I think the reddit/lemmysphere is really underestimating just how many Nintendo fans are casual gamers who don't see the PS5, Xbox, or Steam deck as viable competitors. They want to play Animal Crossing, Zelda, and Mario Kart.

That's the thing. I can hold off buying the Switch now, because there's nothing that's a must play being released this year. But when the next Zelda or two come out... Well. It's not like other franchises that might release as a console exclusive and make it to PC/whatever a year or two later. Nintendo games stay on Nintendo.

I mean... They release on PC eventually... *cough🏴‍☠️*

[–] ladel@feddit.uk 2 points 3 months ago

Well, yes, but then I'd have to buy a new PC. And I'm assuming it would have to be pretty good. Still an option if you've got the hardware, though.
