Shit on Nintendo being "behind the times" and patent litigation, but they are the console I always have the most fun with. I pick up my Switch everyday, the Xbox and PS grow dust. That's just me, maybe I'm just too simple...

I have no problem with them being behind the times, if they even are. What's really annoying is suing people for downloading games that they don't even sell anymore.

Or suing people because they advertised their product for them. That one has never made sense.

Unfortunately the one behavior negates the other. How can I have fun with their products knowing that I could face legal action simply because I share my love of their games?

No sod that, I guess their games don't get streamed then. There are plenty of companies that are happy about the free advertising, or at least don't care either way.

Tbf the fact that it's a portable probably helps, if only the competitors would release a proper portable instead of a streaming tablet...
