Ever since the Switch has come out it has been such a huge viral craze on YouTube and on other social media to lick the Nintendo switch cartridges.
. Supposidly nintendo has laced them with some vile chemical that makes them taste like death so that infants and toddlers would be repulsed and not swallow them. It's the first time this has ever been done in gaming to my knowledge and its full of intrigue and curiosity. Their are so many questions to be answered.
I wonder if Nintendo knew it would be viral because humans like subjecting themselves to discomfort to relate with their peers or to fulfill a curiosity they have especially on the internet. Similar to the cinnamon challenge or the sour candy challenges. I wonder if Nintendo was so advanced that they predicted it and made the hype around the taste themselves for added publicity. It's so innovative to add the chemical in contrast to the amount of exposure it's giving. Some people are even buying the games just to lick them.
Has anyone on here fallen victim to the overall complex curiosity of the human mind to see what the cartridge really tastes like? Did you ever contemplate trying one?
I tried fighting against the urge for so long, but the curiosity became too much to overcome. I had to experience what everyone else was. I fell to peer pressure. I just couldn't help but wonder what it was like. So i licked my breath of the wild cart. The flavor eruption was almost immediate. And it stunned me. It's so strong and it's very long lasting. I actually really like the flavor. It tastes like nothing you will ever taste in this realm. It is so complex and unique.
. It tastes sort of like a extract of something bitter but it has fruity undertones, it tastes of chemicals and death but the light that shines on the other side of death as well. It tastes invigorating and new. The taste buds have never even fathomed such a taste.
Also, with BOTW being the most licked game in history and being slobbered on by the masses do you think this hurts your chances of buying pre owned nintendo switch games especially BOTW or earlier releases from gamestop or on ebay knowing they may have been licked by the previous owner?
