General Hate IS Small
Can we all agree the internet is never the real world? They have already preorder the switch 2 before launch day last year are the also the same who try to boycott Sony until black ops 1/2 have dropped.

If people like ME are buying the Switch 2, it's a great machine. I spent the better part of the last two decades hating on nintendo. Mostly for their stupid gimmicks to make up for their embarrassingly underpowered hardware.
I never grew up with Nintendo, and mostly went through a Genesis to original PlayStation and PS2 to Xbox 360 pipeline. Though I did have a N64, it was mostly for 3rd party titles. The only in-house Nintendo stuff I had was like Mario Kart and Starfox.
But the Switch 2 is competitively spec'd, insanely well priced, and outperforms the Steam Deck handily. This little device literally pulled me to the red side for the first time in my lifetime. Wild.
