Coping, seething, and moving the goal post
Told you all Dring’s article was terrible. He even had to go back and rewrite the article to hide the fact that he said Nintendo had a bad December in the US. Reminder that he also recently completely misreported UK numbers to make the switch 2 seem worse than it was. Can we stop considering him as a reliable reporter yet?
Still waiting for doom and gloom for SW2 I was promised by these “experts”.
As much as i love apple pies, i seen youtube videos of Nintendo lies.
Didn’t someone say that switch 2 sold poorly during holidays?
They did and we all knew that was a lie. Those people have Nintendo Derangement Syndrome. I’m fine with valid criticism against the company but to have a hate for them is beyond r*tarted.
I can’t believe I fell for the words of that idiot of Dring…
