@LiveWithArya I don’t have a problem with subscription models. Even Sony and Nintendo has one. It’s a great way to play games for cheap. The main issue is Da&D games on a sub because when a game is available for a low price from the start of its life cycle, it makes far less money.

@YOG3NSHA @EsoCollecto For that matter, why was Nintendo aiming for a CERO A rating for Smash Ultimate? It's not like CERO B or CERO C rated games get restricted. Plus even Mario Odyssey and Breath of the Wild got CERO B ratings, so why is it a problem for Super Smash Bros?

@Yanko67332011 @xMBGx Nah me either. But the point is that sony can be greedy as well with their games not just Microsoft/Nintendo. And now they wanna make more live service games

When your laptop has been broken for days, and your warranty covers it so you can send it to be repaired for free, but you haven't even gotten around to it at all because executive dysfunction. Just using your phone and Nintendo Switch for everything instead.

@marlisjun Let me just say I have XboxX, pc, PS5 and Nintendo I like them all each one has its positives and negative’s but if we going to to say which is doing the worse right now in this moment it is PlayStation with GT7 and their subscription service forcing you to buy to play old games

@theREkid99 Finally a point I agree with, yeah Microsoft probably would love to jump out of hardware and become a service but for them to do that they need Sony and Nintendo to allow it on their pieces of plastic

@ipeedinyourmom They announced that it’s coming to switch but I have a feeling they’re having trouble figuring out the gatcha system with Nintendo :/

@TheKingOfKingK Kirby is the better open world game really. The only thing Elden Ring does better is being multiplat, and that's just Nintendo's problem in general.

@YOG3NSHA Just to note in case people think I'm downplaying nintendo, if nintendo of the past had their way we'd all still have to BEG for permission to show ANY footage or gameplay of games online. Regardless of how you may feel about Minecraft, they helped fix that big time.

@a_________fish @MudCrabT1000 @MLBTheShow It's not your concern how Sony make money. They are a billion dollar corporation. That still made more money of video games than Microsoft and Nintendo did, last year. They can afford to put their 1st party games day 1 on their service.

Really wish I had known @NintendoAmerica has an issue with ring cons randomly not working. Could’ve saved lots of time and money by just talking the whole thing back to the store. How annoying!! Ruined my whole workout. Guess I’ll be back in the gym full time next week. 🥴

free idea for nintendo: make a music service where you upload osts for all your games available for free for nintendo online users. its that easy

@NintendoAmerica One of my switch accounts got disabled (i have no idea why) and It wouldn’t let me in to sign in with the Nickname, I deleted the account to see if I could end up linking it to another account for fortnite but its still linked to my deleted account, what do I do?

Onto my nintendo switch and my case full of ds games. Easily over 2,000 worth of damages if it’s broken. I’m so pissed right now.

Hey, um- Does anyone know how to fix a Nintendo Switch screen? Asking for, um, a friend.

@YOG3NSHA Nintendo issues stem from their bussiness practices. Sonys issues stem from their bussiness practices, their handling of foreign media their games or lack their of and much much more. So in other words yes nintendo has many issues, but sony is accumulating their shittiness.

@MikeOxlong1889 @Amthomaslove @NintendoAmerica To be honest, emulators suck. A lot of people have problems with 6-gen console emulators. They are buggy, then the game crashes, then the sound freezes. Wii emulators are awful.

Well, I was going to make an April fools video for YouTube on my Nintendo 3DS, but I couldn't get the capture card to work. Hopefully it's not broken as I still have some 3DS videos/streams to make. Hopefully I can make an April fools video next year.

@mastercuk @Nintendo Yes, but we got MUSHA Aleste. What's stopping them from putting other Compile games on the service?

I got my first video game console on my 9th birthday I think. It was a Nintendo DS lite. I still have it. It’s now almost 14 years old. It’s buttons were broken so I repaired them. The contacts were ***** so I cleaned them.

imagine a nintendo direct drops tomorrow. no announcement, no thumbnail. you click play. it starts on a black screen--then, suddenly, the super smash bros logo appears. the music swells, then stops... and you hear a familiar voice: "I'm Doctor Michael Morbius, at your service."
