@StarboyHsp Sony and nintendo dont have it on purchased and downloaded games you own except gt7 only on the service games, ps+ and whatever the others are

@ImmortalGamer89 DRM isn't specific to Xbox. Or is it a problem simply because it's Xbox? Because these last couple days the coverage sure seems to pretend it's just an Xbox issue, when nintendo and Sony has drm policies

I want to cry. I turned on the switch lite to continue pokemon, after a while black screen with error code appeared saying to restart the console. But it doesn't turn on anymore. HELP I don't know where to put my hands.I've tried everything. #Nintendo #NintendoSwitch #help

@JonJGWilson @TheNCSmaster The context is kinda important considering every gen has a big Mario title meant to take advantage of the hardware. The problem is that not even Nintendo knew what to do with the damn gamepad plus it would've been too big of an investment for a console that would hardly return it

@TrainNtweet_ @MldGhost Actually sony also has DRM and so does Nintendo. Digital Rights Management is Necessary for digital/live service games to prevent piracy

12/19 Anyway, some kind soul went to the trouble of turning it into a rom hack and Luigi can jump higher and also slides a little bit just like he does in Super Mario Bros The Lost Levels. I still haven't forgiven Nintendo for not including Luigi in the original game.

@gemrazzled If you ever did end up having a plush of Gem made, that might be difficult if it's possibly a public product since she's an Octoling, which could cause copyright issues with Nintendo. Though I imagine it wouldn't be as hard to just get a personal plush of her for yourself.

@enterzalman This game is great and well done. I still need to play the second one. I would get physical if available here. They could have sold on Club Nintendo if they don't want to deal with supply issues.

@az_torch For me, this is no problem. As a Lucas main, I can use my down b and absorb the big explosion. This is why Lucas is the best character in Nintendo’s super smash bros ultimate

@SuperNGuy I believe the big issue was longevity. A lot of people seemed to abandon it quick, including Nintendo themselves seemingly pulling the plug on DLC early, which in turn further hurt the game's longevity.

Just took my brand new Nintendo switch into cex to sell and I got home and they called me to say one of the joycons is broken and they are only willing to give me £50 for it what a ******* joke

@SuperMarioT_YT @YouTube It’s more like “Release it now, (add) it later” and I do mean (add) it later, not (fix) it later, these games are not a broken glitchy mess like the 3rd party games the Square Enix’s Avengers, or Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric, but these Nintendo games need more content.

@XboxSupport Your region policy is frankly ridiculous. I am originally a US account user who moved to Korea then South East Asia and it's a nightmare trying even to buy games or pay with local cards. I have zero issues with Nintendo, Sony, Epic or Steam who even let me pay with local currency

@JoseOle94 @shanejblair13 You can't really get mad at the angle they play get mad at the people who paid for the systems and games. Nintendo is very big on the phrase "If it ain't broke don't fix it" Nintendo is the only company with a long line of successful handhelds

@caseharts @Dexerto Game Freak has never been great in the graphical department, lagging behind even its fellow colleagues from Nintendo.

@LeemerBean @zhellas No I do. The camera, the slippery controls, the *** flying and swimming controls. Mario 64 is so *** that Nintendo couldn't even fix it in Mario 3D All Stars. Mario 64 is a ******* mistake.

Anyone know anyone that can fix a Nintendo switch? I have a yellow one. I don’t use it at all. It just needs fixing seeing that they’re low in stock on them. No scratches etc. mint condition.

@TikiLagoon @Sharito742 It's not my relationship with Nintendo that's the problem, it's aaaaaaallllll the false rumors constantly swimming around the internet. So, is there a POSSIBILITY that this is true? sure. Do I give a ****? meh. I'll reserve my excitement for an announcement.

Although Sony and Nintendo release good games, no one will is a better promoter for Switch and Playstation than Microsoft with their ****** customer service and brittle cloud system that takes people's purchases away from them. I want the company to truly fail at times.

@TokiYoda @LeemerBean @zhellas Nintendo couldn’t even fix it because nintendo didn’t even try to fix it, its literally just emulated with no enhancements on the switch, check out the pc port if you want a proper camera and unlocked framerate

@benjullb @TheNCSmaster @JonComms That's the thing, at the time everyone was having trouble moving 2d platformers to 3d The way Nintendo did it was either turning them into collect-a-tons or 2.5D plataformers Capcom now have Mario 3D Land/World as a template of how to do it right
