    @Pirat_Nation Actually Nintendo isn't the problem as they actually offered to help Game Freak, and Game Freak ******* refused

    @MiguelGX9 @mrpyo1 And? I’m pointing out hypocrisy. If Pyo buys and enjoy every TLOU remaster then why is it a problem for Nintendo to offer a 10$ upgrade as well?

    @badlydrawnwott @FerrisWheelPro Fix me, because I was the biggest Nintendo fan until around 2019. I bought switch 1 day one. I came home disappointed playing 3 player Mario kart. On my 4k tv it looked so bad. Then the N64 online came out and was worse than emulators on my PC. I was done with the crap.

    @Xbox_Series_XS Nintendo is terrified of all these handheld PC that can easily emulate their hardware. Maybe they wouldn't have that problem if they made real hardware

    How @NoMansSky released cross save with Nintendo switch 2, have it be absolutely broken and unable to play cross save, after people paid for the product for a second time. To not even acknowledge it is diabolical behaviour.

    @nightopiaz @lightskinpalace Granted, you could make a case about how it should be sold at a loss. But this has been an issue with Nintendo forever, and not exactly a Switch 2 issue, as much as a Nintendo issue.

    @tash__i @jukins5 @pushsquare The switch 2 is selling faster then the PS5 and switch 1 were selling at launch 💀 No, Nintendo themselves confirmed they shipped enough units so they wouldn't have issues with stocks.

    @ALegendaryDrops Blame Nintendo for starting it. It's how corporations work. Gamepass is a way to add value to customers. I don't like $80 and no game should be $80. But blaming MS for making their already great service look even better because Nintendo decided to pull the trigger is stupid.

    @uniformcritic They're designed to stand out. They sure do. Look at the TD one in Toronto or the Nintendo one in Seattle. No amount of complaining will fix it. They're awful and they're here to stay.

    @Nintendeal It's basically an Xbox controller, dude. Why not give the respect to Xbox. They made Nintendo and Playstation fix their lanky controller designs by make the prototype controller.

    @brielarson @NintendoAmerica You could have purchased several of these with no problems, as you're a washed-up celebrity Why do you get to receive a free one?

    @NintendoAmerica Well now that money isnt an issue for me I was going to buy one today, but ofcourse everything is out of stock because its too hard to learn that happens every time. So I'm buying a steam deck instead and only emulating nintendo games from this point forward. This is stupid.

    @Pirat_Nation Nintendo has actual QC and their consoles doesn’t come broken out of the box.

    @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

    @Grummz Are you really going to ignore the games that have been priced at $100+ the past few years because you just plain want to jump onto the hate bandwagon for attention? There’s been years of this high price but suddenly now it’s an issue because Nintendo.

    @SW1TCHBLXDE ok so you would need an update and internet to update so you would not be able to with a fresh system or a system you had to restore and a fresh cart. this would be an issue if/when nintendo offlines the servers/shop. both are pretty common scenarios

  • NatorMVP
    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?

    But I was not meaned any of these things. You was just assumed I meant that but I wrote something else. Yes, I wrote it is risky, I still think that and if this risk will not go well then PS and Nintendo lost competitor and on the contrary, they will hardlock more games into consoles than before because will have enough of users for that. But yeah, I also think would be good if Xbox would go well with console working along PC system. But what I was really critizing that Xbox Rog Ally do not solving any of that. It is Xbox device that do not working at Xbox system. It is just next Win device just optimised to compete with Steam OS. That is only purpose of device.

    @GTBreezy_ @Imladris1893 @PostUp_SOG Okay so what you're saying is it's Xbox doing this to get everyone over to gamepass to then raise the price?? Is that why Nintendo is doing $80 games as well?? The reaching to hate on gamepass is getting old. It's a good service.

    @Xtremeisthebest @Pirat_Nation Nintendo is doing the LEAST. thats the problem. Nintendo runs pokemon btw, they have some say in how it works & the funding for it. if the game is *** we can blame the runners of the pokemon series but its also owned by Nintendo who oversees it, some fault is on them

    im honestly shocked no one woke has brought up how the inventor of Donkey Kong said in a Nintendo Power issue in like 2003 that he based the character and world of Donkey Kong on minstrel shows….like wtf. is Nintendo that powerful they can just bury ****** up **** like that?

    @kazzy_115 Maybe youre young but the last crash introduced 70-80 dollar Nintendo games 70 sega games....you kids don't know how good we have it. If games adjusted like everything else we'd already be at $100 games

    $80 will work on Nintendo fans and 1st party Nintendo games, but the rest of the industry is going to find out. Fast track to AAA game market crash, esp if they keep virtue signaling in games, offering stale content, and lots of bugs.
