@anarchyKaos666 @sonicpulsar @HipHopGeek86 Nintendo owns the IP but I don't think there would be an issue

@elitherealist1 @XcloudTimdog When did I say I don't like Nintendo? They gave my special needs child (18 this year) the enjoyment of playing games and I will be forever grateful. If people stating facts is too much, that is not my problem.

Nintendo misspelled "monkey" when they invented Donkey Kong. With Biden in the White House there is nobody left to force them to fix it

@Dark_Wizzy_ I personally liked the mode. honestly there are several Nintendo licensed games with far worse single player offerings imo. I took particular issue with tennis aces and and Super Mario Party as at least WoL had options and fun gimmicks while Aces and MP were linear, dull, and bad

@JeffK424 That’s where the issue comes in. Going forward new 3rd party ports wont run on switch, but they don’t wanna cut the switch’s life cycle short when it’s selling at record paces. But the lack of future 3rd party could hurt switch if Nintendo doesn’t have a lot of future 1st party.

Cyber shadow is being released on Xbox game pass today and I’m pretty excited about it. One of the top games that got my attention when it was showcased during the Nintendo indies direct. (It sounds weird when I say that, seeing it on Nintendo but playing it on an Xbox service).

@Valanway_Slash Thats litterally what their problem is? The anti rise people want it to be like world on other consoles even tho the series is primarily a nintendo rooted console, world was even made with a completely diff dev team and very little og creators input

@The_Great_Green Psst is sell your extra Nintendo’s and buy a used one and fix the old one but there’s probably no point I. Buying a new one when you can repair one for $75

@RandomName256 @MellyManLegends @sonic_hedgehog The problem with the story is the forced bad jokes, in DS it is better, the level design is not terrible, but it is a bit more like a Mario, using cubes as platforms (because Colors is focused on Nintendo players)

@tinivule @tannermccarrel1 @NintendoAmerica They don't look remotely that old. I'd never consider Snap as cutting edge. Even if it is reusing models, they are still high quality. The models have never been an issue. It's been the animation of said models that lacked in the main titles. The ground texture is fine

@forestillusion Do you happen to know of any archive project for the defunct Nintendo Video service or have those videos been lost to time

@keithofsaturn The problem is that most of the smash community didn’t think of that. Tbh it never seemed like they were doing a good thing. They insulted Nintendo fans and were basically spamming every Nintendo tweet(even if it had nothing to do with smash)

@NintendoAmerica Will there be anything missable or could I freely revisit any area? (Also, could the assist block permanently ruin my shiny stars, or did that stop being an issue with 3D Land?)

@Dezuuu This one's on the Nintendo Switch online service. You can play a select few titles of both NES and SNES for free if you got a subscription.
