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
According to Switch 2 sales numbers, you are sadly the rare exception. Nintendo fans are gobbling up the stuff big N is churning out and asking for seconds.
We must be, “sadly”, 2 rare exceptions. My kid is still playing on the switch with no hope of getting the switch 2 until he is old enough to leave my house and buy it himself. Fortunately, he hates Nintendo’s bullshit behavior as well, and has been playing more on steam instead. And yes, I am brainwashing him against all the corpo crowd. Sue me.
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.
I watch maybe 5 minutes of any of those Nintendo game videos because after those 5 minutes it becomes incredibly stale and boring looking at the same bright colors and round shapes all the goddamn time.
Also the fact that almost all Nintendo games amount to what is essentially a fancy arcade game with not a lot of depth to them.
No such thing as bad pr when your company has millions of brainwashed fans who have literally never played any other games.

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.
Oh no like 1000 people buy them
Or we can watch those YouTubers to still partake in Nintendo games while not buying anything.

That’s me. I’ve been a day one customer of Nintendo systems for as long as I remember but they simply don’t deserve my money now.
I’m in the same boat.
Yes. The bullshit lawsuits are what finally curbed my Nintendo habit.
This. I was already losing interest, but I hard left Nintendo when Tears of the Kingdom came out and felt like an unfinished game
have you see then gatekeep the current slop of games.
