Without a justification/reasoning, it more reeks of a distaste for the platform rather than a mere feeling that it is 'just another device' in a vacuum of the market. No matter what picture you paint, an argument can be made that it is in direct competition with other devices fighting for people's dollars in an enclosed space. The counter argument can be made, most certainly, but you need to be prepared to back it up (especially considering where you are ~ a site dedicated to sales). It would be like someone being brought up on criminal charges without basis. No evidence/witnesses, etc, etc... People wouldn't (nor shouldn't) take that seriously and would rightfully cause backlash. Same principle applies here. 

Despite I never posted again since page 38, I was banned after this post on page 40, without warning or explanation. 

I only posted that the switch was on indirect competition, explaining exactly why and backing it up.

It´s like talking about if Call of Duty and Splatoon are direct competitors or not for your dollars. I guess nobody is going to be banned because of that right?.

I got accussed of  having dark thinking and wanting to degrade Nintendo without justification and nothing happened to those people. 

What moderators could achieve with this kind of behaviour was to kill the thread or at least the good exchange of ideas. When this page was reached ,(42), nobody wrote anything more until now. 

Maybe I´ll be banned because of this too without reason again, but I have to say this because I love to write about ideas and back them up, I like to discuss without insulting and describe not only the good but the bad from every system (Despite in this case there is not good or bad, just an argument about the nature of a console and the markets where its succesfull)

Like when in a sport game, the umpire became more important than the game. That shouldn´t happen, it´s no good. Not good for the writers, and no good for VGCharts forum.

 

Edit: Just in case, also it was mention that calling the switch a casual thing was downgrading it. In my case, I didn´t say that the switch was casual at all.

I don´t think it is. I even think that it brought more core players than the other 2 consoles behind it. What I did say that the Wii was for a casual and family market, and I think that is true and quite diferent. There were never such a broad audiece with videogames as the Wii had. 

 

 

 

I just read the reason of the ban. I was accused of trolling because of answering a post. The only thing I find in my post that is kind of trolling is this line.

 

"10- I corrected  myself, not a duck, people wrote that ducks fly well, Switch is a chicken and PS4 pro and Xbox one X are eagles or falcons. ;)"

In some countries the word chicken has the meaning of coward, I learned from "Back to the future" movie. Not where I live, but in any case that can offend some Nintendo fans, so it can be call as trolling. My mistake there.

What I was trying to post in a more funny way, was that the switch can be played like a home console or like a mobile device, but the home console experience doesn´ have all the bells and whistles that other consoles have graphically speaking. The other consoles on the other side can show that much better but without the posibility of playing on the go. So sorry for the word if somebody got ofended by that. 

The other issue that can be called trolling is calling Nintendo Greedy , but I think it is and backed up why I call it that. Because their consoles are cheaper to make, for example the cpu is Nvidia 2015s Shield CPU, the screen is not AMOLED or top of the class and the games are cheaper to make because of a lower resolution and lower quality textures and other things in order to run on a mobile chip (as stated, by NVIDIA for tablets). They still charge 300 USS for switch and 60 for the games, and I think its a lot. There also don´t discount its games so much. 
Not only Nintendo. Microsoft was greedy when lauched XBOX One and had it consecuences. Sony is greedy with PS classic software and is having them too. So in that case I don´t think it can be called trolling.

Besides that I still think that the thread and exchange of ideas was being killed because of strong moderation and showed by the other people being critic about that.
