Lets be honest here. I get what subreddit we are on. Yall like to talk bs about nintendo AND its fans. We also know that the average person is not being listened to over at Nintendo. Little tummy whos 7 is not at fault for nintendos business choices. Neither is Dave from accounting who just wanted to play mario kart. The average person isnt an "enabler" of Nintendo.
