Everyone acknowledges that EA is evil, but Nintendo manages to get away with a lot of shit.
Do they? My YouTube feed was filled with videos attacking their copyright enforcement in 2020.
I must not be up to speed with what the gamers like and hate these days, but I thought Nintendo has a pretty diehard fandom they can coast off of. Putting the problems of capitalistic excess more on the content creators than on most average people buying the game (like companies that are crazy about microtransactions, gambling mechanics, and putting things that should be in the base game in DLCs) makes it easier to prevent people from fleeing the walled DRM garden.
This is true, but even reactionaries mock these people.
