The fuck are you talking about? Nintendo is about the only software company
Have to specify software because everyone knows the Switch is starting to struggle to keep up and never getting it's stick drift fixed.
out there that consistently releases complete, functional products
Pokemon Scarlet/Violet ring a bell?
that don't require a bunch of microtransactions
Amiibos exist.
DLC,
Hey, remember when they removed a bunch of Pokemon from Sword and Shield for "balance" reasons then required you to buy the DLC if you wanted to catch them yourself? No reason.
or day-0 patches.
Right, unless it's the number one franchise that prints more money than God in which case "who cares if the game runs like shit, we need to get these trading cards on the shelves by the end of the month!"
God, Nintoddlers will justify any shitty decision Nintendo does because "Nintendo are different" like they didn't sell 3 fucking ROMs dumped on a single cartridge.
Pokémon is not made by Nintendo. Game Freak is a shit company and has outsourced their design team to the US and developers else where.
Nintendo is greedy but their products are loads better than all of the other AAA companies combined (which just means their games run at launch.) Now, they nickel and dime to fuck out of people with their shitty paid online service. But fuck a $70 game. I’m fine paying for 35$ games and playing them on a Steam Deck.
Well, Pokemon is owned by The Pokemon Company which is a joint venture of Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures. So, yes, Nintendo are responsible for the quality of a series they partly own and release on their system.

"My new boyfriend isn't as bad as the last one. My new boyfriend only punches me in the gut instead of across the face!" Again, they did a ROM dump of 3 games over a decade old and sold it (for a limited time, even digitally [Mmmm, take it that FOMO]) for full price. Compare that to the Spyro and Crash remasters that, while they have their issues, at least put effort into the release while also selling for less than the standard AAA price.
This made me physically cringe to a point where it made me reflect on how rarely my face muscles actually do that. At some point there is more dignity in coming even in a debate with what you got wrong.

Get an argument or fuck off, Nintendrone.
Says the person who's apparently obsessed with Pokemon and buying plastic figurines.
I literally had to
googleBrave search what those were.Other than that, both you and I are just trashing GameFreak as developers, which they deserve
