Nintendo shares climbed as much as 6.8% on Tuesday for the third straight day, with Bandai Namco and Konami each up more than 9% as Japanese investors rotated out of AI-cohort names.
Obligatory hating on Nintendo for everything they’ve ever done in a courtroom.
I do have to appreciate their distinct lack of enshittification in some of this. Like they don’t have a “AI or bust” mentality, their non-old games are just regular games mostly, not gatcha/pay to win BS. And a lot of them ship fairly complete. It’s a fucking low bar these days but they’re not like nonstop below the bar which is something.
But really fuck those guys for so many fucking reasons. Subscribe monthly to play a few old games i already own? Fuck right off
