Nintendo Uncle Syndrome

Nintendo Uncle Syndrome is another version of a know-it-all. In this case, generally regarding Nintendo news and otherwise and the attempt at seeming legit by using an 'uncle' to stand in as proof. The uncle who 'works at Nintendo.'

Oftentimes it is just someone who always wants to be right, needs you to 'just trust them man' or otherwise just enjoys lies for the sake of it.
"Ralph always seems to think we believe him when he tells us what Nintendo will do next but he just suffers from Nintendo Uncle Syndrome."

Nintendo Switch 2

An overpriced piece of shit console that you won't even own when you actually buy it when it launches.
Guy 1: Have you heard about the Nintendo Switch 2? Nintendo updated their user "agreements" and it says that they will apparently brick said console when you mod it once it releases afterwards.
Guy 2: I have, and it's extremely overpriced. 630$ CAD for it and 100$ to 110$ CAD for physical games that aren't actually installed on the cartridge itself? Come on, Shitendo!

Nintendo Derangement Syndrome (NDS) is a term to describe a condition where individuals lose all sense of objectivity and rationality when discussing Nintendo specifically those who obsessively hate the company. This often leads to exaggeration, misinformation, double standards, and bizarre emotional reactions whenever Nintendo is even mentioned. It's much more prevalent ever since the Switch 2 Launch.

You're allowed to dislike & criticize Nintendo. NDS kicks in when that dislike tums into obsession. misinformation, or irrational rage especially when you start acting like people enjoying a game is a personal attack on you.

Symptoms of Nintendo Derangement Syndrome:
• Compulsive Lying about Nintendo sales, hardware specs, or game quality
• Goalpost Shifting when proven wrong
• Downplaying Critical or Commercial Success
• Calling Fans Cultists while foaming at the mouth about a 40-second Nintendo Direct trailer
• Using Piracy or Emulation as a Moral Crusade
FritangaPlays clearly has Nintendo Derangement Syndrome if he dedicated 3 months of uploads to shit on Nintendo and the Switch 2.
