Nintendo used to be ahead of the curve with the N64, but you're right that they've been trailing behind for a while now. The Switch still uses the Nvidia Tegra X1 CPU/GPU, which was released in 2015.

One of the major accusations was that they asked too much of Madison for a single person to accomplish, and fired her over not meeting their expectations. While this is not great, it's not legally problematic.

It was marketed as $7 (I think), but it was never sold below $15 as far as I could find.

Also, since that price was without any profit margin, merchants only sold them in expensive bundles most of the time (with a case, SD card, etc).

Better marketing. It’s also easier to get a build pipeline for ARM than Xtensa and RISC-V.

Apple always tried to have their mouse fit tiny children‘s hands and adults, which of course means that they’re uncomfortable for both.

Their dedication to small product portfolios forbids them to have two different devices for this.

The whole of Super Mario Bros is smaller than a single screenshot of the game.

Yes, but that's not how it works in practice. Running a government is a huge money-making machine, and so it attracts the worst kind of people.

Of course they are in it for the money, what do you think?

This is almost certainly not intentional. The AI just can’t differentiate between unsafe as in NSFW and unsafe as in manual memory management.

So, pay extra to get the smallest components possible for a desktop PC, and then mount them spread out on a giant wall.
