Im also lifetime nintendo fan (since snes), so its easy to be the hater when we know how good they can be. Kinda fucked up that desperation is the biggest source of innovation and good consumer practices.
You seem logical, but I wouldnt blame you if you had a switch 2 sitting <10ft from you(social pressure etc). If people dont stop feeding them while theyre at their worst nothing is going to change. until Switch2 is hacked Im not getting one. Im good here with ryujinx and modded 3ds.
I am also hoping and waiting for a modchip or exploit. I'm curious to see what the hardware can actually do when its removed from the chains of big N. I used to have an NSO online subscription near the start of the program but I havent had it since around when they added the expansion pass. I agree with you that Nintendo needs another kick in the pants from consumers so they start acting right. Bring them back to their Wii U days, or Sony's early PS3 days.
Hell Yeah, genuinely felt like everyone around me caved the boycott within a week. Nice to see the few still holding out.
