I've been trying to be alot less serious on this site because I believe a part of my problems come from me taking my online presence too seriously I'm a Nintendo Twitter account that's mostly known for my drama with Mevans and my obsession with Piranha Plants. That's not serious

Unfortunately, a game that size may not be able to be playable on the Switch. It might need to only be playable on consoles that use Blu-ray discs. That is a problem. But then again maybe not. Nintendo's 3rd party developers have done an awesome job with the "game cards".

@ebassi @alosarjos public service announcement: steam-devices is basically just a file with udev-rules. Works flawlessly on silverblue for me and a nintendo pro controller

@AboutNintendo What bothers me isn't the silly porn gifs, but the fact that tons of minors that follow Nintendo will be subjected to those gifs. That's the real problem.

@NintendoAmerica Thought your last update was going to fix the messed up features on the Switch, but nope. The issue with joycon's stick testing still doesn't work.

@EricLGG Starting to think nintendo may have left that "glitch" in on purpose

@Hunter40333010 @IntroSpecktive Because the Switch has been out longer than the PS5 and drift is still an issue Nintendo refuses to acknowledge. It's not that hard to understand.

@robinandcat I miss old school video game mags (well, the ones that weren't being gross about girls/women anyway). GameFan was good stuff, and I can't help but to love Nintendo Power. There was an old PSX mag that had demo discs with each issue too!

@dominickevans That sucks. Nintendo need to do better. They make great games but accessibility is a hit and miss. For example, Luigi's Mansion. It's partially accessible to the deaf. I recall that you had issues with Zelda's fine-motor controls.

@Luceobrien I hope they fix the bow and arrow mechanic because it sucks and you need 3 hands to pull it off effectively. Take a note from Nintendo and Zelda, they use only 1 button to pull it off.

@UbisoftSupport Hello, thanks for the reply. Already spoke with Nintendo and will be receiving a return. Seems a lot of people have issues with wheel of fortune and trivia pursuit flooding their router and crashing the internet. Unfortunate, really wanted to play and make a series out of it

@RonaldSDean @WalmartCanada Whoever did this has to be pretty hard up to go through the trouble of re-shrink wrapping and returning a new nintendo switch game. What will they think of next

@Zari_Wari Making fighting games F2P would be horrible even tho games like MK I think are already following the live service model. It would promote them to send the game half finish at launch and just keep pumping out half-assed DLC and update like how Nintendo does games now.

@launders Nintendo online so i can play mario kart online with friends. That's it...that's the only monthly subscription service i have. I use YT for music, Watch my shows/movies on shady websites and don't have a paid VPN. And canceled my faceit premium this month.

Looks like Chrono Cross performance issues appear on Playstation, not only Nintendo Switch. Pretty sure this is Square Enix fault

@NintendoAmerica This is the problem I have with this feature. It shouldn't cater to one game a month. AC is fine with the birthday idea, but this is why they should have at least 5 featured games a month instead of 1 so it goes through faster. Not everyone is into Splatoon or AC.
