And this is right after they deleted 500 movies/TV shows people paid for.

Clearly they didn't think digital is ownership either.

    Corpos: Own nothing, hate it. Keep paying, keep consuming.

    Piracy: Own anything, keep it, smile. Take what you can, give nothing back.

    You should give back though, by seeding

    Piracy is not a moral issue, it’s a service issue, and this just solidifies it

    Yes but discs haven't been a "physical copy" for a long time already.

    Buying a console full of DRMs, online switch-offs and proprietary protocols is the furthest thing you can do from "owning a physical game"

    This is why I haven't bought a switch 2. I was so very excited about the announcement until I noticed that switch 2 would focus on digital.

    Luckily the only game announcements I've seen that I want are the remakes to dragon quest and they are still physical on the switch 1

    Also, it's a plain downgrade from Switch 1 OLED. Inferior screen, abysmal battery life. It's just launch Switch 1 all over again. Except this time Switch OLED, Lite, and improved Switch base exist.

    Nintendo is betting people will buy Switch 2, and then upgrade to a Switch 2 OLED later. So just don't. If you really really want a Switch 2, wait for the OLED model. And ideally for homebrew, but most people don't use it, sadly.

    A reminder to those who hail steam as the savior: you're gonna get bit.
