    Just goes to show, game exclusivity on a shitty overpriced portable console is a bad business practice.

    People would love to play Nintendo games on PC. Nintendo is screwing themselves with their arrogance and greed.

        Doing well, even exceptionally well, doesn’t mean that it’s the best possible scenario. Nintendo is leaving billions of dollars on the table due to their cultural obstinance.

      Nintendo’s target audience is the mainstream casual gamer. That market has never heard of Palworld. Nintendo is doing fine they don’t care for the pc gamer crowd, since in Japan casual gamers don’t own a gaming pc. And with current hardware pricing and the weak yen the pc gamer market will barely grow in Japan.
