I am poor and have zero consoles, just an old laptop. I am not even a gamer, and I mostly just read.
I included a real-life console just so the readers will have something familiar to deal with (so I can make in-jokes later, and joke about popular games, if the mood strikes), instead of inventing a whole unfamiliar console and its games from scratch.
Cute, and the dialogue pacing is nice. Though, I would’ve rather they used a fictional game console, as I see too much favoritism for PS4 honestly. (Hate to sound like a hipster.)
Oddly, I hear Switch is outselling it, (and the others) but that’s probably just because it’s new, and everyone pretty much already has a PS4. Though, honestly there’s more games on WiiU that I like then either of those systems. (I also hear the controller pieces come off too easily on Switch while playing.)
Its fine for casual speech, but when you are the editor for a story that is 1.5 million words long…
You approve the Grammar Nazi idea, and you forget the “g” at the end of “doing”, and also forget the period at the end of the sentence?

I suppose it could go either way, but oh well. I guess I still have PTSD from being picked on by Playstation fanboys when I was younger, lol.
So yeah it’s clear favoritism to mention the PS4, I love how Rarity is so out of the know that she called the “Saga Nintendo Gamestation 5.”
It’s also favoritism that the artist made Nintendo the only gaming name that she’s actually heard of.
