New Zelda and Nintendo’s lack of commitment to accessibility, slightly negative
It’s Legend of Inaccessibility release day, so it’s time to stop looking at some gaming sites and YouTube channels for a bit. It’s really sad that of all the major gaming companies, Nintendo is the only one that’s consistently not really cared to implement any kind of accessibility features to either their games or hardware - the Switch is the only major console still lacking any kind of Text to Speech for instance. Steve Saler put it really well in his video - Nintendo’s game design does a lot to make their games sooo close to being accessible, but it’s unfortunate they don’t decide to do that extra push and actually consult with gamers with disabilities. youtube.com/watch?v=vfFvMUpSQS…

OK can I take a moment and come back to #Nintendo for a second… So they killed the 3DS EShop a while back, making it impossible to buy or download any digital games… But, even though the system is end of life they just went out of their way to release a firmware update to patch the exploit people used to play their games (as in the ones they purchase in the past or maybe ones they never got to play because they only had a digital release). IMO this is easily one of the most user hostile companies in the world.

It most likely has to do ‘with ‘this’ video from #ModernVintageGamer and the discussion about the game #Cubic Ninja:
