Watching Nintendo fumble console launches (sometimes whole generations) is one of the few constants in my life for the last 30 years. Dropping first party support for previous gens within 12 months, nothing compelling on the next gen for 18-24 months and now, egregious pricing for hardware and software. You’d think they’d learn what not to do, especially after doing it a half dozen times.

Anyone remember Devolver Digital? Basically, they had a bad year. That’s going to happen with publishers sometimes. The public investment in them didn’t like that. It’s something that doesn’t jive well with public investors, who judge the company value minute to minute, when game development can take half a decade. So far as I’m concerned, public investment in companies like Nintendo should be seen as fairy money on top, prone to vanishing.
