What can I say, mate. I could only take so much of this disheartening. In nearly 2 decades, since the day I picked up my first gameboy color, this is the first time I legitimately feel embarrassed to be a Nintendo fan. I don't hate them, oh no, nor do I hate their games. I hate their outdated management that seem to think that people will shell out 400$ to play Arms and 12Switch.
As much as I liked the Wii, it's ultimately what's ruining Nintendo today. The management is too arrogant. They want Wii/DS success levels when it's next to impossible after the rise of smartphones. You'd think the losses they had in the 8th gen would've been enough to snap them out of it, but I guess not.
I still stand by what I said before: The day Ninty possibly quits game development, I stop playing games. Maybe the occasional retro stuff, or something I develop, but that's it. |
I wasn't really impressed with Arms and 1,2 Switch either, but it was the other games they showed which really won me over. Splatoon 2, Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade 2, Fire Emblem Warriors and the 3rd party games got me excited for the system. There are some serious issues with the Switch, like the launch price and paid online, but not something that only Nintendo is doing, with it now being a 'standard' due to XBL and PSN+. I don't think it is as bad as you make it out to be, and thinking on it now, I don't think it's as bad as people are making it to be. It's just the result of another terrible practice becoming a norm, and... slightly more expensive pricings.
Dance my pretties!
