And I get that. Really, I do. The first thing that popped into my head. But I guess the issue I'm having with this more than anything is that scalping abuse like that fell onto Nintendo mismanaging stock more than anything. Also, it still feels as though this is meant to feel like a way to directly encourage getting the Online more than it is distributing the controllers (which again, I get, but still it makes me feel some type of way rn). I can't honestly justify this, and I justify amiibo regularly.
