Comment on Switch 2 demand appears to be flagging as Nintendo reportedly lowers production
Skv@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoKids only care about Pokemon, casuals only touch Mario Party like once a month when family is over. So making a Pokemon Access Machine underspec’ed and overpriced is actually THE move from profit perspective.

Which is why I maintain my order of least to most consumer friendly gaming big three is:
Nintendo < Sony < Microsoft
For all its flaws, Microsoft is the leash anti-consumer, because they don’t have exclusives anymore.

M$ was also THE first to charge for multiplayer…even on PC once Xbox era began.

Yeah, but they actually provided a real service in exchange for that subscription.
Meanwhile Sony pays studios to NOT develop games for other platforms, which is HORRENDOUSLY anti-consumer, and Nintendo I dont even have to talk about.
Microsoft isnt the consumers best friend, but out of the big three they are the least bad.
