@dumbdragon5 @willperkin_ well tbh nintendo games are good, just the console sucks, like ssbu would look better in 4k and not lagging.

@Tails_External @kaiiteaa Yes it is. But nintendo games are more family oriented and there's no big story to make the lack of growt seem like a problem, plus the characters don't even speak. But sega tried several times to give Sonic something serious and tragic like in forces or 06 >

The only problem is I'm not so sure Nintendo working with them will be able to fix Illuminations other major issues, mostly just being **** writing with all the tropes and **** jokes. But who knows I'll still see it cause cause my caveman brain gets excited when it sees Mario.

@NintendoAmerica I'm playing Splatoon 2 until you fix the awful ranked matching and the bugs.

@digrett @NintendoAmerica This “upgrade” pretty much ruins the game. I’m lucky to have a physical release so I reloaded vanilla with the update (have had no issues with update only). However I must note I completely deleted ALL saved data and game for a fresh install.

@Ballyman91 This is easily my favorite thing about the Nintendo Switch Online game service. Many of the games on it are ones I’ve genuinely wanted to play, but never wanted to spend the money on. Now I can boot it up, try it for five minutes, and never play it again without feeling bad.

Hey nintendo fans, does anyone have a copy of the music disc that came with the launch day edition of Legend of Zelda BOTW? my disc was not put away properly and when i found it, it was broken. I did not have the foresight in 2017 to put this on my computer and digital versions

(@digrett) reported
@JWilley1980 @NintendoAmerica Oh yeah, same here. Apparently people are claiming they've submitted reports to Big B and they claim there's a patch on the way... The reason for issues is allegedly the scripts for AE are running too fast and the game can't load them.

@The_Musho @NintendoAmerica Actually like others have said it makes it even worse. Best to wait. I reinstalled mine back just to fix it.

@DazzlingDazzaD and cuz all of those are nintendo representations besides crash who doesnt even have a movie it feels like theres a bias for those always

@PanqueConNueces @NintendoAmerica There’s an upgrade for 19.99…but I like other who already bought it say wait. The DLC literally breaks the game. Frame rate drops to 15fps in many areas and the awaited survival mode crashes the system if you get to freezing status. Definitely wait for a fix.

@N1Domee @spartan523_ @PeterOvo5 Not the point again. Any potential earnings are unknown for the future of the franchises as they are early. Any opportunity by not venturing into a project has nothing to do with the premise. Nintendo sees no undo issue without COD on their system. Thus not a competing issue.

@zjlaing Joycon drift will come for you eventually. Nintendo extended the warranty on all joycons so it's a free, if slightly inconvenient, fix. Switch Lite doesn't have that extended warranty because the whole system has to be sent in. I had to argue to get free shipping and lower cost

@NintendoAmerica I really hope that you fix the “not enough players” error so I can actually play the game that I spent $90 on and participate in my first Splatfest on Splatoon 3.

@Gecked_ @BlkGodTheGamer The problem is it isn’t worth $90, but it’s Nintendo so they can market the brand. I don’t think they should be compared.

@markwhi72845230 @PinguimTarado @PostUp_bbb The only way to fight is strategic buying because Sony nor Nintendo can’t win a money battle. Sony knows what it needs the most, FPS and live service games. Bungie is one of the top fps developers and will help bring life into Sony shooters. Ms can’t compete so they will pay2win.
