    Am I the only one thinking that a huge chunk of the initial audience are Nintendo adults who already have a pc for main games and a switch on the side?

    Feels like this gimmick (although every new Nintendo console gets one) was so forced just to upsell a switch 1 and justify splitting the community with exclusive releases. Really sad to see mk world not playable with a player base on switch 1. Most next gen were happily bought enough with a reasoning in increasing hardware (which the switch 2 really also does well).

    Just the predatory move of splitting or even passively force the playerbase to leave behind the switch 1, makes the mouse sensor so MEH… I mean… lackluster in my eyes. Idk



  • Change in reality is not a switch in a day.

    It’s a long process, and so a slow decline in demand. If demand for the unethical product would be flipped with the ethical one like the opposite of what we have now, the practice would effectively be irrelevant and since it’s only alive due subsidies likely also very unprofitable – therefore ‘bought away’ unlike the title claims

    It’s a demand issue. And that’s an issue because lack of education for example (at least in my eyes), education about epistemology, logic, moral and empathy

    We as individuals are NOT responsible for what consequences other demands bring, this angle feels like taking the burden of the collective world onto one self. But that is not the case







  • What is it worth it - 600 doubloons for a kart game?

    This is worth it if it came on the switch 1 too, theres no reason other than greed (literally evil greed, games are culture and a core for social integration in todays world). Mario Kart 8 was worth it 500 because it was times pre-covid and pre-2-class society. This might seem “radical” but its the bitter reality.

    I want switch 2 to be successful, I loved the detail in the reveals - pacing, audio and logo design in these clips full of gameplay brought me to tears as a creative. Seeing artists still having the possibility to polish their crafts like that. I think my first paragraph has weighted in the balanced evaluation.

    I just hope people will have good times with entertainment and either receive a product worthy their social features or at least include the switch 1 people, while they themselves deal with having no new gimmicks versions or reduced perfomance. Or at least hope people can find balanced entertainment with people who did not choose to buy themselves into products worth nintendo’s stock
