    I will never ever fucking purchase a console or game of that shit company. I will always pirate and emulate.

    People wouldn’t pirate so much if their prices were not so high and their console itself not so trash. If they made a decent product and decent prices, many would’ve purchased it.

    But €70 for Mario Kart that’s approximately 8 years old and on an outdated console? No thanks. Not to mention them suing people and such.

    Gosh, I hate that company.

      It’s actually 10 years old when taking the original Wii U version of Mario Kart 8 into account.

      I mean, the switch is an excellent console. The only problem imo is the weak wireless strength of the joycons. That’s the only issue I’ve had since I got mine in like 2019.

      I’d still feel better owning a steam deck though

        It changed gaming. The steam deck probably doesn’t happen without the switch. It clearly demonstrated the market for a handheld that manages large scale 3D games with complex mechanics.

        But the joycons suck at more than connectivity. Straight out of the box those joysticks are fucking terrible, and they degrade hard and fast.

          Ya I guess I have luck. I have 4 sets and no issues in the 3-5 years I’ve had them

            I’m not just talking about the drift. The actual intended product is ludicrously imprecise out of the box.

                I honestly don’t know how. Any non Nintendo 3D game it’s instantly super obvious. And any game at all it’s obvious if you just try to navigate a menu with it.

                They make the $10 Chinese junk alternates look amazing by comparison.

      I have a switch but its a launch model so its modded. Totk runs like crap, and my friend with a legit copy basically said “same” when I asked about it.

      On yuzu I have it running at 1440p60hz, could probably bump it to 120 and having a grand ole time

      I mean, their console is pretty good, and sparked the innovation of a completely new console type (with the Steam Deck and a few others following suit)

      It’s their prices, and more-so their business practices, that gets people to pirate. Hell, they’ll pirate the great games on their hardware, but they’ll pirate!
