    The thing that hyped me the most about the Nintendo direct was that I can play deltarune ch 2 without problem

    I JUST REMEMBERED THE FACT THAT NINTENDO NOW HAS SEGA GENESIS GAMES AS A PART OF THEIR ONLINE SERVICE. THAT IS SO FREAKING FUNNY.

    Nintendo has ***** charging a premium membership for arguably their worst online service.

    @NintendoAmerica If it really will be the very last DLC character it has to be something big. Something like Phoneix Wright, Fortnite (People really wabnt this wtf) wouldnt be the best choice. Master Chief, Sora,Waluigi, Crash or something would be great to finish this game

    I do find it funny that news outlets were talking all about Gameboy stuff for Nintendo Online and it just so happened to be the Mega Drive. N64 sure, likely but HECKING SEGA? Paves a good way forward for just an all retro online service

    @NintendoAmerica Put Perfect Dark in the service and once it is, the N64 controller is a day 1 purchase 👌

    @autumnull_ Wait, how can an *** be too big? That's a problem? Damn you, Nintendo

    the nintendo subscription service for n64 games is ******* bullshit, and people will still buy it either way

  • CrispityCrunchy
    Crispy Crunchy (@CrispityCrunchy) reported

    Why did Nintendo reveal games that will eventually be on their N64 service rather than just adding them at launch? It makes no logical sense.

    @ThatGuyShen Nintendo direct. They doing the same thing they did for their online service but this time charging a separate extra charge. They stopped porting over NES and SNES though.

    @NintendoAmerica after my 132 years of service to Nintendo. I've decided to move to Playstation. Where their shows are very much better and I feel better about myself. Giving me the games I deserve.

  • nb1316

    Well, @NintendoAmerica I won't deny that seeing Banjo-Kazooie in the Online+ lineup was a tiny bit tempting, but I really hate the idea of subscribing to games instead of buying them. The only reason I get the base Online service is because it's the only way to play Smash online.

    So they give nintendo online dlc for their garbo service...thanks just fix yo garbage service

    I feel sad about Bayonetta 3. It’s cool that it’s being funded by Nintendo, but I’m sure the game design is handicapped by the lagging hardware in the Switch. Can’t help but to think how great it would be on the PS5 or Series X. Oh well.

  • JerradWyche
    Jerrad Wyche (@JerradWyche) reported

    The fidelity on Bayonetta 3 is...something. I'm just bothered people are cool with Nintendo charging more for a subpar service just so we can play straightforward ports with no added value.

  • Kirbizard
    Kirbz (@Kirbizard) reported

    The only bad news is that Nintendo seem to think their online service is actually worth money, so they've made an upgrade option instead of actually adding value to where it's needed #NintendoDirect

    @NintendoAmerica For a minute I thought Kirby was gonna meet crash and ask to join smash

  • The_LordX

    Saw a lot of "OMG N64 games!" on my timeline, but well... aside from having little to no connection with the N64... I do not care about giving Nintendo even more money for their ****** online quality lol Fix the actual online quality & then I'll care.

    My Nintendo Direct Rating was 5 out of 10 (average). Nintendo was noncommittal on nearly everything. From release dates to pricing for their new internet service. Also, they didn't show BOTW2 or even mention it.

    Was trying to watch Dashie’s reaction video/stream to the Nintendo direct but he deleted it (I’m guessing because of the mic issues) ;;

  • _DylanDoodle
    DylanDoodle (alt :D) (@_DylanDoodle) reported

    @AndrewIG Theyre really charging extra for 64 and Genesis games with the Online service. Nintendo pumps out boring, dumb **** in their directs and then sprinkles one or two good announcements. We get like 10 rpgs and one or two Nintendo IPs. The directs are progressively getting worse

  • MrMockRock
    MockRock (@MrMockRock) reported

    Nintendo really just took a look at their online service and said "we're being too generous here," huh?

  • IFrickenChicken

    Paying extra for N64 and Nintendo's ****** online service is tragic. Just sell me a one time purchase for your **** emulator

    I hope some agreement can be made and they eventually put Goldeneye on that Nintendo 64 service.

    Nah fr. @nintendo @NintendoAmerica pls fix your online serves to where it is playable. We would be way more excited to play these titles online with people if online was better 😓

    @NintendoAmerica Charging even more for roms gor a service that barely work, good job Nintendo, you found a way to make it worst

  • xxpanther129
    Scott (@xxpanther129) reported

    That direct felt like the big things are being saved for a later date honestly. KOTOR's original 2003 release coming to switch is funny with the recent remake reveal. From what I've heard, they should fix the online before charging more... But it's Nintendo. #NintendoDirect

    Fighting NYC rush hour traffic on the subway to the airport, and trying to watch the Nintendo Direct was not working, but y'all's tweets kept me in the game
