They won't do that. They've had the power lead once with the Gamecube and it didn't work out for them. Their philosophy is different thanks to that. They don't do the "sell hardware at a loss, earn it back in software" think ever again.
Dude, I'm right there with you that it would've been awesome if the Switch was a lot more powerful. But it would sell at a loss, instead of a massive profit and still sell super well. From a business standpoint, I can completely understand why they do what they do.

True. I get them wanting to print money. Fuck it, I most likely wouldn't have bought any other game on it than exclusives anyways, so... . xD

On a side-note: I kinda like how Nintendo of America has random Walugia related tweets. They will announce it. They can't NOT have him in Smash at this point.

Waluigi is the unsung hero of the Mario franchise.

And what I figured was that Nintendo just makes their consoles as powerful as they need it to be. If third-party blokes struggle with it, it's their problem.

Pretty much. Nintendo doesn't give a fuck about third party shit. They've been fucking over third parties almost as long as they've been selling games tbh.

The last third-party friendly console system they had was probably the SNES. Everything after that had some bullshit that made it hell to develop for.

Just imagine if Ninty didn't trigger Square and many other SNES juggernauts to the point that they jumped ship to Sony. That might've legit changed the face of (console) gaming.

Sony would be dead. As a gaming company.

The original Playstation was originally intended as an add-on for the SNES. If Nintendo hadn't told Sony to fuck off they wouldn't have been in a position to shoot themselves in the foot with Square as well.

Imagine spending a billion US dollars to be a loser. Could've watched animu and be one for free.

At least they don't do it like Microsoft who outright buy studios like Rare and run them into the fucking ground so hard that you'll be digging for 10k years to find them. 3rd parties didn't want to bother with the Wii's motion shit. MS bought Rare and turned them into a Kinect shovelware developer.
Sony doesn't do that shit either but when their best exclusive is Uncharted 4, a woke game that plays itself, they aren't doing much better. Plus they shit out terrible movies.
I'll take Bing Bing Wahoo over stronk nigger woman storytelling any day of the week.

Come to think about it... where are all the black princesses in the Mario Gaming Universe?

Miamoto doesn't even allow Toads of any colour besides the default in Paper Mario anymore. Fat chance asking him for something like that.
