I'd ask how they failed to notice "Smash Bros" wasn't even in the title, or taking a "niggers can't read" approach, that Link, Kirby, and Pikachu would be given prime visual space on a cover image for Smash but not be present in Mario Party. But I suppose nigs gonna find a way to nog regardless, and thus trying to discern their logic an exercise in wasting one's time.

Outside of that, the fact she didn't double check to make sure seems strange and the article seems like an subtle attempt to bring up the fact Nintendo eShop doesn't have a refund/exchange policy.

What's really strange, if she brought physical that would be much easier to do (refund within 7 days or exchange at the store) or she could just rent the title. And considering how Nintendo prices their digital games it would be cheaper to go physical unless she trying to save transport time/money.

The travel time and gas money saved by going digital is not that great, especially when she might even be able to walk or use public transport to get to a game store.

Because every other storefront does it to no ill effect. You could always put a timer, and if someone plays it for, let's say, more than two hours, then you don't offer a refund. It's not a hard problem to solve.

Again, every other storefront gives refunds. It's not about just mistakenly buying a game. It's potentially about buying shovelware that doesn't deserve money, a day one broken game, and so on. It's pro-consumer. I've never refunded a game on Steam or GoG, and yet, I'm glad that it's there.
>I just see the point in accommodating fools who can't look at a box properly before bringing it to a counter
And yet real stores offer refunds for the exact same shit. Fuck, this isn't even a refund. It's an exchange. I've walked out with the wrong oil filter, and stupid shit like that. It happens. No reason not to offer refunds other than wanting to Jew your customers.

Thing is a proper stitching takes time and effort. And with the rush to be the first to "chronicle" something (because that's what everyone's going to save in the moment), reducing each to a "place that anywhere, improper cropping, enlarge text, aspect raidou, etc takes priority. I'd also blame the loss of long term imageboard archives over the years, given how a newfag could see how things are supposed to be done easier (older thread screencaps mimicking thread flow properly).
>>15853960
Used to make OC, edits, and stuff like banners, before settling more into the occasional thread stitch, but lately there hasn't been too much worth even doing that much for. Restitching the nuRH rant being one of the last to catch my interest.
>>15853970
Issue is that no one has any reason to want to change. I'd love to see it happen, but you can't force people that enjoy wallowing in shit quality to suddenly not want to. Feel more and more like an old fart trying to tell newfags to change their ways in an era of imageboards long beyond the time I'd really yearn to go back to. All I can do is what I can do myself, which is occasional compilation stitches and restitches, in the hopes that perhaps someone might think that old style looks better, and try their hand at it themselves.
>>15854033

That's being incredibly generous. Most sub-saharan africans have an IQ around 70 which is less than what Koko the gorilla scored (around 75 to 85). And no I'm not kidding. Look it up. Niggers really ARE that dumb.

Don't be a faggot, anon. A solid refund policy is good for consumers.

They defend bad consumer practices that waste consumer's money like lootboxes, deplatforming, and bans, yet we're supposed to feel sorry for them when they earn little to the point of eating rice?
Everyone shouldn't be struggling to make a living. However if you repeatedly defend a multi million dollar corp's right to cut consumers out of the service that they've paid for, then I have no sympathy for you.
