So, if you SOMEHOW haven’t heard today, the Nintendo Switch 2 is coming, and in April, we’ll get an official Nintendo Direct breaking down the games you’ll get to play on it. However, there’s little doubt that part of this “monumental moment” was a bit soured by the NUMEROUS leakers that somehow spilled the beans on just about everything the console was going to feature. Sure, they technically didn’t get everything right, but it was very close, which undoubtedly caused frustration within The Big N. Oh, and it frustrated Hideki Kamiya, too!
Over on Twitter, the beloved game developer (and master of the “ban hammer”) broke down why he hated all of these leakers:
“I hope that all of the people who leaked Switch 2 information/those who helped leak it will be cursed for the rest of their lives to always have poop on the soles of their shoes when they get home. The shi**y leaker only acts for his own pleasure and self-satisfaction, not only is he not contributing to anyone’s benefit, he is incurring all sorts of opportunity losses, and has done nothing to be proud of in front of others. He is the worst of scum, so he should be covered in sh*t from head to toe and thrown out of the atmosphere… and then stop thinking and wander forever.”
So, yeah, he’s got feelings on this. Hideki Kamiya is never one to just “leave it be,” he’s going to lash out, and these Nintendo Switch 2 leakers got his ire. Oh, you don’t believe us? Well…he had more to say…
“These damn leakers are in a position of responsibility where they have access to information that only a very select few know, yet what they do is nothing more than an expression of a filthy desire for approval that lacks a shred of rationality; they are shameful people, so it is not the manufacturers whose secrets have been exposed who should be blamed, but these damn people, and they need to be crushed as soon as possible.”
Don’t eff with Kamiya is the lesson here, children.
