We assume its Nintendos decision because of Dennis himself. Ive never met the guy, but ive got tremendous respect for him. His comments made me think that he trully respected Nintendo and enjoyed working with them. He seemd to trully enjoy their cooperation and have similar ideals. Someone who respected Nintendo so much would not leave them this rapidly. I had such high hopes for them too, i was hoping to see them make a Kid Icarus or a Zelda title. Instead ill be forced to buy an X-box to play their games. Nintendo is shooting themselves in the foot in the console race. They are forcing a Nintendo fanboy to buy another console because of their mistakes. They are loosing their small hardcore fanbase. When they sold Rare, i felt secure because Nintendo still had Retro and Silicon Knights. Well Silicon Knights are gone, a tremendously underapreceated development group by nintendo. The way Eternal Darkness was treated by Nintendo, was like you treat a red headed step child. I knew Twin Snakes was going to have a similar situation when i saw no advertisement for it whatsoever.
How is Nintendo supposed to attract adult gamers? The biggest slice of the gaming pie these days? Their Third Parties are jumping ship, their seccond parties are getting dumped (factor 5 and Silicon Knights in less than a year how dispicable) ? With the countless Mario Party Rehashes? the GCNext becomes less and less atractive for prospective buyers every day. Why would they want to buy a GCNext since Nintendos best exclusives are no longer exclusive.

Right now, the details of what is going on are completely in the dark, so we can't know
Your right, but we can know that it really really sucks.
