I love being angry about meaningless topics. This is less about me wanting better baby games, and more of me hating corporations and watching them make billi...
Also on alternative frontend that protect your privacy:
I watched for a couple minutes then stopped. It’s clear they had no intention or interest in the Switch 2 before all the outrage so why bother to watch the next 18 and 30 seconds…
From what I watched it is heavily biased against Nintendo and from someone who clearly isn’t the target audience.
My interest in Nintendo has been slowly slipping away since the early 00s and I wouldn’t even call myself a fan anymore but videos like these are worthless.
I don’t know. I never had a Nintendo before my Switch, so many things in the video were uknown to me.
Yes, maybe the criticism leans toward the hateful side, but Nintendo is pushing it too far with their tactics these days.
Life goes on, I suppose. It seems gaming has hit its developmental ceiling, and companies are scrambling to find new ways to milk the cow for every drop.
Nintendo aren’t the monster they are being played as.
I do think the price is too high for the console, games etc but they have always been slow to the party in many ways. That also means they create amazing stuff that the others cannot and have forged their own path. Don’t hate on them for that aspect.
Well joining the party of others is not good, when the others do shit, is it? This is not for framing Nintendo the devil and other console companies as angels.
Global console gaming is dominated by three major corporations, all now focused on expanding profit margins (with ‘margins’ being the keyword). Nintendo, with its strong loyal fanbase and historically stable pricing, is the easiest target to start another round of game price hikes.
Thanks for the share. I laughed and agreed with most talking points. I do wish it was shorter, 20 minutes where a lot of the topics are repeated throughout definitely could have been edited down a bit. The funniest part to me is that this may cost US folks $600 when the $450 price was already on the idk if i can justify buying this side.
Yeah it was a bit lengthy. That’s why i only watch youtube videos when i am cleaning the house or doing other stuff. Well when they are more like a podcast anyway.
You know the people that screamed not to buy the PS5 pro and games like the last of us part 1, a completely rebuilt game compared to the original…
Those are the same people that will buy a switch 2 and defend a $90 pride tag on a Mario kart game. I won’t buy a switch 2 for $450. That’s fucking insane. But the console will get scalped and people will still buy it for $800-$1200 for fomo reasons.
The console for $ 450 is not that insane (although it is somewhere PS4 power equal), the game prices and some other anti consumer practices are. I am playing in PC, and the only console i had the past 15 years was Switch. I did not know many games where dropped to $20 before Switch only to resale them at $60 after.
Many gamers had no problem with a $70 some years ago, buying the games and now its going up. Until they realize it, they will ask themselves why $120 games is the new norm in a few years.
Also charging $10 for playing the games you own in a new console that you bought, without almost no content, man consumers suck hard for accepting that.
Meh, I have only watched first 5 mins and video is too biased, and not all points are correct. Even some of the correct points are arguable whether they are actually as bad as it make them sound or not. Just seems like an anti-nintendo rant, which is fine, people have the right to rant.

For the information? It is not only about Switch 2, it is about Nintendo.

Outrage farming is getting really tiring overall, not gonna lie. It’s OK, everyone, we can feel other things aside from angry and life will go on.

Great video. Nintendo is the Apple of the gaming industry now. Pay for overprice and under-power hardware.
EDIT Also their fans defend them no matter what. Like Apple fans.

I normally set these to x1.5 speed to help as well.
When is possible yeah. For example, reviews by Gamer’s Nexus is impossible to set it x1.5. Steve talks so fast, feels already in x1.5.
