@cash4kromer @sailorsarkan202 @SquidDude8 Lazy? More like they're late to the industry. The most popular games nowadays are all live service games where content is drip fed over time. Look outside the Nintendo bubble.

@yumeparadox The game itself is buggy, like really buggy, and some patches won't fix that. The graphics are only the way they are because originally it used special Nintendo tech to look as beautiful as it did. Overall it's just a technical mess of a game, doesn't do Colors justice

@Durrtydoesit What was the 3DS? And isn't the Switch also the successor to that? The biggest issue is that Nintendo systems typically get 5 years (give or take) while Xbox and Playstation get about 7 years before a successor Power doesn't definite generations, tho. Never did.

@ThirstyRaccoon @Romudeth Nahh, the best deal is getting the most value for your money...A.K.A gamepass. Sony's equivalent service is a joke forcing its players to fork over $70 a game to play first party games on release and Nintendo holds its games back with outdated hardware.

My first game I ever got for my Nintendo DS, which was gift from my late grandma, was the original tinker bell game, the corner is broken and it only works on my old pink da instead of my newer 3Ds. It’s in storage somewhere but I want it back…

@MessyRPG @DESTRO_GAMER @ManiacXVII That’s the problem the game engine wasn’t meant for Wii U and they had to scramble to make a new build. Because sega had a deal with Nintendo at the time.

@SCOOPETX This is the long term goal for Gamepass, to become completely cloud and sell the service like Netflix. You won’t even need to own an Xbox next gen. But it’s a work in progress. Revenue for Xbox is low compared to Nintendo and PlayStation. This was to counter and help pay off the

@faulkie87 @RedEyedDragoon_ If Sony has a big publisher deal in Japan it will be up to Ministry of Finance to investigate or review. But since Nintendo has 95% of the market it would not be a problem for Sony to make it go through even if Bungie is now locked at FTC for investigation.

Please @ArcSystemWorksU FIX YOUR GAME. Really tired of Kara FD being a thing and buffer system being terrible. While also not giving any patches, not even bug fixes. Stop trying to compete with Nintendo on how bad you are with your customers.

@Peaceful_Hermit Live service games don't usually have a single player/story mode, and if they do online is the main focus. Apex, Valorant, Fortnite, Warzone, GTA, Leauge, FF XIV, etc. The problem is Nintendo keeps doing this with single player games. Nobody is buying animal crossing for online.

Bought an Animal Crossing Nintendo Switch and it wobbles when I put it into the stand thingy. I feel like it should be more secure than that. Anyone else have this issue or just me?

@NintendoAmerica I hope that y'all are having a nice day. I'm having a slight issue, with your new icon system to a certain degree and I'm wondering if the air is on my end or something that is just not complete? I attempted to purchase one of the backgrounds I don't see it?

@mcswitchlite @The__Goomba Not brilliantly. I love Nintendo and my Switch but even at launch it was underpowered and had awful frame rate issues in BOTW (i.e. Lost Woods). I don’t even care about frame rate issues most of the time and it bothered me a ton because it was so egregious.
