Even the first was genuinely shitty compared to flagship smartphones of the time. Nintendo simply fundamentally fails to understand the environment they’re dealing with these days.
minus-squareNigelFrobisher@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up27·4 days agoA Switch cost half what a flagship mobile phone cost and the Switch 2 has been immensely successful.

Never mind that the actual hardware cost is far below EITHER price tag, at the time. Nintendo fucks their customers harder. They’re almost as bad as old Apple fans, justifying getting fucked in the ass for … clout?! Clown customers. The very definition of “mindless consumers”.
