@RSPN_Hideouts Im glad the fix is coming tysm for the hard work. I hoping that you & the devs will take a look into other platforms being able to glitch & play in Nintendo Switch only lobbies on Tokyo. Its hard to enjoy the game casually & have fun in ranked when pc & players abuse the glitch🙏

Imagine a situation where Nintendo says "We can't release this game on the eShop, because it would hurt the secondary market if we re-released it in this form." That's the problem with Magic the Gathering's reserve list.

@Helptendo @super_red56 @NintendoAmerica It's the same issue in that i just said i didnt want to pay extra just for one game., especially not a whole console.

@NintendoAmerica The fact that they didn’t launch the service with this game is baffling

@RoguePCustoms @shawk670 @Yoei_RetroCOOL Also, they let smaller makers do all the trial and error then when done they contact said factory in china and copy the mold. Again, this has happened multiple times. Yes it’s owned by Nintendo..but then we would have ANY of these shells made

@ActualAero $110 for the whole game experience really doesn't sound pleasant, I know a lot of people might drop Nintendo if that happens. Then imagine if the keep NSO as a paid service, and increase its price as well. I can just imagine the outrage

like. the boom in players since shb, and the necessary expansion of events like fanfest in turn, seems like one of the things they actually COULD fix instantly with money. so... why is it such a scarcity fight? lack of foresight? the nintendo "fake scarcity" stunt? they keep

1. Xbox, after the acquisition, would still be behind Sony in the gaming industry. And Tencent too. Like, this wouldn't even make Xbox the leader! 2. If the "competition" (like Nintendo and Steam) are cool with how Microsoft is handling things, then what's the problem?

@NintendoAmerica This service rocks so much and I can't wait for this to drop... too bad the whole NSO library will be gone when it's discontinued in ~7 years

@Sammie_cutest @JuniorReyes17 @charlieINTEL You use the term bullying. Im not sure you understand what it is. Sony is the only company besides Nintendo being exclusive. Microsoft is trying to be inclusive for everyone. Sony is the issue here. Why cry about inclusion for everyone? Please explain and don’t cry bully

@YaibaniS @KaijuVGC @PokemonUnite lmao Gamefreak is the creator company of Pokémon, not Nintendo. They can't fire themselves. Also Gamefreak never apologized about the bugs on the game, just Nintendo. Because they (Nintendo) decided not to give the GameFreak team more time and put out a broken game bc of money.

@BottlesTheMole @yggdrasilsaltar @NintendoAmerica I guess But also we only have 6 If we had like 15 at launch, sure But man, sucks *** that, at best, we end the year with the gba service at 15 games, which is kinda sad for a service i pay more for

@DoryaMaster Yeah fair enough. Agreed, Steve needs to be nerfed. And if Nintendo comes back to Smash Ultimate, imo, they should fix up the “low tier” characters. (Little Mac, Bowser Jr., Isabelle, all of those that struggle against the rest of the cast!!)

@PaulTassi @Forbes I'm not sure how capable CMA board is to read an agreement. The deal was made with Nintendo, not the Switch specifically, and this includes next-generation consoles that might, and probably will be, more powerful. They trying to find a problem where there is none.

@Ruleof2Review This is such a hilariously bad take on two different levels. Not only is it terrible because it's supporting scalpers, but it's even more ridiculous that it's also justifying Nintendo's weird supply issues with its games. It's 2023, there's no reason we can't produce enough

I've been seeing a lot of extremely good players IN S RANK You can't tell me the rank drop thing isn't an issue Also I've heard that X rank sucks ***** now. There are so much things to fix and I hope Nintendo addresses these in the upcoming patch. 1/4
