@TheRider2345 @LandonTapscott @G27Status You're okay with Sony keeping Street Fighter from Xbox and Nintendo fans, bit let Microsoft buy a company who makes a game you like on the Playstation and you get upset. You can play all future games on PC. The games on Playstation are staying there. This is a you problem, sorry.

@Zacmortar Hey, at least now you know. Supposedly Nintendo tried to localize it, but the problematic elements were just too much to attempt to fix.

@JohnGame94 @CoolLad_Stephen @PushDustIn It's still very possible for Crash to get in. Nintendo still acknowledges Activision so there isn't really any reason Crash could not be added as a fighter.

Overwatch is pretty fun on Nintendo Switch. my only issue is that i should turn aim assist off, because i find it moves the camera by itself on me to point the crosshair at the bad guy.

@NintendoAmerica $60 for a zelda game isnt an issue. Nintendo spewing **** RPGs just so they can give an anime character huge tits in a tiny costume is an issue

@Charzilla__ @NintendoAmerica So the problem is that the remaster does nothing new except change the resolution so that it meets the bare minimum for modern games

Great to see that Niantic is just as ****** as Nintendo when it comes to anything regarding internet connections. Lost out on a legendary I remoted in to because the lag was SO BAD that my pokeball just didn't respond to my finger interactions half of the time...

@CB4Smash @ExpandDong15 Nintendo has a tendency to surprise everyone for the most part So yeah I wouldn't be acting like crash is already in just because he has a high chance We can be hopeful but not preparing Either way we get a new character and that's good enough for me

@AndElectriz @NintendoAmerica Nah, porting old games is not a problem, but it seems like they barely updated things and it'll cost even more than it did on the Wii There's no way this is worth 60$, and I'm in the minority of people who actually likes Skyward Sword

@onebox19 @Sonic_Kombat @NintendoAmerica You’re just mad that you didn’t Crash and you got a sword characters(which there isn’t that much there are literally 18 out of the almost 80 characters) and you guys are spoiled brats

@NintendoAmerica Guys, if you think it's too expensive, I feel like you weren't gonna buy it anyway unless it was way too cheap. It was sold at the same price new, I don't really see the problem with that. Even if it is an old game, it's still a modern game, that new players can enjoy.

@snufftbunz @Don_Qvd0 @JeremyPenter I mean that's not much of a problem for me since most games I buy at launch are from Sony and Nintendo.

@SuperMarioOOC85 I already found the error. In the game Mario jumps with A and Luigi with B. Then on the Japanese cover, due to a failure by Nintendo, inverted the buttons.

@yionuk Probably not, but the Switch’s biggest attraction isn’t its portability, it’s its exclusive library. If Nintendo would release a traditional home console with a decent online service, 3rd party AAA titles, and no gimmicks, it would probably appeal to more people. In my opinion.

@DoctorMemeMan pro controllers are nintendo official while 3rd parties aren’t made by nintendo so if you have an issue with it, you either gotta talk to the controllers company to fix it or buy a new one

@Ryan20615 @Lucranic_ @NintendoAmerica Not a problem whatsoever if you don't care about dads credit card getting unnecessarily 30 to 40 dollars more for a wii port.

@TAHK0 why not? they're all valid complaints. people feel scammed out of the game. the new features are fundamentally broken, villagers suck now, and nintendo has gone against their promise to provide additional content. we don't even have half the **** from previous games.

Hey @NintendoAmerica instead of banning ppl for disconnecting their switches when playing laggy games online, how about you just make a good online? if you don't have anyone to do it employ someone like Fizzy to do it! It really isn't the players problem!
