Mooc (@MucharV) reported@PropaneMan92 @Nintendo I mean, your community has been making up words for years, why is it a problem now

🍃💚Nemi The Meowscarada💚🍃 🏳️⚧️ (@MeowscaradaNemi) reportedThere are only a few things I agree with Nintendo on but most of everything they have done...I do not support. All I can be thankful for is that they made online subscriptions cheaper than Xbox and even PlayStation. At least more affordable. I don't like that they made their online service a subscription based thing just to follow along with PlayStation and Xbox but I am happy that they are cheaper for me to afford.

RG | Porkpants 🥓👖 (@NatorMVP) reported@Sadcat42069 @ModernVintageG Because Nintendo first party games are very polished, high quality, no day 1 patch games. Nintendo launched a new console with a new multiplayer game and it worked. How many new online games have server issues the first couple of days?

ChiefBee (@johnditty321) reported@GameSpot Will cost $89.99 to sign in to your account through the Nintendo server

duby149 (@duby149) reported@JuiceMan_V 450$ for the switch system was never the problem, the 80$ games and charging a few to unlock the better performance for old games was the real issue people had. Also now its turns out game chat is locked behind a pay wall too, Nintendo is pulling some real greedy moves.

sho (@desmosaddict) reportedcrazy how nintendo didnt fix any of the issues people complained about with the switch 1 when releasing the switch 2
-
Static (@StaticManiaArt) reported@dgxchvz @yggdrasilsaltar ...how can Mario steal from Crash if Crash isn't the first series to do a thing? Good job trying to skirt you original point --- Mini-turbos come from the original Mario Kart. Diddy Kong Racing is from a sub-series Mario. F-Zero (a Nintendo game) did anti-grav before Crash.

Shadow Fox Infinite (@ShadowFoxArche) reported@Eien1239 Yeah all the PC handhelds have this, but that isn’t the problem- seamless transition is. The thing needs a dock, and instant transition from docked/undocked, and instant resume from PC/Xbox. Otherwise, it can’t come close to what Nintendo is doing and why Switch is popular.
-
Moove Over (@ZoieNolan1) reported@NextGenPlayer There was a world parts shortage in 2020 thanks to the COVID pandemic. Because of this, both Sony and Xbox struggled to produce enough units to meet demand. That is no longer an issue in 2025, Nintendo has access to it's parts. So I feel like this is an unfair comparison.
-
Eragon_RH (@Eragon_RH) reported@onlyhereforpkmn It's one of the few games with backwards compatibility issues Nintendo has already talked about it being worked on lol
-
Charles d'Espagne (@hispanrex) reported@sagdivide32257 @onlyhereforpkmn They did, don’t be silly. Nintendo already made it publicly known even before the switch 2 became available that Pikmin 3 specifically was one of the game that had compatibility issues. They have a dedicated website for this.
-
The Abysmal Critic: HorrorAmorata (@HAmorata) reportedThe one thing no one wants to practice that kills the full price issue is patience. Wait and you can get any game at a discount. Nintendo being the only exception, but they also don't have a game pass option for new releases. Since I play mainly PC games, the physical argument is already been toasted. But I'm not willing to budge over owning my games. FOMO is the one thing that really gives Games as a Service air.

saxy asian (@djKrispyKale) reported@KyleJamesOlson @FerrisWheelPro It’s all opinion based at this point. The corporations have a hand in it all. Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, Nvidia, Ubisoft etc. The only thing left to do is wait for the gaming crash. Until then, make your own joy where you can find it
-
Vivi 🦭 (@SealYamamura) reported@PiperistheNewbl Nintendo apparently pays him to do this but that brings up the bigger issue of companies wasting the tech they made with slave labour
-
Kitastrophe (@Kitastrophe_Ra) reportedNintendo claims the Switch 2 Joy-Cons are built from the ground up—but stick drift is still a problem. They literally copied the internal design. Clearly, the only lesson they took from past consoles is that people will keep paying to replace broken controllers/Joy-Cons. #Gaming #Switch2 #NintendoSwitch2
