Nintendo is basically like Apple at this point, the brand is enough to convince people to spend more than they would for the competition, regardless of quality.
People spend more on Apple/Nintendo because of quality. Windows is ten years gone to enshittification. The ps5/xbox have ads on their home screen and are one bad GTA away from a full industry crash
Fully agree. I disabled the joycon motion controls on Zelda to be able to play it. I was not going to give Nintendo more money for another faulty replacement.
It is part of the reason I will not buy a switch 2. They evaporated the trust I had in them chasing profits by not acknowledging a very known problem.
It’s clear that it is lawyers and bean counters steering the company. The only thing they still have going for them is they delay games until they are acceptable, once that boat has sailed, you know it will be all downhill going forward.
No. They buy Apple & Nintendo because of brand loyalty and their social significance.
Have you not seen how deranged they get about those companies products? Nintendo fans lose their minds if someone dare criticize a Mario, Metroid, and especially Zelda games.
Apple fanatics think every new product is a revolution even though some other company or organization has usually already beat them to the punch.
Further, Windows, PS5, & Xbox are are not their only competition. And even then, they are enshitiffied now but that doesn’t explain Nintendo and Apple fans behavior before those competitors became this way.

Perhaps we had very different experiences with the JoyCon…
Joking aside, I agree. I used to buy Nintendo for that reason. Then came JoyCon drift and out of control Nintendo lawyers.

You’re overreacting to other people’s social media overreactions. I’m talking about the actual products they sell.
