Where did I say it made me angry that others like Nintendo? I've literally owned every single Nintendo console and have the Smash edition Switch. I'm saying their games are boring and very low effort a lot of the times these days. Zelda is the exception. What other critically and commercial successful first party titles do they have, besides Zelda and Mario? The last few Pokemon games have been the definition of low effort and have bombed critically. Smash was fun but the online was so bad it would have been better off just not even having it. I'm saying Nintendo is a shadow of their former glory and wish they would get their shit together and stop making games exclusively for little kids. They weren't always the children's game developer. I adored the NES/SNES/N64/GameCube. They just are kind of a parody of themselves at this point.
