@GameSpot **** off lol. It isn't difficult to play. Is it expensive for what they give yes, but it isn't like they are asking for $30 a month. They are offering a service and people can decide to pay for it or not. Besides ******** will pirate it even if it Nintendo kept the OG price.

...Nintendo Life articles have bene really going downhill. From parroting garbage switch pro rumors, blatant clickbait, and outright lying. 2 years ago this wasn't an issue but now its a huge problem. They desperately need someone to check their **** before they post it

@DanaTheElf @mathengedomi Such is the tricky part about video games, that normally "oh well I guess you can't buy this game on Switch" is 100% Nintendo's problem, but they've made it your problem by having an ecosystem that you've made your way into for other reasons, and now it's not worth just leaving.

@brookgamingfans my Nintendo Switch stopped letting me reassign buttons on my Universal USB Fight Board. It registers as "unable to remap'. I just downloaded firmware 3.0.0 on Mac OS 11.6. Please fix.

@PcElitest I'm all for critisising company but when people use a person who died like iwata to bash the way nintendo is doing things that's a problem.

@GameHistoryOrg When we first started making Nintendo Force, we got in touch with Songbird Ocarinas to negotiate continue their same ad placements from Nintendo Power. It didn't end up working out, but we did carry forward the Telegames ads from NP's final stretch of issues!

"Nintendo NEEDS to fix Sora NOW" and all other "this game is BROKEN" videos are do funny to me because they are made like 2 days after the new content drop. this why devs don't trust players when it comes to what does/doesn't need to be nerfed

Ever since the Nintendo switch online had existed in nothing but cause problems with everyone mainly online play and not owning classics that should have been on the eshop to begin with.

@MysteryCupofJoe @PolyDepression Online price going up. Their online service being objectively bad. Nintendo Tax existing in 2021. Refusing to fix joycon drift until threatened with a class action lawsuit. Selling lazy remasters for full price.

@TheSoulMinded Just for curiosity's sake, what triple A projects do you think have avoided these problems and have done it the right way? Also, where should the so-called "Double A" titles fit into everything? AA is a funny term to me as people call Nintendo games AA which I think is weird.

@GameSpot Surprise! Nintendo is a business out to make money! How shocking! Nintendo has always valued their game legacy and actually I am shocked they are willing to give them in a service for $4.16 a month. Plus licensing fees are a thing people! Actually $4.16 is cheaper than a majority

@venom_cipher I won’t lie, it felt strange seeing the Daisy emotes different from her design in-game. The question is, will Nintendo fix that in the final product?

@SLADE10952570 @OrigiGreatness What I don't appreciate, and what John was predicting (which ultimately was accurate) was MS try to brute force the industry with money. They tried to buy Nintendo for crying out loud and Square Enix. Those issues he had with MS joining the game industry weren't out the ***

If you want to make better a service for people to be happy then I strongly suggest that the system itself for the Nintendo Switch should be drastically updated to make classic games obtainable on the eshop that is Virtual Console. If you do that then everyone is happy.

@Jack75023025 @Wario64 it's better the games are avaialble on multiple platform than it is to just have them go up in prices and becoming expensive as hell and ppl not being able to play it which i don't ahve a issue with sine anything outside of nintendo will go down in price eventually.

So even in this latest big update, Nintendo has not implemented bulk crafting, despite people begging for it. It seems to me like Nintendo knows that doing so would basically crash the economy of online trading, and they care about this for some reason
