Sub for any gaming related content!
Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I got a feeling in my gut that the switch 2 is going to do pretty well and I kind of hate that. Or if it does fail to meet expectations it'll likely be cause the tariffs and not because Nintendo's greed.
Hard to say, with the world economy being so volatile right now. I can say that as someone who has owned every one of Nintendo's consoles and handhelds (even the Virtual Boy!), I have no intention of buying a Switch 2. Nintendo's done plenty of shady stuff in the past, but everything about the Switch 2 smacks of arrogance and greed on a level beyond what they've done before.
Oh look. Another Nintendo console that I'm NOT going to buy.
My last one was a used Wii that came hacked and I could load anything into it, and I'm perfectly happy if that's the last Nintendo console I'll ever buy.
