You can still use a PC / smartphone / etc for non-gaming purposes, and where possible, you are allowed to emulate non-Nintendo systems as long as you're using Nintendo hardware. You may only cloud stream a game if either the game can also be played natively on Nintendo hardware, or there is an official way to stream it on Nintendo hardware.

Money is untaxed Canada dollars.

Lol nah. Been a Nintendo fan since I've been gaming, absolutely love the Switch (flaws and all.) That being said, being forced to lose my gaming PC and playing solely on Switch? No thank you. That's like taking someone's Switch and telling them they can only play on a Game and Watch.
Wild ARMs is still the best JRPG series in my opinion and we desperately need a new game in the series!

I probably *could* do it, I don't if I necessarily would do it.

Could I Mod a Wii to get all the retro console games? If so, I could keep myself entertained with that.

The "no games on your phone" part is what would fail me before "no other console" would.

I don't game nearly as much as I used to.

If Nintendo comes out with a system that isn't 3 generations behind with lots of 3rd party support, sure. As it is I don't think so.

I mainly game on Nintendo hardware, but it'd still need to be consideredably more money for me to consider losing on stuff I may want to play elsewhere

That "emulating non Nintendo stuff on Nintendo hardware" clause could help mitigate the issue, admittedly, but still

I mean a modded out Wii could help with any game pre-PS1 era outside some arcade games and PC games. So basically gaming from 1972-1994 would mainly be covered.

Nintendo 64 had plenty of amazing exclusives. Gamecube as well plus major third part support. A lot of PS1 exclusives such as Square games have been ported/remastered on available Nintendo platforms. Hell, eventually the PS2 GTA games made it to Switch.

The Wii/PS3/x360 generation is really when a huge gap would start to form. Also when PC gaming was making tons of strides. Still, the amount of Wii games is insane and is a huge hidden gem console. Wii U had amazing first party games, but overall very limited.

All this and handgeld gaming hasn't even been mentioned. Practically from 1989 to 2008 or so Nintendo dominated and form of handheld gaming so that's a huge catalog. Mobile gaming started its own ecosystem so all that would be gone.

Then up to modern times the Switch has been an amazing factory of some of the best first party exclusives. Plus, it has practically most major retro indie games that have become big. But the disparity between PS4/PS5, XBO/XSX, and modern PX gaming is now just so huge to ignore.

Oh and to top it off making this deal would totally cut off VR gaming and I'm huge into VR.

The only way this could be slightly tempting is if a Switch 2 came out equal with PS5. Had major AAA support like actually having GTAVI. Many 8th and 9th gen ports made it. Oh and it switched to a VR mode with tons of VR ports coming in future.

So yeah, no deal and I'm a HUGE Nintendo fan.

This. I mostly game only on Nintendo stuff now anyway, but I have a decent backlog from several PS eras that $20k wouldnt sway me on giving up.

Also Canadian dollars? lolno. Thats like $15k USD then.

Yes. Anything you can run on Nintendo hardware, even unofficially, is fair game. Streaming on the other hand is only allowed if either it can be done officially, or the game in question could realistically be played natively on Nintendo hardware (not necessarily the same Nintendo hardware you're using at the time).

Sure, if you count shovelware. It shouldnt need to be clarified that we would never be able to play anything new again once they stop making hardware, and so many online services will be shut down so much of what currently exists becomes unplayable.
