    @sister_wow @NextGenPlayer You mean the one Xbox is trying to artificially induce? Cuz Nintendo has only released one $80 dollar game that isn't an upgrade edition. And Sony/other publishers don't seem to be following suit. They thought they could bait em, and up Game Pass's value. Glad it's not working...

    @videotechuk_ @NintendoAmerica Nah, don't justify even higher prices, 70 euros/dollars is expensive as is, add in fact that publishers like to price things at 10-20 dollars more in poorer countries for whatever reason and it's a hellhole that deserves some AAA crash

    @Xamoel @sonic_hedgehog If it happens, I hope Crash and Spyro come out on other platforms, and what about PlayStation and Nintendo characters?

    Nintendo claims the Switch 2 Joy-Cons are built from the ground up—but stick drift is still a problem. They literally copied the internal design. Clearly, the only lesson they took from past consoles is that people will keep paying to replace broken controllers/Joy-Cons. #Gaming #Switch2 #NintendoSwitch2

    @NintendoAmerica Can we fix mario kart? Bugged wall jumps, 0 progression progress, no multi-player free roam. The game feels unfinished. Which is wild considering how long you said it's been finished.

    @sagdivide32257 @onlyhereforpkmn They did, don’t be silly. Nintendo already made it publicly known even before the switch 2 became available that Pikmin 3 specifically was one of the game that had compatibility issues. They have a dedicated website for this.

    @CONEY Idk i spent 3 hours just roaming the open world and found quite a bit of random stuff, I dont think its particularly a problem with this game. (Other Nintendo open worlds tho...) Music is the best part of the game tho by far.

    @LIGHTANGEL_EX @Nintendo i really don’t see the issue. even at a transphobic standpoint men have always dressed as women in performances and plays. This is no different in my eyes. So most peoples points crumble really easily

    $80 will work on Nintendo fans and 1st party Nintendo games, but the rest of the industry is going to find out. Fast track to AAA game market crash, esp if they keep virtue signaling in games, offering stale content, and lots of bugs.

  • NatorMVP
    RG | Porkpants 🥓👖 (@NatorMVP) reported

    @Sadcat42069 @ModernVintageG Because Nintendo first party games are very polished, high quality, no day 1 patch games. Nintendo launched a new console with a new multiplayer game and it worked. How many new online games have server issues the first couple of days?

  • burke7187

    I have much less of an issue with a game like this being $80 than a Nintendo game that could have been made two gens ago and that has a much smaller team and dev cycle. It's just where the industry is going.

    @Moskaato @Stealth40k @GyoJvfr Yes, and every time it happens, it’s a problem. “Nintendo isn’t the first time that’s happened so don’t blame Nintendo” no, I will blame them for doing it because they know they can. If you do, in fact, do something, then you did, in fact, do the thing. Literally basic logic.

    @Xbox_Series_XS Nintendo is terrified of all these handheld PC that can easily emulate their hardware. Maybe they wouldn't have that problem if they made real hardware

    @seafairyservant @CaseyPhotoz @soniccobra951 WAIT EVERYONE I HAVE FOUND A FIX If u own switch 2 ver of deltarune u get the switch 1 version free!!!! Enter the download code that target provided to Nintendo website to get switch 2 version anyway. Then go to Nintendo’s page for deltarune (switch 1) it should say free download

    @MiguelGX9 @mrpyo1 And? I’m pointing out hypocrisy. If Pyo buys and enjoy every TLOU remaster then why is it a problem for Nintendo to offer a 10$ upgrade as well?

    @SteelSupport My Arctis Nova 7P doesn't show up as a sound output device on my Nintendo Switch 2. The system sees the headset as a USB microphone, though. I can't find anything about this issue. Are there plans to resolve it with a firmware update?

  • Monado_
    Monado // Justin (@Monado_) reported

    @KahunaCilver520 Same people that call Nintendo the devil of the industry too, like yeah they have their problems, like being lawsuit heavy and such. But at least I know the money for that $80 game isn't lining the pockets of the CEO. They're actively hiring people, not firing lol.

    Closing statement. This isn’t a skill issue, as most of it is just clutter from the amount of players. My sibling said ”you only have fun when you’re winning” IM NOT HAVING FUN BECAUSE ITS JUST STRAIGHT UP FRUSTRATING. This was a huge downgrade from 8 deluxe. Do better Nintendo.

    @OutOfPocketChum @LaprasKnowsBest @ArtistNcs It really comes down to picking your poison. Regardless, Nintendo fans will most likely get it. The best thing anyone can do is just to know what you're buying, what to expect for issues, and so on.

    @FortniteStatus I can’t matchmake on any map including Battle Royale and Brick Life on Nintendo Switch I keep getting matchmaking error #2 @FortniteStatus I’ve already redownloaded the game and cleared cache still having issues.

    @NierHellFire It is also important to point out. I'm talking about genuine good remakes. P3R, Resident Evil series, Crash Bandicoot etc Not ****** remasters Nintendo likes to produce. Unfortunately some companies really use the idea of remakes as a tool to get into players pockets

  • yungxvincey
    vincey (@yungxvincey) reported

    @ChurchOfMoons The problem isn't that nintendo can reasonably charge $80 because their software is usually worth it. The problem is that Ubisoft, EA and all the other mass market slopware companies are going to charge $80 and the games aren't worth it.

  • tempestwolfvt
    TempestWolfVT (@tempestwolfvt) reported

    @retro_cheater @ArtistNcs That's a good decision too. I should've stated *as of now* but then again, Nintendo never did fix the drift for the original Switch either so we'll have to play the waiting game to see what they do. We can only hope for the best.

    @Nintendeal It's basically an Xbox controller, dude. Why not give the respect to Xbox. They made Nintendo and Playstation fix their lanky controller designs by make the prototype controller.
