@AWholeNewClew @Dale_Teale @KevTalksGames Pretty tough coming from someone who's demanding we give Nintendo our money and be good obedient robots. You know what? Screw off and stop telling us what to do. If Nintendo wants people to use their service, then maybe they should focus more on not being ****.

@Cupcakedelta125 i dont even think live-service is inherently bad i just don’t think platinum games and the concept go very well together platinum games is basically a nintendo dev at this point, OP brings up nier but they only helped on automata

@NintendoAmerica worst customer service experience in my whole life trying to get two switches repaired… chat was impossible .. rude and unhelpful… it shouldn’t be this hard … I’m not even complaining about the fact that I have multiple broken systems

@CeroFrio1 @NickCucc the only switch game made by nintendo that i haven't run into performance issues with is Mario Odyssey. and i didn't finish that game, so i could be wrong about it too.

@AmyFlower__ @steelebrews Again, I'm not saying Spotify is breaking the law if they removed Rogan. They are within the bounds of legality to do that. However, I see this as a similar issue as Nintendo copyright striking their music on YouTube. Sure, it's legal, but that doesn't make it good.

@MrTvGame @kidsmoove By my logic , Microsoft should not brute force the industry into subscription service just because thier trash Don't sell, Sony /Nintendo and the gamers were doing fine the traditional way of gaming.

@KippSSBU I feel like the mod was deleted because either Nintendo was on their *** or maybe it would sometimes make the player disconnect.

@Q1tum_anomaly Don't blame me Nintendo literally got sued over joycon drift, he'll they are even offering to fix consoles suffering for free, the only reason I'm not is because I'm not shipping my switch over to America

@RezzananceTV Oh I remember I had the same problem last time when I started streaming Nintendo switch games. I remember I had to change "Wavelink Game" to "wavelink System" to get the game audio to come through, also are you using it via SLOBS or just OBS?

@Spladdox ok so the acquisitions are bad right but nintendo said if japanese game devs were threatened they would buy those studios so what if nintendo bought platinum to also prevent this live service stuff

@ThatToa I don't hate Nintendo, the Switch is my most played platform right now. But it leads to all the problems we've already talked about, plus Nintendo is like Disney in that all of their content follows specific molds. It's good that Metroid gets its due, but It's never in a vacuum

@MissNatzooie I can see it as a separated release, I don't think Nintendo would be willing to put an "M" rate on their service risking it selling less for one game.

Hey @NintendoAmerica, can us Nintendo Online users get some new NES and SNES games please? It's been six months. Trying to get us to upgrade to $50 a year isn't going to work if you show that service the same priority you have us $20 people. Ninja Garden 2 & 3 would be nice?

@JBSasuke3025 @Sony @PlayStation Regardless on how people feel about Sony,They not gonna buy a video game company to prove a point even if they have the money or not,Microsoft IMO just wanna cause trouble for gamers as i said it doesn't affect just Sony,It affects Nintendo as well when it comes to multiplatform.

@ClassicGuy100 Fortunately most of Arceus's problems are still just Pokemon problems. I can't imagine an in house Nintendo title having the same menu and button issues at least

I haven't used my switch for two months because of my broken joy-cons. I think it about time to fill out a online form for nintendo so they can help repair my joy-cons

@DukePaulus @NickCucc Idk what you're talking about because the only Nintendo games I can think of that have performance issues are BotW in VERY taxing locations, and Age of Calamity (and that's koei tecmo more than Nintendo).

@yrmmyetagain And another point is: most of the issues Nintendo has are industry-wide, and Nintendo is one of the lesser examples. An example of this is Capcom not allowing twitch streamers to make sub emotes of their characters. People are only mad at Nintendo because they condemned poor ZeRo

@none_ofbusiness mainly because of patterns people have noticed that nintendo tends to be on track of and people are hoping it doesnt get broken. we almost always get a direct in the january-march window, then possibly randomly between then and e3, then e3, then september, repeat

@Sharito742 People just overreacting, they're looking to self publish and do live service on their own. Nintendo would still contract them for bayonetta and Astral Chain. This matter is just platinum looking for more funds for self publish ( even after Tencent invested a lot in em lol )
