I’ve noticed in a lot of Reddit threads the outright hostility towards Nintendo games and Nintendo fans in general gaming subreddits.

I really hope this isn’t the case here.

    My love for Nintendo games has a direct correlation with how much I am frustrated at Nintendo for their harsh stance against emulation and their general shittiness towards customers.

    I think you just only followed communities where Nintendo weren’t popular. I mean, there is a sub for every major Nintendo game, and one for Nintendo themselves.

    Wait. You really hope an entire collection of instances and, furthermore, the entire collection of communities within each instance, will have the same exact opinion, of -at the moment- being pro-Nintendo.

    You really must be joking right?

    There is absolutely 0 chance you will find one opinion spread among an entire community, let alone here in the Fediverse where it’s multiple communities.

    Each person has their own opinion and/or agenda and that’s the best part. I really hope this side of the entire continues to not be able to be labeled a singular thing since that is immoral and outright incorrect, on all fronts.

    So to answer your question: Who knows? To each(user) their own.

        Every place is the wrong place to ask this question.

        Putting a label or asking a community to reveal their manifesto is not a good look or how conversations should be started.

        The correct thing to do is participate in communities you seem to like and if you find out that you don’t agree with that community on one or more fronts, then by all means, please create a new instance and/or community on your own and run it according to your preferences. This is the intended purpose of the fediverse: If you don’t like it, do it better by yourself.

        I wish to hear all opinions in here by all kinds of people.

        I wish to hear the worst and the best arguments on a topic.

        Doing what you ask, as in join a pro-Nintendo community will 100% have a bad outcome since it will, by definition, be an echo chamber.

          This is completely wrong. If there’s more discussion for a product like the Steam Deck vs the Nintendo Switch despite the staggering difference in the size of the install base than that community is BROKEN

            Are you trolling?

            I mean I guess Lemmy is deeply rooted in the open source community so I believe that people here tend to have more interest in the steam deck because it’s an open system running on linux so there is a huge overlap in the communities.

            Also why do you believe that reddit is anti nintendo? The nintendo switch sub alone has almost 5 Millions subscribers and is in the top100 sub reddits.

    Nintendo games - generally great.

    Nintendo fans - mixed bag.

    Nintendo corporate - shitebags, the lot of them.

    Don’t know what you’re talking about on reddit, and I definitely haven’t seen it here.
