Exactly. This is why I'm not going anywhere near Nintendo anymore, even when they do sales they are very slight on first party and sales on third party happen all at once at specific times, the same games end up on the list which creates a choice paralysis. With Sony the sales are varied, they are very often and very deep even on first party games and being a member has sales on stuff constantly, there are no periods at all where there won't be some sort of sale on that someone can take advantage of.
I'll give Nintendo one thing, the discount system with the membership, while it needs to be a bit more generous, it is very smart and rewards people who are deep in the ecosystem but on the other hand it's absolutely useless for people buying 2 or 3 games a year on the platform.
