Good to see Twitter's full-throated support for fascism was a step too far, even for Nintendo.
Oh wait, it was money wasn't it?
In a roundabout way, you could argue both were factors.
Twitter’s echo chamber becoming cacophonous with spite and worse means less people visiting the site, and refusal to support the site would be a better look, but that pr move might be easier on the corporate wallet as well.
