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.

I’m new so not sure if I’m in the wrong place.
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
Are you trolling?
I mean I guess Lemmy is deeply rooted in the open source community so I believe that people here tend to have more interest in the steam deck because it’s an open system running on linux so there is a huge overlap in the communities.
Also why do you believe that reddit is anti nintendo? The nintendo switch sub alone has almost 5 Millions subscribers and is in the top100 sub reddits.

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?
Thanks! I will check them out.
I love Nintendo and have a Switch I still use, but there’s clearly a lot more to discuss about the Steam Deck right now than there is that console. The hardware is much newer, and there are far, far more questions people are asking about it as it’s a much more open device. Nobody’s asking how to set up multiple stores on the Switch, for instance, and for obvious reasons.
You think allowing users to express their opinions is wrong contrary to gathering people of one opinion only?
I don’t think there is a further point to be made in here.
They probably saw one post that wasn’t fawning praise for Nintendo and it broke them.
Like every Nintendo fan.
This is such a weird opinion as a switch owner. Communities are anti-nintendo because they talk about the steam deck more than the switch? Come on. I remember when all the cod kiddies hated on nintendo because you couldnt shout racial slurs at your opponent and you’re mad that there’s not enough talk about a console that’s been around for 6 years at this point? Communities might not be for you
it would be (and most likely is) lopsided, that’s not the same as broken though
