@SuperKoolRaven @ASimpleSample and nintendo should make their online service free but they should make a switch online plus for extra stuff

@minhtra80 You're in the middle of it which is literally why we are having this conversation. Also Nintendo hardly even apologized for breaking consumer law with the joy cons, so... That's the point you're gonna make to defend this game? It's this toxic fanboy culture why we have this issue

Sorry if anyone else wants my Miis, I can’t give you the access codes. It requires paying for Switch Online, and I’m not paying Nintendo for their ****** service.

Saw some dude pick apart the Switch library by putting in subjective guidelines like "ACCLAIMED" or "RELEASE IT NOW FIX IT LATER" instead of focusing on the actual problem. (Over reliance of porting, which I'm personally fine with but Nintendo is weird with it).

Nintendo Switch dock stopped working, unfortunately. The power cord isn't the issue - it charges fine when plugging it directly into the Switch. But no big screen playtime until I get a replacement dock. (Not a huge issue, I didn't do that much, anyway.)

@Moth182001 There’s a typo in your tweet let me fix it : POV the mind of that person at Nintendo who thought giving any weapon* Splashdown was a good idea

Rent seeking was an after thought by Nintendo when they decided to invent the first DRM chips for the Famicom and NES They mostly wanted to avoid the kinds of crappy, offensive games that flooded the Atari market and helped cause the Video Game crash of 1983

@rchdmr i didnt know this was in eternal but it sounds similar to the nintendo approach where if you die too many times they give you a powerup that makes you invincible just so you can get past whatever is giving you trouble, which i think is cool

@Kazv00502404 I feel that he has high chances, just actiovision to collaborate, just to see all the marketing on top of the crash that Nintendo was giving, I still have hopes, just wait to really see, and Sakurai has everything that is a rival console 😬 I think so cool

@BenjaminMastin @ValdishOO @SketchedBat Yeah Nintendo is also usually the most antsy about the concept of emulation but at the same time they’re kinda part of the problem because they usually leave people with like no other option

@NintendoUK Yes, but it's too laggy and the game crash. I'm very disappointed...

@TheNCSmaster It's unfortunate how Nintendo puts so much time and effort into making revolutionary one of a kind game, then locks them away for 12+ years before maybe acknowledging them again. Putting more GC/64 games on Switch is not going to crash the company or ruin future sales 🙄

@RaveofRavendale It’s actually so funny. You guys won’t say anything to a 60$ price tag for a AA Nintendo game and will gladly pay for them. But u refuse to pay for a AAA high quality game? I think the the 70$ price tag isn’t the problem here. You are just another Micro fan who would bash Sony

I have really bad joycon drift on my Nintendo which will hopefully be fixed soon. At first I didnt think it was mich of a problem since I would just suck it up but it has become practically inpossible to play pokemon snap without fixing them. So unfortunately no more cute pics -

@227Grayman Because with a VC, I can keep the game. Even if Nintendo decides to end their service 🤔

@iTRUEStealth @XboxGamePass A lack of Japanese games was a problem for Xbox until recently. While Nintendo has been chill about 3rd party support since the Switch's launch when they finally decided to get some good games for the system.

Speculation: Nintendo is going to re-launch their online service this year, and roll it out with many more features that should’ve been there from the beginning, with more systems included in their free game offerings. They could also do nothing. Neither would surprise me.

@kingmonkey25 I would love for Sega to port the original Model 1 Star Wars Arcade game to the Nintendo Switch like they they did for the arcade perfect Virtua Racing. But I understand, licensing would be the main issue for this to happen.

@Ranting_Demon @JeshyQt @ValdishOO Nintendo released super Mario bros 3 in a collection on the SNES, and then separately for a few dollars on the Wii and Wii u, and then in the service for switch online, not really a $69 rerelease

@MiaKnowsAll @ArloStuff On the video he talked about the games as a whole yet just prised Nintendo, that's the problem, just credit the developers even if they didn't make all the decisions or whatever, and it's clear those games were widely different from thebones Nintendo did, so it's not all Nintendo

@Zacadak @NintendoUK Also you should keep in mind that not everyone has money for the switch, which is very expensive. Especially games go never on sale and if they around 5-10 Euros cheaper. So you excluding kids/teens with parents with low income. This for me is a problem.

(@PcElitest) reported
@PMS_Jordan That's actually quite a hard poll because the Switch on its own has absolutely abysmal third party support. so it's a choice between some third party games with input lag and stuttering or just Nintendo games with a few 3rd party games which look and run like ***.

@DiegoEs2002 @ArloStuff Yes, I don't think we should disregard Nintendo either but my problem comes from Arlo not just not acknowledging on the video (maybe he didn't knew the developer was Capcom but I doubt it) but now he is making excuses to pretend they weren't important in the first place.
