If you’re completely incapable of seeing how different people have different priorities in devices they want, i don’t see any purpose in bothering with you further.
Again, you aren’t specific, you just throw random stuff around.
Don’t bother then, since you haven’t bothered to say why this is bad for consumers/everyone and instead spent the past two posts avoiding it completely.
How does replaceable batteries affect your consumption in a negative way? I think we’re all curious on this one
I genuinely find it astounding that you people find it so utterly incomprehensible that when it comes to designing these things, no choice is without downsides. As I said in the other comment, the idiot-proof standard the EU wants comes at a significant cost to space, and thus device size and battery life. And since I’m already equipped to (and have on multiple occasions) replaced batteries in devices that are meant to be sealed shit and serviced by technicians, I see exactly no benefit whatsoever from these regulations, only the downsides of bulkier devices and worse battery life.
You see no benefit? I see a huge benefit. I can replace my own battery when needed.
You don’t want to see a benefit.
I’ll gladly take a slightly larger device if it means I can replace my own battery. Make me able to replace the screen as well while we’re at it. You know, all those things we used to be able to do in 2010… before they realized they can make more money if they force us to use their own service stations instead of allowing us to do it ourselves
It only has to be better for most people for this to be a net gain. Nintendo won’t otherwise provide us with a choice of whether or not the battery is replaceable.
How dare they make things better for us!
Just because something it better for you, it doesn’t mean it’s better for everyone
Now try that again and explain why it’s not better.

Lmao. Are you 12 or something? Dude asked for your reasoning so he could better understand why you don’t want it.

What most people want should have exactly fucking zero bearing on what I am able to purchase for myself
The alternative is that a minority decides what you’re able to buy.
