    It’s the internet hate machine. Everyone has hobbies, and some people’s hobby is to hate things. All kinds of things. Celebrities, sitcoms, children’s movies, but especially video games.

    It doesn’t matter what you put into the internet hate machine; the only thing that comes out the other end is hatred. It’s not fact-based or even experience-based. It’s just pure negativity, perpetuated through shitty memes and circle jerk forum comments.

    The claim in this meme isn’t even true. It was debunked days ago. Doesn’t matter. It’ll keep getting repeated by people on the internet who copied it from other people on the internet. The definition of a circle jerk.

    The internet hate machine has killed lots of good media. It’s a shame to see Nintendo get caught up in it. I hope it doesn’t stick.
