You do realize that the ps5 is made at a loss correct? Unlike the switch.

So? Sony has a stupid business model and Nintendo doesn't, therefore Nintendo bad?

Sorry, but for all of Sonys shitty problems, hardware has never been an issue. My ps3, ps4, and ps5 all run great and have since I bought them. I can stream my ps5 on my ps4 or on a pc screen now.

So you had a bad experience with your Switch that isn't indicative of most people's experiences, therefore Nintendo bad. Ignoring the near 100% failure rate of PS1s and PS2s (those nylon gears just didn't hold up very well.)

Also, my original NES, purchased in '85, would like to say hi. So would my Gamecube, purchased at launch, just to compare devices with moving parts. Unfortunately, my Microsoft and Sony hardware has all had to be replaced. My Dreamcast still works, but it admittedly didn't get a ton of use to reveal wear-and-tear flaws.

Sony hardware has historically been cheap garbage. But at least it's better than Microsoft hardware which is poorly-designed, cheap garbage.

LOL! This is a hot take, you couldn’t even buy a left joycon for years after launch. They later admitted they knew of the issue before launch and…. Did nothing to fix it, no refund, no repair, you just had to pray you got the issue before the 1 year warranty expired.

Your comments probably aren't popular because we despise Sony (I will never buy another PS), and the PS5 is soulless, but you are 100% correct about the joycon drift being a major issue.

Nintendo dropped the ball, knew about it, and for liability reasons had to be sued into offering free repairs - at least within the USA.

(On the bright side, if you're one of the lucky ones to get an early enough model where the Tegra chip has an unpatched kernel access mode...congrats to free games and more importantly, being able to backup your saves, if you so wish.)
