@IAMCha0tik Also a huge major problem which will start to happen because of that bill. Is not all USB C cables are spec’d out the same. Good example is Nintendo switch charging. Where it can damage your switch device.

@TwigTheBluePik Not a fan of how narrow the middle is, but there is a very good chance Nintendo can fix it. In Splatoon 2 I remember they reworked stages like 2 or 3 times

@DC_gaming5 1. Bro its only bad when Sony does it but look at Nintendo remasters, re-issues games media & SAPS don't give spit! PlayStation drama business. 2. Horizon makes tons of money for Sony business. I'm not bothered by scoffers 3. 2 PSOne remakes confirmed MGS & Cerny's game 👍 👍

@steamfan22 @detroitotaku I wouldn’t drop nintendo unless they start pushing agendas. Even most japanese games that are fan service don’t have *******. So i never seen it as an issue.

@NintendoUK You forgot to overlay it all with "COMMUNICATION ERROR"

I honestly really can't with Nintendo and Splatoon 3. Even after their second attempt on fixing the communication errors, I'm still getting more disconnects than I ever had in Splatoon 2 or Splatoon 1. Even to the point where I've gotten my first time out by the game.

@Boogie2988 The only games i buy day one are playstation. Pc games just always feel unfinished and nintendo is 2 gens behind on content and gameplay and relies on dlc to fix them.

@NintendoCanada @NintendoAmerica @SplatoonNA Day 25 (26 with Splatfest) of asking for a fix for the “not enough players” error on Splatoon 3. Fix it or refund me and everyone else who bought the game and still can’t play due to this error.

@JoeKatana89 No way they make like a new Crash Bandicoot game and don't put it on multiple platforms... that would clearly be a missed opportunity. I don't think MSFT cares about exclusives as much as Nintendo and Sony. I think they realize that as mobile and PC grows, exclusivity will fall.

@demonslayer_hc I'm playing on Nintendo Switch. Central Europe. I made sure that my internet connection is ok. Before I decided to write here it's been 31 matches that were only depending if the servers are lagging or not. Please, take a closer look at this.

@Soul_4_ @mostafatsaad_ @FilmUpdates Could get behind that issue but ion know this has seemed pretty promising. I’m just glad this poster presents itself as a mutual collaboration rather than Nintendo just handing illumination their most beloved IP with no consideration towards the outcome

@BenjiSales @JezCorden The problem are the leaks, nintendo announce games months before their releases, i don't see anything Bad about it, the surprise factor is bigger and more enjoyable sometimes

@RadicalRapt0r @nescartridges nintendo has the money to fix that insanely fast, if it even happens. Plus, the sonic design was probably a publicity stunt. It was suspicious how NO merchandise looked like the old bad sonic design. And also how quickly they fixed it and re-rendered the entire movie.

@arkclaimer I think the fans are also a problem though. A lot of people don't understand proper criticism and instead will straight up insult Nintendo for their actions, fairly so, but it certainly doesn't help. These people also attack other Nintendo fans for supporting the company as well

I just started playing #Splatoon3 last night. How has Nintendo not fixed the disconnect issue? It's been 3 ******* games in eight damn years and it's still happening??

@raptorboost The only problem with this is Nintendo sponsored events, lol. Melee will eventually change into whatever people deem the most fair, and that's something that's constantly being considered. I think getting rid of stage hazards is inevitable.

@GameStrikerX2 @arkclaimer You're right, but the problem is deeper than that too. Nintendo isn't arsed about improving, they know they don't have to. There's also the other, terrifying high number of fans that attack even fair criticism at Nintendo with vitriol and threats. Apologists are just as bad.
