God I fucking hate Nintendo, my first system was the 64, i had all their shit from the gameboy pocket until advanced. My friends try to get me to buy a switch and im like fuck that. If a company was the living embodiment of an asshole it would be nintendo, sometimes they put out good shit but it always smells.
I'm a PC player but I always wonder when people have this take. I dislike, hugely, their treatment of fans in the preservation space. However, as a company they seem to not do big layoffs, rarely buy companies or IP, and have a history of leadership falling on their swords (financially) during hard times to keep their employees.
I don't dislike them as a whole because of those elements that are dead at large.
I could be wrong, I'm not deeply knowledgable outside of a handful of articles over the years.
I would rank Microsoft way worse though and I used to be in their ecosystem as a big fan. Biggest pusher of owning nothing.
I totally agree. I think Nintendo is a fantastic company in terms of:
They're pretty awful when it comes to protecting their IP (emulators, merch, etc), but in terms of doing the actual company bits, they're one of the best.
I hate their legal side, and I'm not a fan of their pricing, but I like pretty much everything else about them.
Strongly agree. They're the reason both MTX and paying to play online are so commonplace.
Credit where its due sure, but im mostly talking about how they treat their fans.
