@Cesar_is_phat @eaphen It's definitely extreme compared to the competition, albeit the service is still leaps and bounds better than Nintendo's Online. Nintendo's makes me feel like an ******* for being subbed to it, but I have a family sub and I'm paying for other people so it doesn't bug me as much.

@NintendoAmerica , is it normal that I can't visit my gf's island? It says something about error and that I can't connect to the other console

@PredaZap @_BlessedRed This is false. Anyone who has played Nintendo games online with their friends, or a poorly implemented PC multiplayer know that reliable servers are crucial. Additionally, being able to easily game/speak together is valuable. It is genuinely a service, not a wall

@javikatan @cronieees @geoffkeighley Exactly. This also stops sony and nintendo from being like "well 120 for their service we can add 20 to ours it would still be cheaper" we all win.

@tlwelch85 Thing about Nintendo is they literally do nothing to justify charging money for the switch online service, it's p2p, no servers are maintained, it's a paywall and yet it still looks better than $120 for xblg, that's how badly Microsoft have screwed up today, it's shameful.

@HiitssJohnny Netflix has no games and yet has less content over time and has increased prices over said problems. Even worse thanks F2P games. Netflix offers less and charges more. Sony is and argument Nintendo has no social abilities so year they can charge less.

I like Nintendo DS games but the problem is that most of them have become dated unlike the majority of Super Nintendo games.

@summonedswords And when I said same quality online I meant Nintendo. Like, the quality of Switch online service BEFORE they charged for it is the exact same as it was after they started charging for it.

@undertalefreak7 @forestillusion when compiling a debug version of a game/program, code optimization is not performed as it makes it harder to find and fix problems i also doubt it is running on a wii u, most nintendo games are developed on devkits or standard computers

@XboxP3 @vicious696 @Xbox How does this pass? Why did it take this level of backlash to do something Sony and Nintendo have been doing since their online service launched?

"You're stupid for believing in Nintendo" they said "Buy an Xbox, their service is better" they said I hope Xbox forcefully charged everyone who shat on me $120 extra for the new year.

@PushDustIn New Nintendo Switch drops in November boasting a new 1080p screen for handheld play, thinner bezels, and an upgraded chip with better performance allowing for 4K output to TV. Unfortunately, the joy con stay the same which means drifting remains an issue.

@Neosbeyond And yes I get it what you meant with not the franchise because mostly people are pressing on the graphics just because its on Nintendo Switch. But we all know MH is never about graphics but more to gameplay. Its the game we all love when graphics’ not the main issue.

@odelgado013 @SpawnWaveMedia Nintendo listens to their customers when it matters, but not when the issue is miniscule in their eyes. As for this situation, NSO is $20 bucks, so what they don't have is pretty much tempered by the fact that it's small peanuts to play games online for a yr.

@GravesMainYeet Playstation and Nintendo are both okay. They both specialize in different things Also removing any of them would cause a huge drama issue in the gaming community Honestly i would vote out the Atari.

@AKAMorphined @anthonymtsr @IGN Yeah, I got 4 Joy-Cons repaired for free by Nintendo well over a year ago and haven't had an issue since. Mailed them in, got them delivered back to me less than a week later.

@KaSyl_Town @LongTimeNoSiege @ElCornaKing Oh I never have issues with Dplatoon, only smash and SMM2. I don’t disconnect from any other Nintendo game other than those two aforementioned. It’s kinda pathetic how little traffic control and no dedicated servers plays out for a billion dollar company.

For what it’s worth, @xbox live is nearly twice as good as PSN and easily 5x better than that Nintendo Online garbage. It’s pretty easy to see where they were coming from. Go ahead and hate. I subscribe to all of them and couldn’t care less about your halfwit fanboy issues.
