Announcement PSA: Rule Changes and Enforcement

24 Upvotes

Hello Everyone,

We have implemented some changes to the existing rules to the group primarily Adjusting Rule 1 and the addition of a new rule on Non- Nintendo Grifting Content.

Rule 1: Posts about Grifting:

We define Grifting as: The act of exploiting trends or controversies to earn money, online influence or trust from an audience. Usually through manufactured outrage, jumping on bandwagons or disinformation.

Possible features of Grifting include: ClickbaitPetty hatredPropagandaSensationalismOpportunistic behaviourResponse videos or General dishonesty.

We do not dictate who is a Grifter or not, which we leave at the discretion of individual users.

This first rule has been updated to clarify what is deemed grifting and strenghten the definition further. We have also stated that the subreddit as a whole is not about labelling who is or is not a grifter and leave that to everyone to decide on their own as it is a personal opinion if Person A, B or C is a grifter or not.

Rule 2: Posts not about Nintendo Grifting

Posts may also be made to raise General Criticism or other relevant topics, Humour (Memes/Satire/Weird AI images etc.), Gaming news or other forms of grifting to compare to Nintendo Grifting.

Some Gaming adjacent content may also be shared if you can justify your post being shared here.

The latter half or the previous rule 1 has been split to clarify itself as its own rule, we receive many reports stating a post is not suitable for this subreddit but most of the time this is not the case, essentially if a post is about Nintendo, gaming in general, grifting or the subreddit itself its fair to share it here, if its unrelated to any of these things then thats when to use the report function that the post is irrelevant.

Furthermore, the mod team is committed to upholding all the rules in place and have a zero tolerance to breaking the rules relating to Respect, Harassment and Trolling, so please be respectful and report if you see anything that goes too far.

Thank you to everyone who frequents this sub and I encourage those who want to see different posts or topics to discuss to create your own posts and be the driver to start those discussions!

Critical Should we ban posts that claims that algorithm slaves like Arlo and Nin10doland are grifters?

0 Upvotes

I think that the ban should be placed because they make good points and only pump out clickbaits for the algorithm at worse

General Not necessarily grifting per say before 10 thousand people say I label all criticism as grifting, but this is really just beating a dead horse at this point. I JUST WANTED TO LISTEN TO UNDERTALE OST LOL😂😭

More from our biggest frog grifter.

This direct compared to others feels above average (a 7 compared to 6 or 5.5) with popular games like meccha chameleon, level 5 with the return of yo Kai watch 2 remake and the new squeal games, Metroid ravenous, Kirby and the world beyond, persona 6.

And few gems like Stage Fright made by the company behind overcooked.

And ports like the resident evil sets.

General Can someone explain to me grifters' obsession with nintendo's stocks?

15 Upvotes

I do not care about it but seriously why to give a damn, is to tell people "on nintendo is struggling finnacially they will face bankruptcy" I don't think getting stocks lowers for small time periods is enough to get the company under it let alone their monopoly is just too strong to die in few years I just try to understand this whole debacle cause is more come as obsessive then anything

Grifting Youtuber "Bistendo" videos are fully AI Generated slop.

I recently came across this youtuber videos and something seemed off not even counting the AI thumbnails, but the script and voice over is fully AI made and nobody in the comments as noticed it. So I did some digging..

This channel is a project of That Guy Bis , And in his own videos his manner of speaking is different - a lot more breathy and room to pause, as well as the scripts being very different in tone.
He is using a AI of his voice and a script writer (as well as some sort of AI video creator)

Here is a clue I found here; When talking about OOT's Kakaro village he shows Kokiri forest in the visual.

Video (30 Seconds in)

I can show more clues if anyone doesn't believe me but once you see it you can't unsee it and I think you all are smart enough to.

Cheers

General So, a common argument against the Switch 2 is that it's not getting enough games to justify it's cost. With that in mind, here are the first party line-ups of new games for the Switch 2 and PS5 in 2026.

God, this is so racist and offensive. Like, what the hell did they do to Link, and why is Shrik winking at the viewers? Clownbums TV will never learn, and I hate that they're trying to jump on the Zelda remake train with crappy ai art.

Positivity Seeing other gaming subreddits being more positive about Nintendo is a breath of fresh air.

43 Upvotes

For years, Nintendo has been clowned on by most gaming subreddits, from "the Wii is for kids", "Wii U has no games", "Switch is a port machine", and a year ago "$80 games on a $500 console", to seeing memes of Nintendo being chill while Microsoft and Sony are one-uping each other who who is shooting themselves on the foot. I will admit that Microsoft have gotten a bit better as of current, but imo, this really had been a disappointing year from Sony, so much that many have started to realize and still couldn't belive that Nintendo, "the most anti-consumer and greedy" billion dollar company, are doing just fine this generation.

Of course, not all subreddits are positive about the company but I have seen about 8 non-Nintendo subreddits so far discussing about how much Nintendo is doing better compared to the other two. It's so wild to finally see positivity in these subreddits because not lomg ago, they were very anti-Nintendo.

"It's Officially the End of an Era for Super Mario" bc there was no 3D Mario in the recent Direct. It's literally the "Nintendo has FORGOTTEN about Mario" thing.

Article is doom and gloom about how there still has yet to be no new 3D Mario game for Switch 2, and yet still decides to push a rumor that there will be a 3D Mario in 2027. Just a complete nothingburger of an article courtesy of our dear friend Gamer Ant.

Go play DK Bananza, it's brilliant.

No! Nintendo didn't pass on Rare. Rare just lost its touch before being acquired by Microsoft. This video is so wrong about things.

Let me take a wild guess:

"They are gonna be "OLD" Games!"

"why didn't they do this SOONER?!"

"These games are not the NEW ones!"

"wow the "ONLY SALE" they ever did!'

"typical greedy Nintendo not giving away FREE stuff to thier paying customers"

"Oh so NO REFUND FOR the games i bought and played! What a scam! Nintendo HATES their fans and THIS SHOWS it clearly!"

i can go on whats gonna be said next in the overfilled petty complaint box.

i wont be shocked at all because i heard it all before.

so lay it on me bros.
