That growing frustration ain't doing shit to stop people from rebuying. Even if we get to the point where there's 10 pissed off fans for every 1 buyer, it's pretty much free money for Nintendo.

I hope I'm wrong but I think we're several generations away from that. I think what's more likely is game licensing getting tied to your Nintendo Home account (or whatever it's called, I don't have a Switch) and being accessible on new consoles...for a fee, of course.

Yeah I think PC only happens when potential PC sales eclipse those rebuys and not one second before. Might be several generations away tbh.
