  @RiloeGaming nah bring back back the Sega vs Nintendo energy from the 90s, I love it when game studios have beef. It's only a problem if the ones throwing shade can't back it up.

  @SignoreBravo @Zuby_Tech The way the industry now has completely changed. The only platform that really sticks to its roots is Nintendo, who don't put their games anywhere else. The issue now is the financial viability with the rising development costs and the companies wanting to turn profits

  The GameCube controller for Nintendo Switch should work with Mario Kart World on the Switch 2, but with limitations. It supports basic racing, as seen with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, using buttons like A for acceleration and R for drifting. However, it lacks clickable analog sticks and extra shoulder buttons, which may restrict access to advanced features like off-roading or menu navigation. Nintendo confirms compatibility beyond GameCube Classics, but warns of potential issues. The Switch 2 supports the original Switch's GameCube adapter. For a full experience, consider a Pro Controller or Joy-Cons.

  China put DRM in Solar panels... the way to attack this is a blanket ban on any kind of remote-activated DRM. Not just China, but Nintendo, John Deere, all sorts of companies do this. It needs to stop as it's a national security issue.

  My biggest issue with Mario Kart costing $80 is that Nintendo games in general just don't come down in price with time like everything else does. It being an $80 game is a significantly more impactful situation than the outer worlds 2 simply because the other worlds 2 will likely be on sale for half price within a year or two and that's just not going to happen with Mario Kart. 5 years from now it's going to cost you a hell of a lot more to buy World Mario Kart World then it will outer worlds 2.

  @ev1dentLEE @Murillos14 @kirawontmiss Yeah? thats what i said? are you reading what i said? The problem is support console price hikes, game price hikes and further pushing the “you don’t own what you buy” narrative more by nintendo having full control to brick your switch anytime they want. shouldnt support that :/

  @Alfredo_Toons @makio_jroses I understand the difference, GameFreak codes while Nintendo publishes, not even accounting for Creatures Inc’s third of the ownership. The problem is that on average there’s a new set of pokemon mainline games every 3 years, not accounting everything else like sidegames & (1/2)

  @L337L4K3 I just think Xbox clearly doesn’t care about exclusivity and is going to put their games everywhere. Gears going to ps made that even more clear to me. Problem is I don’t see Nintendo or ps doing that to Xbox lol

  It is, you’re giving me an argument with no way to prove it. You just saying it doesn’t mean it’s true. I can’t find a single example that proves Sony and Xbox don’t do the same thing. Also I would argue even if it was a problem with only Nintendo, which it’s not, they just filled over 3 million console preorders on day 1. The most video game consoles sold on day 1 of all time. Thats the opposite of scarcity. Also they sold twice as many console as the ps5. Opposite of scarcity. I’m talking about consoles only right now.

  @coyotejack343 Nintendo is known for letting devs take time. Mario Wonder had no deadline and metroid prime 4 has been in development for 8 years because it was originally not good enough. The Pokemon problem comes from how Gamefreak and TPC operate together

  @jonathancigaret @iiWhiskey @Nick_Marseil well playstation isn’t trying to be a streaming service. They still want to sell consoles and console exclusives is how they do that, same as nintendo

  It's funny how life works. Nintendo saved gaming back in 85 after the 83 gaming crash. Now, nintendo may be the reason it crashes again. Crazy!

  There are only a few things I agree with Nintendo on but most of everything they have done...I do not support. All I can be thankful for is that they made online subscriptions cheaper than Xbox and even PlayStation. At least more affordable. I don't like that they made their online service a subscription based thing just to follow along with PlayStation and Xbox but I am happy that they are cheaper for me to afford.
