"If you think the Super Nintendo is vintage, we have bad news."
Glorious.
Digital.
Future.
God.
Dammit.
Fuck.
Yeah, this is ancient news by Internet standards at this point, I guess. Still, it's just a reminder that the glorious digital future is neither glorious nor the future.
This doesn't affect me directly, because I never had either a 3DS (released in 2011) or a Wii U (released in 2012), and at this point I never will. However, this does make my interest in possibly owning any other current or future Nintendo consoles at some point, such as the Switch, continue to greatly wane, because the Switch (released in 2017) itself will become similarly "vintage" by these standards in probably less than a decade, too.
