Yesterday (April 2), Nintendo dropped some fresh intel on the new Nintendo Switch 2 during its evening Nintendo Direct presentation. Japan even revealed the pre-order lottery eligibility requirements, much to the delight of many gamers.
However, one X user, Boston (@BostonGame777), found himself in a full-blown family crisis. His playtime hours weren't enough to qualify for a Switch 2 pre-order for his kid. The child burst into tears, demanding, "Dad, why didn't you play more games?!" While he found it hilarious, it also reminded him of a potential "savior" – a secret that would require him to "self-doxx." What could it be?
The user lamented the absurdity of his gaming life: "My parents used to yell 'Stop playing games all day!' when I was a kid. Now my own child is yelling 'Why didn't you play enough?!'" What a wild ride!
Seeing his child heartbroken, the user had a sudden epiphany. He actually had a secret, stashed-away Switch Lite, which he usually used for the "gentleman's game" "Bunny Garden." That console definitely had enough playtime... which meant he could use it to successfully pre-order a Switch 2 for his kid!
But here's the kicker: should he confess to his wife and child that he'd been secretly playing *those* kinds of games? He's now facing a tough choice:
1️⃣ Confess and face the music: "Actually, Dad has another Switch... and I usually play some... more adult games on it..."
2️⃣ Keep it hidden, but then he can't snag a Switch 2 for his kid, leading to a full-blown family revolution.
The user is agonizing: What on earth should he do?!
Developed by qureate, the new bishojo game "Bunny Garden" (バニーガーデン) centers around interacting with three female bar staff. Its excellent character designs, combined with the game's "delights" of peeking up skirts, encounters with staff, and mini-games, have earned it widespread acclaim from players.
Many netizens burst out laughing at the user's predicament. Who would've thought that the secret console hidden away for "Bunny Garden" would turn out to be the savior for buying a Switch 2? But bringing it out means sacrificing his dignity as a husband and father. "So he's been secretly playing *those* kinds of gentleman's games, huh? LOL."
Netizens also chimed in, suggesting he sacrifice a bit of dad-dignity for his child's smile (?).
Of course, some users advised him to just come clean to his wife and simply hide the purchase method from his kid. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad; deceiving them could lead to an even more dangerous family revolution.
Many users sympathized, lamenting that the situation was truly brutal. Not confessing is hell, confessing might also be hell, but for the sake of his child, he should probably just bring it out and buy the Switch 2...
While it's unclear what the user ultimately decided, such an awkward predicament must be truly agonizing.
Anyway, maybe try to avoid secret consoles in the future! As for "Bunny Garden"... confessing to the wife might be a bit risky, but protecting a child's smile? Probably worth it... XD.
