Company says that if you can't afford their expensive product, you should buy one of their cheaper ones. Well yeah... Did anyone expect something else here? They aren't going to give you a special deal, nor are they going to advise you to buy elsewhere. This is so pointless.

They aren’t going to give you a special deal

The Switch 2 and Mario Kart World bundle is a good deal.
If you’re working on your credit score and it’s time to open a new line of credit, get a credit card with a $200 welcome reward that gives you $200 back if you spend $500 in the first three months. Perfect for the Switch 2 with other items for launch. Just sayin’.

And here I just read another post here about how gaming journalists are surprised their industry is dying

Don't worry. They'll have a return to form soon enough.

Yeah, Microsoft had a similar stance around the Xbox One timeframe! It worked out great for them.

Just don't talk about it, Nintendo, that's a better PR strategy.

"Cant afford a Switch 2? Just don't eat and save up until you can!"

Well I'm making myself a deal, starting today, no more gas station trips for soda. If I can make it the month and start riding my bike again, I'm getting a steam deck.

And will emulate the fuck out of switch games. Kiddo already has a hacked switch.
