The biggest issue is lack of discovery tools/filters. Same shit exists on Steam, but I never see that for the most part.

However if I go into eShop sales, it’s free for all. There are no recommendations, ability to filter out tags, discord queues and so on. It’s aggravating as hell, especially considering how slow the whole thing is.

yeah their online design has always been a little clumsy, lets see if they improve it with next generation

Their on-Switch eShop is even worse, but yeah, both suck.

How many years Nintendo Switch need to be on market to you get some clues? Mortal Kombat 1 at least for you ring a bell?

And is not like you touch a nerve, low bait posts have those kinda of effect kid. Maybe I can buy you a Nintendo Switch.

gotcha

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

This is one of Nintendo’s biggest problems imo. Sony got this one right.

Sony in an interview said they would be doubling down on inappropriate content and also games that didn’t meet their quality standards.

Who knew Sony would be the one to bring back the Nintendo Seal of Quality.

 

[K' Dash]

Make sense. Sony want to protect their audience from being exposed to such contents.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Decades later dude’s got a Switch now.

 

[Spukc]

This pinball sexy game
Is the tits

 

[YCoCg]

LOL "Erotic", it's HENTAI and it's trash!

But you have a right to play trash if you are so inclined.

Is it though?

This evidence presented for the prosecution isn't convincing. Case thrown out.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Nintendo got the kiddy label back before ratings for games were created, and Nintendo forced developers to switch. Now that there are ratings, Sony's playing the nanny, and now it just seems silly.

I find it funny how that situation is basically reversed now

 

[Saber]

i don't pay attention to that console right now although i do have 2 switches boxed up in the closet, i was under the impression they were mainly for kids, sorry i touched a nerve.

Alot of adult games launched on Switch, that has being that way since ages. Where are you all this time that you didn't notice that?

 

[ArtHands]

There was a change because Nintendo's sales strategies with the Wii U and 3DS weren't working out for them,they were losing their audience

They realized most of their audience are adults now unlike the 90s /early 2000s and they simply allowed all third party companies to publish their stuff unchecked thats why there are so many Otome games on Switch now,why they publish Bayonetta and let tons of violent M rated content.

Most of these games on the eshop aren't actual porn they are standard visual novel stuff that appeals to a niche audience

It doesn't really damage their image,or the quality or their games heck they are about to release a first party visual novel about a serial killer wearing a paper bag who murders high school students

Nintendo hasn't cared about censorship in a long time, they help the ESRB to allow more content its just that their main brands appeal to the whole family and target audience was casual gamers,they changed focus to core gamers with the Switch

Some people here are still stuck in the 90s

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

That's why I try to buy visual novels on switch.

 

[Pimpbaa]

After Stellar Blade this makes no sense.

 

[Power Pro]

After Stellar Blade this makes no sense.

Because Sony has the final say, and they like to push their weight around with third parties it seems. "Rules for thee, not for me" mentality.

 

[Red Crayon Aristocrat]

EROTISICM, now on Nintendo!

 

[darth.shrimp]

Why is actual sex a more tedious mini-game than those in erotica games?

Asking for a friend, I wouldn’t know

I'm the friend, thanks for asking.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Make sense. Sony want to protect their audience from being exposed to such contents.

Yet there’s Concord.

 

[CS Lurker]

Nintendo knows very well its japanese customers

So happy I play with my Wii at night with my 64 thirsty Gameboys and then Switch it up with U .

I come to believe this is by design. They don't want you to find exactly what you're looking for; it's like those spare parts boxes in a supermarket where you have to dig through everything. You're supposed to browse through a ton of games and start with the impulse purchases.

Personally, I stopped browsing real quick and rather look for specific titles. On Steam however I really like to browse by those tags.

That would have been fine… if they didn’t have a lot more shit that nobody sane would buy vs actual games you may want to splurge on.

If I am browsing through their sales and I have to go through giant piles of crap VNs or asset flips, I just give up and don’t get anything.

On Steam side since crap is mostly filtered I have gotten plenty of games at random. Plus the return system and robust review implementation help for impulse buys.

Decades later dude’s got a Switch now.

Always wondered how is he holding the joystick in the air standing up like that? Is he using his boner to support that thing? Hmm.

Ask girlfriend to stand half-naked in front of you -> Aquire boner -> Use boner to play video games

That's a misconception. The majority of Switch users are actually adults.

[Shadowstar39]

kind of creepy considering switch is aimed at kids?

A ton of parents and adults play switch too. Its for everyone. Its the easiset console to play games when are limited on time.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Hey have you tried the new ZeldAAHHH

 

[yurinka]

kind of creepy considering switch is aimed at kids?

It's aimed to 25-45 years old Nintendo fans, who in some cases have kids.

 

[poppabk]

Steam is likely the worst. Reviewing new games coming out and at least half are porn games. I do not mind some amount of adult content, but when you view the game page it is always hardcore porn with exaggerated genitals. It will only get worse.

You have to actively opt-on to seeing porn games, or so someone told me.

 

[_Ex_]

Nintendo is more ecchi tolerant than Sony these days, been that way for years.

But the only way to play actual AO (real porn) games is on PC. You're not getting that on Switch.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

LOL "Erotic", it's HENTAI and it's trash!

But you have a right to play trash if you are so inclined.

It’s called eroge, and it’s art!

 

[StereoVsn]

There are settings you would need to activate/deactivate (based on your own setup) to see that shit. If people are seeing Porn games at that rate... well, its what they look at.

 

[Sakura]

Whoever wrote that article doesn't know what they are talking about. Eroge refers to games rated 18+ with actual sex scenes etc. They do not exist on console. When they want to bring an eroge to console, they remove all of that adult only content, so it is not an eroge any more.
Furthermore, many of the games shown in that Twitter image are also available on PlayStation.
