@EmperorLemon gets mad people support Nintendo by buying things they want, despite the company having executive issues says he’ll buy a bunch of Nintendo stock to capitalize on the company’s popularity lmao

I feel so bad for devs in the games industry working in AAA studios. There’s no way CDPR devs wanted the game to release as it is. There’s no way Nintendo devs are as heartless as their bosses. There’s no way 76 devs wanted to trick people into paying $60 on a broken $40 game. EA

@Tschembey it's because of a glitch on the nintendo switch version of the game

Tired.
(@ThouArtI) reported
@DatGeistra The problem with comparing old games to modern games is the fact that they were much smaller, simpler, and easier to produce. Now, you either need to take shortcuts like releasing the same game (CoD), make your game simpler (most Nintendo games) or risk having bugs.

@EmperorLemon Okay... but this is just sakurai talking about his character right? It doesn’t have much to do with Nintendo as a whole I mean I GUESS you could go leave a disk like on the video and say “take that brand!” But at the end of the day I just don’t think it’s solving any problems

@EricDiepeveen @hermenhulst Consoles themselves are anti-consumer. They practically lock game exclusive rights and sell mediocre hardware with a nice package and terrible customer service (nintendo excluded)

As for Nintendo, I do know what's going on with its copyright issues and they are taking down things and trying to hide it with Sephiroth and Geno. But to finish it off, I warn everyone to walk around with an open mind. That's all I ask, we all need to be open.

I've got a plugged controller as a temporary fix (and i can use it for pc rivals of aether) but i need to send them in to nintendo for repair at some point

@EmperorLemon By that logic, since people hate Nintendo’s Switch Online service, all their videos than just announcement videos of their retro games should be disliked. Because if people actually see something they like and want to support, they should throw away interests and auto dislike

@RinOnishi12 @9_volt_ Nintendo of Japan caught on real quick and did a massive recall on the cartridges and then re-released them post patch. Luckily when it went to global release dat they knew about the issue and already fixed it before shipping em out. Its infamous yet forgotten.

@ThatCubeGamer I feel like NoA is behind all of this tbh. Especially when you consider NoE and Nintendo JP don’t have this much of a problem as the America division does. Just a theory tho.

yo nintendo gonna have the shittiest connections at their theme park to make it more like the online service

@BGD_SSB Even if Sakurai didn’t care about the competitive scene that doesn’t mean we should take it out on him. The problem is Nintendo actively ******* with the competitive scene. Plus tons of us already bought the fighter pass months ago so we just getting our money’s worth.

@jjgamerboii @NintendoAmerica @USJ_Official yea, i'm just sour i'm in the us ****** texans, amirite lol and i don't think all ports are bad, but i don't think it's fair to charge em full price when not adding too much (and the theme park does look cool! only issue is too much mario, but there is pikmin here and there!

@QuarantinedCoof You could also just give the middle finger to Nintendo & just mod it to hell so you get rid of whatever bullshit performance problems in games

(@MagicMimic) reported
@mehdigeek_ Sony removed a 3rd party game that just released and has lots of performance issues on their previous gen consoles. So of course. Nintendo is going to remove a 1st party game that's been out for months and has zero performance issues on the only console that it's on. Solid Logic.

@IzzyJVlare @shyguysvault @EmperorLemon I’m just saying I don’t think we should assume anyone who gets excited or doesn’t understand all the backlash is a nintendo fanboy that praises every single business decision they make including shutting down fan projects, which is the problem I have with Emp’s take

Not to be that guy but Nintendo doesn’t put out unfinished/broken games just to meet deadlines

@IntroSpecktive A problem with Nintendo fans in general is that they often overestimate their numbers, some people think that everyone cares about Melee tournaments when that really ain't true. More people do care about Smash characters than Nintendo eSports, easy

(@Chrissug96) reported
@EmperorLemon Nah dude, people just don't care. eSports has always been niche so it really shouldn't be surprising that the majority of fans don't really give a damn. That being said, what Nintendo is doing is shitty and it should stop. But the issue is with management, not devs.

@ItsRocket14 Your mentality is why Nintendo can carry on and get away with charging for online without doing anything to improve the service

@tortoisesensei I still never got that, half of tumblr was NSFW, and the majority of people clearly went to the site for NSFW. All people were complaining about was the CP, everything else was no problem (apart from Nintendo removing stuff)

(@lavernicola) reported
So, from this interview to Doug Bowser you would expect ANY @Nintendo regtion to provide a satisfactory and customer pain-free repair/replacement. Last time I got asked for 70€ for a REPAIR.Has this changed @NintendoES? Is drifting finally acknowledged as a design/factory issue?
