@TheNCSmaster @JonComms I don’t know how safe Mario Maker or 3D World really were. I mean, ppl WANTED Nintendo to play it safe with 3D World and make a 64 Clone (which would have caused issues) after all. Mario Maker was crazy experimental and could have been safe as it started as Mario Paint.

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.

@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.

@BrianTheDrumer seems like a skill issue, nintendo would never put out a game that has flaws.

@Unownspeciil The article that sent people here skipped the nuance. So it's only official if people consider that T&T art official, which I do, but it's a pretty gray: the real issue is in the 80's we had a lot of crazy material that Nintendo would use and the term is vaguer for some of us 4/

@XboxSupport @Nibellion Turn off the Xbox specific DRM causing this issue. Most of the single player games being affected by this online Xbox garbage do not have these issues on Playstation or Nintendo systems.

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.

@DonaldMustard @PeteEllisEPIC @TimSweeneyEpic Where can I sign up to be a community manager/bug reporter for Fortnite on Nintendo Switch? Not looking for any form of compensation, just want to report bugs, glitches, physics issues and problems with lighting and texture quality

@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.

@MilesDompier DRM appears to be less aggressive on Nintendo Switch & PlayStation during outages. I don’t think I’ve ever had an issue accessing something I owned to play offline on those systems. I couldn’t even play Halo Infinite campaign even using the disc.

@JonComms I know it's been a major issue with Nintendo shipping out games without much content at launch but the Mario spinoffs as of recent have had LOADS of personality. Sometimes I really think it's a classic case of "New thing bad, old thing good."

Surprising that Nintendo is still not working on NFTs - it seems like the logical step after Amiibos #Nintendo #Amiibo #NFT

@mcgeck @GapFreezer The problem is that it was universally panned. The system did not sell very well, but it had great games and much of their output was very well received. And Nintendo fans who bought it enjoyed the system greatly back then.

@ScottFalco The opening cut scene sucks? Oh no turn off everything cancel Nintendo sue them, make them fix this absolutely horrendous cut scene so the game can be good

@GapFreezer @thrak94 I think the issue is selective memory when negative reactions stick out more. There was no everyone and most Nintendo fans are not kids. There was never an everyone. It just didn’t sway the non core Nintendo audience.

I’m gonna send in a broken joycon to Nintendo to be repaired, I feel like this is a rite of passage or something

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

@Chris_Dring That's the same as in the US right? I mean, UK is a market very similar to the US, with maybe Nintendo lagging a little behind in comparison?

@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

@TasticSilver @NintendoAmerica Sadly this is a problem with almost all online games. I think its going to happen more with Nintendo games because its more family focused you will have kids and parents that play and just walk away if something comes up.
