. I don't play Nintendo, that's for kids

I used to think that also, but on the Switch, Legend of Zelda: BoTW and Smash Bros. were excellent games. And their mario platformers are the most challenging games I've played in recent times.

They're all more difficult than those with a more serious gamer cred like the classic Witcher 3.

Nintendo has pretty consistently made good games over the years. Though the childish brand is certainly on point as they don't make their games near as violent or mature seeming as is common with most western games, this is rarely a problem so long as the core gameplay is competently done and the game isn't a cheap cash in designed to trick parents and grand parents into buying it for their kid.

Problem with Nintendo is the same problem with Anime. Fan base is horrendously immature and socially awkward. Probably because it's filled with loads of kids and teens that are going through their stupid phase and are doing the "I'm not like other kids" hipster shit. There's good stuff out there so it's best not to write off the whole genre outright, but you'll be forgiven for doing so if your only exposure is due to the weirdos online.
