Died on the hill before, but MSFTs market position in the industry plays exactly 0 factors in the companies ability to be hyper aggressive in the space. This is how they grew their other as-a-Service offerings, and I don't think Sony or Nintendo can compete at any level.

Watch in a few months, instead of putting their music on a streaming service; Nintendo is going to roll some streaming thing, only on the Nintendo Switch and it requires Switch Online + Expansion Pass. That sounds like something they would do after the Gilva incident.

@KilljoyClub1918 I play Red Dead, GTA, The evil within, world war z, resident evil on ps4 but the guys who set up my new tv, the ps4 option is now off the toolbar on my tv screen so I’m having trouble getting to the ps4. In the meantime I’m on Nintendo Switch. What do you play?

@BJaymesCondon are you stupid? People call Nintendo the worst company when they - shutdown fan projects - take down music videos of their games - $60 games - not giving free classic games and so on that a personal issue where has there ever been reports of Nintendo mistreating their people?

For god sake #Nintendo if you're gonna nuke all emulators and force us to pay for a official one, at least do something that doesn't crash every godamn time I play. Its the third time I lose hours of my life on paper mario because of random errors #NintendoSwitchOnline

@KaleyD217 They are wayyyyy too tight for the crowds they get and it’s looking like Super Nintendo World is going to have the same problem. Hopefully with Epic they have the room, allow the land (all of them actually) a little more room to breathe.

So I beat Demoniaca Everlasting Night to 100% completion on Nintendo Switch & while I think it is a good game overall... the Nintendo Switch port is horrible! Input lag, really bad frame rate in many areas & excruciatingly long load times! @eastasiasoft need to patch this game!

@DJK1NG_Gaming Emulation? Free ROMs aren't always in danger. Also, yeah, Nintendo need better, but they are seemingly going to try to fix at least the N64 issues. $60 games? More due to inflation and a personal problem. Plus, sometimes it's subjective of what games are worth the price.

@DaddyDimmuTv @DloMatt The OLED Switch has a better frame rate, but the bigger issue with playin DD on the switch is Nintendo online is absolutely dog ****.

@hulu_support Appreciate the response. Here is the underlying issue. The Nintendo Switch is at its core a portable device. As such using cellular data on it now s rather common yet the one streaming app usurps large quantities of data. That suggest that Hulu should cater to portability.

@tjalbury @MLBTheShow NBA2K ports are alright and usually on Par content wise. FIFA is literally FIFA 18 with updated rosters. 2K take care of Nintendo fans really good! Only problem was WWE2K18 because that was just thrown together.

@FemboyPaganism Fake as hell. Nintendo would not announce anything like this, Daisy and Peach are canonically cousins, and even if that isn’t a problem for you, why Daisy of all the characters?

@RinoTheBouncer I think Sony can’t afford Nintendo. The big N is much bigger than Activision. And in that case, it would be a huge monopoly problem.

@PSLifeStyle The Xbox's online service blows PS's and Nintendo's out of the water so hard that I am offended that this poll was even made. But I'm glad about the results, though. It is what it is.

With the Nintendo and Toei takedown issues I think it's time to realise that the issue is the way Japanese companies operate, AND apparently the japanese publics view of those.

@rEtRo_sPexX @genxqt The video game craze began in the early '70s. Atari didn't start it, and they didn't dominate it. However, Atari was king of the home video game market from 1980-1983. The Video Game Crash occurred, and by 1984 the Famicom took the title, and Nintendo dominated for decades.

@Nintendo What ******** is wrong with SSBU Online servers? My internet connection is fine, so why do I play in the same lag as my opponent who has garbage internet? The in-game timer said the game was 2:41, but it was actually 5:44. Nice...

@Buzz1204 @GilvaSunner If Nintendo wants to stop piracy of their songs and games, they need to do a better customer service, not shutdown every fan project that exist. That only gives them a bad image.

@johntv Was there possibly an issue in states about kids playing for too long? Maybe it was Nintendo's way of covering their asses.

@Kotaku Nintendo being counterproductive as always. Seriously, why don't they just put all of their songs on stuff like Spotify? That way these Youtube uploads wouldn't even be a problem since they can be listened to officially.

@BombosMedallion Not sure if it’s Sakurai not being able to direct a live service game or Nintendo not wanting it. Feels weird in a post fortnite world
