You’ve got to feel sorry for anyone working on Nintendo’s social media accounts right now. Just imagine the number of “Switch 2 announcement when?” comments you’d have to read every time you logged into the company account.

Then there’s the bright and bubbly Cupid Parasite, where you play as Cupid herself, or the almost brutally…
