Those people in the picture ... are models.....

I don't see what's so surprising. Isn't that what you'd do all day if you retired comfortably?

I always find the advertising funny.

Like there was that first switch advertisement where he sees his friends on a roof nearby having a party and he's like "this party needs video games".

When in real life of course whatever kind of guy is gonna whip out a switch at a party to play single player games is gonna be a social pariah.

Funny to watch in movies too when someone plays a game. Looks like the guys spaz out with the controller, it's like Hollywood hacking, guy typing at an incredible speed that would make Mavis Beacon blush but if it was accurate you'd see some guy staring a the screen clicking things sometimes, sometimes pushing enter. Sometimes drinking a coffee. For a few hours, or days.
