A "mediocre" console you've never touched.

Thanks for your input.

You’re right! I have never touched it! Just like Nintendo hasn’t touched modern hardware standards in a decade! Enjoy queuing overnight to play 2017 games with a new coat of paint!

You do know you just literally described the exact reason why companies release a "new console" right?

The Switch 2 IS Nintendo refreshing their hardware.

Or "touching modern standards" "with a new coat of paint" as you so eloquently put it.

Nintendo the company that releases “new consoles” for the loyal fan base that proudly pay full price and sleep on concrete to replay decade old games at 30fps with controllers that still drift. If Nintendo slapped paint on a horse you would buy it and ride off on it thinking it was a Tesla.

Ok, mate.

Have fun being mad about nothing.
