I don’t understand your comment. Are you suggesting I should stay home because everything the Switch 2 has shown you has been disappointing?

Let me try your logic: you should camp out for a Switch 2 because I’m excited!

I get that not everyone is excited for a sequel system that is a massive pile of money. I also get that piracy talk is a lot of commenters’ only interest. I’m excited and enthusiastic. Why not make your own comment chain instead of jumping on one that clearly has a different vibe than you are going for?

Also, can you explain the Switcheroo joke? It’s like the idea of a bait and switch, right? I’m trying to figure out what you felt you were promised that now leaves you feeling like this is a switcheroo.
