    @garrettondamic @So_Ethereal @NintendoAmerica your big issue is... she has ********... Aight I'm out. Have a good one. Whomever you want in smash hope you get them. I'm happy with pyra your not whatever. Last thing before I do leave though who you want in?

  • Ookaze0 Ookaze BioACobol (@Ookaze0) reported

    @DeputyVanHalen4 @AlexPrime_86 Nintendo is not leaving any money on the table, Nintendo's higher-ups are not clueless people, they know what you say makes no sense and will never do that, fortunately. Their games do not lose value and crash in price like Sony/MS games.

  • Martin88338881 Martinxo51 (@Martin88338881) reported

    @ShiftedPyro @NintendoAmerica If Crash is even on FP2, they are showing him on E3. It'd be stupid if they showed Crash in a Nintendo Direct and then Pyra in E3

  • RobiStudios Robi Studios (@RobiStudios) reported

    @thegrafico @NintendoAmerica Hey! So sorry you've had those issues :( We've released a patch on Steam fixing crashes and bugs. Switch patch will be avaliable asap!

  • ShiftedPyro Shifted Boomer @ Pyra/Mythra are in Smash!!!! (@ShiftedPyro) reported

    @Henry13043664 @NintendoAmerica Should've Crash instead of JRPG Trash

  • Ur_Boi_Pika Pika (@Ur_Boi_Pika) reported

    @SickinatorD @NintendoAmerica If Crash is a mii costume you're legally obligated to play Xenoblade Chronicles

  • orla_rdz Depre de a mentis (@orla_rdz) reported

    @sean80006182 @chunky_dead @NintendoAmerica Haha I just said the weeb thing to troll. Play whatever you like. My real issue is that characters like Myrtha or Byleth are just ***** marketing strategy by Nintendo. It’s annoying cause they’re making us pay extra money for this ****. But well, it is what it is.

  • magnuslundinHV Mister-Guy (Magnus Lundin) (@magnuslundinHV) reported

    @gamefan_14 @AnastaSakuraSan I never had any problems with drifting with my joycons or pro-controller, and they are 3 years old now. I am following the guidance Nintendo gave out on their site a month after the drifting-problems started to many, it often are coming due to wrong user-care.

  • chunky_dead Chunky_Dead (@chunky_dead) reported

    @ShiftedPyro @NintendoAmerica JRPG trash in your opinion. Crash would be fun, but what makes you think that Pyra&Mythra wouldn't be fun? Also, they can't just name a character and it's theirs, I'm pretty sure that there is some legal work that needs to be done as well.

  • Im_Oschard Vincent 👽 (@Im_Oschard) reported

    @PremsterL Sorry if I seem like a broken record but... Are there any performance updates for the Nintendo Switch with this update? I reaaaaaally want to buy/play the new season pass 😫 I read the change log but I found nothing... Anyway, CONGRATS ON THE RELEASE IT LOOKS AMAZING!!

  • shadow7591 shadow759 (Birthday 25th) (@shadow7591) reported

    @Rowler7 I would love for Crash to come. Sadly it's not 100% up to Nintendo, or maybe some deal happen or maybe a deal was offered and the other guys said no. who knows.

  • ThePotatoKing13 The Potato King (@ThePotatoKing13) reported

    @jultar1000 @Bookid16R @NintendoAmerica Oooh, Crash isn't even one of my more wanted characters, but that hurt to even think about

  • XoticAlt Xotic but SUSpended (@XoticAlt) reported

    @NintendoAmerica GOD I ******* HATE XENOBLADE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SANS FROM UNDERTALE!!!! FIX YOUR **** NINTENDO

  • Martin88338881 Martinxo51 (@Martin88338881) reported

    @ShiftedPyro @NintendoAmerica Saying no one wanted a XC2 rep is the same as saying that no one wants Crash, Dante, Master Chief, Doom Slayer, Rayman, etc Or even saying that no one wanted Hero, Banjo, Steve or Sephiroth Stop acting like a child dude

  • jennaia07 Alfie (@jennaia07) reported

    @antgdash01 @TeamGuardanator @NintendoAmerica Stfu what the heck is your problem

  • Schitting_rn Jack Schitt (@Schitting_rn) reported

    @cyngapra I'll eventually grab it but I refuse to pay for Nintendo's online service so I'm soloing everything.

  • tobzuu_spl tobzuu (@tobzuu_spl) reported

    @firefinsscope NINTENDO NEED TO FIX MATCHMAKING OMG WTF???? HOW WILL HE GRIND AGAIN HE WILL TAKE 5 MATCHES TO GET IT BACK OH NOOO😱😱😱😨😨😭😭

  • jasonham849 Jasonham849 (@jasonham849) reported

    @ShiftedPyro @NintendoAmerica Dude i want crash but there no need to be ungrateful

  • Xenophacilus Xenophacilus (@Xenophacilus) reported

    @trainer_kr @NintendoAmerica I don't know I just feel it happening since we're so close to MonHun Rise hey maybe Crash can be a Brawler as well due to his 4th game coming out in the same month as well I feel like he could be a great deluxe mii

  • vMxnkey vMxnkey (@vMxnkey) reported

    @ManMilk2 Playstation & Xbox wouldn't exist or Video Games wouldn't exist now. Nintendo saved the gaming market during the market crash in the early 80s

  • extracelesteial fruit (@extracelesteial) reported

    @LukeyWolf_ @NintendoUK it's almost like the problem was always the four marths & not the concept of using sharp things for fighting

  • heelixv Heelix ⊗ WV Spoilers (@heelixv) reported

    @OctoEFAnthony If Gamefreak and Nintendo knew how to communicate this wouldn't be a problem i think

  • SoopaSanik705 Super Sonic 705 (@SoopaSanik705) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Crash is gonna be a mii costume, calling it now

  • VideoGamerMarx JigsawMarx (#NiGHTSMAFIA) (@VideoGamerMarx) reported

    @Partymn1256 If anyone didn’t notice, most of Nintendo’s problems come from their American division, not from the company as a whole.

  • catovitch Meowski Catovitch (@catovitch) reported

    @BWrfwd The switch pro has a design flaw but it's on the bumper buttons rather than the stick. Nintendo reserved bad sticks for the joycons. IDK how controllers are so expensive and so many generations in, but still have so many damn problems. Same with mice.

  • felipinh012 felipinho/FelipeTH (@felipinh012) reported

    @HillZerd @docherty_leigh @NintendoAmerica i will come back if crash somehow gets

  • truthlesshero86 Jared (@truthlesshero86) reported

    Get yo early for a work meeting, they said. It’ll be fun to find out how the company did last year, they said. *logs in* *gets error message* *plays Nintendo switch for an hour*

  • Bluejack222 FrostyJack (@Bluejack222) reported

    @TheNCSmaster @Destructo_Dan @NintendoAmerica Yeah I do not want to have Monster Hunter as the last reps but then again that means it will deconfirm crash as well

  • CEOofSpikes Jake™ (CEO of Spikes) (@CEOofSpikes) reported

    @igmrevaporation @NintendoAmerica I want this to happen when Crash gets in as a fighter. Crash guy Mii as long as actual Crash is a fighter!

  • PPybro Portable Pybro (@PPybro) reported

    @RealPoi_ @NintendoAmerica That's just childish, just like how the people who say "too many swordfighters" are childish, you're part of the problem
