Once Golden Sun and Fire Emblem hit, I'll finally have a reason to bother with Nintendo's online service.

They would have shown RBY/RSE if it wasn’t like there’s no way Nintendo isn’t gonna put POKEMON on their paid subscription service

Apparently a sure indication of a Nintendo Direct being given overwhelmingly positive reception is apparently Twitter lagging for a bit. To be fair, I'm pretty stoked about a couple new RPG demos and Metroid Prime HD as well, so I can see why that'd be the case.

okay so was the Big Twitter Breakdown a traffic issue due to nintendo direct OR was it them trying to turn off unpaid API access and knocking everything off the shelf in the process

@Cantomancer Okay cool it’s back up. What a time for it to crash, huh? During the Nintendo Direct, something tha would have a HUGE spike in activity. We lost Twitter at a crucial time

while I think it's cool that Nintendo does actually rerelease old games on switches emulator, it is really frustrating they Disney vault them to release once every 5 years in like, waves? and then only release them in packs for this booboo *** online service. give me vc pls.
