@Relapsedgooner @xALPHAzOMEGAx The reason I give Nintendo a pass on their games prices is because they always work and are 90% good games whilst other companies release broken messes but I agree it is expensive being a Nintendo fan sadly

So lets get this straight... according to them.. Yuga Labs – named after Zelda character, Nintendo IP Gargamel – named after a Smurfs Character, Smurfs IP Emperor Tomato Ketchup – Terayama IP (and maybe Stereolab too?) They sure have no problems stealing IP from others..!

@PlagueDocRex Space being a problem because these consoles are also getting generally huge when I already have a large PC. Nintendo seems to be the only company keeping things at a rational size but they also have issues, generally.

You can quite literally walk into a Walmart and buy Chaos;Head right on Nintendo Switch. Yep. Nintendo! Chaos;Head was suitable for its guidelines. Question is, where is Steam's guidelines? The problem is theirs are seemingly arbitrary, there's no consistency.

@KaoNinjaratzu @lincolone @Hideki_Naganuma I think it’s worth it being it’s own game personally, maybe not 60 dollars but that’s a problem for all Nintendo games for me not just splatoon 3

If Nintendo never came up with Donkey Kong, Crash Bandicoot would've had the opportunity to make Donkey Kong be a buff anthro donkey villain

@MarioOdyssey_1 @YoungBlight @NintendoAmerica This game got by with mod support to fix the litany of technical issues it released with. The Seitch does not have mod support. Bethesda released a broken game...again.

@TacoBelle117 But, Belle. It’s been established that it’s only bad when Nintendo does it. Sony can do it no problem. 🙄

@NintendoAmerica my connection issues in Splatoon 3 are infinitely WORSE since the last update. I disconnect multiple times a day, to the point im now getting BANNED from lobbies because its disconnecting so much. I dont have internet issues so this has to be your server. Fix it

I'm doing my part to #SaveChaosHead and #SaveSciADV. I hope @valvesoftware will revert this ban and look into their review process. Banning a game that's available on consoles is ridiculous, even more so when Nintendo takes no issue with it.

@Phanto_Minus @PownicMania5000 Like they're unwilling to take a loss here and there on software to make back later through other games helped by that work and earning customers' trust, instead just taking losses on hardware since it's the software that gives hardware value. Nintendo has a REAL trust problem.\

@GoldheartTTV I would like to ask as a representative of the Nintendo Simps Staff where the information about us hacking into others discords accounts came from, as we would like to address the issue and stop this misinformation from spreading. Thank you

@FloweryDingus shoutout to some of the problems being fixed with DLC and then they wrapped up development also them doing the usual "release barebone games and sprinkle in new content every 3 months" shtick that makes a majority of new Nintendo games dead upon release
