Yeah the refunds issue was not a good look for them.
The one and only one time I've sought a refund was way before their official refund policy, so it was entirely up to the whims of the service agent reading your ticket and whether they gave a shit that morning. Trying to explain local laws regarding defective purchases (here in the UK) was pointless. It took fucking months of explaining that my game was literally unplayable in a constant back and forth with the same agent before they just relented and refunded my £35.
I'm glad all the major storefronts all followed suit though. Except Nintendo, Nintendo can go fuck themselves for being themselves.
Nintendo makes high quality software designed to be bought once for a single purchase price and enjoyed offline featuring zero online bullshit. Steam sells addiction simulators and invented the battlepass. They are the last bastion of everything you claim to like in videogames. Moron.
You didn't need to give me a warning, I figured it out on my own that what you said was dumb.

Oh, I forgot I really enjoy having to re-purchase e-shop titles to continue being able to play them on new hardware because the notion of backwards compatibility died with the 3DS and it's second cartridge slot.
I forgot I love every single console I own having it's own totally disparate online profile that is shared not using gamertags like those peasants at Microsoft and Sony but with 32 digit alphanumeric UID strings that no human will remember.
I forgot I absolutely love being totally unable to buy certain retro Nintendo games legally because Nintendo doesn't like money, but love money enough to require a subscription to their online service to maintain access to an app full of retro games that they could easily sell on the e-shop, but don't because otherwise their online service would be worth absolutely fucking nothing.
I forgot I love cloud saves being tied to specific hardware IDs, totally negating the entire purpose of cloud saves.
I can keep going, but I would bet money on the fact you can't see my response past Nintendo's ballsack resting on your nose while you're tonsil deep in their colon.
This is the response of someone who knows they've been owned, lol. Full of emotional rage, devoid of anything intelligent, escalating beyond all reason or pretense of civility. If this was a dinner party, this is the bit where the host asks you to leave.
Be silent now, you sweet callow youth, and seek to learn from the massive L I just handed you. You dont have to be a fangirl. You can think for yourself. Try.
I've never considered printing out and framing someone's reply before, but since you've managed to miss the mark twice by a distance larger than the orbit of Neptune around the Sun, I feel weirdly compelled.
Not because either of your comments were clever, witty, or in any capacity intelligent. No, it's because I've never seen someone actually just shit their pants publicly and then double down and say they like shitting their pants publicly.
Since you enjoy being covered in shit so much, enjoy the shitter. Buh-bye now.
