Stop buying Nintendo games. Vote with your wallet. Send them a message that this isn't how to win over customers.
Nintendo fans are professional slop consumers. These are the same people who complain about Pokémon every year then proceed to buy 2 copies of the newest game.
I've been doing that for years. And I'm trying to make my friends see how these things are bad for them even if they don't pirate.
But then, Nintendo releases a new Pokemon and everyone goes "eh, I know that Nintendo is the worst, and I know they are harming the industry... but I can't skip this pokemon game!".
Nintendo customers suffer from a big case of Stockholm syndrome and nobody can't convince me of the opposite.
The pokemon games aren't the draw they once were. They're kinda shit these days; graphics, mechanics, storytelling, etc.
People don't care and will still buy them anyways. Similar thing has been going down with sports games like madden and nba for years yet people still buy them.
