    I understood your point because we’re on the same side and I took a generous interpretation of what you said. Now that I’ve taken a really critical look I have no fucking idea what you were trying to say because the numbers make no sense.

    If I correct your 500 and 4 years, your statement becomes “Nintendo sold their consoles at industry pricie for the average console lifecycle”. Oh the horror, Nintendo does what every other console seller does. And the part about selling a reskinned game at full price every 2 years? If I’m being generous I’d say you’re talking about BOTW and TOTK. But that’s not 2 years and it’s not a reskin and your argument implies multiple games but I can barely come up with one.

    Your entire comment could’ve been only the second part and it would’ve been just as informative as what you actually wrote. That’s how worthless your fucked up numbers have made the point.

      No, Nintendo historically produces under powered consoles and overcharges for them so they can make a profit on every console from day 1. That is not what the other console makers do.

      And the part about selling a reskinned game at full price every 2 years? If I’m being generous I’d say you’re talking about BOTW and TOTK. But that’s not 2 years and it’s not a reskin and your argument implies multiple games but I can barely come up with one.

      Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Mario Party, reselling you literally your old games on virtual console etc etc etc
