@whyyylmao @Knower85667267 ??? Yeah, I said Nintendo. They're the ones making sure everything is up to standard. It's their fault that the level has such a game breaking glitch.

@DdkSelby @WorldsXbox GP on console is already slowing down and PC is doing good but gamepass also just missed their goals for Gamepass by like 10 million even with billions of potential customers. Why has Nintendo's sub service already surpassed GP in subs in less time with less people to reach?

@miketysonsmouth No problem! Nintendo, while sometimes sucky as a company, are usually pretty helpful when you run into issues.

@ChrisBCrisps Oddly enough, never was an RPG guy myself, but Dragon Warrior is the one that got me interested. I remember getting a subscription to Nintendo Power along with the DW issue and a copy of the game and the first time I saw a blue slime I was like, okay, let's see...

@FuuTop1 I know the mainline ones sell themselves but jrpgs don't sell so well on xbox and with GP,we've seen less go for buying because they'd rather wait for it to go on the service. in Nintendo case the hardware limits are there so those titles won't run well on the platform

@AquillisArtz @Knower85667267 I’m not defending nintendo, nor am I defending the curious here, explain why I wasn’t banned when I did the glitch in the PB, lemme hear this explanation.

Finally bought a #NintendoSwitch. I'm surprised to learn there are zero Game Boy games on their Online service. It seems like a no-brainer. #Nintendo @NintendoAmerica

@CheWoomy I just hope Nintendo really recognizes that Salmon Run players have this kind of glitch as well, as a player who loves this game mode I find it somewhat annoying.

@WATER40K the issue i have with it is that there’s zero brand recognition in a CROSSOVER. the name super smash brothers just FEELS like a nintendo crossover and multiversus is just… something to do with the multiverse and fighting. there’s no way to know by the name that its WB

@Fred420170 @WorldsXbox Am I? what about Nintendo's sub service, it was started after Gamepass and already surpassed Gamepass? Gamepass has been here longer and has the potential to reach billions of people and it's a great deal apparently, of course GP's value is there but how is Nintendo doing better?

Nintendo maybe you shouldn't ask people to give feedback about customer service when you declined their refund request lol

Related: when Fortnite suprise launched on Switch, Nintendo's own customer service reps were caught completely off guard. Some said they were immediately inundated by instance of fraud and parents angry over kids' purchases.

As soon as Nintendo or Sony incorporate "Post Capture to X" functionality to their respective systems for some service that isn't F*cebook or In*tagram I'm outta here. That'll really be indicator as to which of these many platforms will win The Gamers.

@Dubug03 @DdkSelby Nintendo’s subscription service is similar to Xbox Live Gold. It's required for online play. It's tough comparing subscription services though across platforms because they are all pretty different. Each service has things that set it apart from every other service.

@Kiu_bee @Knower85667267 ???? No? It's Nintendo's fault for leaving a glitch that's easily exploitable in a game that's meant to be online. It's Nintendo's fault of slapping someone with a ban instead of actually fixing it. Don't blame the curious for something the company failed to fix.

@anjaperryyeet I feel like we should discuss this in vc later, because I’m still having trouble finding the difference between the way ai makes art and humans make art. Ex: My music borrows many of its ideas from fearofdark and Nintendo, but I’m under no obligation to credit them for my music.

@Kiu_bee @Knower85667267 If the bug didn't exist, Pufuu wouldn't have had the curiosity to try it. Ergo, you're blaming the curious. Again, I stated the match that Pufuu tried the glitch in WAS a private battle, yet Nintendo stamped down on them for it. You'r just repeating yourself.

People should not be defending others for abusing the Etail glitch in public matches. The bans are deserved. They are ruining the experience for others and Nintendo made the right move suspending their online access from the game.

@Dtbtheyakuzaman Upgraded, crossplay is here but... is it for all consoles like Xbox, PS4 and Nintendo Switch? NUH UH! NUH UH! Listen to me: It's only for Epic Games, which makes no sense! And you need to sign in to your Epic Games acc to play SRIV. Unbelievable.

@TWTHEREDDRAGON It’s why PS had no intent to ever give it games free via a subscription service, it just doesn’t cut it and I was very doubtful GamePass is making any profits, am I surprised no, not at all this is Xbox last opportunity otherwise it’s gone or becomes 3rd party for PS/Nintendo/PC
