@theWellRedMage Nintendo's business practices prevented another video game crash, but it also set themselves up with far too much control, and at the time of the NES, they really didn't have any competition. If anything, that strong arm approach is what propelled Genesis into the spotlight.

@2Pyca6oKyLlpjfJ @NintendoAmerica This sounds more of a you problem than Nintendo's fault even if we know it's bait

@TAHK0 Yeah, the line is a bit blurred. Nintendo still has no problem putting DK characters in Mario games, but individual DK games feel isolated (in contrast to Yoshi games, where enemies/assets are reused). Well, if DK isn’t 5th, I guess Nintendo could always give Arms another whirl!

Can we cancel Rockstar North the way we cancelled CD Projekt Red for also releasing broken games that aren't ready? This is happening far too often these days and companies need to take a leaf out of Nintendo's book and only release stuff when it's ready

@NintendoAmerica Didn't fix the horrible shimmer for the NES emulator, but got it perfect for the Gameboy one 🤡

@ferdi_schmidt @Turanq_ @LeonMandala Ahhhhh so it's an exacerbation of ongoing issues. I agree, the NSO emulation situation is really meh. It sounds like Nintendo really underestimated the challenge that is software emulation. And it's appropriate that they forget their competition works for free

If @FortniteGame or @NintendoAmerica doesn’t fix the glitchiness I swear to god I’m gonna smash the switch & never play again. I run to the left, it makes me run to the right. I drive a boat right it makes me go to the left. I’ll tell you what, the @Xbox isn’t glitchy at all.

@RockstarSupport This reminds me of when I was a lad and was all excited to play some classic NES on a day off from school... but when I tried to turn on the game, the phone rang and it was Nintendo HQ telling me that the power button, for no reason, was broken and wouldn't work for 3 days.

And also, if you're reading this @SteelWoolStudio. Please fix the Nintendo Switch version of the game.

Has anyone fixed Nintendo joycon drift themselves? Don’t tell me to look on YouTube or I’ll bite you. I want to KNOW someone who managed to fix it and can tell me how because I trust people I know with the experience- rather than a video that might make my stupid *** break it

(@Theman24209254) reported
@JW_Evolution I need you to actually answer this question. In your Nintendo switch port of Jurassic world evolution the graphics are very obviously blunted to run better on the switch, but there is a glitch that allows me to actually see clarity in the game for split second -

@Or0ch1__ @NintendoAmerica I will never understand blind loyalty to a game company, nor people who blast a different company for…doing the responsible thing and announcing “Hey, there’s a bug, we’re working on a fix.” Neither Microsoft nor Nintendo is perfect.

@BrenIsTired @OkdakSempai @Silast_UP Prime 2D released a demo to the public, then Nintendo cease and desisted them. I wish they didn't issue take down notices in the first place, but you are safe until you release it.

@SleezyWeezelsle Yes, but this is mainly Twitch's problem I would say. Nintendo wouldn't be developing this, and Twitch already has a perfectly fine way to deal with this stuff on small screens

@charlesrandall @docsquiddy ironically, there probably is an opportunity for *someone* to create a trusted third party interop API service that does everything epic services does for xbox/ps/nintendo/twitch/steam integration and acts as a trusted intermediary for that but it would actually do something

@frisbee @NintendoAmerica Oh, no, see, ALL the NSO virtual-console titles have that control lag. Including the NES/SNES ones. A completely-typical bug is not a huge deal, though.

@Lewchube Going to need a remake of the Shaymin surf door glitch tutorial (that was taken down by Nintendo, turns out) by that kid with the allcaps English accent. THIS IS MY TUTORIAL ON HOW TO CATCH A SHEEMY

Er, maybe a better way to phrase this is that Nintendo's denial of CJ & Flick isn't a lack of inclusion, it's exclusion because they raised the issue. If you were already fine with AC, I don't see why CJ and Flick need to be a bad thing, but Nintendo is clear where it stands
