@CheckMark_Shame @therealturtloid @agcoffeelmao Yeah, that’s the problem. If they aren’t sponsored by SEGA like Sonic Speed Simulator is then making any money off of their IP is out of the question. They’re more lenient than Nintendo is in that regard, and I’m thankful to them for it.

Okay this is a lot wrong for a nintendo switch title and a game from a company thats worth over a billion, why does this game have so many frame issues, its not even doing things like breath of the wild in its world #PokemonScarlet

@rockadoodle88 @LoneSwordsman_ @ProChara I never once blamed my teammates i know it's Nintendo's fault And im sorry but don't think best multiplayer should go to a game that has as many experience effecting problems as Splatoon 3 does

If you have any reasons why I'm having these problems and please leave a comment but I contact the Nintendo support they literally done nothing and I'm about ready to just destroy it for a YouTube video because that's all it's good for.

@JeffGrubb It will go through. They're using Bethesda as an example of Microsoft monopoly. How many classic IPs can they take away from Sony/Nintendo anyway? Doom Wolfenstein Quake Elder Scrolls Fallout Prey Dishonored Diablo Crash Spyro Warcraft Starcraft Tony Hawk Guitar Hero What else?

@GrimDeath86 @Colteastwood @aarongreenberg Yeah a lot is delayed, but it doesnt change the fact XBox has a major issue getting out games. Sony can do it, Nintendo can do it. With XBox its always a promise of next year. Funny, they sure can get out new color controllers though.

@NintendoAmerica you need to get with #GameFreak and fix Pokemon Violet/Scarlett. A patch should've already been rolled out to fix issues and it's a slap in the face of your consumers that you just don't seem to care!!

@Treydemarked I don't see Nintendo having a problem with the composers for the Mario Movie uploading the soundtrack to Spotify, especially since they were okay with it in the past with some of their games. I guess we'll see though

MS also has had a lot of trouble with their first party studios and trying to build new ones hasn't been terribly successful. So what do they do? Why just buy up the publishers and all their studios and IPs, of course! But wait, don't Sony and Nintendo do this too? Well...

@Steel__Angel @Kyonko802 Shouldn't be too hard either. Only issue is that I wanna play it on Nintendo Switch. Guess it the modder job to repair this 4kids style mistranslation.

(@UnknownKadath) reported
First off, look at this big picture. MS has been struggling in the console market for a long time. Sony and Nintendo are doing quite well, and they are the market leaders depending on territories. MS realized they couldn't compete normally, so they're going subscription service.

@shadow_crystals @thegameawards @NintendoAmerica To you it was good, not to me. It was one of the areas I did not enjoy BOTW in, period. Yes and that is my issue with the game? I don't think that was the right direction to take the music in, Zelda usually has bangers but BOTW did not.

@DaddyDimmuTv Not necessarily, the issue is the platform is old technology wise and the studio needs to move on. Nintendo Switch 2, or whatever their 10th generation console will be called, is due out next year to pair with its 9th generation counterparts, PS5 / XSX. It's a power thing.

I dont think were headed toward a game crash, but I do think we're headed toward a game console crash because nintendo, sony, and microsoft are all making increasingly dumb decisions with no sign of stopping

@AllieRX @Ultima_Lord @OliverJia1014 There's the problem. This is a bad thing.... because how many proplr are going to be playing it? If servers go down, then I might see your point. Nintendo's official online servers will always be better because there are much more people.

@Taechuk @butterfIyloona @NintendoAmerica It's a garden, they can come up with something. Maybe they're hanging vines or something. Alternatively they could just have lakitu say you're going the wrong way and avoid the entire issue

@URA_Server @Woofingson @NintendoAmerica Oh I don’t really care either way. I just don’t see it as an issue. The gimmick doesn’t make me wanna buy it more or less. It’s just there and doesn’t bother me because I’m fine with gimmicks Not a fan of the church route tho
