From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

I've noticed in a lot of Reddit threads the outright hostility towards Nintendo games and Nintendo fans in general gaming subreddits.

I really hope this isn't the case here.

Every place is the wrong place to ask this question.

Putting a label or asking a community to reveal their manifesto is not a good look or how conversations should be started.

The correct thing to do is participate in communities you seem to like and if you find out that you don't agree with that community on one or more fronts, then by all means, please create a new instance and/or community on your own and run it according to your preferences. This is the intended purpose of the fediverse: If you don't like it, do it better by yourself.

I wish to hear all opinions in here by all kinds of people.

I wish to hear the worst and the best arguments on a topic.

Doing what you ask, as in join a pro-Nintendo community will 100% have a bad outcome since it will, by definition, be an echo chamber.

This is completely wrong. If there's more discussion for a product like the Steam Deck vs the Nintendo Switch despite the staggering difference in the size of the install base than that community is BROKEN

A lot of Linux enthusiasts are on this site, and the Steam Deck runs Linux.

If you are looking for Nintendo specific communities, you have

!nintendo@lemmy.world and !nintendo@lemmy.ml

It doesn't mean at all that the community is broken. Are you looking for a Nintendo Echo-chamber for real? Every social media will contain one, and every social media will also have a group criticizing it. This is true with everything, not only Nintendo.

Why are you getting mad over this anyway, that is just the nature of social media?
