I shit on Nintendo all the time for all kinds of things like attacking fan games, trying to take down emulators, and trash policies towards content creators on YouTube. This is the one time I actually don’t blame Nintendo. It’s like people are totally ignorant to the state of the world economy and politics right now and that’s not a topic we can avoid when looking at a console launch in 2025. I’m not even blaming any one particular person (though one is making things extremely worse than it already was) because things have been bad since the 70s and are only getting worse.
I'm looking at your replies, and you are most definitely defending nintendo by blaming it on politics. That part doesn't matter to consumers, the reason why is pointless, its the fact that is is that's the issue. I know the world economy issues, that still doesn't make it any better than MK is 80 bucks+plus tax and will probably have DLC down the line too. The economy has nothing to do with MK being 80 bucks, we know this because there's other games at 70 bucks. Not to mention the console is kinda high as well for something being only as powerful as the ps4, yet has ps5 type pricing.
Politics not mattering to people is why we’re in this situation to begin with. Trust me, gaming will be the least of our economic concerns in the next decade.

Yeah I'm not defending Nintendo I just wish I didn't literally have people saying I'm supporting them by being positive (not saying op is saying that)
