  • LukeNorth95 LukeNorth (@LukeNorth95) reported

    @Andrik_ssb They would be so dumb to do so at this point. If they fix any of falcons things that need fixing, he's top tier. That being said, DO IT NINTENDO

  • ChowderGumball TazoGumballChowder (backup acc) (@ChowderGumball) reported

    @NintenZ @pelican_food It’s basically the same problem with the Marvel vs. games too. Capcom for some reason has never bothered to rerelease them or even have them set foot on a Nintendo console.

  • BULLETCOCK j (@BULLETCOCK) reported

    nintendo doesn’t even give a **** about their online service

  • Chris50016 Chris500 (@Chris50016) reported

    @RaymanForSmash @RichieGonzo21 To be fair Xenoblade and FE are Nintendo properties so they are gonna get some prioritization over other characters/series. Also the request for Dante came in too late. I wouldn't be surprised if the same happened to Crash given the request only came in after the insane trilogy.

  • souljasleet Philosopher 🔜Mechacon (@souljasleet) reported

    No way Nintendo going to put EWGF in the game and not fix the netcode right ?

  • haveyouseen01 HaveYouSeen (@haveyouseen01) reported

    @Aclysmic_RBLX @Andrew_Reiner Nintendo has haptic joy cons. And controller. The one difference is just the triggers and that’s my issue. The triggers alone isn’t warranted of copying they are hit or miss. The haptics are great on Nintendo and Sony’s controllers.

  • Selame23 Selame Yohannes (@Selame23) reported

    @Andrew_Reiner Yes especially Nintendo. They need to fix the triggers on the pro controller.

  • BoffBoff88 Boff (@BoffBoff88) reported

    @KloudTheMerc @brianycus @AJAX_HQ My problem with Master Chief is that he's an Xbox exclusive. As far as I know, everybody else in Smash has had at least one game in their series on a Nintendo console. I'm sure that's the only reason Steve and Banjo and Kazooie got in, even though Microsoft owns them.

  • TheSimZone #SimulationONLY (@TheSimZone) reported

    @KirkRooster Gamepass is a good service, but the only thing that's going to move boxes enough to compete with Sony and Nintendo are exclusive games that can't be played on anything else, not being the most powerful console, just having the games the most people want to play.

  • patricknotirl patrick (@patricknotirl) reported

    nintendo wii broken

  • TheMalSid Myra O' Connor (@TheMalSid) reported

    @akayyy_lol @bullognia @NintendoAmerica Actually that's different because they made 3 games cost 60 for Mario... The problem everyone CLAIMS to have with the game is that one old game is getting the same price as 3 combined

  • morninmarmalade 🌺C🌸 (@morninmarmalade) reported

    One of my animal Crossing joycons is broken 😔 the B button won't work and my boyfriend spent all day trying to fix it. I wish Nintendo sold them separately outside of Japan 😭

  • TheDJTC .∴・:*:・Camilla・:*:・。 (@TheDJTC) reported

    What I need is for Smash Bros. to be on sale for $30 and some friends to chuck bob-ombs at for 15 hours and for Nintendo to fix online.

  • WiseMindedBoss Chellssss (@WiseMindedBoss) reported

    My sons Nintendo is not working & he keeps going on & on about it 🥴

  • DCandMarvelGirl DC & Marvel Girl (@DCandMarvelGirl) reported

    @FortniteINTEL Nintendo needs to fix this with their next console

  • Hex_Princess rat girl (@Hex_Princess) reported

    @thebestiespod Which sport would y’all like to see Nintendo fix next?

  • NanoLeon3000 Nanoboy33 (@NanoLeon3000) reported

    @Chomper_NG Nintendo was really lazy with Mario's anniversary. Sonic has so much content and crossovers and Crash even though they didn't give him anything.. well we got Crash on the Run this year, they've been posting Crash suit guy doing all sorts of activities which is kinda wholesome tbh

  • redtutel Xico Blanco (@redtutel) reported

    @ErickADub Using Rare's platformers to target the E-rated market Xbox lacks...I feel like it would face the issue of targeting the people who grew up with the Nintendo 64 instead, which is a group that would rather wait for a Switch release than buy it on Xbox

  • BamRossyBam Ross (@BamRossyBam) reported

    @aaaaaaaabla_ Yeah. No performance issues or delay issues for anyone on ps4 in Japan. It's worse that tons of people have the actual copies early. Yet people who are faithful and believe in these companies are shown nothing but disappointment. @NintendoUK @NISAmerica

  • _berwyn_ berwyn 🍁 (@_berwyn_) reported

    @olivebrinker Boring prediction is another Nintendo sword person My dream take would be a poster character for a major publisher, Matter Chief, Marcus Fenix, Spyro, Crash, Sly Cooper, maybe Jak & Daxter, Ratchet/Rivet, something truly wild

  • moonladyfgc LNR | Yue (@moonladyfgc) reported

    @SlamJamicus Honestly? It makes a lot of sense, for 2 reasons: 1. Nintendo has been giving characters BROKEN moves this FP, and tekkens amount of moves leaves more room for that 2. Tekken (or at the very least 7) is a VERY "gimmicky" game. If you don't know every little trick every char-

  • BamRossyBam Ross (@BamRossyBam) reported

    @aaaaaaaabla_ @NintendoUK @NISAmerica That is disgraceful. Never had this problem on the damn ps4. I really hate the Switch. Terrible from both companies.

  • DylanIlvento Dylan Ilvento (@DylanIlvento) reported

    @olivebrinker Yeah, at this point I'm expecting either a Pokémon or some other Nintendo first party. Who would I like? Crash Bandicoot would be cool.

  • zer0saber 10sts0u1 (@zer0saber) reported

    @Zuby_Tech @HardcoreMetal89 He also took apart the dual sense and tried to make seem like the design was flawed and he really went hard on the cmos battery thing. He spends more time encouraging Nintendo fans to fix their own joycons than he does calling for Nintendo accountability for selling them broken.

  • Markx491 Markx (@Markx491) reported

    @RaymanFacts @META_KNlGHT @Vet_093 Crash and Sora are getting Miid if anything at all. But Master Chief I'm sorry but he'll be lucky to even get a spirit. Dude has nothing to do with Nintendo.

  • distanttravcls 𝐋𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞 (@distanttravcls) reported

    || my nintendo switch is FINALLY updating stuff after a week of it encountering the same error

  • RapidPilot2 RapidPilot // #Nintendo (@RapidPilot2) reported

    @SteveAlyas2024 @NintendoAmerica Sonic colors is dogshit as it is, a port won’t fix it

  • Cory_Boehm Cory Boehm (@Cory_Boehm) reported

    @BiocopterO @NintyPrime And you are just a clout chasing troll. Before the Switch was even announced it could have been predicted that Nintendo would release a new console in 2021-2023. Broad range but the Switch came earlier than was expected due to issues with the Wii U.

  • Quartzer10 Quartzer (@Quartzer10) reported

    @DanteThePrivy @NintendoAmerica I guess Crash doesn't exsist anymore

  • IncubusMarble incubus_marble🔞 (@IncubusMarble) reported

    @Soulslayer434 @Nintendeal Of theses list there is a small chance for Sora or Crash. My money is on neither of them but a Nintendo rep. Will not be Mario, Kirby, Metroid, F-Zero, Star Fox, DK, Animal Crossing, or Fire Emblem Probably gonna be a pokemon rep, Cinderace or Rillaboom
