    just buy used as that actually hurts them more than piracy does as it's an actual lost sale.

    With the MIG Switch you risk getting a ban. People can copy and return or sell on a Switch game. Amazon usually take back Switch games and resell. If you buy a used game that has been copied, you risk a ban by going online.

    This is one of the reasons why I don't like buying used, among other things. Regardless, I'll probably be boycotting Nintendo, or not buying their stuff for a long time. Emulation preserves gaming.

    The N in Nintendo is napalm, which rhymes with H-bomb.




    The Longshoremen are on indefinite strike, no Nintendo going to be imported and no fucking Christmas this year.

    Fallout 4 is a documentary, happened on Halloween.

    Nintendo is kaput like the US with no supply chain importing their shit, there's still time to register for a fallout shelter before Halloween. Nintendo is getting what it deserves and so are all the other assholes of Earth.

    No need to boycott, there will be no Nintendo to boycott. As for me on a personal level, the only thing worse than global thermonuclear war is surviving one then dying in the end anyway. We're immortal in the first place, this universe has litigous assholes in it and there are infinite number to exist in with no litigous assholes working for Nintendo. There are infinite Nintendos that don't suck so hard the universe is going to implode in the multiverse.

    I'm a huge fan of Nintendo in every universe save this one's litigous Nintendo hell and other endless hells.

    just venting here. I am beyond fucking fed up with scalpers and the tards that buy from them that are driving up prices. I am also sick of seeing a billion fucking chinese sellers all selling the same fucking low quality overpriced shit on ebay and amazon. speaking of the two biggest monopolies I'm tired of not seeing any (good)competition for either.
    speaking of ebay I don't like that I can look at 1 single item only to come back to the main site later to find a dozen or more similar items being recommended most of which are cheap chinese garbage. end rant.

    serious question here is there an alternative to ebay that isn't just another shitty auction site? or an alternative to amazon(not aliexpress)?

    If you mean for Chinese shit there is none, Longshoremen are on indefinite strike. If the scalpers are bad the gougers are worse when there's nobody else with any inventory.

    no I was wanting more "name" brand stuff but I guess it doesn't matter since 90% of our goods are made in china.
    a strike huh? so employees want more money and less work and the rich fucks at the top don't want to pay?

    Yes but they want no more automation so they have work to do and a 77% pay rise which the companies selling the automation are opposing and their companies don't want to pay more and profit less. In the end it's money not being everything only 99.9% of it.

    The world's so fucked up nobody wants to have babies and it's causing a rapidly plumetting population decline because the replacement rate to keep it stable is 2 babies per woman and each woman has to have 3 to keep it growing but very few willing to do that with everything going to shit in the world. What we need is to convince stupid people to fuck with "You're not a fuck, you're a fucking fucker." words of affirmation persuasion.
    Framing actions as opportunities to claim desired identities will make people more likely to do them.

    I see. well what seems to work best is just to tell people not to do it. as we've seen the more you tell people not to do something the more likely they'll do it.

    It's double-reverse psychology to give them the most persuasive message to fuck by shifting it into their identity being a fucking fucker which they disagree with and fucking fuck.
