No such thing as bad pr when your company has millions of brainwashed fans who have literally never played any other games.

I know a lot of people including me that haven't bought a switch 2 after owning every nintendo console released in their lifetime because they're disgusted with with Nintendo's behavior. I'm sure some percentage of them will cave eventually but it's definitely a non-zero amount of money they've left on the table by being like this

You're already not considered the average consumer by using lemmy

That's okay. Youtubers still buy the new Nintendo games and consoles day fucking one all in the name of "cOnTeNt". (RTGame, Poofesure, and others)

So basically good fucking luck trying to get anyone to change when you have people advertising for Nintendo basically for free.

Or we can watch those YouTubers to still partake in Nintendo games while not buying anything.

I haven’t owned every Nintendo console, just Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Super Nintendo, Game Boy Advance, N64, Wii, New Nintendo 3DS, and Switch. But yeah, all the shit they’ve done recently means I’ll never buy a Switch 2, or whatever comes after it.

This right here 1000%. Nintendo used to get a lot of my money. Not anymore, screw em.
