This thread: "Nintendo so stupid. Everyone hates them! They're gonna go bankrupt cuz no ones going to buy their games because of their bad business practices!" Reality: The Switch 2 has one of the strongest console launches, despite increased prices. Their games continue to hold more value than others, with used games selling for near, or even above, their original sale price. Their consoles and games remain the #1 pick for families with kids. You people are delusional. Yes, Nintendo's practices are scummy. No, this does not affect their numbers in any way. They are still wildly successful, and even if they weren't, they have such a huge reserve of capital that they could operate in the red for 20 years and still be fine.

No, I just have an adverse reaction to collective stupidity. I know I should try not to let it get to me, but when I see a bunch of people engaging in collective delusions about the state of the world, it upsets me. It's like people choose to believe that just because what they're saying sounds right, or should be right, that it's actually the way things are. This is how we get voter apathy. This is how we get Trump winning because "certainly people won't support him THIS time". I'm just sick of people pretending that anything in our society still follows the old rules of morality and justice, and then getting dismayed and confused when it doesn't. I just wish more people would see the world for what it is, rather than make shit up that sounds good and desperately pretend that's the same as reality.

I mean... The Switch hardware was obsolete before it even came out.

> The Switch hardware was obsolete before it even came out Show me a more powerful handheld from the year 2017, that has the same (or smaller) size. Just 1 example is enough
Are you suggesting that the hardware wasn't extremely outdated? The Tegra chip was 2+ years old at the time of release. The Switch has been incredibly successful, has had solid first party games, and was successful with it's gimmick... But it's a fact that the hardware was outdated the moment it was released. -
Lots of people **do not** buy them, for exactly this reason. When I can play Pokemon games on my Steam Deck I'll think about buying them. Until then I'll continue hating on Nintendo to anyone who will listen. And many more who won't.there are ways
