Nintendo at least talked with Activision about bringing the Bandicoot to fight. Nintendo has bounds of respect for Crash, and Activision did alot to bring the new game to the Switch. Crash fans are crazy for a good reason.

@SomaQz FFI for NES after getting my first issue of Nintendo Power which happened to be the Final Fantasy strategy guide. Played through it way too many times as a kid.

@NintyPrime Simple fix, find an unpatched model, sideload NVIDIA Shield OS, download Netflix and enjoy... Or just use one of the other devices most ppl have around that has it already. Nintendo would have to cut a deal with Netflix probably raising the cost of a Switch. Want more pay more

tbh I could probably bring my switch to school and no one would care but I once got in trouble for bringing my Nintendo with me in middle school so.... I'm not risking it because a teacher got mad at me 5 years ago rip

@ChunkyKongDK1 So basically you lag, it’s not your fault when you lag because Nintendo’s online service isn’t the greatest and people are mad because you’re using “Wifi character” and calling you carried

@King_Darian I thought it was only wiping the 3DS internal memory that would disconnect your previous purchases. Were they tied to a current Nintendo Network account?

@Fawfulthgreat64 @NintendoAmerica I’ve got a whole lot of problems with TTYD, despite still liking it. Which, kinda goes the same with sticker star. I have a lot of issues with sticker star, but I still was able to have a good time with it

@Cheers2M @NintendoAmerica @tokenizedtweets because if Big Companies that get Buttmad about IP Theft see people owning their promotional material see they will sue NFT minters until it stops being a problem (btw this is some rando's ETH wallet, not mine)

I hate how my fellow Nintendo fans defend Nintendo's terrible online service, while Sony is constantly giving quality games free each month and Microsoft has gamepass Ultimate which is honestly a steal at its current price.

@DataErase Nintendo Power (when it was run in-house) doubled down on the last name being Mario as canon in an issue around Super Mario Sunshine's release

@Crusader3456 @RobertDoez The problem is that looking at sales numbers xbox gamers don't buy rpgs at the rate sony/Nintendo fans do...there's a reason those previous xbox rpgs never got sequels.

@90sNostalgiaGuy I'm amazed it took Nintendo that long to finally get online on their classic games and even then, it's locked behind a subscription service.

@Robert0726Rolfe @MiKAuditore @JezCorden Microsoft could easily by Ubisoft or Square without running into monopoly issues. There would still be EA, Activision, WB, Sony, Nintendo, Valve, Epic, Bandi, etc. To be considered a monopoly there would have to fewer large companies.

Crash is the only character I don't believe Nintendo just turned away from. It's too good of an opportunity.

You can blame Nintendo's garbage infrastructure, but only so much. There are far less disconnections on other games on the system with opponents from varying distances and connections. So let me know when they fix that. Game's fun. Getting to the game sucks.

Logic Problem: You see three guards standing in front of three doors. One guard is an *** man, another is a boob man, and another is your wife’s boyfriend. You don’t know which is which. What yes or no question can you ask to determine which door leads to your Nintendo Switch

@TitanfallBlog @ChadGrenier Will they fix the lag in the voice chat for nintendo switch. It keeps on cutting in and out to the point where you cannot hear what your teammates are saying, although they can apparently hear me.

Sorry for the delay. My switch (the networking kind, not the Nintendo kind) suddenly took a crap for no discernable reason, and now it's... fine? I think? I dunno, I'm pretty skeptical. Hate having to troubleshoot intermittent issues like this...
