  @CHARMERS96 I think the **** reality is the games were gonna be 80 whether Nintendo did it or not. We need a industry crash like yesterday

  It is, you’re giving me an argument with no way to prove it. You just saying it doesn’t mean it’s true. I can’t find a single example that proves Sony and Xbox don’t do the same thing. Also I would argue even if it was a problem with only Nintendo, which it’s not, they just filled over 3 million console preorders on day 1. The most video game consoles sold on day 1 of all time. Thats the opposite of scarcity. Also they sold twice as many console as the ps5. Opposite of scarcity. I’m talking about consoles only right now.

  @Alfredo_Toons @makio_jroses I understand the difference, GameFreak codes while Nintendo publishes, not even accounting for Creatures Inc’s third of the ownership. The problem is that on average there’s a new set of pokemon mainline games every 3 years, not accounting everything else like sidegames & (1/2)

  @DramaAlert Not getting the issue here, honestly, why is this a problem now? She wasn't a Nintendo employee nor Nintendo was attached to her in any possible way except for a temporal contract every now and then...

  @PropaneMan92 @Nintendo I mean, your community has been making up words for years, why is it a problem now

  @ConnorOhOne @makio_jroses I don't understand how or why Nintendo would impose a deadline, especially considering they are known for delaying their own games if they don't meet their standards. If you can't understand the difference between The Pokémon Company and Nintendo then you are part of the problem.

  @TheHylian64 I really do hope they fix this with an update. I'm not optimistic because it's Nintendo, but hey, we finally got a favorites feature on Echoes of Wisdom after they pushed back against all the menu complaints for so long. So I guess it's not impossible :3

  @Kneon The main issue is with Nintendo their first party games rarely go on sale.

  @SomeKirbyFan and it will launch with thousands more games than the switch 2 with 0 fee to pay for ****** online service. 50 dollars a year for limited emulation vs emulating every nintendo game ever minus the one 90$ mario kart game lol

  How @NoMansSky released cross save with Nintendo switch 2, have be absolutely broken and unable to play cross save, after people paid for the product for a second time. To not even acknowledge it is diabolical behaviour.

  Probably not a broken move but one time when one of my English teachers brought in her Nintendo switch to play games and we played ssbu I played as snake and just spammed his crouching Jab and somehow it was just able to beat them, the only counterplay they found was to play Ness

  incredibly pathetic QC of nintendo for having battery issues this early ...

  @Grummz imo its not even the price, but just bad customer service/quality lately. i miss old nintendo. im passing for now.

  @onlyhereforpkmn It's one of the few games with backwards compatibility issues Nintendo has already talked about it being worked on lol

• 
  Burke (@burke7187) reported 34 minutes ago

  I have much less of an issue with a game like this being $80 than a Nintendo game that could have been made two gens ago and that has a much smaller team and dev cycle. It's just where the industry is going.

  Seabass (@callmebigfish) reported 35 minutes ago

  @Nintendo It’s literally the same console u guys had already but faster loading lol heard the nunchucks still have the same issue, this isn’t a switch 2 they just slightly modified the old switches they didn’t sell and resold them to you for $500 more bucks ): and now ur games are more exp

  Kj Superstar(OKARUN) (@kjcole0811) reported 36 minutes ago

  @tk_the_kitsune @KingNarukami45 Problem is that Nintendo are getting the cards from a different manufacturer so unless they have another option, 64 is all 3rd party has and they hate losing money so game cards are cheaper even though I’m not a huge fan. Madden is 61 and that’s using a game keycard

  Spouik (@Spouik_) reported 36 minutes ago

  @ABitofEpicness @NintendoAmerica It's probably an issue with the compatibility layer like the squid roll glitch in Splatoon 3, there are always issues like this with this kind of backward compat systems I'm pretty sure they'll patch it soon

  Khem Wright (@_Rondo5) reported 43 minutes ago

  @GameOverThirty Ignoring what console warriors would say, I think it's an issue of messaging and marketing. Nintendo and Sony are extremely clear about what they're selling, what you're buying, and what it does. Microsoft launched the "This is an XBOX" branding to help the message...we'll see.

  @Xtremeisthebest @Pirat_Nation Nintendo is doing the LEAST. thats the problem. Nintendo runs pokemon btw, they have some say in how it works & the funding for it. if the game is *** we can blame the runners of the pokemon series but its also owned by Nintendo who oversees it, some fault is on them

  @SignoreBravo @Zuby_Tech The way the industry now has completely changed. The only platform that really sticks to its roots is Nintendo, who don't put their games anywhere else. The issue now is the financial viability with the rising development costs and the companies wanting to turn profits

  @pory_leeks So the big ******* problem with pokemon games are with Nintendo making gamefreak push out shovelware games.

  @MucharV @ShadowzPaine @Nintendo That’s the thing about these triggered troons. They project their problems onto you with pathetic insults then block you

• 
  Danuki 🦝 (@DanukiTheTanuki) reported 54 minutes ago

  @Marthware The issue lies with Nintendo and studio managers prioritizing cutting corners, low risks, no attention to the little details, focusing on DEI at the expense of the final result. Developers share the blame too, some create toxic workplaces or lack the competence needed

  Detvan SK (@DetvanS) reported 60 minutes ago

  But I was not meaned any of these things. You was just assumed I meant that but I wrote something else. Yes, I wrote it is risky, I still think that and if this risk will not go well then PS and Nintendo lost competitor and on the contrary, they will hardlock more games into consoles than before because will have enough of users for that. But yeah, I also think would be good if Xbox would go well with console working along PC system. But what I was really critizing that Xbox Rog Ally do not solving any of that. It is Xbox device that do not working at Xbox system. It is just next Win device just optimised to compete with Steam OS. That is only purpose of device.

  China put DRM in Solar panels... the way to attack this is a blanket ban on any kind of remote-activated DRM. Not just China, but Nintendo, John Deere, all sorts of companies do this. It needs to stop as it's a national security issue.

  @PopPizzaMan @Paige40329935 @ShitpostRock I don't think that all Nintendo dose is good, but many are, they saved companies and they are one of the last company that delayed done games just to bug fix. Not everything is good, but we'll at least Nintendo is hiring instead of closing studios.

  @Pirat_Nation Actually Nintendo isn't the problem as they actually offered to help Game Freak, and Game Freak ******* refused

  @uniformcritic They're designed to stand out. They sure do. Look at the TD one in Toronto or the Nintendo one in Seattle. No amount of complaining will fix it. They're awful and they're here to stay.
