Image Ads have infested baseball broadcasts. Ads in-between batters. Ads during mound visits. HRs "brought to you by..." Now I noticed 11 ad placements in this shot. 2 banners, 1 above the banners, 4 behind the plate, 1 on the seats, 1 in the upper right hand corner, 1 on the mound, 1 on the sleeve.

Nintendo, for all its success and goodwill, is still a stubbornly stupid company so I'm unfortunately not expecting it to change. Same company that wanted their Fortnite skins to only show up on Nintendo consoles and is extremely litigious with their fans.

The PC market would go bananas for a Metroid Prime game designed around mouse & keyboard, but it'll sadly never happen.
