@ShaggyMN1975 @NintendoAmerica It seems to happen much more frequently online, but it has even happened to me a few times offline as well. Hopefully they address this issue soon.

@NintendoAmerica How about you fix the A.I. in this game then I'll think about it. Also tell NextLevelGames to go back to their old roots of how the 2 previous games were. They're supposed to be like that not like this.

Gist is that the Nintendo 64 I got from my grandparents didn't have the AV cables, so I purchased what I thought were good cables from Amazon, but they've broken after a single plug-in/plug-out. Looking at reviews of other cables shows they're equally garbage.

@NintendoAmerica You know you're stacking up LOSSES if you: Play a better game (like Xenoblade 3), say Wave 2, say Wave 3, say ratio, saying Daisy should've been at the start, sticky ball glitch, demand Splatoon 3, and not understanding how the seasons in the game work. Give it a chance.

Another problem is that he only mentions nintendo games and only one indie game, so might be saying “what’s the problem he mentioned those game”, the problem is that he doesn’t mentions other games that has bad graphics.

@JennaJohanna_21 Had tried writing a few times. Had problems. I was a c/o at the time in a p/c segregation unit. An inmate, Nintendo, broke the us vs them mentality and opened up to me. He was writing a novel. It was a beautifully hand written series of shorts with a high Victorian prose about

My problems with the video is that he only mention nintendo games and only one Indie game, and not talking about the big triple A games that have bad graphics, but he also forgot to mention what makes a game fantastic that is the gameplay.

@LazyBot5000 I LITERALLY said in the thread that Nintendo obviously was the one that does the update decisions, but these games have some design problems in them that can't really be just "They were rushed by Nintendo"/ You literally did not read my thread

@MldGhost @Nick_Marseil It just shows the problem Xbox has had since the mass acquisitions; They have more announced games than the competition, yet very little released. Both Sony and Nintendo have announced and released games in the same time since a lot of Xbox's game announcements.

@MCwreckshin @NintendoAmerica It's probably not even a glitch. You just have to swing stronger than before. It's probably to avoid 10 strikes in a row lol.

The live service model works best for free games like #Fortnite or #Hearthstone, but IMO it really doesn't make sense for games you already have to pay $60 for (glaring at Nintendo). I understand the logistics, retaining customer interest make the numbers go up.

@NintendoAmerica I'm begging for you to actually learn what live service games are like if you wanna make them so bad

@PownicMania5000 This makes me think if Camelot were being sincere or not considering the problems they caused onto themselves. I can also say that regarding current Paper Mario games, with the only fault I put on Nintendo or at least the marketing team as a whole is the “mandates”.

@RaineyOvalle Probably cause some of the parts are made by different companies so there's bound to be some compatibility issues, not like a switch or something to where all the hardware made by Nintendo

@brallivar @Jesterface84 @NintendoAmerica it's legal to jailbreak but it can be a bannable offense when you play online but Nintendo Online is a trash service anyway so not like they're missing out lol
