@AlexRoseGames @SudlaSteel @PracticalTAS Saying u should get a license doesn't strongarm anyone. Plus Nintendo's stance on slippi was rather clear and anyone with a brain could have told u eventually u would get in trouble for that

@reallyBADgamer0 @SudlaSteel @PracticalTAS A. We hadn't get in trouble for it for a long time. We had been running Slippi emulated upscaling in events from early 2019 all the way through until Panda drew the eye of Nintendo, and UCF for years

@NintendoUK Not bad for a first patch. Things actually went smoother but there is still many things to iron out. But the game isn't tanking for me as it normally was which is the biggest issue I had and some camer clipping. Actually just so fun to play.

@hea_rt_strings this is basically what Panda ceo said to them, "it would be a shame if the event gets canceled due to licensing issues" my opinion would be just run the event for the `22 finals and assign the blame to Nintendo if things got shut down by informing players that it was unlicensed

@TKbreezy Neither Nintendo or VGBC want to come out and say what the problem is, but I don’t think it’s a conspiracy from Panda. Did Panda want to broadcast their own tour events? Yes. Did they try to get BTS to give up rights? Yes. Did they get SWT shut down? No.

@Mr_RSmash I don't want to jump to defend Nintendo, but VGBC doesn't really have good security at their events and have some very wishy washy regulations on player attendance. That said, Panda could also have this issues which would make Nintendo hypocritical in their statement.

@JElivelife @NintendoAmerica yea there is some lag and frame rate drops, but I don’t care because it rarely happens, but the bugs are not horrible and doesn’t make the game bad, people just wanna dog pile on the game and hate on it, even if they never bought the game to begin with (2/2)

@RangerSmash1 @LittleZ Well,there is something fishy still. I don't say there is no issues, or that nintendo is wrong. Just that the timings, and especially the pressure put from Panda first is obviously not right. Why is there so much things happening now, all of a sudden ? Why not earlier ?

@Argantz Sony and Nintendo didn’t get where they are by acquiring gigantic publishers. MS can figure it out if they really tried but they’re much more interested in acquisitions to help solve the problem.

My Switch is now with Nintendo, bets on how much it's gonna cost to fix? 🤔

(@ROBO_LEADER) reported
@ChakkieWFT If I were as risk-adverse as Nintendo, I'd be very concerned about attaching my brand in an official capacity after the massive problems that occurred at events like Double Down. Still, this reeks of underhanded bullshit. You don't string people along like that.

@TKbreezy There’s a piece that hasn’t been confirmed publicly and I don’t know that it ever will because it seems Nintendo and VGBC are playing angles instead of airing everything publicly (and I understand why they would do that). I think I know what the issue is… but I’ll wait on more

@YesItsZell But it's easy to tell when something is wrong. I'd understand if it was actual action like legends arceus where you dodge and such then I'd understand ignoring an issue but something like this is easy af to notice. Really wish Nintendo did a refund option.

pixel games - Donut Dodo - Nintendo Switch Out Now
(@pixelgames) reported
@rmb358 @tenpencearcade These should have been live at launch, but since it's an online service we have to meet certain requirements set by Nintendo. Hopefully the service will go live asap. Apologies for the unscheduled delay.

@fel_carson How does it feel playing the game and the performance issues are still there? I don’t know why you tried to insinuate the “specific” bug fixes were gonna fix the performance issues, just for you to try and clarify and walk back your thought. Nintendo doesn’t care.

@studioghibli @NintendoAmerica hope you create a game for Kiki's Delivery Service 'cause since then there's no game about it.

@PressStartLock I think we're getting an update today. The issue was acknowledged by Nintendo. We'll see how far this update goes but I suspect it's more to address duping glitches.

@Lewchube And it's not like Nintendo is going to say it was a memory leak. When GF patches **** they just refer to moselt problems as bugs and keep the notes vague as hell.

anyway I will miss us having a magazine product. Magazines are even worse off than newspapers but it’s the format that first drew me to writing (Nintendo Power, GQ). hope to swing by the newsroom soon to pick up some issues. I need some bedside reading.

@IGN @thetruebowser No issue with not granting a license for health and safety reasons, but it is pretty sad to see Nintendo wield fear as a cudgel towards one of their most dedicated communities, using thinly veiled threats and then backpedaling when it gets in the public eye. Shameful behavior imo

@HugS86 if the tournament continues it is the same situation as it always was. nintendo could always send a C&D. If it wasn't a problem in the past, why is it now? Just because is it being talked about?

@D_Disciple @bobomb_shell The problem is they were so quick to blame Panda that I doubt they even believe it’s due to whatever health and safety guidelines that Nintendo is referencing.

Nintendo can't make a console that gets to 60fps and to fix it, they decide to try and murder an entire community lol

@ADogThatTypes @FSSXE @IGN probably texas, it dosnt let events enforce a mask policy, kind of fair in that regard for nintendo to have a problem with that to be frank. But also, they should have oh idk, communicated this in april, not two weeks before the event.

@Jay_Travers11 @grayhoodie @CallistoTheGame People had no problem buying a Nintendo console after Nintendo funded Bayonetta 2 and 3 even though part 1 originally released on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. Suddenly it's a problem when Microsoft does something similar? Every game doesn't have to be accessible to all systems.
