@DavitMasia IANAL Any content you host can be subject to legal issues (DMCA/Copyright/etc.) If you are not the one running or supporting a hosting service (i.e. one crops up, don't associate with it) This is why Nintendo's Game Builder Garage has no game finder. It's all external sites.

@crowns_dev Hello, I was wondering if there is a fix for my character yet. I'm that person that you refunded because I got stuck inside the barn monster box on Nintendo Switch. Unfortunately I'm still stuck. :(

If you were stuck you couldn't do **** about it either except check out an issue of Nintendo Power and hope the answer was in there or call a 1-800 number and get your *** beat when the phone bill came in

@honesttearants That Game was a Mistake, and fade to obscurity as a result of the game being a flop and limited to the Nintendo DS, And Dimp's Never ever did a Crash Bandicoot game again.

Way to go, Nintendo. Downloaded the Kirby demo, had fun, decided to splurge on the full game. Funds added, click here to purchase! ERROR Huh. Let me try again. Click to add fu- ERROR ... Ok? Check my bank account balance. Charged twice, no game in my library.

My only hope for Breath of the Wild 2 is that Nintendo fixes the biggest problem from the first game. That being the whole no music thing the game did. Exploring a massive, fairly empty world in almost total silence is not that fun imo. #BreathOfTheWild2

@godfree Actually consumer value. They continue to lag behind Xbox and Nintendo in providing longer term value because PlayStation is forced to carry a ton more water than it should for Sony. The real tell will be if they go day one first party like Game Pass. Otherwise, it’ll be an L.

I criticize Nintendo about some things, but every single time I’ve ever had to interact with their customer service, it’s always the best I’ve ever experienced.

Literally the only reason I’m not buying Nintendo’s Switch Online expansion pass is because they refuse to put in button mapping for N64. They won’t get a cent extra for this service until that happens. Please. 🙏🏻 @NintendoAmerica @Nintendo

@ronakpw @mschaef_ectw @Lord_Arse Nintendo had to carefully market the NES, calling it an "entertainment system" and using terms like "game pak" rather than "cartridge". The super stringent seal of approval also made sure the market would not be flooded with garbage titles, which was part of the issue in 1983 (2)

@PatTheNESpunk @pxlsicle #CUPodcastTopics In another example of video game companies taking copyright far too seriously, Nintendo issues copyright strike for a scan of a 1996 Mario 64 players guide.

Gut tells me that Sony (like Nintendo) are going to bank heavily on nostalgia and legacy with their value add service.

@CliftonB To be fair, it's likely to be easier to remap there than if the problem were on Nintendo's hardware. But yes, this make my head spin.

@Utownwarrior The only « problem » this console has is that it doesn’t have Sony or Nintendo games. Which may not be a problem for you so..

@JimThe2000sKid @Saturn537 @NintendoAmerica I was actually considering reposting the reply to specify "Late post-game spoilers" instead of just post-game, but even if I did do that, it would still imply a post-game existing. I guess you just can't account for everyone's niche issues nowadays.

@RPoochyena @creamie_demon I will honestly list these consoles internet strengths as follows Xbox Nintendo PlayStation (PSP Vita Exempt they’re fine) I’ve always had nothing but issues with WiFi on PlayStations PS4 and it’s…dreadful….and my other devices work fine on the network

@Koskinator33 @NintendoAmerica @Nintendo You can map the buttons in regular settings yeah but the problem is that in order to get certain C buttons on a “Pro” controller you hafta hold two different buttons to get it. Unless you have an official N64 controller, which you can’t even buy. LOL
