Yes, sometimes I do it. Not often but occasionally.

Never found any person doing that. How they react? :o

My mother always says, "Now you can't forget to congratulate me anymore." I think some people find it amusing.

What happened to the switch 2 thread you made saying how it was already doomed? You know, the one you posted... yesterday?

I had it removed, he was a bit too negative. And I didn't want to cause any stress with it.

For me, you are doing correctly staying with Switch 1.
I'm not the least bit excited about Switch 2.

And the same for PS5.

If Nintendo releases a Switch 2 Lite, I'm in.

I got a switch 2 late last year just because i already knew there was a price increase coming soon. I have barely used it. I think it's great but my 90% play time goes to my PC. I have more than 40 switch 1 games, i have finished less than 15. I already have 5 switch games and havent played much. Still, i don't regret buying it and i know i will play most of those games.

Well, the price increase is painful. But it was also somehow clear that it would come. Well, I'm curious to see how it will continue.

I bought a Nintendo Switch in anticipation of Metroid Prime 4.

Metroid Prime 4 ended up being mediocre.

Reason at last.

I rather buy me another Ps3 or Xbox360 than buying a Dusk Collector 5 and a Key Card Switch 2.

Supporting greedy behavior of Companies by giving them your Money only enables them to make even shittier decision.

support greed and boy I wonder why greedy shit keeps increasing.

Its like buying drugs from a dealer and wondering why he keeps selling drugs or worse is even expanding on his drug business.,

Nintendo Switch 1 was the last good Nintendo Console period.
