I like how this article does not talk about the anti consumer practices engaged in by Nintendo, that might push some customers away from their consoles. /s Nintendo can disable your Switch 2 for piracy in the U.S., but not in Europe, as confirmed by its EULA. There is already a switch in my household, but the price along with the ability to remotely brick the device, is what made our household pass on the switch 2. We bought a second steam deck instead.
I mean, it’s very expensive. If I were employed when it released I’d have probably gotten one, but there’s what like 2 games that are exclusive to it?
It can wait until I can afford one. Probably on sale.
i was employed during the 1st switch launch(the one after oled) pokemon turned me off from the console game forever, also masuda made a point that pokemon will not get any better later on, because hes all burned out from the industry.
Yeah that’s the problem there’s nothing really compelling for it. Plus they’ve done their classic Nintendo thing of take a great product and then just add a bunch of gimmicks and claim innovation e.g the mouse mode thing nobody cares about. Also them being tight about the controllers and not putting decent hall effect even though they know they have a problem. It just proves that they don’t actually care about their customer base.
I’m not the target audience for the switch 2, but i honestly wouldn’t buy it just because how shitty they are. They sold a tutorial game that should clearly be free. Donkey kong is like 80 dollars and just a month or 2 later they released a dlc for half the price. The games don’t even seem to be good. Mario kart is mediocre at best, metroid is embarrassing. And the company itself is pretty embarrassing itself with their lawsuit crusades
pokemon got worst too, and its likely thier flagship game thats probably selling the most.
