it is always morally correct to pirate nintendo games

I remember when people used to complain about the annoyance and difficulty inherent in keeping up with the Joneses, and yet it seems like we have learned nothing as a society.

If you're gonna spend $500 on a Switch 2 because you want little Billy to be able to play the newest latest games so that his friends won't think he's a weirdo, then you're in for a penny, you're in for a pound, fucking shell out.

But if you just want little Billy to have some games to play to keep himself active and interested and, you know, not spiraling into drug addiction and depression, because apparently that's the only alternative to being a gamer, you could buy them like a really nice 200 some odd dollar Anbernic handheld that comes pre-installed with, you know, 5,000 video games and let him play that.

And if his friends complain about how he can't play the latest Switch 2 Mario Kart game, you tell billy to tell them to go suck a dick while he's 100%ing Majora's Mask.

Hot take: Nintendo peaked with the Wii.

3ds, but yes. Your point stands.

I don't mind the Wii U but I think it was marketed wrong

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

The Wii U is fantastic. Lots of great games that run smooth as butter on the Steam Deck without any fancy setup required.

Oh, that's not how it was marketed? Weird. That's the first I heard of it...

/s but not really.

Reason 99 why not to purchase killSwitch, ever.
