I associate Nintendo more with little kids then soycucks
That's the heart of the association right there. A grown ass man that's into children's entertainment has something wrong with him.

There is a difference between fantastical content that CS Lewis was referring to and the infantilizing pandering of Nintendo.
CS Lewis was speaking of literature like Grimms fairy tales, JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings ( though, maybe not specifically. I'm not sure the time table on the quote), or Charles Dickens works. Things that are not immediately beneficial to a man's pursuits but otherwise wholesome.
Ninetendo puts out mind-numbing, easy-to-digest distractions. They are full of colorful lights and pretty pictures and assurances that "You're great! You win!"
