@learn2chillax yeah, and iirc, capcom basically coerced nintendo into upgrading their servers/network and rise was the first game to use it, so there might be some newfangled problems they hadn't forseen

@AirahShunken @DesertPogona @monsterhunter Why would they say no when plenty of games support it and when they are open about letting devs do it? It's a Capcom issue, not on the Nintendo side.

@PatStaresAt I get cross-play cause possible Nintendo problems,but Cross-Saves seems weird.

@Wilfred5172 @Anggul_D @NintendoUK if they didn’t have it, people would realize that all they’re subbing to is a service that they update whenever they feel like and it’s just random bargain bin games from back in the day instead of finishing putting games that people have actually requested on the service.

@RogueCompany I'm still able to perform with it, albeit just a bit worse, but the main problem is that it feels weird. Almost as if there wasn't a zoom. PS. Please stop giving me Nintendo Switch players who can't get a single down in 5 rounds while the enemy has tournament ready players. :)

@walmarthelp Why are you selling Nintendo OLED switches that say “in stock” when you haven’t fulfilled preorders from July? Now delayed with no updates. That’s not good customer service.

@Vancelot9 @Viexi_ @monsterhunter I didn’t even consider that. But I don’t remember any Nintendo specific dlc on the switch version. And I don’t see any issues with the capcom collabs, because it’s their own stuff

@AHire4630 @monsterhunter Completely disagreed. Transparency is everything. It puts an early end to false hopes and speculation. Being Nintendo consumers, which I assume many of us are because currently MHR is only on Switch, we know the issue with lack of transparency.

"Nintendo is a billion dollar company." I DON'T CARE. Worry about the franchise, not the company. Nintendo isn't loosing any money, any time soon. "Emulation isn't the problem." For old games no, but new games? YES!!

@monsterhunter This is obviously not a technology problem. It's nintendo. If they would've allowed Cross-Save I would've actually kept my Switch for mobile gaming. I think I'm pretty much done with consoles now. If I only buy PC games from now on I won't have to worry about this stuff anymore.

@monsterhunter Wow. Really? Shouldn't you guys have looked into it FIRST before asking for fans feedback on the issue? You guys could do it with X and XX back then but not *this time*? Just be honest and say it's Nintendo holding you back.

@_WannabeCritic I definitely don’t outright condone piracy and I definitely agree with you. But when I read the article it seemed me that Kotaku was more shitting on Nintendo for not making hardware that can run their games at modern standards yet emulation on PC has no problem doing so.

@Anggul_D @NintendoUK You're the one who is mad. Your statement basically amounts to you crying over being unable to purchase a subscription service that is 1/3 the cost of competing yearly subscriptions in the game industry.

@ArisuSosuke @ShenZxro @monsterhunter Eh that's more a matter of the switch's library, not Nintendo. When a game with crossplay does come to switch it seems to be a non issue

(@SonicKeyblade00) reported
@ChowderGumball @SpadesEnder @monsterhunter If I had to guess, it's either: A) They can't implement it, due to coding or programming, etc. B) Nintendo didn't consent to it. Or there's some serious compatibility issues with the NS as a whole. I'd love to know which one, but Capcom won't throw Nintendo under the bus.

Spent the last 2 hours playing Crash Bandicoot at my mates house. I've decided I need to get a Nintendo Switch. Completed all of them years ago. The time has come again.

@ChillyFrilly @NintendoAmerica Ay, the 'dark void' glitch was a real glitch where map graphics tweaking led to flying off the map and re-entering onto New Moon Island

Hey @Walmart @walmarthelp - any chance you'll address all these Nintendo Switch OLED preorder issues and actually issue a statement about what is going on? I'm sure @NintendoAmerica would like to get these devices in hands! What is going on over there?! #whereismyswitch

@idontevenknowl8 Bluster Kong and Leo Luster are owned by Nintendo and they are from a Donkey Kong related thing so there’s no problem with them getting in smash

@monsterhunter They didn’t really say there was a technical issue which leads me to believe that they could and would add cross saves and cross play but Nintendo is most likely preventing them from doing so

@AWonderfulSound @Brettford21 @NintendoAmerica Why does everyone use the good ‘ol “20 bucks a year” argument, the consumers still deserve a good service. Either that or make it free… money’s still money.

@GT_Nylis666 @dermotmacconvi1 Not only on average you guys are on comparison to where I live, also, the currency is stronger, lower taxes and all that other stuff, you choose to ignore, but again it's your money, the day nintendo offers a Steam/Gamepass like service I will gladly pay for it, till then I'mfine

@Mofirelizard @SolaceAndDread See and there in lies the steam deck threat. The steam deck will have access to significantly more games. If it has a strong start Nintendo might be in trouble

(@101Squiddy) reported
@uhMayzedHD @himstdvent @monsterhunter If only Capcom games have no PC-Switch cross-play/cross-saves, yet other games like Witcher 3 and Hades do, isn't that an issue with Capcom and not Nintendo?

(@Wunderdasrvicbl) reported
@SnedsGetsIt @Alooful Yes, I was talking about their utility. Obviously drift is an issue, and I will never deny that, but not only has it been improving, but at least it is being compensated by Nintendo. In no way does drift prevent you from playing in handheld most of the time.

@AlkaidSc @NintendoUK Lol, who's mad? I just made a statement. You're the one getting mad that someone thinks a bad service isn't worth the asking price.
