PC gaming had tons of shovelware since the beginning and even got both good propietary and libre software games with great quality.

So did the Game Boy, which the NIntendo seal of quality was almost given for free because lots of games were junk even under the GBC era.




Exactly because anyone can do it.


Then explain some "games" for the Game Boy Color where the quality was very subpar.


You said it yourself, Nintendo platform bouncers let too many spoil the party.

Here is the thing, we aren't entitled to anything in life.

Don't like the way consoles work? Don't buy them.

Are you sure about that? I'm entitled to a lot of things if my country's laws are anything to go by, for some reasonable definition of entitlement. I could be entitled to running my own software on a Switch if lawmakers say so. The EU already forced Apple, so what's another platform?


Start a petition to see how far you will go, good luck.
