Nintendo are rightly losing their free pass with gamers.
Where is that? Cause Switch 2 pre orders are sold out.
That has happened my whole life, I'm 44. Nintendo supposedly does low first batch numbers so the can get in the news that they sold out. Then scalpers sell the machines for $1500.
Sure but I don't see any evidence of Nintendo's decline. The truth is that gamers are incredibly spineless and will continue to bootlick corporate boot unless they put "something woke in the game" at which point they'll leave a review somewhere and still clock in 300 hours if entertained enough.
I've seen no evidence of this. People are clamoring for the switch 2 and talking about all they want to buy. Fuck Nintendo, but people keep giving them money so they're going to keep doing anti-consumer shit with no sign of any government stopping them. The government isn't going to attack one of the most beloved companies in Japan whose mascot they used at their olympics. A lot of Japanese are event against things like free, labour-of-love randomizers made for old games. People need to stop buying their shit globally if they want anything to happen.
that was the same issues with swsh all the way to arceus, people were repeatadly warned how half-assed the games were, and then complain later on the subs. they still bought it.
Heard that before, this happens every decade or so
That is very true, but the Venn Diagram overlap between Gamers^TM^ and ‘Nintendo gamers’ is a rapidly shrinking area.
