It was phenomenally bad marketing, at least how I recall it. As a huge Nintendo fan who loved his GameCube and Wii and didn't really care that it was just my 'nintendo machine', because I had an Xbox and a pc alongside it. So

Everyone I know already knows this, because ChatGPT makes such obvious mistakes in between brilliant takes. Hell, my grandmother knows that this 'ai' thing does something called 'hallucinate' because it was on the news a
