Bruh nintendo seems starkly opposed to getting even ok at modern networking.

More likely it’s just an older game now with less popularity, and they expect their viewers to be the younger-ish crowd.

Arguably that falls under both 2 and 3, but yeah entirely unique challenges or play modes is another reason to watch.

Makes enough sense, as goofy as it sounds.

1. No Money. - Videos let me watch games that aren’t worth buying to me along with letting me parse games that look fun enough to buy.
2. No Time. - Videos can be put on during other chores or tasks, left on as background noise during times where I would absolutely not have enough time to actually play a game.
3. Skill Issue. - No matter how good I want to be, I’m ultimately just kinda ok at games. Watching higher level players can be a way for me to learn tips and tricks to improve, or they can be a way for me to experience difficulty levels of the game I will never realistically achieve on my own.
