It’s not about liking or disliking it, but thinking that this decision somehow hurts Nintendo. The absurdly naive belief that online opinions, especially here, actually affect any change in the real world.
Buy Nintendo products, or don’t; but don’t pretend like that has any effect on the company. Boycotts haven’t worked in decades.
No, I just have an adverse reaction to collective stupidity. I know I should try not to let it get to me, but when I see a bunch of people engaging in collective delusions about the state of the world, it upsets me. It’s like people choose to believe that just because what they’re saying sounds right, or should be right, that it’s actually the way things are.
This is how we get voter apathy. This is how we get Trump winning because “certainly people won’t support him THIS time”. I’m just sick of people pretending that anything in our society still follows the old rules of morality and justice, and then getting dismayed and confused when it doesn’t.
I just wish more people would see the world for what it is, rather than make shit up that sounds good and desperately pretend that’s the same as reality.
Yes. I did in fact say those things. Such a good job using quotes!
So your evidence is me telling a person having a mental crash out and making a childish rant due to overexposure to the internet to get off is your “proof” that I voted Republican? Weak shit.
My man, I’m as queer as the day is long and have voted blue for longer than the first time your mommy congratulated you for not shitting your pants at the age of 12.
But please, keep acting like a pathetic gatekeeper. It’s not like you have anything else going for you in life.
Oh my God, I’m so sorry that I have a realistic view of the world rather than pretending the opinions on here are in ANY way reflective of the general public attitude. Please forgive me for thinking critically and not just immediately guzzling that sweet, creamy, copium jizz.
“Anyone I don’t like must vote Republican”
Hey shit eater, you don’t know me. You’re making assumptions based on absolutely nothing other than me not following the Lemmy hivemind. You need to have clear, firm evidence before you can make a claim.
For example, you’re a mouth breathing idiot. My evidence is based on your previous comment; a clear, firm example of stupidity. What exactly do you bring to the table?
This thread: “Nintendo so stupid. Everyone hates them! They’re gonna go bankrupt cuz no ones going to buy their games because of their bad business practices!”
Reality: The Switch 2 has one of the strongest console launches, despite increased prices. Their games continue to hold more value than others, with used games selling for near, or even above, their original sale price. Their consoles and games remain the #1 pick for families with kids.
You people are delusional. Yes, Nintendo’s practices are scummy. No, this does not affect their numbers in any way. They are still wildly successful, and even if they weren’t, they have such a huge reserve of capital that they could operate in the red for 20 years and still be fine.
Isn’t there just the one movie, which is the series finale? Unless you’re talking about one of the holiday specials.
For some, that is the point.
Misleading reports like this hurt far more than they could have possibly helped.

I want to buy a game online. How do I use cash?
This person I’m replying to loves eating their own poop.
I’m using the same amount of proof they did for this claim.
Wow! I’m embarrassed to admit I didn’t know he was still alive until this. Really was a pioneer in musical comedy. I still like to use New Math to confuse people, and of course his song about Wernher von Braun is legendary.
97… We should all be so lucky.
The band saw was also created to cut through meat and bone.
You’ve done it! You’ve fully killed Bitcoin! Now it will certainly become irrelevant! In 5 years, the top answer for “what would you do if you had a time machine and went back 5 years?” definitely won’t still be “Buy more Bitcoin.”
1 dollar is currently worth .0000084 BTC; or, 840 Satoshi if zeros scare you.
He drew a swastika next to a AfD candidates name. Not sure what the big deal is, they are straight up Nazi’s. Doesn’t seem like he should feel compelled to resign for calling a spade a spade.
Takeoff/landing is by FAR the most dangerous time on a plane. Like, even “in theory” there are just SO MANY more factors that could go wrong compared to when its just cruising in the air.
Unfortunately we wished for it on a monkeys paw and we got the America Party.
