@SimonFoxcoon @sterophonick Would you have said the same if Xbox, PS, or Nintendo released broken hardware? I highly doubt that. They released a broken system on launch and should be called out for it. Keep the same energy

Is LEGO DC Supervillain as glitch on all platforms or just Nintendo Switch? Had audio glitches, character requirement glitches (ask for a different character with the SAME ABILITIES), and the Johnny DC help tips end up looping requiring game reset..

It’s sad to see Nintendo shut down the eshop for the Wii U and the 3DS. Mostly because their virtual console wasn’t locked behind a streaming service

@Dotemu @1p2pStudio @TheArcadeCrew Looks really good. I will definitly get it. I have one question regarding Metal Slug Tactics. The link for the american eshop seems to be down as one is directed to an error page, the same goes for the presskit page, there the link Nintendo Switch only links to an error page.

@Blade_Voltz @Atlus_West Also, why the hell is this conversation being a "Welp, tough luck" thing and not a "This is a problem, we should be telling Nintendo to change this" issue if people actually think this is a hardware issue? Like why are people just accepting it?

@writersflood if it weren't for nintendo right now we'd be in a gaming crash for the second time cause the other two aren't selling enough consoles and games to mean anything to the market literally the switch sells millions of consoles every month

@stlcty03 I was going to buy an Xbox literally for Halo but the way they handled their flagship title was a red flag for me personally. I mean, look at the **** smh. What if Nintendo dropped a garbage Mario title and told people they’d fix it through updates later on? Absolutely not

@TressaAimuuru Having looked into it apparently Sakurai mentioned in an interview that they tried using rollback netcode for SSBU and it came with "too many side effects". It's probably just an issue with the spec of Nintendo servers and the Switch ngl, amongst other things

@thatskygame I bought a Kizuna AI for my friend through Nintendo, and deducted the money twice due to network problems! I hope to help me get my money back!

Hello, Mr. Edwards
(@hellomredwards) reported
@spinkicks4jesus @pasta_wheat Yeah, it feels very odd to me why Nintendo prioritizes playing original copies of games on original systems (systems they no longer make and games no longer in print, that they wouldn't make money on anyways), or playing on their terrible drip-fed subscription service.

@packetlossremix The problem with telling fans to do one thing they usually retaliate and do the other out of spite whether Nintendo and Sakurai likes it Smash has introduced tons of people to the FGC Smash leaving Evo is definitely gonna hurt

@RuffleMUTT Hard disagree. SteamDeck literally has the same problems (sub 1080p, sub 60 fps) in games, and worse battery life than even the launch Switch model. Somehow this is excused because it’s not Nintendo🤔🤨

@ShadowFoxArche Much worse battery life too don't forget but i guess it's not a problem unless its the Nintendo Switch

@NintenTalk I honestly hope so, I wonder if it’s because the game itself already struggles so much lag already? Perhaps @Nintendo just needs to hire more development teams, hire the ACPC team, just give the fans what they want, constant new content every quarter

@rd_steen @UncannyEXP @OatmealDome You're not wrong nintendo does care about money. But there the only company that people really trust. Nintendo comes clean when a game is in development for too long or if a glitch is out and patches it. Most importantly they FINISH making the ******* game unlike MOST companies.

Gonna be real no Nintendo announcement topped Mario 3D All Stars, Vesperia Denfitive and Xenoblade Chronicles 3. 2019 and 2022 are favorite Switch years. Well I did like the Spyro and Crash announcement port.

@midnaelf Fair point! I just think AC could become more of a games as a service where we can pick and choose item sets, maybe even link it with Nintendo Online. I think it’s about longevity and not having to wait another 7 years for another installment.

@IRLGuppy The gen 9 games look like a mix of the lets go and sword and shield which i think looks okay But i think it'd look better as we get closer to the release since i always feel like Nintendo tends to fix the visuals last

@KatanaRikku if you have the proper toolkit i'd definitely take it apart and see if you can fix it or send it via the Nintendo repair program!

@RomeGoLARGE First up he ent wrong top ten best selling exclusives of all time all belong to Nintendo, infact they have 22 entries in the top 50 best selling games of all time nearly dam half, they innovate but the online service does need work. An opinion based on fact is still a fact 👌

@zurashii @GeorgeOD_ Didn't someone else comment Xenoblade, the game you're comparing, needed a seperate patch to look that good because of the Wii U's limitations? Sorry that all Nintendo consoles have this issue. It's pathetic of them, yea, but keep saying "lol Pokemon bad".

Nintendo expansion pack is actually turning into a good deal. I don't understand the hate it gets. It's not expensive, so what's the problem?

@Blade_Voltz @Atlus_West If the Nintendo Switch, a modern console, cannot handle ROLLBACK NETCODE, something that 360, and PS3 games can handle, that's a big ******* problem. I doubt it's the case either
