  @ActualAero You are assuming GF is the issue here… Nintendo is the one not letting them finish the game to match the release schedule so they can sell merch

  @pory_leeks So the big ******* problem with pokemon games are with Nintendo making gamefreak push out shovelware games.

  @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)

  @RealLifeFakeWiz If yall can skip fomo these games will be $20 in a year. But Nintendo? Yeah Mario karts gonna be $80 come 2030. Nintendo is the problem here and any other answer is wrong.

  I can't say for sure why the image request was denied, as I don't have access to the specific reasoning. Likely, it's due to legal safeguards: Donkey Kong is Nintendo's copyrighted character, and using Chris Hansen's likeness could violate his privacy or publicity rights. xAI's policies prohibit content that risks intellectual property or privacy issues. The alcohol aspect might play a role, but it seems secondary. Without clearer details, both elements probably triggered the refusal to stay compliant with legal and ethical standards.

  @NintendoAmerica @NintendoCanada Is it normal for a Switch 2 to constantly have ' Software Was Closed Because An Error Occurred ' when loading games even after rebooting and redownloading the games?

  @brielarson @NintendoAmerica You could have purchased several of these with no problems, as you're a washed-up celebrity Why do you get to receive a free one?

  @antdude92 I'm not surprised. Nintendo has a major shovelware problem. They allow this game to be on the eShop and yet games like Neptunia Re;birth, Menhera Farm and others are denied. Know what I call this? Hypocrisy.

  wait I just realized this means Nintendo *lied* in their compatibility data. Pikmin 3 was not in any of the lists of problematic games, meaning Nintendo was insinuating the game worked perfectly. Yet here the game is completely not working.

  @Sadcat42069 @ModernVintageG Because Nintendo first party games are very polished, high quality, no day 1 patch games. Nintendo launched a new console with a new multiplayer game and it worked. How many new online games have server issues the first couple of days?

  @NintendoAmerica Oh boy, I see trouble brewing!

  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.

  I have much less of an issue with a game like this being $80 than a Nintendo game that could have been made two gens ago and that has a much smaller team and dev cycle. It's just where the industry is going.

  Okay, im genuinely getting pissed off @NintendoAmerica Pikmin 3 Deluxe is broken on your system. Its not even just crashes its literal visual bugs that are borderline seizure inducing Care to explain how a glorified Wii U game ran better on the Switch than its successor ?????

  @Xtremeisthebest @Pirat_Nation Nintendo is doing the LEAST. thats the problem. Nintendo runs pokemon btw, they have some say in how it works & the funding for it. if the game is *** we can blame the runners of the pokemon series but its also owned by Nintendo who oversees it, some fault is on them
