Now if only they’d be ROM friendly…
Yeah thats more on the legal team and csuite than the devs
I do seem to have overlooked that the article focuses on the creators / developers (my brain just lumped all of the “next generation” of employees into a single group). You right.
More like, if only they’d be PC friendly. I’m tired of consoles.
Nintendo is dead to me after the ROM/emulator bullshit and their refusal to fix the Joycon drift issues. Steam Deck ftw!
Yep. Fuck Nintendo. I don’t care how good their games might be, they’re not getting another dime from me for as long as they’re hostile to their community and customers.
If Miyamoto is succeeded by someone with Gabe’s pro-consumer philosophy, Nintendo could dominate.
Sony and Microsoft are too busy doing the private equity playbook.
That’s unlikely since they’d still be Japanese most likely
Nintendo’s especially strict content creator and fan game creator practices stem from Japanese Copyright law encouraging IP owners to be waaaaaaaay more aggressive about protecting them than in most other IP markets.
Like I’m pretty sure the concept of fair use isn’t legally recognized in Japan.
I’m going to need sources on that copyright law especially because of the amount of misinformation that is spread online about Japan deliberately by trolls and misinformed users
Totally Not Mark has a community discussion vid from when he had to deal with this personally because of all the manga video essays he’d been doing that got copystriked.
Cool, Nintendo, now stop hindering them with piss-weak hardware and pissing off fans with your anti-fan behaviour
I mean, neither of those bother me anymore now that I exclusively pirate from you, but for other people
they may make slow hardware but like every one of their consoles last forever. I think my n64 was like nokia level murder proof, i remember a buddy powerbombing his while we were playing wrestling and it didnt even hiccup.
I used my DSi so much the battery nearly exploded. Swelled so much it broke the rear panel… yet, I bet if I get a new battery it’ll fire right back up.
I bet it will as long as the screen ain’t cracked. I have a gba sp(the Flippy boy) that the battery exploded on and I just used it as an excuse to do an aftermarket case and the upgraded screen with more pixels.
It’s not about the hardware, obviously better hardware is better but that’s not what it’s about. It’s true tho that they must hate their customers, especially people in competitive scenes and modding.

Yet they have leaders with greed and short sight.

Edit downvotes from mickey, I mean mario
If you use your employees until they’re not usable and replace them with young, then it’s normal you have young employees.
