) reported
@alex_moukala Part of the issue is things are too safe. Pokemon has no competition as monster catcher game and it doesn't help that Nintendo and the fans shut down anything that resembles that. Digimon is an entirely different concept, but it doesn't stop people comparing it to Pokemon.

@PawnSacrifices The only problem is, MS won't do this unless Sony or Nintendo allow for Gamepass to be on their respected ecosystem. Highly doubt this will happen. Keep in mind, while the fanboys think there is a war between Xbox and PS5, MS's real system is Gamepass.

@Nintendeal Nintendo's size estimates are weird I downloaded it and its around 19 gigs The eshop page said something about an estimated 30 gigs Same issue I had with Bioshock, their estimates are so much higher for some reason.

@TheSilversky545 If you don't care, then I don't see what the issue is? There's very little that is obvious about it? Xbox need exclusives, they've bought studios to do so. Sony and Nintendo have exclusives that nobody is calling for multi-plat on so I really don't see a difference.

I’m curious the reason behind it and hoping a developer can answer if it’s a player base issue or that they don’t agree with me? I’m not asking for myself either I’m not going to play much Nintendo because it would make me worse at the game learning to compensate for input delay

@sir_eeee Licensing Issues or Licensing Rights? Nintendo tends to be Super Bureaucratic with them. They make billions FWIW and use part of those billions for merchandising (basically they can time such deals with “x” Company for “y” Product for “z” Amount of time).

@thicc_stick_boi I love BOTW, but there are issues with it that people just refuse to acknowledge bEcAuSe iT's nInTeNdO. Nintendo is capable of making great games, they're just lazy and would rather sell you Skyward Sword for $60

The problem is where is the fab capacity to manufacture it! That and the fact that nintendo always skimp on hardware, it's hard to believe they'd stump up the cash to put ampere in their new console.
