  @NintendoAmerica My money is on Crash Bandicoot

  @emilia_acnh @Cashminaacnh It was in issue that started a few months ago; there were ‘presents’ that were hacked that upon pickup got hard locked in you inventory and were literally impossible to remove. don’t think Nintendo has patched it.

  @Brudanos gonna say crash bandicoot for my serious answer and another pokemon for my "nintendo hates its fans" answer.

  @_MissClick_ Disney has no issues licensing out characters, example A is Fortnite. If Sora doesn’t work out it’s cause Disney wanted something Nintendo didnt (ie Donald and Goofy in the game)

  @TheSegajorn @NintendoAmerica My only theory is Crash. A party spin off game is rumoured to be announced too so it lines up. That being said Steve lined up with Crash 4 so it will probably be anyone but Crash lol

  @Krolliox @NintendoAmerica Finally someone with sense also crash tho

  @NintendoAmerica I want Geno, Crash or a TF2 rep, but it'll probably be Jonesy

  @DragonierZapp If only I had a ps4 and Nintendo hadn't banned me. I was planning to actually buy the game but 3rd world problems with videogames. If it gets a pc release though...

  @NintendoAmerica Crash bandicoot would be great

• 
  Funnyguygongon (@funnyguygongon) reported 22 minutes ago

  @NintendoAmerica I’m sayin either crash and will probably put crash 4 on switch or sora and kh3 or the 1 and 2 REmixes on switch, since hero came to smash when the next dragon quest was about to release

  @nadiakhaledx Some copy right issues and how dangerous it was. Any injuries would look really bad on Nintendo. Makes sense tbh but still very unfortunate

  @WavePrism_ and in general this is an issue with nintendo fans as they usually keep buying **** they do not care about just because nintendo made it

  @Simply_sunky @NintendoAmerica Hate to break it to you but fortnite is the next character. If you have a problem with that then delete the game

  @NintendoAmerica Crash or Rayman

  Brendan Miller (@bjmashpotato) reported 35 minutes ago

  @NintendoAmerica Ok hear me out on this. They use the K.Rool trailer for the 3rd time. It’s Crash’s silhouette, but then it’s revealed to be Sonic, because they both have spin moves. But then Crash spins Sonic out of the way, leading to the tag line “Crash gets N’Sane”

  @NintendoAmerica @Ultima_Wielder I really wanna see people's reactions when either Sora or a fortnite character gets in either twitter will break again or Nintendo switches are gonna be broken. This is gonna be so hilarious.

  @NintendoUK I want either Euden or Crash in! (I want more but those 2 are the top)

  @THEREALRTU It's even worse when this was preceeded by others Nintendo wrongdoings towards their fans. If was ONLY the C&D on that Melee mod I would be fine, the problem is what came before, like Nintendo refusing to cooperate with e-sports companies to make a Smash Bros. league.

  @NintendoAmerica Hades? Sora? Crash? Jak? Ratchet? Master Chief? Hollow Knight? Shovel Knight? Geno? Shadow? Pokemon? Fall Guy? Makoto? Yu? Tifa? Noctis? Bro it has to be one of this come on!

  I say this like I actually own a switch and play Nintendo games legally but still CRASH IN SMASH CRASH IN SMASH

  Either way people are hating on Nintendo now because of these issues. I think it’s all dumb. Except the fan events, that was cold!

  @supersteakbros @EMKReal @TSM_Leffen Tbh that specific example sounds more of Nintendo than him outright saying he's anti-competitive. Normally I've felt he was but this adds a little more color to the issue

  ...subjected to this in the past as well. The big issue for me that is a new step in a bad direction for Nintendo is their silencing of the Splatoon community. Here’s the deal folks. Nintendo will never be the company that supports eSports. Melee was fine during the...
