I Miss the Old Nintendo

I've got a confession to make. I don't really like the Nintendo Switch, and I've been deep in thought trying to figure out why that is. Nintendo is my favorite video game publisher, hardware manufacturer, and developer, so at first I believed I may be holding them to an unfair standard. However; after immersing myself within the Nintendo ecosystem between their games, features, and even marketing, I began to realize why I feel this way. The truth is, I believe the Wii U was a much more valuable system than what the Switch has become, and after re-experiencing the Wii U as it once was, I'm even more frustrated with the steps Nintendo has taken away from their core essence in regards to the Switch. With this video, I want to explain why that is.

Here's why I miss the old Nintendo.
