@zaebucca @emimonserrate Yeah, I can see why you wouldn't want that. If Nintendo went after that the the artists might get in trouble too.

@UpInTheBlue2 @NintendoAmerica is there a problem?

@PushDustIn At least one more first party. The first party will probably be someone from Zelda or Metroid (or Bandana Waddle Dee) so that they cover the Nintendo demographic that wasn't covered by Min Min. I also think Crash Bandicoot is pretty likely third party. Hoping for Danganronpa tho.

@MAmityH @NintendoAmerica It’s the cheap way that 2D animation tries to be like 3D by rigging the body parts on a skeletal frame. The method doesn’t translate well to 2D because depth of space is ignored. They save the trouble of having to animate different angles or foreshortening.

@fae_thicc @soulslikegamer I understand that, and of course they should have done that. My issue is that its a charity event. If Nintendo werent so out of touch, they would offer to sell them the liscense first (because its for charity) rather than shutting it down there and then.

Hey, ACNH side of Twitter, has anybody ever managed to fix the error code 2618-0513 problem where you can go to other islands but nobody can come to yours? My NAT type is fine and my download speeds are okay, but I’m on community WiFi in my apartment. Nintendo Online is busted.

@Quiverheart_ @eddie_ayyy @NintendoAmerica It's not that the game isn't good, I for myself never played it but a large portion of people want a sequel to the 3rd instalment so I get it's quite a good game, the problem is that Nintendo is just putting out a remaster, wich just polishes some parts for probably 60 bucks

@purplemage572 My exact thoughts, it’s sucks but ppl are treating nintendo like Hitler. Because of how insane people are reacting the problem will prob never be solved. 2 wrongs don’t make a right

@docsquiddy Once they double-charged me for PS+ due to a webstore error - they agreed it was an error on *their* end but still said that the refund that they gave me was my "one-time exception". Meanwhile Nintendo CSR have always been nothing but amazing.

@PushDustIn M.Bison, any Sonic character, and I want to say Crash but at this point that seems unlikely There seems to be favoritism for properties in close proximity to Nintendo, both metaphorically and physically. I imagine Minecraft was the one exception because well, it's so huge.

Half the things others are experiencing i haven’t experienced yet with the game, but shouldn’t have to wait weeks for patches to fix a game.. we bash Nintendo , but most of the time their games come out right from jump with minor fixes

@nervousandi it just keeps coming back to the dialogue issue !! nintendo really need to add more generic dialogue in, I talk to the villages twice and then don’t want to any more in case they start repeating themselves😭

@GameStop I have just had the worst experience this month with your service I've ever had in my life. I purchased a nintendo switch and I've been lied to repeatedly about it's cancellation after I paid for it. Never shopping with this company again

@SaberArts1 My problem with Nintendo right now is that unlike EA, Activision, or Konomi where they are clearly showing that they are a scummy company, Nintendo hides their scummy business practices with a happy-go-lucky facade.

@NODYLANCROSSING I’m in bed rn but tmrw I’ll pull up screenshots of my nintendo account on two different switches. My current non broken switch only has that main account while my broken switch has several. It’s super easy to add on or even transfer your accounts as long as they have an email

@PushDustIn Honestly, I think it's hard to say. Sakurai and Nintendo have been really good at surprising us with their picks. If i had to guess I'd say: Some kind of Xeno-series representative a cartoonish like character, a la Crash or Arle Another villain character.

Fighters Pass We deserve but not the one We're going to get most likely don't really think Crash Bandicoot is on Nintendo Of Japans radar at all for Fighters. 😐 #Nintendo #SmashUltimate #SmashSP

@charlie_J86 Bruh, millions of people still brought the PS4 and XB1 version of Cyberpunk. Are you implying they shouldn't be mad at the quality because *checks notes* Nintendo supposedly gets a pass for doing stuff? Because we know they don't release broken *** games.

@jultar1000 @NintendoAmerica Don't treat corporations like people. They make money off of products they sell to consumers. Hold them to a higher standard. Demand that they treat the consumers and fans well. The #FreeMelee issue is 100% dumb destructive Nintendo policy. No other game-company does this.

@charlie_J86 You damn well know the internet would be filled with rage if Nintendo did this. Thankfully, Nintendo's philosophy doesn't have them releasing super broken games.

@GameStopHelp I've had the worst customer service experience with this company I have ever had I ordered a nintendo switch and some games and 3 calls later and noone can explain why my order was partially filled and the switch was declined

@JuiceMan_V Nintendo has released broken n poor products. jon cons to name one. the gamecube controller triggers are complete trash. Zelda 2: Adventures of Link is bin of bad game design decisions. the lock out chips in their early systems cause all sorts of problems even for official titles
