Alright everybody, let’s make the Switch 2 the next WiiU.
No purchases, no recommendations to relatives. If anyone you know asks if you think they should get one for their kids for Christmas: nah it’s basically just the switch but WAY more expensive.

Sony is customer-hostile shit too, though. I’ve been boycotting them for literally decades now.

But that one was kinda idiotic and the most toxic people on this planet where in favor of it. So guess that fail was predictable.

I remember Modern Warfare 2 boycott of 2009. That was one of the biggest shit shows you could imagine.
