    Getting excited for the release of a specific game would be less weird. This just comes off as fanboying for a company and it makes my skin crawl. “Woohoo, look at me, I can afford to buy the newest expensive gadget on launch day while decked in Official Nintendo® merch while playing the previous Nintendo® Switch™, aren’t I special and cool”

    I’m a pc gamer though, so idk anything about lining up for a console

    There was that time when a subset of PC gamers was making very cringy memes about “Lord Gaben” but I think that’s less of a thing now

      Yeah, if there was a launch title worth getting excited about I’d understand but I didn’t even know the switch 2 was coming out this week until I started seeing youtube thumbnails about how it just came out

      Maybe if I loved mario kart but racing games were never my favorite genre and I always preferred f zero so I just don’t get the hype
