nintendo has done a HORRIBLE job at controlling the narrative of the switch 2. i hear random ass people complaining about $90 games or how they can just randomly decide to brick your console for no reason at all. like, IRL randos saying that. online, i still see tons of people complaining about having to pay money for frame rate and resolution enhancements, but the upgrades that do just that and only that are free. then you had people complaining about the price of mario kart world and then nintendo has the direct they say is going to change people's perception of the price, and it shows off like 1 new minor thing. nintendo content creators are carrying HARD and even they miss things pretty often.

it's great, glad to see people finally waking up

@Alex well, what i'm talking about isn't really people "waking up" it's people hearing some clickbait on the internet and not investigating any further. physical games are not $90. mario kart world is $80 but metroid prime 4 and donkey kong banaza are $70. nintendo isn't using game key carts for their first party releases. game key carts only exist because the cartridges are really expensive to produce and the games going on them would have just been strictly digital otherwise. the technology for an OLED screen with the same specs is literally non-existent. mario kart world has reverse versions of tracks despite nintendo never clearly revealing it. game upgrades have variable pricing.

etc etc etc etc

what i'm saying is that nintendo hasn't done enough to control the narrative around the console so people are getting their heads full of "fake news" as it were.

there are also things that nintendo is doing which playstation did as well or worse, but they never really got shit for it. the only thing playstation got shit for is having no games. i think it is basically "cool" to shit on nintendo. for good reason, imo, but you have to still get your shit straight.

Yeah, I agree, I hate when people agree with me for incorrect reasons or argue my points with lies. It undermines the entire side they're trying to fight for.
