Fuck the switch 2 and if you buy it you're actively making the community worse by okaying their shitty practices.

This. Still dont understand how people actively let Nintendo piss in their face and shit in their mouth for nothing but enjoyment. Nintendo fans just give off an immense aura of "briandead coonsomer" to me. Literally just emulate it. Same game, better performance and cheaper, wheres the downsides?

I'm surprised that the company hasn't gone under yet. Anywhere else in the world that might be the case but not in Japan.

Are you constantly baffled by why people buy consoles instead of simply building a PC, researching and configuring the right emulators, ripping or sourcing the desired ROMs, and getting it all working? We as techies are by far the minority, most people just want to play the game and don't enjoy the tinkering.

No, completely understand that ofcourse. But Nintendo fans prove time and time again they are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome by talking down the people who've had enough of Nintendos bs and lovingly run back to purchase the next overpriced and underperforming console.
Dont get me wrong, i completely understand why non-tech people dont want to put up with it and that we techies are a minority. What baffles me is the undending devotion the Nintendo fans have for their abuser.

I just don't think the complaints about Nintendo are half as bad as some of the abuses coming out of the rest of the industry. Nintendo treats their workers well, they don't exploit addicts with gambling-based business models, they sell complete products on day 1 rather than rushing out unfinished disasters. And yes, I like their games, I like them a lot more than pretty much anything else coming out of the mainstream AAA space.
No corporation is perfect, and there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, but they really could be so much worse and I just don't get how the level of vitriol directed towards Nintendo is only directed towards Nintendo and not anyone else.
Most of all though, I'm just tired of whenever the circlejerk turns from "I personally don't like Nintendo" to "I will actively insult anyone else who has the nerve to like something I don't like, how dare they." I'm tired of being talked down to for the unforgivable sin of liking something. Can we at least fucking stop with that shit? Please?

I like valve and my steam deck but I don't get why they don't get more shit for CSGO skin gambling.

Im not complaining about people liking Nintendos games. Neither am I saying that other AAA studios are flawless. Nintendo more often than not release finished products, apart from others (and with a few exclusions such as scarlet and Violet iirc). Nintendo is not a good company, neither is most of AAA studios. I would probably be more likely to play a Nintendo game myself rather than orter AAA titles. If a person has brain cells enough to recognize Nintendo and the industries flaws they are not the target of my complaints. Im sorry there are people out there worse than me who would continue to shit on you even after provingly displaying insight on the matter. Yet my point stands, people oblivious to the situation who keep coming back to Nintendo, without calling them out and letting every poor decision slide are part of the problem.
I honestly dont know about how Nintendo treats their workers, and honestly, if a Japan-based company has better work ethics than the rest of the industry I am impressed. On the other hand the industry is so shit for workers it shouldnt be a hard thing to achieve.
My personal stance is that people who blindly follow anything are pretty stupid. Nature gave us a frontal lobe for survival - make use of it.
