@trzef Seeing that type of stuff on YouTube is so frustrating. I like to go out and see if I can find good deals on games but people like them make it actively hard to get ahold of any game you might want physically. Even stuff like Nintendo power issues aren’t safe.

@TheEggman64 Emulation =/= piracy This is still emulation, just directly through Nintendo's service. It's just better to only say that you're not interested in pirating. No need to mention emulating, since you're already doing that.

Juwt to be clear, I'm saying this because I'm totally sure that there will be reviewers saying that this is a "commercial from Nintendo" or "the fan service destroyed this movie"

@delmontyb The problem I have is mainly with Nintendo specifically. They tend to think their games appreciate like a house. So if something is at $70, its never coming down. But, I rarely buy games at a $60 value anymore. I wait for sales bcuz the market is too saturated to buy games at $60

The second reason is somebody has to play school teacher. Remember the great gaming crash that happened because people were throwing any b******* onto an Atari system. Nintendo handled it and there early days with the seal of approval

@ProChara @BeastMode4TM That being said, I honestly believe Nintendo should fix the already existing maps before adding new ones.

@LordChiguire @SuperRADLemon Trouble there is, all three different Xeno are published by different companies. Square still has the rights to Gears, Namco Bandai has Saga, and Nintendo who owns Monolith now has Blade. And Square is stupid as hell about remaking games we actually want tbqh

I don’t subscribe to Nintendo Switch online, but if they announce the Gameboy Pokémon games for the service then I will throw money at them! 🤞🏻

My continued Nintendo switch saga: I found my games... but now my switch will not connect to the internet no matter what I do. Currently formatting the whole system in hopes that I can fix it 😭

@charcoalcharizd @Peyton02460675 Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop all had the same error then. Maybe Nintendo initially planned for the 13, but then decided on the 22nd instead. Maybe the stores will sell it once they receive it which could be before the 22

@reaver_troll @Noir19841 @Chris_Dring Superior bankroll? They didn't buy any big publishers, even their major IPs like Crash Bandicoot wasn't theirs. They simply did better than SEGA, and Nintendo was also doing dine on their own terms and is still strong today, without acquiring a major publisher!

Not to mention my Lite (Which I litterally got to fix the issue of not having a portable Switch) has a very mild clicking sound on the ZR button I have a pro controller for my main Switch thankfully, but it still sucks to see how easily broken Nintendo hardware is

@TWTHEREDDRAGON We don't want gamepass. Nobody asked for a game subscription service, we want to buy and own our games. Not some glorified rental service. Gamepass is cool for old games, give them a second life kinda thing. @Xbox @Microsoft nintendo and sony do it just right

Are there any decent third party alternatives to the Joy-Cons? Mine are suffering from the dreaded drift issue, and there is no way I'm paying the Nintendo tax for another pair.

@Dasmesee1 @AShortyfei They're already at over 30 million for Game Pass. A completely different service than PS+ or Nintendo. They have the best seller Xbox ever right now!

With even Nintendo hopping onto the $70 train with #ZeldaTearsOfTheKingdom, I have to reiterate: I would not have that much of a problem with it if that's the only price-tag attached. But it won't. Like Breath of the Wild, there's going to be a season pass. So I don't like it

the biggest mistake nintendo made in regards to the 1993 Mario movie was not releasing a 'Mario The Movie The Game'; let's hope that after 30 years they've learned the error of their ways

Hey, @NintendoAmerica—why aren’t the original Metroid devs credited on the remaster? Fix this.

@GrumpyBonesCos @PointCrow When we've seen more of the Mario movie than totk that's a problem. Arlo even agrees at the beginning of the video that he wants to understand more of the game and that's the problem that Nintendo hasn't provided that information.

Reason 2. Quality control remember the great video game crash the over saturation of games onto the market primarily aimed towards Atari. That would most likely happen again. Nintendo in the day handled it with the seal of approval.

@Cryptic_TX55 @LuigiBlood Even as somebody who likes VC and would want at least something like that to be an option, I do wholeheartedly agree with that sentiment especially with the bank for your buck that you get with the service now in 2023 by having many high quality Nintendo games all in one service.
