Lets be honest, this is abuse, it’s targeted hate speech towards the developer (FYI, Seth didn’t sell his studio).
It’s not a “negative review” nor is it a “comment about the game”.

• Free to sign up
• Strong recent sales, a long life left in 3DS
• Library spanning 3 generations
• Good affordable hardware
• Great software features
• Sustainable ecosystem & eShop features:

  • Nintendo brand association
  • Higher value proposition
  • Not shovelware friendly
  • Not a flooded Over saturated ecosystem
  • QR Codes - a visibility tool
• Path way to Switch
• Launching on a console
