@SMetaldave64 Got mine, no issue, even after the initial release date. Glad that Nintendo will restock so we can see the scalpers dry up.

@GumOnGround @NachoL__ If the game devs actually allowed an early access of some sort, then perhaps joining a hacked lobby to play it for a brief seems a little extreme, and besides, we know Nintendo. Won’t fix games, but will ban you for slight hacking

@blstar969 Some Nintendo employees already know about the glitch already when you go to report it because so many people have been reporting it already

****** up that the online service for Just Dance 2022 is already closed down on Nintendo switch so I’ll never be able to learn how to do the “john wayne - lady gaga” dance routine

Ok but can't Nintendo just fix Steve's "game breaking" bug, and crises averted?

@Demonica0 @JoeMerrick @AceTrainerLiam No, they won’t. Those are Nintendo’s number one game boy selling games so you’re cool with them, putting it behind a paid subscription service.

@playpokemon @NintendoAmerica Can we also fix the lagging on the in-game play cause while I'm playing the game I still get some lag or maybe the lag has never been fixed

People think banning steve will somehow get nintendo to patch the game and nerf him for some reason and i dont get why, we had a hashtag trending during the pandemic about ults ****** online hoping to get enough attention drawn to it so they would fix it and nothing

@alphaINTEL @JakeSucky How about this: Play whatever input device or system you want. If you are having fun with a certain something, don't let others tell you what is good and what is bad. I play on a Nintendo Switch at 30 FPS on a Controller (I gave Dexterity Issues, so I can't play MNK) and it's fun

@llouck7 The people saying Xbox will die without ABK are probs the same people proclaiming the death of Nintendo after the Wii U, and look at them now. Xbox would need several failed acquistions before even considering being in trouble.

Instead of trying to get nintendo to fix it, harass Microsoft and then they will harass nintendo for us

@TechnoKoi @OwenLLCfoster @destructoid No way Nintendo doesn't host the cloud version. It's the only way they can guarantee the service is consistent and stable.They also don't want to share how to stream to a switch. They don't even allow Netflix you think they provide software to devs to capture and send switch data

@EA and @TheSims teams out here trying to do what @NintendoAmerica does with their paid online service is not it. If the content is available on console it should be the same for PC. PC has a subscription model as well.

@Diddy_Kong33 Steve ******* killed the internet when he was revealed Btw, replace Red with Sans Geno with Waluigi Crash with Master Chief And Freddy with Eevee or an another Nintendo character and it'd be better.

@DeekeTweak If Sony puts day one games on PS Plus it will have far more subscribers than GamePass. If Nintendo launches a cloud service with all its large IPs it will likely have more subscribers than PS and Xbox

@tabris_spl @ProChara Also they'll always have potential European Championships in mind, which discourages long-term multinational teams even if they don't have issues with language. If Nintendo announced the format wasn't restrictive next time, I think we'd see more top teams forming & persisting.

@HookLineVG @astaranx Uh... no, it doesn't. This is not the definition of an ecosystem, if you not knowing the definition of words is the issue then you really shouldn't get snarky I can play Nintendo and Sony games on PC too, are they part of the ecosystem then?
