      I got a Wii for Christmas years ago. Never used it much. The last Nintendo console I bought was a game cube. You can easily live without Nintendo. They’re definitely decent games. Just not for that price.

    Yeah, no. It is not the only place to play Mario. There’s emulation and Piracy. I’m quite certain skilled people will try to hack the Switch 2 and sooner or later there will be a Switch 2 emulation (although might take a while). €80-90 euro for one single game is nuts.

    The only reason I would purchase a Switch 2 is when it is capable of being hacked.

      Your friendly reminder that there were less than 1/10th of the people buying video games back then than there are now.

      Also, Half-Life didn’t have a BattlePass, Time Savers, and other microtransactions.
