No. It's not that.

Piracy. Perhaps.

Just a wild guess.

I would give you a cookie but would you prefer a doughnut instead?

Whatever floats your boat, really. But thanks.

Nintendo has the tendency to be rather old-fashioned in their practices. This is a good thing, because they still perform the ancient practices of "releasing games in a finished state" and "not cramming the game with a ton of DLC and microtransactions". This is a bad thing, because they still perform outdated practices like region locking and taking down lets plays with copyright strikes.

Pokemon Sword and Shield had DLC. Expensive DLC.

And there was that Mario Kart Tour thing for mobile devices too. With microtransactions of course.

Nintendo Switch can't run Monster Hunter World, why do even plan on releasing Monster Hunter Rise at Nintendo Switch?

That they replaced Kris with Lyra in Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon SoulSilver Version, and also watered down the Game Corner (making it a pathetic disappointment) and replaced all the Berry Trees with Apricorn Trees. They also didn't make a proper remake of Pokémon Crystal Version. And in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate we got the male protagonist of Persona 3 Portable as a Mii costume and his battle theme "Mass Destruction", but we didn't get the better female protagonist from Persona 3 Portable as a Mii costume or her better battle theme "Wiping All Out".

My complaint is that they keep pushing out underpowered hardware and can't seem to keep up with Microsoft and Sony. My other is that they can't seem to make a normal controller that doesn't really on some strange, unneeded gimmick.

Nintendo schimm.. shmitendo.

There. Got 'em good.

Sorry what I dislike about Nintendo?

Ehm, nothing? Nothing. LOL

The last Nintendo product I owned was the original GBA.

I did play a lot of N64 on PC, but only really ever liked one or two games, even though I tried just about all of them. San Francisco Rush, and Rush 2049 were amazing. And Mario 64, of course.

Edit: I also tried quite a few DS games on PC, but that's a pain, and looks like poo, splitting two screens up on a 1080p screen, with no (only mouse) touch capability, or light sensor, or lid sensor.

Never had a desire to figure out the arcane ways to get the newer consoles to work on PC. Too many options screens, too many questionable sites. When I was younger, I would have figured all that complex stuff out, but at this point I'd rather Nintendo just do it. I'm a patient man.

But I'm not buying a Nintendo console. Nintendo gets my money when they show me they want my PC-gaming money. I don't want their hardware.

Xbox will smash them in the long run

The 3DS was a great system & they abandoned it for something that doesn't actually fit in my pocket...

Have you ever got one of those touch screen monitors they advertised in stores where you pop bubbles?

I guess that's what DS games on PC would be like... But all of what you've mentioned sounds fascinating. Not like I have experience with any of that myself. *cough cough*
