I've Never Seen...
(@Never_Seen_Trek) reported
@TheRedDouglas It's less a rights issue and more just a lack of will I think. Technically it doesn't need to be Nintendo, I just named them cause they published for them, but really it's Capcoms laziness and Level-5 making it up as they go along that's doing it

@MyNintendoNews If it weren’t for all of the issues that have popped up both in the Smash community and EVO management in the past couple years, I’d be more specifically mad at Nintendo. And I still am a bit over this. But…I can also understand, to a point, them wanting to stay away from this.

@BeatemupsWood That’s impossible. I just got out of my DeLorean and Nintendo is going to be sold to Sony for 103 billion in 2027. Nintendo will have problems with the next switch and needs to recall all 22 million sold.

@FeyriDey At least that's a free fix through Nintendo?

@wiedo @InvaderTAK @Voultar I’m super sensitive to things like lag and poor frame pacing/major dips in frame rate. I think this system is the most lazy nInTeNdO has ever been.

@THEwickedOne77 @meyerpark @XcloudTimdog Foreal!! Timdog was talking bout broken games and he brought Evo in this just to slander Sony! And the funny thing is Nintendo been doing **** like this to the Smash community! But it’s Sony fault 😭😭😭😭

@VikingSizeGamer Honestly no. I mean just look at how bad it got before they took a year off. They released a Switch copy so bad Switch owners kicked WWE off Nintendo Switch. The very next year they launched broken on all systems. N they still let em make another game. They arent goin’ nowhere

I don't like feeling restricted and uneasy because Nintendo has a piracy worrying problem. I understand preventing piracy but this is too much for me.

@IGN So meaning a catered service with only xbox 1st party games on it? Lol won't be long until Sony and Nintendo do the same thing and bam Phil found a way that Microsoft no longer has to manufacture Xbox consoles for the public(they will still make Xbox xcloud servers)

(@ArtofNP) reported
This also goes to show how murderous it is to get a good grade on early nintendo powers. This issue was pulled from a subscription gift set. It was literally sealed in a hard plastic box, then opened by me and sent in... 9.0, lol

Gerwalk it out Has Supply Chain Issues
(@RidicBowe) reported
@BobbyTomio Nintendo actually did, since they were the shipper. They made me whole so their customer service is great, but UPS... SMH

@thegameawards The obvious answer is Monolith Soft IMO. Even when they’re not working on Xenoblade (which is a testament to their own skill), they are usually working on most of Nintendo’s heavy hitters. Modern day Nintendo simply wouldn’t be the same without them.

Retro Zero
(@4EverLostInTime) reported
I am surprised there are not other people having a problem with this. What is next? Them monitoring and spy on me and what I do? What if I can not pay my internet bill? I won't be able to play my digital copies of my games I bought. This is going to be my last Nintendo console.

This is simple. Appeal to Nintendo, do what we have precedence for with EVO2013, and make **** happen. Maybe we won’t get to be a main title, maybe it’s only Ultimate again. **** needs to happen for the sake of the greater good Why do CEO and other tournaments not have problems?

Just Another Day
(@ObjectDust) reported
lol was about to repost a similar version to this after todays reset. Nintendo should wonder why people pirate their games on PC. Hmm because you treat your player base like trash? Fix matchmaking or permanently ban the below 45% win rate.

@D3V1LSOUL @VGC_News If Gamepass comes to Steam / TVs people will have no reason to buy an Xbox anymore. Console sales will decline, which is worrying imo especially from an investor point of view. Microsoft already seem to be having trouble catching up with Sony & Nintendo. Something to think about.

@BoxWorx_Studios But I don't think Nintendo would have a problem with Yo-Kai Watch 4 in Dreams, considering that it was released on the PS4 as well.

When @Nintendo drops these new Mario Kart tracks, they also need to fix this madness where drivers in 2nd-4th place get shells and drivers in 5th-12th get mushrooms. @NintendoAmerica

@KEEMSTAR the hardcare fans are the issue cause they are the ones that easily break when nintendo just drops a direct or a dlc lol

@Voultar @EposVox I have indeed experienced this exact issue and that was while the Wii was still a supported Nintendo product.

@AVGN82 you shouldn't ever, to me even selling a game in a broken state is unethical and disrespecting people's money, Steams return policy is very good thankfully but Sony/Nintendo needs some work in that area

(@videoneonr) reported
but it's not that Nintendo is the problem anyway though we should want their cooperation and there's no rerason not to enjoy what we can do for them, but that we need to normalize the running of tournaments as the concept is worthy and sound Why are we dealing with this at EVO?

@LeonMassive Nintendo is a weird "We'll do it ourselves" company "Put your music on spotify?" "No lets make our own music service" "Let your game be at a tournament?" "No we'll do our own tournament" etc. etc. Im 99% sure they just...want to do everything themselves with next to no help.
