    I mean, it kinda makes sense as a webcam for only being used with the Switch 2… from a ‘minimum viable product’ standpoint.

    4 picture in picture windows of 640 x 480 on a 1920 x 1080 screen?

    Eh, good enough, rofl.

    I mean yeah, this is a joke, I also had a 640 x 480 webcam 20 years ago… but its very clear Nintendo has pivoted to the ‘milk all the accumulated goodwill out of our customer base’ phase of grand corporate strategy.

    They’ve gone full Mr. Krabs.

        But they sold the permission to have this garbage made with their character and branding.

          To Hori, a company that makes fairly decent third-party controllers. They likely had a reasonable expectation that the product wouldn’t be shit.

          It disgusts me to defend Nintendo in anything but this just isn’t their fault.

            Companies usually get a test product before approval. That’s because you wouldn’t want to license to some who might go rogue for some cash and do a Nindildo or such.
