@SuperGamer61499 Ahhhh, no wonder why I muted Blandrew. A vast libary that is full of ports and has backwards compatablity be on a subscription service. And a system where it's exclusives never go down in price because Nintendo would actually be a tolerable company. Worst part is, Sony's Game

@gustrex1 @BlandrewYT Nintendo can offer you free repair for your joycons if their only problem is the joystick drift. Even without warranty it's possible (don't forget invoice). Or diy, some basic tools and a joystick (all for ~10$) on aliexpress. I did that and it work great.

i understand the pokemon games dont look great compared to other games nintendo has put out but the problem with pokemon is that it CANT be delayed, because of everything that gets released alongside the game that would also have to be delayed. +

im still mad nintendo didnt make a stronger switch capable of running certain games better and allowing devs to not be hindered as much in making switch versions, but instead gave us a slightly nicer screen and a lan port (lan port doesnt even matter when the service is so ****)

Hey @NintendoAmerica I'm physically disabled woman who can't press the ZL and ZR buttons. This is absolutely frustrating for me. Especially when playing #PokemonLegendsArceus Please fix!

@faerytells +1 to previous commenter...at least what we got out of translation issues is Ephraim being pointedly judgy at fandom in feh over it. First time I saw his disdain I thought wow Nintendo tell us how you really feel.

@_Swesters_ @TamashiiHiroka I like it better than a 3rd version. But the eshop thing is a problem nintendo needs to solve. And it wouldn't be lost if you have it on your console already

@TDookus Pokemon is basically Nintendo's FIFA, launch 1 per year completly unpolished and broken, yet a lot of people still buy it and defend it

I can't believe how easy #Sony and #Nintendo make security issues fixable while #Microsoft makes you wait an entire month just to fix a simple account issue

@TonyZTank Little reminder of history: The PlayStation 1 was supposed to be a accesory for Nintendo, but due to a disagrement they create it as a console. Needless to say that Sony and Nintendo aren't best friend in the world. If they wanted to kill Ultimate, why allow Genesis, Glitch?

Hey @NintendoAmerica and @Nintendo You should really try to fix that exploit on Mario Kart 7 for the 3DS There’s a hacker person basically setting everyone’s legit VR to 0 and maybe even break their consoles It could also lead to piracy if you’re interested to fix it quickly 👀

@SuperGamer61499 Pass service when it comes to Legacy Titles will probably rip off Nintendo.

Elden Ring is generating a level of motion sickness in me that I have not experienced since Goldeneye on the Nintendo 64. I’ve tried tweaking the graphics settings to no success. Played all prior souls games without issue. #ELDENRING #ps5 @Fromsoft_US

The only kinda cool phase was the Nintendo DS one, because I was older, so I knew all my problems could be solved with a R4 card. God Bless piracy, because all those games would never ever come from my parents.

@duskvortex i've already expressed my dislike for the art style, which is completely a Me Problem. and i'm already hugely uncomfortable by how close nintendo treads to disney-like practices, so this is like extra no bueno for me

@HEYimHeroic @Mootmonthly Game Freak have always been objectively lousy developers. Even back during Gen 2, they were having a lot of trouble getting Gold and Silver out on time, so Nintendo sent Satoru Iwata to help. He cleaned their poor code so much they were able to put most of Gen 1 Kanto in as well.

there's nothing wrong with me
(@MartinSkepta) reported
@Souppdog1 @GrawJaylo @DocHollyday4 you keep excusing the reasons why the stuff exists (like the tennis racquet analogy and this online service thing) but that has nothing to do with why nintendo doesn't want a fan-made mod being advertised as an official nintendo product when it isn't, it's that simple

@StoneColdRico_ You know how stupid this is? My generation grew up playing Nintendo all the time and guess what? Me and my fellow basic training troops had no problems with the physical part of training. It actually wasn't bad at all. Of course I wasn't a navy seal :)

@NintendoAmerica why would you make an update for Pokemon Legends Arceus that fixed something that wasn't even broken and people were loving? You've just ruined one of the best features of the game, and something people were praising you for. If I were you I would undo the update

@ConfusedEli10 @Vers4No No. We shouldn't. Minecraft is meant to look the way it does. The problem here is that Nintendo refuses to join next gen gaming. GameFreak is doing everything they can, but Nintendo is ******* them. The house of N needs to build a 4k capable system and join us in 2022

Hello, Mr. Edwards

@BlandrewYT And that's not mentioning Nintendo's other strange practices, like not prioritizing multimedia apps, removing virtual console, and spreading many important features across the limited Switch Online service, especially with the expansion pack.

@noonbase @legitmanami they just pump out so much **** constantly and only SOME of it feels worth the time. this is my issue with a lot of nintendo mainlines tho like... so much of it feels like unsubstantial formulaic fluff??

@wyrmforge And there are many other problems I think. Nintendo are very draconian with their franchises, and I don't think they provided Game Freak a decent budget.
