minus-squareEnsignWashout@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up14·edit-22 months agoI bought a shit ton of games from Nintendo until their legal department went rabid. Untouchable companies do fall, when they manage to alienate diehard fans, such as myself.

minus-squarebandanawearingbanana@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·2 months agoPeople keep claiming this, yet I’ve never seen numbers to back this up. I’m pretty sure the core Pokemon fans are Millenials and older Gen Z’s, not kids.
minus-squareEnsignWashout@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 months agoI mean, I played Pokemon with my kids. So maybe both? Now we play Cassette Beasts - and soon Palworld - together.

minus-squareSt.Elsewhere@threads.net@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoParticularly because the author is a bigot. Can’t even grow up enough to discard a mediocre series- one that is actively repressing people irl.
minus-squareEnsignWashout@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up6·edit-22 months agoMy boycott pretty naturally applied to my kids. We were day one buyers for multiple copies of the last Zelda game, and the last couple Pokemon before Nintendo legal went foul. Now no one in my family has a Switch 2, and my kids are begging me to help them spend their allowance on Palworld.
