I thought Nintendo has a pretty diehard fandom they can coast off of

This is true, but even reactionaries mock these people.

Do they? My YouTube feed was filled with videos attacking their copyright enforcement in 2020.

I frankly don’t like it because people will just be pacified by watching a fictional revolution because then they can just consume product and be wrapped up in feel good emotions than feel compelled to actually do the hard, unglamorous work that comes with being a revolutionary.

There’s also the issue of anti-capitalism in the first world leaning more towards Anarchism than Marxist-Leninism, caused by the fact that a lot of anti-capitalist fiction tries really hard to emphasize the “good” of hyper-individualism.
