Dude, nobody 'outgrows' nintendo, in much the same way nobody 'outgrows' Pixar or classic Disney. 

I'm 32 years old, and I still find more enjoyment in my Switch than basically anything else right now. Zelda, Mariokart, Mario Odyssey, Splatoon, and many others have gotten more play time out of me in 2017 than anything on Xbox One, Ps4, or PC. Oh, and Pokemon. Loves me some Pokemon, for sure. 

I mean, this thread is about opinions and explanations...but I am genuinely curious how someone could 'outgrow' Nintendo. 

Or people who 'don't care about story based games'. Or people who care more about multimedia functions than games. Are you from The Onion or some other satire site? It SOUNDS to me like you're the kind of person who anti-xbox fanboys make up to describe the dudebro stereotypes they perceive to be Xbox fans. Like, the way you describe yourself reminds me of the sort of way PS3/4 fanboys would mockingly describe Xbox fans in order to make them all look foolish. 

"Dude, bro, I don't care about stories in games, I just wanna SHOOT stuff, brah! Forget about all that kiddy nintendo crap, I can watch SPORTS on my Xbawks then fap to youporn and get mah chick down and dirty with some netflix and chill, bruh!" 

Are you a caricature? :P 

(I jest, of course, we're all entitled to our opinions, but I still find it odd that you say you outgrew nintendo. All jokes aside, that does baffle me)

I’ve been a Nintendo fan since the SNES.  I’ve owned every Nintendo since then (sans 3DS & Switch - yes, I even own a Virtual Boy and multiple Game & Watches).  Over the years I’ve become less and less involved with their franchises.  I’m not saying they’re bad, I’ve just moved on and found other gaming options and like I’ve stated, I’ve outgrown Nintendo.  It’s not out of the realm of possibilities.  Did every PC owner start on PCs?  Doubtful.

But seriously, assuming I’m a ‘bro’ because I prefer gaming to stories?  Come on, it’s 2018.  There are plenty of genres that don’t require a story in order to get fans - most of which don’t involve a digital gun.

You DO realize I was joking, right?
