Nintendo of America has been converged for some time now, getting worse once Reggie "My body is ready" Fils-Aimé retired (ex: the Nintendo of America twitter post about Biden in Animal Crossing happened after he left). On the other hand, Nintendo of Japan has started yanking their leash in the mean time. Whether that will amount to anything, time will tell.

But overall, Nintendo, at least in more recent years, is mainly shitty for non-woke reasons, including:

• Hyper aggressive (bordering on malicious) copyright enforcement, even in instances where it wasn't truly necessary (ie cracking down on online Smash tournaments knowing in person events were impossible at the time)

• Charging for an online service that is somehow inferior to their previously free iterations (Wii, WiiU, 3DS), as well as the netcode for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate being an infamous example of Nintendo's continued ignoring of major problems

• Setting an ominous precedent with how they handled Super Mario 3D All Stars (fun fact: they sold and got rid of an officially licensed English translation of the original Fire Emblem for Famicom in the exact same time frame)

• The intentionally slow pace at which they are addressing Joycon drift (the Switch Lite has those same faulty Joycons hardwired in, making it that much more likely for the entire system to become part of a landfill in the long run.)

• There are instances where Nintendo would DMCA a fan made game, only to release something just like it a bit later. That is how Super Mario Maker came about, as well as their remake of Metroid 2 (RIP AM2R). Contrast that with Sega, who when put in the same situation, either leave them alone, or go as far as to take them under their umbrella , which is how we got Sonic Mania. Sega does what Nintendon't! /s

All of this is just off the top of my head, and I'm sure I'm still missing quite alot considering how long all of this has been going on.
