This is the issue where they teased the release of Mother 3 which at the time was being developed for the N64. I’m still mad we don’t have an official release! 17 years Nintendo! 17 years!

@grissimen @MorseCodeIsGay @takeyoureheart As the other dudes said. The mod was made in good faith, free, and improved upon the game in everyway. Didn't tarnish the reputation or image of any Nintendo IP. Fans are doing better with with Nintendo's games than Nintendo is yet somehow it's an issue. Dumb.

@Chudokuu_ @NintendoAmerica Yup! Just keep in mind that you can't have any money on the account (even 1 cent will make you ineligible, but gold points don't matter), and you can't have autorenewal for any service that draws funds from your Nintendo Account, like NSO or Just Dance Unlimited

@BeTa_CP @NintendoVS There is no problem with Splatoon. Nintendo is actively killing the Smash competitive scene, and we need to invade every space to make them hear us.

@Knife_spl2 Don't hold it against them. It's a decade and a half worth of abandonment issues and outright scorn from Nintendo themselves playing out here. Obviously this is a vast numerical minority w/ more passion than sense. This could be us in a few years. We must take caution.

@RiotLettuce Guys will say **** Nintendo... yet enjoy parts of the company that are disconnected from the parts of the company that are causing the problems Nintendo FANS are pissed about? Bad take?

@Charalanahzard Suddenly I'm not as mad at nintendo for it's limited run dealio... If Scalping's a problem there needs to be a way to combat it. While a kneejerk solution, it looks like it's temporary until nintendo finds a way to deal with these hoarders.

@itadori_1 @takeyoureheart @mjb_art They're the the worst out of the 3 console manufacturers Worst online Worst console Low 3rd party support They sell you shitty ports for 60$ (hell, activision did the remasters + of crash trilogy for 40$, ******* activision and nintendo sells mario 3d without any changes for 60)

@gaybabyjack0618 @DarkGenex It actually seems like a great strategy-since Nintendo has no real legal claim against the tournament, so tourneys could run with no issues. But sadly, the power of Nintendo is being able to tire you financially in court-unless someone with a massive budget and a willing 1/2

@NintendoAmerica if you're gonna shut down the online scene for Melee, at least have the decency to fix ultimate's online functionality and your online service in all your games in general. NSO is a joke

@im_theaspirant @PrecedeSmash Thats the problem, Nintendo not supporting the Smash community as they do the with Splatoon or Arms. They just sit there and get benefits for our existence while Splatoon don’t have to work as hard like we did for 20 years now.

I kinda want to quit smash, but I'm in too deep. Nintendo Corporate seems to hate everyone who plays the game, especially competitive players, the online is broken and has no effort put into it, and all of smash online is filled with toxic people looking to take... (1/?)

@MarineTadano The only reason I haven’t gone back to a hacked one yet is just in case I need nintendo to repair it. Had to do a screen fix once already

@AkanbeRPG @CLASH_Chia Isn't it ironic how Nintendo's shitty behaviours, which have all been justified as "stopping criminal activity" despite no actual laws being broken, are driving people to not buy their products and in some cases actually pirate their games out of spite?

@Scrubings You are the first friend I saw with issues. I seen all new consoles having issues but hoped it was so little. Even Nintendo had issues with first gen switch but man. I had hoped it was mostly just the damn download bug. Sorry man

1. The Nintendo 64 was a big flop, despite it having some good games, and it's Nintendo's fault. Hell, they didn't even fix the issue by the GameCube.

What's Nintendo deal with all of this? Doug Bowser is in charge so what's the problem. Reggie once said "No Johns". And said that he will practice so he can beat people in the game. So if Reggie likes the competitive scene, then why not the rest of Nintendo ? #FreeMelee

@awsumsas @cleveru16605923 @NintendoAmerica Disrupting a company's ability to do something is really effective actually? If they start to get overwhelmed by the number of calls about it they'll be forced to make a statement again, potentially another PR hole, or deliver subpar service to other callers.

@NintendoAmerica Dear butthurt Melee fans, Will you stop, Melee is a rushed game (I think) and therefore very broken. Nintendo doesn't hate you, you're just making a big deal of something that I think is very much minor, so stop being a whining crybaby, and do something not toxic for once!
