No that vote with your wallet shit has gotten old and crusty. I can’t think of a single company that has worked for. There needs to be legal consequences for this, fight fire with fire

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen some instances of voting with your wallet having desired outcomes.

Not really. If you treat Nintendo as a lost cause for the foreseeable future, voting with your wallet and not buying any of their products is good for your mental health. It’s about extricating yourself from an abusive business relationship.
