They truly did. I was a lifelong Nintendo enthusiast until the stuff with the 3DS started.
They kept getting more and more user hostile, and sometimes quite literally!
I own a switch and like the system, but still think PS Vita was far superior.
Broken joycons, forcing new purchases of pairs only, so many failed I myself am part of the class action lawsuit against them over it.
Suing and sending 'investigators' after enulation developers.
Stealing fan-patches and translations and selling them on their store.
Reselling games some of us have purchased numerous times, only to find the 'remakes' are just shitty emulated ports. And again they would download fan-fixed roms and use those.
After D2 I am done. They didn't bother to give any way to use M/KB, the multiplayer is virtually non-existent, as is chat (typed, voice is non-existent). No mouse or use of stick-controled aiming such as in twin stick shooters breaks sorceress teleport, Enigma teleport, etc.
I paid $60, which was bad enough for a shitty re-skin of a decades old game that could run on a graphing calculator, but I chose the wrong system to purchase it on.
Nintendo is the definition of user hostile now, to the point of losing lifelong customers.
They and Disney are in the same boat. They had the balls to think their shitty entertainment businesses had been around so long they were too big to fail and didn't need their customers.
Well, maybe they don't need us, but they sure as shit need our money.
- ShamelessC 4y agoHoly shit man, just stop purchasing the stuff. It's not the Nuremberg trials.
- effingwewt 4y agoI have. Either way, how would that make any of the stuff they've done OK? Talk about next-level hand-waving.
- ghostly_s 4y agoNintendo has been offering free repair/replacement of Joy-Cons for quite some time now, and AFAIK they have been sold separately since launch. What are you on about?
- effingwewt 4y agoI stand corrected. I don't know when they started doing either but that's cool,thanks.
- minimaul 4y agoIt's a bit unhelpful to mix in things that third parties (developers/publishers) have done with Nintendo's own behaviour here - the fan patch/translation thing was Square Enix, wasn't it? The quality of the Diablo 2 release is on Activision/Blizzard, not really Nintendo. I agree on the hardware quality side - the joycons and the pro controller d-pad have been big issues for the Switch.
- effingwewt 4y agoYea. I guess I was just on one last night, apologies all around.
