@verge Nintendo should have been forced to do a recall a long time ago. And on top of not fixing it, they still left the problem in the newest OLED model.

@grogfella This has been a huge problem any time I’ve played Xbox. I was used to the Nintendo layout of ABYX and then I had to use BAXY. I’ve been considering getting an Xbox remote for PC, but this alone has me wanting a playstation remote instead even though the default is Xbox buttons.

@LuigiBlood Nintendo sometimes oversteps their obligations to protect their business and property, but not everything they do is "unforgivable" or "abuse". That's what pirates say when they're having trouble pirating.

@VGBC_GimR if there is an infinite then wouldn’t it be better to not come public with this ? i feel it’ll just cause worse problems because Nintendo is not patching the game anymore

@FortniteStatus can you help me understand why I can't sign into the game, I received an unexpected error message on my Xbox S, but I'm still able to play on my Xbox X & Nintendo Switch.

@SavioBriion You can do that but only if you’re subscribed to Nintendo Online (the paid service). As far as I can tell. So being there in person would be the free way to do it.

@grogfella I always liked this because it looks cool, like in assassin's creed, botw, etc. But... is finding the buttons really a problem? I usually play pc, nintendo and sony, and pressing the buttons feel so natural, idk, playing halo with ds4, when the game says "press ×", I press square

@mortivoree @PlayStation Yeah despite what I post I enjoy the consoles. I do it to mess with the ps fanbase mostly. My discrepancies with Xbox is lack of new content and leadership issues. PS i dislike the UI and their content lacking diversity. Nintendo I wish they would come out with refresh for Switch

@__Styx__ @justeunan PlayStation plus is the price of one entire game per year to get 3 free games every month as well as having retro games available to buy for $10 - $20. I Don't know too much about Nintendo's services but PlayStation has a phenomenal paid service even if the games randomly rotate.

@kapebeansies ou should do this on art of copyrighted material by companies that are overly protective of their copyright, such as Disney or Nintendo. This gets those awful art thief companies in big trouble.

@linusgsebastian Playstation: er, um, that guy...? XBOX: Master Chief Nintendo: Mario, Link, Samus, etc... kinda makes it easy to see why Nintendo just won't die, no matter how poor their service is, huh...

@LuigiBlood I see no reason to grade the severity of how often Nintendo responds to fan projects and which ones they target. The fact they hold the power at all is a problem.

@STAGEBLOQ @TWTHEREDDRAGON Sony wants Nintendo level sales so I don’t think day and date is happening anytime soon. The idea of day and date games on a service causes gamers to stop buying games. For example if Sony does day and date it will cause PlayStation gamers to stop buying games.

@OperationGolem @RTGraves Too bad my new 3ds is broken I'd love to play federation force again. Here's hoping Nintendo would remaster it for Switch.

@SmashTheOni @TASNoContext That doesn't really affect how audacious it is though. It was Nintendo not going through with it, not Sakurai's content, that was the problem.

Anyone have any experience with Nintendo Switch Pro Controller technical issues involving the d-pad? "Left" is capturing images, "Right" boots up games, "Up" and "Down" barely even work. I'm so lost on this. It worked fine yesterday.

@DKFanCaptRattly @ExpandDong15 @LuigiBlood Basically, if a fan makes a game about "Yoshi evading taxes" Nintendo is not going to bother because those aren't the type of games they make. But if a fan make a REMAKE, thats an issue
