@Nyteshade714 Before you start thinking you are special or somewhat intelligent, bright or anything, let me tell you that practically everyone realizes that buying a day 1 console is a risk.
It seems to me stupid and entitled to state that "consumers should be educated" on a (opinions) "smart way" to buy consoles. Consumers know very well what they are getting into, and you know, they have the fucking money and their own will to do so.
If you are thinking of a "smart" thing in the way it will make you monetary profit, buying videogames
almost always would be a "stupid" thing to do, as you will most probably not make extra money buying them, you will only "lose" money into entertainment.
But the whole entitled and stupid part of the comment is this forced concept of "losing" and making it all about monetary profit.
You don't seem to understand that many people find joy in testing things first, when they are in a somewhat raw state, and they are willing to put money into it, even extra money, because they find the whole process
entertaining and fun in itself (think early access), and exactly that, the
entertaining/having a good time part was what you were looking for when you bought a videogame, not making a fucking profit.
Stop forcing you
"genius logic" into other people, please, the entitlement feels disgusting.
PS: For sure fanboys stubbornly denying defects or disadvantages of a product are annoying, but in the other hand people forcing their "wisdoms and secrets of life" into others and "giving a class" to other people about how to live are the worst.
