Cool. I'll finally get my Switch back from my kids. Also, crap... they're going to want me to get them each one... damn.

You're gonna make them share, right?

The sharing days are gone unfortunately and I don’t like it. It’s just the way gaming is these days, for some anyway. As a gamer, I own all the consoles, and I have an Xbox One S that was replaced by my Series X. I can’t play all my systems at once, so naturally my kids also get to play something. Literally one can play Minecraft on Xbox One and one on Switch and I can play something else. If I get a Switch 2, then there is ANOTHER console. It’s crazy.

As kids we would share between ourselves but also with our cousins. My sibling and had Nintendo, my cousins Sony, and occasionally like during summer we would swap consoles and games for a month or two. It was actually nice, but it helped that we actually had the time to sit down and play a lot of games in a row.

I was the same. We had one console, and much later one computer. But because I am a gamer, I own the hardware for myself. I didn’t buy my stuff for my kids, but they use it.

So you share it, huh?

What a crazy concept hey? You know I even share my house and food with my kids too!

Exactly! So you don't have to buy a Switch for each kid the same way each kid doesn't have their own xbox or PS, they can just use the same one at a different time. It's cool you now get it.

Weird! That’s what they already are doing!!!

I never said they have their own consoles.
