  • RavenWorks 🌺 Raven aka Hazel 🌸 (@RavenWorks) reported

    god the audio sync problems wouldn't be so noticeable if Nintendo's iconic gesture wasn't literally like the perfect example of how to tell if audio and video are synced

  • fierygarfield FieryGarfield (@fierygarfield) reported

    This nintendo direct is so **** omg They have nothing to show so they’re padding it out with 3rd party titles that no one cares about Also the smash reveal was ******* LAME!!! another fighting game character ? Can these degenerates be original for once ?? Crash? Rayman?

  • mystic_ronin MegidolaonRonin💥 THE Based Detective prince (@mystic_ronin) reported

    @TREVONGDF322 @Societyman111 @NintendoAmerica But problem is people are just gonna ask for EVERY character in existence like Naruto or something

  • luz_jasmine Luz Jasmine (@luz_jasmine) reported

    Kinda hard to be excited for Nintendo Direct when I was being told that my trust issues are on me by the person who has contributed plenty to those trust issues. 🙃

  • mk_aln9 Mohamed (@mk_aln9) reported

    @bandicootpage @NintendoAmerica Don’t worry we still have a chance because there is only one last spot for smash, I hope this time crash bandicoot join smash!!!

  • mlsprhr Martín H (@mlsprhr) reported

    Lmao @NintendoAmerica has no problem standing up there and saying “we don’t got **** else for you”

  • VladOrellana 𝕬𝖑𝖊𝖝𝖎𝖘 (@VladOrellana) reported

    @NintendoAmerica @E3 Hello? Crash Bandicoot? 🙄🙄🙄

  • livieneko Mermaidium (@livieneko) reported

    It’s so lame how much trouble streamers are having with Nintendo direct, twitch is losing it’s charm

  • Ruu_TV Ruu (@Ruu_TV) reported

    To the news outlets who continuously report about a Nintendo Switch Pro and how it's coming.... A broken clock is right twice a day.

  • pdbym Matt (@pdbym) reported

    Honestly … if Nintendo didn’t have Pokémon … they’d be in serious trouble….

  • esunabresama 🏳️‍🌈 Apsel the Non-Binary WonderBou ♋ (@esunabresama) reported

    I’m … not impressed. That felt very subpar. I’m glad we got another teaser. We didn’t see Pokémon? We didn’t see a new IP? There wasn’t any major RPG showing except for SMT…? No Super Nintendo Switch? No new online/digital service like NES/SNES? Hm.

  • MewtwoDiva SimplyAsha (@MewtwoDiva) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Welp all though I wanted it to be Crash this just shows you cant predict this **** any more.

  • raidinator20 Raidinator20 (@raidinator20) reported

    Well, I think we can all agree that Nintendo won E3. There were so many hype reveals, including a Tekken character, new Warioware, new Metroid (HOW?!?), and a teaser for BOTW 2. But uh, yeah. As much as I wanted him, I think Crash is done. But overall, a really good E3.

  • UmbraNoctus Chris (@UmbraNoctus) reported

    It also looked so god damn good, can't wait for the 12. November! (The problem now is, the rest of the Nintendo Direct is not gonna shock me anymore, I was just really hyped for SMT5 and they already showed that!) #NintendoDirect

  • RetroSinz Angel Diaz (@RetroSinz) reported

    @Societyman111 @shaneologist7 @NintendoAmerica You can't say you weren't expecting Crash, Kazuya is cool but it was out left field

  • lorne_gray Lorne Gray (@lorne_gray) reported

    @Banxy @MojangSupport We’re having the same issue, I think it’s Nintendo related because we’re getting the same issue with Fortnite

  • thesteakfromst1 lowsta (@thesteakfromst1) reported

    @Pastelfrown @NintendoAmerica Crash is up your ***

  • GatorSticks GatorSticks (@GatorSticks) reported

    imo, nintendo **** the bed. i didnt hear a single person asking for kazuya, im sure there were people but they definitely weren't the majority of ppl. i'm still hopeful that kazuya will at least be fun to play, but from a fan service perspective this sucks (2/?)

  • Inaccuracy_ Lud wants paper Mario in smash bros (@Inaccuracy_) reported

    I’m mentally broken Nintendo you ruined me

  • TheDromader somethingcleveridk (@TheDromader) reported

    Nintendo's back is broken from carrying all of E3 on its ******* back

  • Fei_the_bae Fei the Bae 🍉abab blm acab (@Fei_the_bae) reported

    nintendo pls fix the downloading problems on switch

  • cyraxible Alice Thee Coltrane (@cyraxible) reported

    @Wario64 Lol skyward sword hd. Who calls remasters that anymore. Nintendo always lagging behind.

  • jinjiroubouei 二倍だDouble (@jinjiroubouei) reported

    nintendo is ddos'ing this site again

  • Begaria Begaria (@Begaria) reported

    So after watching that Nintendo Direct, are there going to be any game journalists pining and whining over why there's no monthly subscription service that Nintendo delivers their games day and date into oooooooorrrrr.....?

  • ChandyRan ChandyRan (@ChandyRan) reported

    The Nintendo Narrator speaking over weird trailers is always such a disconnect.

  • Suburban_Hell 𝕄𝕚𝕜𝕖 𝕠𝕗 𝕊𝕦𝕓𝕦𝕣𝕓𝕚𝕒 (@Suburban_Hell) reported

    . @NintendoAmerica was like #E32021 sucks? Let me go ahead and fix that. #NintendoDirect

  • epcrull SONIA (@epcrull) reported

    So my internet service provider @Windstream doesn't want me to watch the Nintendo E3 event but they don't get to control what I watch but I am about to scream

  • NameofWit Jeremy Mercer (@NameofWit) reported

    @NintendoAmerica great direct. I’m still mad you’re making me pay to repair your issue with my switch.

  • sailorvomit eren (@sailorvomit) reported
