Nintendo, what the hell? I know you and the internet have something of a love-hate relationship, but come right the hell on. With as much of a constant thing this is with you, I'd cut you guys out completely if it wasn't for Pokemon.
You can't be the face of games as mechanics based fun and then tell everyone to shut up and enjoy it in private, this is going to continue to harm your reputation good games or good consoles be damned.
Yea im kinda hoping Microsoft gives them the corporate equivalent of a kick in there ass over the bad publicity to hit there billion dollar baby.Nazulu said:
Does this mean SethBling has to change his Minecraft skin, now? His popularity obviously came from his use of Mario's likeness!

You have to understand Nintendo is pro Big Corp? Their favored fan is the one whole blindly spends. Not the conscientious consumer who doesnt buy a game because they are at odds with the media giants that keep Nintendo relevant.
With their PR being split between the directs and Old money game journalists who has a lot of issues with the average Japanophile gamer who wants the full panty quest package and has taken a dump om them. This is why the Vita failed and is viewed as an example of what would happen if Nintendo takes this path with its Japanese games. The otaku audience is toxic to their journalist connections. Bad scores means no bonuses and no bonuses means potential departures and layoffs.
And ypu think Nintendo is strict with copyright should look at Japanese Media in general. The market is so focused on physical that some big music labels literally dont have a youtube accpunt to sell their products. That company is called Johnny and Associates aka the comapny that gave us Arashi and Japan's sole source of boy bands and teenage hearthrobs. If anything their tactics is similar to AKB48. To Nintendo Youtube is a denied sale for every viewer since they are not actually buying their products. Like it or not but Nintendo is merely amother cog in the JapanoCorp machine cult.
Hopefully this gives you a good idea of how Nintendo thinks and makes acceptance of the recent actions easier to deal with
Nintendo know how it works. But they got big corps to do it for them. What noise we make is puny compared to the mediaa hype machine of old journalismVanilla ISIS said:
If IGN, GS and metacritic dies suddenly maybe they will listen to fan marketing but why fix a system that isnt broke?
Complaining about anyone showing off their Mario stuff on Minecraft is like complaining about anybody's homage to ANYTHING on Minecraft: A pointless and ridiculous time-wasting exercise, and the Creepers blow it all up anyway. What a bunch of idiots.
