Thank you for your support and your thoughtful comment.

@Micheal Pachter. You Asked for an Adult who owns a Switch but does not own a Xbox1 or PS4. Although you did technically say "At least half of Switch owners own another console from Microsoft or Sony" and I do own a PS3 PS2 and PS1 so you are technically right there but my guess is you meant PS4/XB1. I do own a decent PC and I game a lot on that so it comes down to console exclusives that are not available on PC. As for not being interested in playing games developed/published by EA, Take 2, Activision and Ubisoft. I'd be interested in trying them at least. As for being persuaded into purchasing their games. I do own Overwatch and Civilization 6 on PC and I like those games. As for console titles, I can't think of any from the top of my head that I would want, also not having a current gen console does not help. I'm generally more bias to Japanese games. Just a personal preference of mine. Nothing against the western publishers, nothing particularly appealed to me enough where I would invest in a current gen console plus game. Being a PlayStation adopter for the last 3 generations. I had considered purchasing a PS4 but the only 2 games that might have persuaded me was Persona 5 Which I got on PS3 being cross-platform and Yakuza 6. Based on my personal evaluation of the value proposition didn't seem like it was worth it based on my current lifestyle. I commute a lot and the Switch made a lot of sense to me. I might have gotten Spiderman, Horizon Dawn, Uncharted 4, Kingdom Hearts 3 etc, if I owned a PS4 but I can also see a world where they just collected dust because I managed my time to do other things. We are so lucky to live in an era where we are overwhelmed and over saturated with entertainment. I just want to spend my time and money as best I can. That's not to say I won't purchase a PS4 in the future. I might decide to take the plunge if there's a significant discount or just go ps5 and play ps4 games on that assuming it has backwards compatibility. As for the late reply, I don't why but I watch your videos on Youtube a week late instead of Patreon even though I already pledge $2. Just easier to see a new video on my Youtube subscription then going through my emails I guess. Kind Regards Kniteowl
