@_quillmonger @AboutNintendo @NintendoAmerica Is funny, because Nintendo also is ****** and evil cuz they wont fix their joycons to not adress the issue they are faulty so they dont lose the lawsuit, not as evil as someone using a deceased person legacy to market a scam but still evil

@AboutNintendo @KissTheSkyMedi1 @NintendoAmerica if you really want to get them in trouble with something, report them on twitter for hateful content or impersonating etika. nintendo realistically doesn't have any ground for this

@contxtsonic @KaryoCat @RealUltraFox I don’t think anything “bad” with the game itself. It’s pretty fun and the Endless mode was nice feature. I think the problem is how Nintendo handled it. $10 was probably a bit too much, you couldn’t play offline, and the game just ATE a lot of data.

@WinthrupJ @PlayAvengers Well, that's too bad, because Nintendo has the license for the Ultimate Alliance games now. So, either get used to live service games, or get used to playing games on a switch!

@spectre_635 @ModernVintageG I’m not exactly a developer but I’ve dabbled in code here and there. It wouldn’t surprise me if it’s because of the partnership with Nintendo given Nintendo’s history of blaming emulation on their issues with piracy due to the demand for games they themselves can’t legally offer.

@Kipper_snax That sucks, I'm sorry. :( On the upside, Nintendo will repair or replace your Joy-Con for free if the troubleshooting doesn't fix it.

@Spectrobits @ArloStuff I know the question is for Arlo obviously, but this just got me thinking about my thoughts on it. The funny thing is that the problem that Nintendo faces and has faced with Amiibo is that it's such a NINTENDO problem. They love doing their blue ocean, "innovation" in gaming 1/?

@trustyfuttrader EA isnt concerned about legal action but they are concerned about bad PR. Media involvement will get their attention. Years ago @kksl1der successfully got EA to take action on some Nintendo Switch issues. Liam - do you know anybody who will write up a story on these hacks?

I can't believe Nintendo gives their business to United Radio. Joy-con drift is a widespread issue. United Radio shouldn't lie and pretend they couldn't replicate the joy-con drift I was experiencing.

@theaontwt Demonix³’s Nintendo account is set in Europe (don’t ask) and I have trouble playing any online games that require the Online Membership. So, I created Greenie² to set it in the Americas so I could play. The servers I connected to were still Asian, funnily enough. Nintendo weird.

@LocalPizzaBox Not many people owned a Nintendo Switch. (Limited pre-orders, remember?) So with: the limited amount of Switches circulating BotW being WAY MORE POPULAR And I dropped the game around the time MK8D released ...Yeah, not many reasons FOR server issues.
