@Alyc0re Really this argument can be with Nintendo and PlayStation as well they all have some issues the pros of each system are different tho PlayStation doesn't have players hardly any options as for game wise it's either ps+ or nothing Xbox is slow on tech ps already has vr

@Lubidius aw man, ebay would have to be it. Hopefully none of them have a broken analogue stick... Nintendo closed down all production of the 3DS now that its irrelevant, which is a shame too I really loved the 3DS...

@PaulLOnYouTube I wouldn’t pay for it, as well as Nintendo online. Especially seeing as I’m having downloading issues with 12.0.3 software, which Nintendo UK admitted to in a phone call, but have no date for a fix or software update, to fix it.

@CJBattleChaser @OcUnnamed Most if not all of rise of lyrics' problems traces back to Sega and Nintendo themselves. I don't think the development studio that got screwed over by Sega and was rushed to put out a game on the Wii u last minute should be blamed. Also sumo digital and dimps made good games imo

@RatedSilva @gamingbible I've been pretty loyal to PlayStation. Regular Nintendo Gameboy Super Nintendo Playstation Nintendo 64 Playstation 2 Xbox360 Playstation 4 If I had access to Xbox Live stuff, I may make the jump. But not in the cards right now. Can't find internet service providers here.

Since Crash is appearing in numerous PlayStation ads and acting like the mascot of Sony, despite never owning him. Would that make Crash as the Jack-Of-All-Trades/Multiplatform Mascot? Not just Sony advertising Crash, but sometimes Nintendo as well. Microsoft does it rarely.

@NintendoAmerica Fix your game. Bring friendly fire on smash online doubles. Or stop producing cancers like Sephiroth. See a few Kirby Up B spam online, try it out on a flat map. Broken projectiles. #SpamCity #FixSmash #SmashBrosUltimate

@jakekgearhart @LeonhartYT You'd think.. but once translations were approved they were thrown onto the mastersheet as is and sent to print... Part of WHY Nintendo took over was all these egregious errors, and this was a byproduct of trying to have better QA because it worked for MtG.

My one hope for Skyward Sword HD is that they fix how the game keeps explaining collectables you've already collected every time you turn the game off and on. But knowing Nintendo, they'll just make an amiibo that has that feature instead.

@CloudInertia @aydos_egemen Nintendo's biggest problem is letting franchises just die out, charging too much for remakes/ports, and never having anything they make go on sale for more than 10-20 bucks off, Whereas most xbox/ps things become 20 bucks or less 1-2 years in max.

@zaclw hahaha I loved that system more than Nintendo did which was part of the problem. I still think it would have done so much better with a different name :(

@JoGoTheVO @Stealth40k I'm sorry, but neither may happen. Crash legally is a cluster F, and the teams that own him now, really don't respect Nintendo. If crash had a chance in anything, it was Playstation Allstars. this isn't exactly a guarantee though.

The fact that it took me two weeks for my Switch to be able to download eshop games without errors on the latest firmware and Nintendo didn’t hotfix it is genuinely ******* unacceptable. Like “Your product is faulty and you did nothing” levels of bad.

@beverlylove I recommend it. But if you have trouble finding one, I got a refurbished one from Nintendo. It came in really good condition.

@BUBBL3GUMK1NG @daimon_shaw @Stealth40k Nintendo’s definitely not the first and only company to charge full price for a remaster. The port issue I get. But this is a remastering of the game. Other companies like Sony, Microsoft, Activision, Bandai Namco, and Bethesda also release remastering at full price.

@marauderz Well its not wrong to ask the full service because we are a paying customer too. For example the official smartphone app. I can’t download it here. So @NintendoAmerica ?

So, some good, bad, and hopeful news: Good News: I contacted Nintendo about my ACNH save issues, and they were able to help restore my island save... Bad News: ...but, the save that got restored was also corrupted. Hopeful News: Switch is finally being sent in for repairs.

So, it turns out that @NintendoUK are a thieving bunch of bastards. After relenting to a class action lawsuit over Joycon drift issues, I guess they have another tactic to recoup their losses at the hands of their customers.

Sucks SMT5 is trapped on Switch cause that means it's probably gonna have FPS issues out the *****. Nothing I've played from Nintendo this year has been smooth.
