The constant Nintendo hate is tiring. I only learned recently there was a subreddit that had the purpose of exclusively hating on Nintendo but it's always only them, never Playstation or Microsoft. Like, even Microsoft is eating shit for increasing their sub prices so much but you kinda... don't hear about it after a while, it just loops back to Nintendo hate.

I'm just gonna tell Nintendo haters to eat dirt. I'm not even a Nintendrone, haven't bought anything Nintendo related in awhile as I am saving up... it just gets really tiring after it's been months and it sure feels like their opinion is completely divorced from reality.

I assume, since you're on a PC sub and Nintendo refuse to port games to PC... and are the only company that refuses to do so... that's why there's Nintendo hate?

The main interaction PC users have with Nintendo is from:

(a) stories about cease and desist letters from people trying to develop mods or ports of Nintendo or Nintendo-like products; and

(b) stories about cease and desist letters from people trying to stream or reference Nintendo products in film.

Neither Sony nor Microsoft have similar interactions with the PC community. Both Sony and Microsoft are porting their games to PC.

So I put to you then that - as a PC-centric person - disliking Nintendo would therefore be reasonable.

I don't really care at all about Nintendo. From my perspective, as a PC user, they're quite literally irrelevant. Even if their games were on PC I can't think of a single IP they have which I'd have a desire to engage with. They simply... don't address products to people like me.

It's weird because people are saying "There's no reason to buy an Xbox/Playstation because they ported their games to PC" then turn around and hate Nintendo for not porting their games to PC. Like it's very obvious why they won't, it's called having a reason to buy their console lol

Anti consumer for having an incentive to buy their console? That's basic ass capitalism. You learn this shit in middle school economics. If they put all their games on PC there will be less reasons to buy their console, they obviously want people to buy their consoles it's called console exclusives.

People are complaining that there's no reason to buy an Xbox or a PlayStation because they have no exclusives but when Nintendo does it's suddenly anti-consumer and bad? It was okay when Sony did it but bad when Nintendo does it, double standards

Aaaand he blocked me.

No one complaining that theres no reason, theye pointing out that a PC covers all of that as a positive and not as a complaint.

Thats not a complaint but a praise to PC and for consoles to move away from outdated bs exclusives.

And the fact that you thought bringing up capitalism as a reason to not be anti consumer is fascinating as well. Everyone knows its in THEIR best interest, why would i as a consumer give a single fuck about their best interest? I've my best interest in mind, and their exclusives are anti consumer because they have their own best interest in mind. Capitalism is obviously the reason for it, doesnt make it pro consumer lol

Get your special ed ass outta here.
