      Are there even any worthwhile games on it? I mean other than Nostalgiabait Racer #328.

        Probably not, but I have kids and even though they’re very understanding I’d still like to provide if alternatives allow.

  Possibly the worst video game company.

  microsoft aids israel’s genocide and ubisoft management protected serial sexual abusers…

    Also Blizzard and Activision protected sexual harassers.

    I can only assume that people who think Nintendo are somehow worse than the likes of Sony and Microsoft have never looked at a single thing those companies have done that isn’t directly related to video games

      i think it’s a combination of two things:

      1. these people had an emotional attachment to nintendo and it’s games growing up, or knew someone who did, so thought very highly of it. when faced with the reality that nintendo is just like any other corporation, aka they only care about their profits and nothing else and will act accordingly, the fall from heaven was brutal.
      2. the main targets of nintendo’s shittiness are its own customers and fans. microsoft may be helping mass murder of people in Palestine, ubisoft is protecting the sexual abuse of their employees by management, rockstar is doing union busting… but gamers are none of these people. gamers are “consumers”, and highly lacking in empathy. so, in their eyes, nothing is worse than being “anti-consumer”. like, ask any gamer if they like ubisoft and, if not, why. they won’t talk about the sexual abuse, or crunch… they’ll talk about bad overpriced games and microtransactions.

        Let’s hope it encourages a few people to think a bit more critically about other companies too, even if some others don’t get beyond “this directly affects me”

    Tough competition. Between strictly video game companies though, it’s a hard choice

  Stop playing triple A games all together. They are all shitty companies who mistreat their employees.

  • luthis@lemmy.nz ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Well that’s pretty easy to do. Most games I play are indy games or from smaller studios. They are objectively better anyway.
