Lets say you buy a new car. You're driving around in it, and it starts raining. You turn on your wipers, and they start whizzing back and forth across the windshield at full speed. You go to adjust the speed only to discover there is no adjustment to be seen. You think your car might have had the wrong wiper stock installed, or it must be in some other location you can't seem to find, so you look in the owners manual. No mention of the wiper's intermittent settings or where it's located.  So you google your car,'s horn only to discover there actually are no intermittent wipers installed. See the manufacturer thought it would decide for its drivers how fast their wipers should be moving at all times, so it quietly removed the ability to change the wiper's speed from the car's design. This leaves you confused! Intermittent wipers were standard equipment in every other car you bought from this manufacturer. Every other car in this car's category has intermittent wipers. There was nothing in the pamphlets, car reviews, or websites that mentioned that these new cars do not have intermittent wipers. You just thought it was a given. A standard feature. But, you didn't ask the salesman if it had a intermittent wipers,  so the manufacturer tells you to go kick rocks. It's your fault for not asking the right questions.

Yeah, that makes sense.

It's reasonable to expect a tennis game to just have the ability to adjust game and set lengths. Quit blaming the consumer for Nintendo's poor choice not to live up to reasonable expectations.

Can't quit doing something I never did, I take it you're not understanding what I'm saying somehow. Well here's the bottomline; you can keep blindy buying games day 1 then whine and make excuses when they're not what you wanted, or you can learn from this and better inform yourself before buying games in the future. All up to you!

You literally are blaming the consumer for complaining about something that they had every reason to expect to be in the game because you think they should have known that it wasn't in the game because if they "did their research", they would have known.

The Gamestop review doesn't mention it.
The IGN review doesn't mention it.
The Gameinformer review doesn't mention it
The Eurogamer review doesn't mention it.
But hey, the Destructoid review gives it one sentence.

Yep. it's obviously the consumers fault. Clearly the average switch-owning arcade tennis fan should go into more depth than some of the most popular game review sites around. That makes sense for them to go the extra mile and dig further  on the sixth game in the Mario Tennis series, when the other games have the feature, and there was no reason to expect the feature to be missing this time around, you know, unless they went to Destructoid
