Or, get this - if you want a switch 2, buy a switch 2 if you can afford it.
Me, not being a little baby man, am going to buy one at some point because I want to play the Zeldas and the Marios and no one is gonna keep me from enjoying those games when they come out—and I’m still gonna emulate on my Retroid ‘cause fuck Big Gaming.
I mean, my Switch works, and if Microsoft won’t port the Xbox UI to Windows handhelds, then I’ll buy a Steam Deck.
Didn’t plan to buy one, before the S2 was announced.
The number of anti consumer actions they take is amazing. They still hate YouTube. Instead of making their games not suck, they sue anyone who dares to try. They have a handful of console exclusive that even interest me, everything else I’ll get in Steam and it’ll play better, have cloud save, and a refund policy.
I bought a NES in the 80s because it was the most amazing, magical thing. Now I’m at the point of ‘Fuck Nintendo, let it fall’

“I did it. Nintendo is surely finished. This will definitely work.”
I’m getting one on launch. Love my OG switch and got many cherished hours of gaming out of it.
lol, ok. /s
I won’t. And not even due to the bad PR.
I never bought a Switch. Thought about it, but never got around to it. I guess I’m just not the target audience.
Though now in thinking about it, I bet I can pick up a good condition used Switch on the cheap once this comes out. Maybe I’ll get the first gen Switch after all!
I bought a Switch back in the day. Beat BotW and that was fun. Barely touched it since.
First gen’s are hard to find cheap due to how easily exploited they are.
By first gen I meant not a switch 2. I’m not too particular about which version or revision.
And that’s the only reason I’m even vaguely considering picking up a Switch 2 around launch.
That said, even with a gen 1 Switch, booting into the CFW is just enough of a pain that I don’t do it often. Gotta grab the shim for the rail, plug it into something that can deliver the payload… ugh.
I miss the days of Wii and PSP homebrew. No online shit to get banned from, no special booting techniques. 3DS cfw came pretty close in terms of ease of use.
That said, being able to pirate games directly from the 3DS and Switch was a big step up from having to transfer files over to the memory card (PSP) or effectively needing a dedicated external HDD/partition (Wii). Even if it was slow as hell and couldn’t use my full internet speed.
Done. Can’t afford one anyways.
can afford, absolutely no buy
Too late, I already pre-ordered. I’ll make sure to let you know what a shit time I’ll have with it. I promise.
I haven’t decided yet, because it’s not available yet. Once it’s available, I’ll check reviews and whatnot to decide whether to purchase it. Maybe I will, maybe I won’t, it depends on a bunch of factors.
Yeah, Nintendo sucks right in the legal department. But whether I buy their products has less to do with their legal department and more to do with the quality of the product.
What’s the TLDW?
Loud man thinks prices rising over time is evil, not inflation.
Loud person who makes their entire personality disliking Nintendo tells you not to buy Nintendo without highlighting any good reasons, just focusing on easy to hate on reasons.
are… are ‘‘easy to hate reasons’’ somehow inherently ‘‘not good reasons’’?
I wouldn’t say that no. But they are being used to whip people up into a fury effectively with out sharing all the facts. That’s why the video is ridiculously biased. Because if you came at it from a balanced perspective most people aren’t irrational. Nintendos actions while shit, all largely make sense.
Ah, fair enough.
Yeah, thank you for your comment. I don’t know if I expressed myself the clearest when I type things that I struggle with getting what I mean into words sometimes.
I am 5 comments deep in a thread asking for TL;DW and not a single mention of what was actually said in the vid, let alone direct direct critisism of it.
That’s just the human condition, but I think you did a good job.
Nintendo bad, so don’t support Nintendo.
That’s about it. I didn’t finish it either, but I heard the rant and figured I wasn’t missing much by not finishing.
This video has been doing the rounds but if I remember correctly they are overly negative and are obviously not the target for Nintendo and have no intention of buying the Switch even before all the controversy.
Ive been a nintendo fan my entire childhood and early adult life. I would say i am (at least clasically) nintendos target audience. I agree with the sentiments in the video. Nintendo is doing a lot of shitty consumer hostile things and people forking up ever increasing prices for decade old games will only validate their business practices and quality will further decay (like the games industry in general). That is essentially what he is saying. I will not buy the switch 2 (this video did not change my stance either way)
Granted his overly negative rant was a bit tiresome, it felt like he was impersonating the angry nintendo nerd without the comedy. But that just feels like any other yt video rant these days
WHY ARE WE YELLING?
WHY IS YOUR USERNAME YELLING?!
I wasn’t hugged enough as a child

THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW THAT NINTENDO IS WORSE THAN IF POL POT AND MING THE MERCILESS STARTED A KISS TRIBUTE BAND WITH POL POT PLAYING THE SAXOPHONE.
WOULDN’T THAT KIND OF DEPEND ON WHAT MING THE MERCILESS WAS PLAYING? YOU GOTTA GET SOME STRINGS IN THERE TO BE A PROPER KISS TRIBUTE BAND, SO IF HE WHIPPED OUT AN ELECTRIC MANDOLIN OR SOMETHING, I MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN LISTENING TO WHAT THEY COME UP WITH. I’D EVEN TAKE A BANJO.
I’M NOT SUPPORTING EITHER PERSON (FAKE OR REAL) IN ANY WAY, JUST BEING HONEST.
I fucking hate all caps titles.
i fucking hate all caps
🧢 ?
Not all caps
I disabled my caps lock button, and my life got so much better.
They didn’t even fix the annoying joystick issues.
How do you know? You played on a Switch 2?
How do you not know they haven’t updated to use hall effect joycons? You not read anything at all about this until just now?
They can fix the issue and not use hall effect.
They knew it from the beginning and never adressed it. Why would they, nintenodo babies are just gonna buy new controllers
Yes. I’m sure they can. I don’t think that they have, or will. See: the recall formula scene from “Fight Club” for reference.
