@NelsonT123 @justadoggo__ @NintendoAmerica You would rather Have Nintendo doing such things instead of Having them not do it at all? Since no collection would Be Better than another limited release of lazy ports: You accepting such anticonsumer moves are part of the problem

@tebhernandez @antdude92 I said money from every person that is using the service. Let me explain again then. Nintendo is purposefully NOT giving us new consoles for the NSO so they can make easy money with online players or people waiting the N64, GC, GB and so on.

@CABEZILLA142DXD @CB4Smash ok but a: mario is literally the mickey mouse of gaming and b: having 2 nintendo characters would kinda discredit sonic and crash, especially because donkey kong wasnt really a platformer until dkc

@RicoSuavez @ArouetA @BenjiSales No company level fix for it but if you do encounter it in your Nintendo controllers, drop a bit of electronic contract cleaner under the rubber *****. It’ll keep you good for 4-6 months or more

Been playing my Nintendo Switch and buying a lot more Switch games lately seeing as though retailers haven’t bothered to fix the next gen console orders situation yet. Which I definitely think they need to take it more seriously.

@NintendoAmerica Dripfeeding content that very few people are interested in. Wii & Wii U's Virtual Console puts this new service to shame in every possible way. Not surprising, but disappointing regardless

Can I say that the Activision document is weird. They planned this before Smash was even out so saying "Crash will be in Smash" is just optimistic. Nintendo is the one that approaches you not you to them so it's just weird.

@PcElitist__ @NintendoAmerica 1. Most of the games on pc are either on console, or originally from consoles 2. Unlike the consoles the pcs can get viruses, which causes them to, well, crash or be unusable 3. if you don't like consoles, then why go to their accounts?

@GamesNosh Oh no, it's defective! Better pay us another $50 to fix it! -Sony and Nintendo

@FEARLESSCHRIS8 @NelsonT123 @NintendoAmerica what would be the problem? people have been begging for ports of the hd remasters, and with them being $60 on wii u, a collection would be quite the deal

@Thesmg4 @Jonathan2285 @ArloStuff Hot take: nintendo online isn't that bad. People's internet that is. Many games just hide the lag better, but it is still there. Think about a game like CoD. Sometimes you'll take a headshot but you weren't supposed to.

@HopeJustice1938 So what's the issue. I know IGN is garbage so if it's good than I'm guessing that they screwed nintendo out of a better score.

@Venny_Evan @NintendoAmerica Id agree but the problem is that the classic service is where the majority of value of NSO comes from (its definitely not coming from network upkeep)

@DragonRift Oh I remember that. When I sent my old 360 in, they promptly fixed it AND gave me a year of gold free for an apology. Microsoft is good. Sony is good. Nintendo customer service and repairs are just... Eh.

@TheMaractusMan @NintendoAmerica Bravely Default for the most part is a fun game if you enjoyed the classic Final Fantasy games like FF3/FF5. However the biggest complaint is the middle of the game being repetitive as hell. Bravely Second doesn't have that issue but the jobs in that one seemed more hit or miss
