Ugh. I will never buy another Nintendo thing if I can avoid it, but I'd be lying if I said this game didn't really test my willpower.

    Buy it second hand! Or buy it if they really nail it and don’t make it a game key card

    I'm pretty sure Nintendo hasn't published a single key card game.

    Yep. I don't follow Pokémon so I had to double check. There's usually some weaselly stuff going on with Pokémon as it's technically The Pokémon Company and Gamefreaks doing the heavy lifting... but Nintendo did indeed publish Pokopia outside of Japan. No weaseling out of this one.

    Pokémon games while published by Nintendo are pretty much their own things. Even the polish and quality are not always up to the mark of other Nintendo games, but there is no denying that they are still part of Nintendo.

    I'd have to really think about it, to be honest. I'm sure buying used sidesteps a lot of the ethics there, but I also have been feeling less console-y lately.

    I may just wait a bit and see if other handhelds figure out a solution. Yarr and all that or whatever.

    Buy a steam deck, emulate the n64 version. Win win.

    I was actually looking into that. I might do that if there's a bit more beefy Steam deck coming over the next year or so. Or maybe I'll grab one of those Lenovo handhelds and throw SteamOS on it. I really wanna try some of these Switch 2 titles, though, so I think I'm gonna have to do my research and learn all the old pirate places again so I can do the ROM thing when the Switch 2 emulation gets figured out.

    Switch 2 emulation is a long ways away. Its dirt simple on steam deck, just install emudeck, there's a guide, then download your Roms and dump them in their corresponding folders. And its easy to emulate the n64 version. Deck still has my vote over the competition due to support, repair ability, and hardware overall. Even if it is a few years old at this point.
