Yup, lemmy users frequently seem to have this strange idea that lemmy is somehow representative of the Nintendo customer base. I agree that I find Nintendo’s business practices terrible and their last Pokemon mainline title was frankly boring and uninteresting. But the reality is also that Scarlet/Violet was the second-best selling Pokemon game ever.

llikely due the pandemic, where nobody has anything to do at home, so naturally people are going buy pokemon games more than before.

How long until people can stop blaming the pandemic for things?

It’s a Pokémon post. Does that make sense?

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No it doesn't. Because the comment was made in the context of Pokémon if you follow the content thread.

Yes. I suspected as much. It didn’t describe any context of Pokémon… in fact, I don’t see Pokémon mentioned… Pokémon FTW, btw. Oi ha hi. Pikachu!
