TalkBack / Re: Nintendo to Post Major Financial Loss
« on: October 30, 2011, 05:36:34 PM »Okay, I've got a bit of schadenfreude going here. For years Nintendo's boneheaded decisions have affected us, their customers, but not them. All their stupid obvious avoidable ****-ups screwed us out of third party support but they still made a profit. There was no real incentive for them to improve because they still made money. I didn't want them to go out of business but I really wanted them to feel the pinch for once to force them to get their **** together.
Well here it is. The arrogance of consistently making fistfuls of money while their fans deal yet again with an undersupported system and all sorts of unnecessary restrictions and limitations took them to 2011, when they released jack **** for their old systems and released a new handheld which also had jack **** for it. This was the "we can do anything, we're industructible" attitude taken to its extreme. The whole Wii seemed like a big "**** you". "We can released half-baked ****, refurbish the Gamecube and make no effort in attracting developer support and make MORE MONEY THAN EVER! HA HA HA HA HA!!"
It was going to bite them in the ass eventually. It had to. Now it has. Good. I feel Iwata ruined Nintendo and turned them into the exact sort of company I used to praise them for not being. I would love to see his ass canned.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I was going to make a sarcastic troll post of a typical Pretendo fan celebrating this news and how Nintendo was going to get "bit in the ass" for ignoring the "hardcore gamers", but I was too busy. Trolling takes effort, y'know?
But this post... hahaha. It's almost word for word verbatim what I was going to say. Then again, spambots are predictable.
