And, not that anyone cares, I vow never to buy another game from them- at least at that price.

Retaliatory non consumption.

After the Wii, I sword that I was never going to buy another console just to play Zelda. I eventually got a Switch to play Breath of the Wild and basically nothing else (I owned a total of 4 Switch games). When they sued the shit out of the Yuzu people, I decided it was time to finally live up to the promise I had made. I gave the Switch, which I hadn't touched in years, to a friend to use as a gift for his kids and committed to never giving Nintendo another penny.

I'll reevaluate that stance if they ever make significant changes to their practices.

So sounds like a public library check out.

My ol' good Switch 1 will keep rocking my TV set until it breaks apart. I never asked for a Switch 2 anyway.

I have the Wii U version, and I don't plan to replay it... on any console.

They have literally been doing this with every older game they've ever produced. New system? New larger price to play on the new system.
