    @NintendoAmerica Look, even if I wish for my biased character to come out (a jibanyan, Rayman, Crash, or the 8-bit Mario) it won’t change my opinion about the #FreeMelee and #freesplatoon topic. So if you want to strength your good-will, better update your policies

    @BigOlbearboi @KillzzXx @NintendoAmerica the problem is buying everything let’s them know their shitty business practices work

  • lord_z19 Lord Z (@lord_z19) reported

    If the smash character is Fortnite I will actually burn my copy of Smash Bros Ultimate. I hate Nintendo for what they have done recently and I already hate Epic Games. Fortnite doesn’t deserve to be in smash, Crash does. #SmashBrosUltimate #FuckEpic
