@TAHK0 I think there are still plenty of great options for N64 games. I really hope we get some of the weird forgotten third party games. I genuinely want to see Chameleon Twist, Extreme-G, Quest 64, and so much more. I don't want the service to just be "Nintendo's Greatest Hits".

@StaticMoss_ Hey guys, Nintendo here. We’re having trouble with the polygons in Links left peck. We’re gonna have to delay the game until 2035 so we can fix this issue. Thank you for your understanding, and we will be taking preorders at the end of this direct

@jetthejudge @MannyWASD @GoodGameKofi Here the difference. With the NES and SNES you will hear and see more people bring up Nintendo games and titles than the third party titles. That the point. You dont get that with PS1 or PS2 unless you're talking Gran Turismo or what was under Sony. Crash and Spyro

@Failboat103 Nintendo's paid online service is terrible, and there's no native voice chat. Better to get a Steam Deck if you want portable and free online gaming, with native voice chat. On Deck, you can run 2 games at once, so you can play another game while you connect, unlike Switch.

@Hakeemhb33 Sales actually don't matter when it's a service based game. Player count dies because it's a constant flow of income. Sony has the Sales and so does Nintendo but Microsoft has replayability games. Why do u think Sony doesn't want to lose COD? That's money they will lose.

especially when the only "identical" items are the Nintendo Switches (Nintendos Switch?). Computers, tablets, and phones are all different manufacturers and years purchased. When phones are connected to internet through mobile service provider, they are FINE.

@WatcherJoshua I do think we’ll get weirder ones, but I also think third party games have been harder for nintendo to put on the service because companies want to rerelease them themselves, which is at least a good argument why nintendo might want to add the next system.

@SpawnWaveMedia John I want to bring this up. Your livestreams ALWAYS get deleted when you go offline. Your channel only does that. Other YouTubers like Switchforce/Nintendo prime/others still have their past livestreams up. It may be a settings issue. Maybe you can resolve it in time ?

@Regike_ oh, didn't read the wired thingy. Idk if dust can block it, but it'd be worth the try. try contacting Nintendo support, they probably can tell you something or fix it for you, but I think they only fix the normal joycons

TM06 💿: Splatting on Splatoon 3
(@trsrpc) reported
@Bioalpha @micramanic Right Sony does it with some of their classic games, idk why they can't Nintendo do the same. I think they know if they do a service they'll get more out of it by making a emulator, slapping an overlay and adding games, instead of individualizing them.

Loving splatoon 3 but man the netcode sucks. Randomly will have tons off egg lag in SR or hit delays in ranked. Biggest problem with the game by far, im sure the bugs will get ironed out but i dont trust Nintendo to have good online sadly

@ActualBlueBluTw @HomeAloneMeme @KoldKirby Sakurai isn't the one doing it, it's Nintendo. If you don't buy their products, they wont **** up. Simple as. I have the right, no, the OBLIGATION to **** on ALL Nintendo games, products, tweets, and fanboys until they fix their **** up and let us play in tournaments.

@TheSmashToons Although I don't expect it, I'm hoping out for ARMS 2. Anything else aside? Maybe some BOTW2 news, something for the Nintendo Switch Online service, to name a few.

@DisneyDLV I love the game and I play it on my Nintendo switch. however I get this message that says that software shut down as an error occurs, I don't know why that message happens and it does shut the game right after it appears.

Nintendo straight up lied about Splatoon 3 being built on a new internet server system because this communication error BS is far worse than Splatoon 2's ever was
