@ClaireOfTheRace @PlayApex You might notice none of these are hosted on the nintendo online service? Plus having lower performance in singleplayer is okay cause you're not competing against anyone

@bigmike102477 @Dreology619 @Danpoo4sho Demo ran great has way more variety of monsters compared to world which had mostly dragons, and jrpg fix is the switch but they are full priced nintendo taxed so they'll be cheaper on ps

@Kelvin_Arce_ @ZhugeEX Ah yes because a “games as a service” that uses an art style that many games use (Nintendo didn’t create that style) is ripping off a single player game that has two payed dlc’s

@HeathKirchart7 I have no idea! Are they even gone on patreon? Maybe they had copyright issues with Nintendo!

@ReloadGV @Annisir_Kaugan Part of being raised by Nintendo of America, there's this urge to lick broken computer parts & blow on them, see if that makes them work again. Just one more round, I promise...!

@RealDerZocker @kertgartner @benjedwards was it Nintendo Power or Club Nintendo? sorry, was gonna see if the issue was in the scanned archives of Retromags :)

@MarioNevarez200 @WayneClear @IGN Nintendo takes NDA's seriously. Netflix didn't clamp down on that hard enough, and that resulted in a broken promise. I can't reasonably blame Nintendo for not wanting to work with oath-breakers.

@strumbum_fs @RapidPilot2 @Zeddby Im a boot licker because i dont support pirating games that you dont own? (which is literally a crime and is basically theft). Nintendo does shitty stuff but no one is arguing that you should steal games, if have a problem with a company, just don't buy their ****

@Aiorax "Hardware limitations" are why the Wii was much cheaper, and with "the controller gimmick", they outsold other consoles for years. You're saying this like they were problems but they were ASSETS to Nintendo's industry ********** against ps3/360 when Wii was fully supported.

@Spinellaby No I think the issue will be Nintendo and The Pokémon Company because of how dense they are

smash and mario maker's online issues are born out of design choices in how they handle latency, not the base infrastructure, otherwise every other online nintendo game would suffer their issues. i can guarantee you they will not get better. do not get your hopes up.

@XboxGamePass Don't you guys want to expand your service into other countries? It is weird and it is as if you guys don't even want to compete with PS or Nintendo around here. I believe Microsoft can be a worthy opponent because PS is dominant around here and the price keeps increasing.

@drew_graber @IGN Oh please; considering the other party was the same one who's top brass approved of releasing the ****-dream movie Cuties on their service, Nintendo actually helped us dodge a bullet here. Screw Netflix.

@he_burntmyshake @Parappa_GANG Ah yes, let's ignore the terrible connection issues that can literally ruin the experience because Nintendo is just not giving half of a ****. How is massive input lag in a fighting game acceptable? Even Mario Maker has tons of lag. Steam has free ******* online and works better.
