This line of thinking is why we are being price gouged to begin with.

At this point in the world I just want to reward one of the few companies that has yet to screw me over. Everything I've ever bought from Nintendo still works to this day, and I'm generally expecting it to work forever. No one else is making products like that, it's all short-term shareholder profits-- who cares about the customer? If you want to pay what garbage is priced at, you'll get garbage in the end.

Imagine simping for a soulless corporation who doesn't give of fuck if you exist. How is anything nintendo doing consumer friendly? You're definitely on that copium, champ.

I'm just speaking from personal experience, friend. I understand someone will probably have a list of like 10 links of counterexamples handy but I can say with fair confidence they probably haven't affected me. Hell, my original joycons actually still work, though I did buy my Switch a couple years after release. And I'm not simping for anything, I will 100% change my stance the day Nintendo starts screwing me over 🤷‍♂️
