    Reality: The Switch 2 has one of the strongest console launches, despite increased prices. Their games continue to hold more value than others, with used games selling for near, or even above, their original sale price. Their consoles and games remain the #1 pick for families with kids.

    Their pricing is pricing out many families, and I don’t like that. I’ve remained firm in my stance that I’m not going to buy this console. It doesn’t matter if everyone else around me buys it, I’m simply not going to do it. It’s too expensive, same with the games, and I simply don’t want to continue supporting Nintendo.

    Gabe said piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem, but Nintendo has now made it both lol

    I’m sad that more people aren’t voting with their wallets but it is what it is, I can at least do my part in refusing to support them.

      They are. They’re saying they’re ok with it. Every purchase is a vote with your wallet.
