@WS_Shinobi @playpokemon I didn't know that. I totally forgot about that. Yeah it would probably end up being banned because it was obtained using a glitch. And we know Nintendo and TPC doesn't like glitches. And honestly I don't think I would like indeedee-f with trick room

What's even worse is that during the match, it'll run fine, but right at the end when we're about to win, I get an error message Nintendo PLEASE fix your servers, I know this isn't my internet doing this

@dinabass @XboxP3 The issue isn't that Sony is fearing that Microsoft will keep COD exclusive. They fear that Microsoft provides it to more platforms that in turn takes away money from them. They see Gamepass and Nintendo sticking their straws in Sony's milkshake.

@AskSmythsToys hi received a Nintendo switch from you but seal on box broken? Is there a reason this could be?

@solutionxero @hetiestsin @videogamedeals And THAT is what’s holding Nintendo games back. Hell, that could apply to almost all of the big names in the Gaming Industry currently. Hastily rush a product out before it’s even 40% complete, then patch it into a playable state. Shareholders and greed are the BIG problems…

@JBurner45 @OrdinaryGamers Dude, the new Pokémon sold like crazy even when it's it's been known since before release it had a lot of problems. Glitches, bad animation, bad graphics and more technical problems; even with the recent bad record of the Pokémon company. Nintendo fans will keep buying sadly

@SortaSerious @majury23 @aarongreenberg No **** Sherlock I’m just simply saying PC does it require a subscription service Xbox doesn’t access cloud storage why should PlayStation or Nintendo be excluded?

@JuiceMan_V So does Sony expect everyone to just buy a console that's isn't always available then re buy a game I already own just to play a DLC? But Microsoft and Nintendo are the ones causing them problems right lol

@parilani @DisneyDLV Oh ok, that makes more sense. I agree! It ruins the whole game so I have just stopped playing honestly until they fix it. If they do. If they wind up like Nintendo then I am not sure I will continue to play.

@Goominatti @Nick_Marseil Ok, and MS/Xbox has said numerous times that a game like CoD is gonna get the Minecraft treatment and stay on Playstation and PC. And will make its way to Nintendo So where is the problem? Y'all said for years "Xbox got no games!" So Xbox is going out and buying games

@dxb4life876621 @OrdinaryGamers I'm chilled dude, but I find it funny that everyone is shitting on Nintendo killing gaming when Microsoft is about to kill gaming and make it a service like Netflix, so now we have to pay for having games just for a limited time, not eight now but eventually.

**** I hope you never have to deal with @NintendoUK customer service. It's literally the worst. Constant copy pasted replies, no real conversation. Like they literally do not care. Shocking.

@GeneralTerrax @didyouknowgamin @NintendoAmerica more suspicion and question than answers, this could be solved if Nintendo were transparent about the issue which they aren't

I’m just very disappointed at these companies.. especially Nintendo and their n64 switch online service… there’s no mk trilogy.. no mk 4.. and for genesis and snes .. no mk 1 or mk 2 .. or bringing another great console like the Saturn

Seriously though this is a huge problem for Xbox. I understand the state of things around the world but Nintendo and PlayStation are still dropping exclusives. Where are Xbox’s? We can’t keep saying “wait till next year.”

Wizards of the coast better keep the open gaming license for one dnd. I don't want to give wizards the ability to do a Nintendo, because they will (and then streamline it all into a ****** service that doesn't work half the time and is arcane and unusable the other half)

@AgentStrangeTV @Antydotes I’d argue that Nintendo has issues with their pipeline as well. They rarely release “big” games, but they always have *something* ready. Zelda was supposed to be their big holiday game but didn’t make it. Could’ve delayed pokemon and they still would’ve had a stellar lineup

@Kjngamer I’ll fix that for you “The game awards are being fed by Sony and Nintendo” If anything TGA is a thing because Nintendo and Sony have been giving it a reason to award said games. XBOX fanboys cannot say a word since nothing they make excels or better yet they have no quality games

@sisterinferior The only real reason I can see Nintendo not going the PC route anytime soon is mods. Even one parent raising an issue with one would cause unnecessary backlash.

Graphics could be more polished, I had some areas of minor frame rate dips, a few minor camera issues, nothing game breaking, but the game could've used additional time in development. Nintendo and Game freak can do better in this area.

@ShaneOMac317 @NianticHelp Nintendo has their issues. But they’re already releasing patches to fix SV. Unite fixes any issues within days of them cropping up. Niantic has bugs and bad coding that’s been allowed to run for YEARS.

@YevAraphel Panda didn't help either. Honestly I think it's a problem that all fgs could have, but it only really hoses Smash because Nintendo is Nintendo. We'll see how it is w project l, and if riot squelches tournaments too
