      Putting it on while doing something is fine

      You don’t need to tell people what to watch

      I don’t understand why people have issues with shows like this, it’s not like ads on annoying news websites, people want to watch them, I’m not watching but I think it’s quite exciting waiting for a trailer you want to see (silksong for example) compared to seeing it in a news article afterwards.

      Screw that—that 30 minute premiere for Kirby Air Riders was pure bliss. If it’s a game I love, I want all the detes I can get.

      This is the same fanbase that dropped $500 for a slightly better Nintendo Switch, there’s no reasoning with them.

        This is a company that will sue you if you even watch this press release incorrectly, but they’re still coming at the bit

        nintendo directs were always advertisements, it’s kinda their goal: to advertise to you upcoming nintendo products

        I guess Iwata and Reggie made them more pleasant to watch, but they were still ads
