Onik Dovahkiin (@ODovahkiin) reportedMan, where to start... Are you aware that you can buy games on Xbox as well? They even give you 20% discount for being a Game Pass patron. As for the second half... Xbox makes between 400 to 500 million dollars per month. That's half a billion for average monthly revenue per user. 1 billion every 2 months is stupid money. Also, they have stated numerous times that GP is profitable. Why do you think they doubled and trippled down on it? Now they're making more money by selling on PS stores yes. But I already have IRL buddies jumping ships to PC or Xbox just for Game Pass alone. The service is ridiculously good. Now with an Xbox handheld OTW it's getting crazier with PC exclusive peeps jumping on board. Some of ya'll aren't seeing what Xbox is doing atm, they're literally infiltrating other platforms. And that's not good as well. It will create a monopoly one day. Look at the attached pictures btw. Xbox studios published 11 games this year (Team Ninja is the outlier), Sony studios only 2 on my count so far (Sucker Punch and Bungie is the outlier here). Where do you think Xbox is getting all this money pumping out games at this magnitude? Only Nintendo holds true exclusives. The days of traditional consoles died a year or 2 ago. And this is sad.

GT | Bees? 🆖 (@Bees_ssbu) reportedBeen having a lot of wifi issues with the Switch 2 as of recent. Can't explain why, hopefully Nintendo puts in a system update that fixes it.

ShaggyMH (@xHrdcoreShaggyx) reported@CHARMERS96 I think the **** reality is the games were gonna be 80 whether Nintendo did it or not. We need a industry crash like yesterday

Craig"CAPTURED on PS5 "Harris (@CraigHarris456) reported@nortonsflyer @DoWhatYouDo6 Yes, b/c it doesn't. Nintendo and Sony don't have the same issue that MS had, however Sony has the Business meeting in a few days, so have to wait and see what they are going to do.

Bronze Beard (@RealBronzeBeard) reportedIt is, you’re giving me an argument with no way to prove it. You just saying it doesn’t mean it’s true. I can’t find a single example that proves Sony and Xbox don’t do the same thing. Also I would argue even if it was a problem with only Nintendo, which it’s not, they just filled over 3 million console preorders on day 1. The most video game consoles sold on day 1 of all time. Thats the opposite of scarcity. Also they sold twice as many console as the ps5. Opposite of scarcity. I’m talking about consoles only right now.

Lord Kardok (@LordKardok) reportedMy opinion on the Switch 2 has changed... slightly. The EULA problems have been clarified and we now have a better understanding of what we are agreeing on. I still don't like the notion that you can't sue Nintendo for anti-consumer practices, but you do, in fact, own the system.

DragonStar Errorita (@DS_the_Echidna) reportedClosing statement. This isn’t a skill issue, as most of it is just clutter from the amount of players. My sibling said ”you only have fun when you’re winning” IM NOT HAVING FUN BECAUSE ITS JUST STRAIGHT UP FRUSTRATING. This was a huge downgrade from 8 deluxe. Do better Nintendo.

Games Awesome (@jabdsqksnb11857) reported4/ The Switch's Joy-Con Drift: Trust Issues? 🎮🔧 Nintendo faced criticism for the Joy-Con drift issue, as many players experienced problems shortly after purchase. This led to lawsuits and demands for better quality control. #NintendoSwitch #JoyConDrift

Stephen (@lostfrog1357) reported@SteelSupport My Arctis Nova 7P doesn't show up as a sound output device on my Nintendo Switch 2. The system sees the headset as a USB microphone, though. I can't find anything about this issue. Are there plans to resolve it with a firmware update?

Vanity (@Vanityshii) reported@jonathancigaret @iiWhiskey @Nick_Marseil well playstation isn’t trying to be a streaming service. They still want to sell consoles and console exclusives is how they do that, same as nintendo

Kuchi @ Neo RGamePH 🎮🏇🎤 (@KuchiSeiyuGamer) reportedThe free to play Power Pro baseball game for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch by Konami is closing down its service
-
TempestWolfVT (@tempestwolfvt) reported@OutOfPocketChum @LaprasKnowsBest @ArtistNcs It really comes down to picking your poison. Regardless, Nintendo fans will most likely get it. The best thing anyone can do is just to know what you're buying, what to expect for issues, and so on.

How-to Gaming (@how_togaming) reported@Allkiller87 @CJsDiarry @Dexerto So am I. Mario Kart World is so fun. This guy will just stay bored, it’s a personal problem at this point. He and all of the other haters protests on Switch 2 and Nintendo have failed, as reports are saying that 3 million Switch 2s were moved to consumers hands on launch day
-
ITZ J1MB0 (@ITZJ1MB0) reported@hangryhiggs I have a problem with $80 games because it is pricing out people that want to own games and experience then. Sure there are sales and price drops but its just greed for the sake of it. Like 4 Nintendo games puts you down £240 pound like WHAT.

Hayley (@LayzierHayley) reported@PiperistheNewbl It's not a waste. What he's doing is a public service and really Nintendo should do this themselves.
