@cyan_hue @OnTheDownLoTho @NintendoAmerica It’s your business if you don’t want to pick it up again. I’m not trying to make you, but to insinuate nothing has been improved upon when it has is just factually wrong. That, on top of the fact others have tried to say my take on the issue is wrong when they haven’t taken

@SaturnMemories A lot of the problems just boil down to them being weirdly adamant on trying to find a middle ground between all platforms while also making the Nintendo Switch their first priority. All they're doing is leaving a bad first impression.

I just learned that most of my Nintendo power issues from 2009 till the end of the magazine's run which my mom hid without telling me are wet and probably mold ridden. Pretty devastated tbh. The only issues that are unharmed are the four I have in my room. It's my own fault for

@mr_normus @YggdrasilPsyguy @Reecee_yt It's not "fix it later" because the game was never broken to begin with. But anyways my point was calling Nintendo Switch Sports the most shameless Nintendo product is super pessimistic and blatantly untrue with the existence of products like 3D All-Stars

@isynthx While I think third party games make a console's library more diverse and Switch fixed a problem Wii U had, 3rd party its no longer a selling point because most 3rd party exclusives eventually go multiplatform. Altho nobody buys a nintendo machine for 3rd party

@cyan_hue @OnTheDownLoTho @NintendoAmerica It may not, but it’s no longer relevant since it’s been fixed. That’s dwelling on the past and I will never understand why such a thing matters. If you’re going to hold a grudge for something that no longer matters, that’s a personal problem.

@KSmarties Also the issue of important partners being bought out. Example: Nintendo or MS buys SE and then Sony loses their foothold in Japan. Some one buys Mercury Steam or PlatinumGames and those are two partners gone

@NoName78633552 @WCGamingTweets I respect Atlus enough to question their decisions regarding the platforms they choose. If I wanna play SMTV, Ill get a Nintendo Switch. If you have a problem with that, find another hobby.

Copyright and intellectual property is somewhat of a gray area, but Disney, Nintendo, ect have no problems sending cease and desist letters and taking people to court.

@nahidtislam @Chinchillazllla Why couldn't Microsoft and Sony just follow Nintendo and keep the standard layout since it had no problems to begin with?

@NintendoAmerica Saved multiple times. Switch died. Charged the system. I was then moved back countless save points to a previous point in my Earthbound save. Why am I paying for a service in which I can’t progress in a game reliably? Beyond frustrating.

@Chinchillazllla for xbox copy nintendo controller and then change the buttons placement? sure i guess but i never had trouble going between systems and remembering what buttons are what. lot of time don't even think what each button is and just what they do in a game anyways.

@nordic91_andre @Chinchillazllla that doesn’t even matter lmao bc Microsoft, Sony and even Valve share the same controller layout for the past decades! Nintendo should be the one who should fix their controllers (and I’m not talking about joy-con drifting)

too much. Also, don't play with wired-mode on a Pro Controller if you can avoid it. Nintendo's HID Game Controller driver adds an extra frame of input delay. 3) Tick rate online: Both games use similar netcode, just with Splatoon 2 being more optimized to NOT be Disconnect Hell.

@ZVAARI How do we know if Activision will shelve the Crash franchise though? The games since NST did extremely well and it’s possible for a company to work on multiple titles (look at Nintendo and Capcom)
