@antdude92 I wonder which exclusive PlayStation games you have in mind. I can't think of anything that isn't third party or has already had a chance on Nintendo Hardware. Metal Gear Final Fantasy Tekken Crash Bandicoot Spyro

I wonder if Nintendo intentionally made N64 emulation bad on Switch so that they can later fix it and have people claim that it’s worth it now, despite there not really being a good reason to buy it, even if there was cycle accurate emulation.

@EnzoLeKikoo @Zenobia_of_Mu The law won't care lmao They're more worried about serious issues that affect real people not someone liking the *** of a 117 y/o elf girl from a fantasy game made by Nintendo

@foxygames_uk Its pathetic. They're just trying to make up every excuse in the world that they don't believe they'll ever surpass PS2 numbers. They moved to America for what. 90% loss market share in JP yet Nintendo has no problem dominating with Switch sales outside Kyoto.

@ArvuAndBoxCrew @AidanCoutts @DynamoSuperX Yeah, YouTube's system isn't great. That's not Nintendo's problem though. If one track got in the bundle for some reason, wow, big deal... If they have no rights to it, the owner of the account can dispute the claim.

@JimmyRo27769189 @ThorgisArcade No. One problem with that is Nintendo will now start cease and desisting fan games based on Capcom IP's. So what I'm saying is nobody should buy out Capcom.

@notdylm it getting removed by Apple in a covert manner (as to not call attention to the store issues) is far more probable than death threats or addiction or a nintendo takedown.

@PaulTyreGaming @Ludens74781390 @JeffGrubb Nintendo's staples seem to imply otherwise. I think the reality is that people wanted their nostalgia but and didn't actually care that much about Crash. Otherwise Crash wouldn't have been iced in the first place

@SuperNGuy Slightly (un)related: I miss the Party Crashes … I still hope @Nintendo updates #ARMS so people can host their own Party Crash.

@CurtisMann92 @Shreeveera Apple just works. And they have great customer service. I think Nintendo and android people are much worse

@ajahni_white @CubetaMalvada @Shreeveera This I agree with. But PlayStation has to do this. Same with Nintendo. It would be great if we could get these day and date on a subscription service. It’s why I’m currently using Xbox more

Microsoft owns Halo, but Sony owns Bungie. Sony owns Naughty Dog, but Microsoft owns Crash Bandicoot. Nintendo owns Donkey Kong Country, but Microsoft owns Rare. Strange Times Ahead!

@TheOmenGod @Skarrow9 I see no problem with these acquisitions as long as the companies do right by their IPs. Sony, Microsoft & Nintendo are all trusted gaming companies, some flaws yes. Its good to safeguard franchises against the likes of Amazon & Google who just want a cash grab over quality games

@JackLLockett Itoi has the biggest say in DMCA for the MOTHER series. It's why fangames don't get taken down. Itoi has no problem with them and Nintendo can't really do anything since he's the maim rights holder

@vyasrushi3 @xMBGx Problem with single players it s only touching a small number of players really. Attachment rates to ps are not very good comparing to nintendo. Losing games like COD will hurt them in long run

@Stealth40k I love Crash Bandicoot, and Spyro, and hope they stay multi plat. But even hoping for that, people just say "get an Xbox 🤡". Childish nonsense most of the time, these fanboy wars. I prefer Playstation and Nintendo, but all of these purchases are draining.

Once again reaching out to @NintendoAmerica @NintendoEurope @NintendoNL. My repair F570X1553807 vanished in thin air. I sent in two joycons with the drift problem. Never an update, never received them back. #Nintendo #NintendoSwitch

@Drifter9923 I know SEGA isn't the best company, but they certainly aren't the worst. It seems that they really care about the fans and they want to try their best to fix their mistakes. They love Sonic as much as the fans do. Plus, unlike Nintendo they actually love fan made creations.

@cyothevile @RetroGamerStuff The problem is the console, not all the hard work that went into them to undo Nintendo's cost saving methods.

@IGN Game studios will buy up devs so they can make there hardware less streaming services. We know they make min on hardware. Its a race to see who will be the netflix of gaming. Nintendo will sit back because hell Nintendo made gaming what it is today after the market game crash.

News must be getting to me, had a dream where Nintendo bought Crash Bandicoot and I tried to argue they should make more content for crash team racing and put it on PC, only they used the characters to make a restaurant...

@TheCorkenstein @aaron2588 @vicious696 I’d rather download and own my games than having to pay a monthly fee to play certain titles. Nintendo doesn’t even have a subscription service yet their games are thriving. Sony is obviously doing their own subscription service, but day and date on Spartacus isn’t likely.
