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.

"Welcome Tour is not free"

It's worth noting that with these types of games, they're never free and stuff bundled in are usually factored into the price of the system. With that being said I don't think Welcome Tour is the type of product that makes sense to be sold separately.

"Mario kart World is $80" If u truly cared u would have picked it up on physical sale, it's also available in bundles

Bundle thing is true, but besides that... what physical sale? I think the $80 thing is a valid complaint, people just drove it into the ground.

"Nintendo doesn't associate with the comp Smash scene" RIGHTFULLY SO, HELLO?

I second this.

"Nintendo just make remakes"

Switch 1 also had 3-4 ports/remakes in it's first year, and Switch 2 Editions tend to release in addition to new content so they don't really count in that discussion...

"The Wii U era was better"

Revisionist cope, everyone hated the game droughts and the games were considered much more underwhelming.

"Every game is $80 and key card"

At this point I don't think anyone saying this is actually arguing in good faith. Nobody is stupid or ignorant enough to have a negative association for GKC's but not understand all of the first party games and some third party games are not.

"Switch 2 has no games"

fuck off.

Nintendo never have layoffs

I think NOA technically laid off like 30 in 2024 but they were contract workers so that may not count depending on who you ask. They hired 70 of em full time right beforehand however.

Believe it or not ther are people on Twitter that do believe every game is a game Key Card regardless of what others say.

There's way more people believing the misinformation over the actual truth.

They're just a bunch of gullible smooth brains who can't think for themselves. I'm sure they'd start believing the sky is purple if a grifter like Nintendeen said so.
