@MondayMonkin Yeah they're particularly bad, but I think this has been a big problem at Nintendo since NSMB Wii. It feels like they only really care about the art styles of their really big budget games

@KHover4life @NXRazzalyn @NinEverything I do not know what you mean, the distribution of rom is illegal it does not matter if there is profit or not (and Nintendo at least in the United States only persecutes the distributors) and the emulators are totally legal with that there is no problem

@kibsquib48 I literally have never played splatoon on my own switch even though I like the games a lot Mainly cuz Nintendo be like “ah yes now pay the almost original retail price for a 3 year old game and then pay for our crappy subscription service as well”

@AnimeNoel drift is a bad thing with those Joy Cons, there is a simple fix with a piece of cardboard LOL I know it sounds dumb but it works. Or nintendo was fixing them for free if you send em in.

Just realized that I haven't received any new calendar wallpapers via Nintendo's Japanese Line account for ages. Did they stop the service?

@AceOfParts_ Because let's say that nintendo invest in creating a breath of the wild game, and let's say that they will price it around 50$. The problem is that they can't charge dollars on Roblox, so it would have to be Robux. 2/?

I sent in my Joycons in for repair a month ago and I still don’t have them back. They say that they’re returning them now, but the shipping company won’t give me any information on them. Nintendo please fix your controllers so I never need to do this again

@visoredavenger @felipefesantana The problem is Nintendo nor any company really cares what you have to say they care about what you buy. You have to vote with your wallet speaking out rarely does anything unfortunately, gaming wise.

Why in the holy **** is my youngest nephew always getting expensive electronics to destroy said electronic device half a year later. His destroy device count is 3 Nintendo 3ds, 1 joy-con controller, 1 Nintendo Switch (broken screen, liquid spill on it), and more things.

@jiwas72 Like I feel like SDI wouldn't even be an issue if Nintendo made better controllers so that's not Steve's problem at all

@SarukaiWolf wasn't that happening to people posting videos on yt with nintendo songs too? A random person would upload a comp of popular sound clips and then claim it as theirs. The copyright system is so broken. 😐

@SuperLuigiBroos @James_Batchelor I think the problem is that Nintendo of America called him Mario then DiC Entertainment made up the Brooklyn stuff for the cartoons, so none of the actual Japanese developers can seemingly agree because they never actually came up with an official backstory for him

@DreamcastGuy Uh what? Look this was a good review and it's fine to praise the PS5 version but at the expense of Switch and claiming actual LIES saying it "struggles" to run Nintendo Switch? I dunno about that one chief, I have had zero issues....it's literally a 2D top down game.

i've muted my thread about The Thing 'cause i'm unfairly unpacking on folks i know aren't my enemy, also i don't owe my ex an ounce more of my thoughts i've deleted the game and i'll just eat the cost since nintendo doesn't issue refunds

@SuperNGuy this looks like an issue related to the first batch of nintendo switches, mine instead cracked and the plastic broke you can check if the battery is swollen by just unscrewing the back and the shield

@nintendolife "DON'T BUY THIS OVERPRICED PORT, NINTENDO WON'T MAKE ANYTHING GOOD IF THIS CONTINUE!!!" says the idiots who literally caused this problem by buying everything that Nintendo makes without complaining, what a bunch of hypocrites 😑

@booredatwork I'd actually SPECIFICALLY like to see a Nintendo DS emulator running on this! From what I can see, the only issue would be shoulder buttons!

@Rizdraws I doubt it's the real Nintendo, probably just someone (or multiple people) abusing the copyright system and Twitter not actually looking into the issue.

@ZoruaBell Before you try anything, go into System Settings > Other Settings > Calibrate Circle pad. If that doesn't fix it, send it to Nintendo.

@SuperMarioT_YT Wait wasn't the problem that Nintendo wasn't letting Paper Mario go back? Or is Intelligent Systems muddled in too

@Kotaku Piracy is normally an issue around availability. If Nintendo want to stop rom piracy...they can just offer their own infrastructure for people legally access them. They could destroy rom distribution over night if they really wanted to. Nintendo hardly needs 2 million.

Chasing the Beam (Atari VCS) isn't as good as I Am Error (Nintendo NES). It's half the length, which is probably why, but technical details are limited and it just didn't engage me like I Am Error did. Still, it was interesting and it makes a good set-up for I Am Error.
