Or overcompensation since they acted on emulators and found out there's more to this? Someone's started another useless crusade.

The emulator is more likely that the Switch 2 was supposed to be released this year and ended up getting pushed to next year. This means they have to support the Switch fully for another year and it's a harder sell when it's easy for customers to make a choice between:

  • A Switch and 3ish games

Or

  • A Steam Deck that can play all the Switch games for free

When these are both the same price. The fact that instructions were easy to find and follow didn't help.

Solution is simple. Sell their fucking games on Steam.

I fear they're not going to stop here either. Soon we'll read news about Minecraft mods and other fan content as well. Backup everything.
