Really? Chinese people hate Tencent?

Have to watch out with Disney games, China censors Winnie the Pooh for some reason. Apparently there is something offensive it to the Chinese.

The Chinese Government censors Winnie the Pooh because people turned into an anti Xi Jinping meme because they look exactly alike. 

Not offensive to Chinese in general, just the fragile ego of a tyrant.

It's not really going to do much like the previous releases of Nintendo systems did in the region ...

Without decent localization efforts, to the Chinese a Nintendo system is nearly a barren wasteland figuratively speaking ...

I mean gamers, of course not the type of gamers who only play League of Legend or PUBG. Tencent has bad reputation in its early days on doing micro-transaction and lack of innovation(copycat), and the game which made its rich was basically League of Legend, a game that wasn't a Tencent game at first, also micro-transaction in almost every game it published helped a lot to make easy money from kids for Tencent. That's basically why the company is hated by most of gamers in China. 

Last thing I heard of Tencent was that they're evil. What's the current take on it? Should we be mad or are they good now because they're dealing with Nintendo?

Jingpin the Poo? That fits, if you ask me ^^ 

I know many people don't think this is that big of news and that the Switch won't catch on to the masses, but it has the potential to be huge. I don't have any expectations personally, but all I know is that the more markets that the Switch enters, the more it will sell. Even if it sells modestly, it is still more than not entering the market at all.

They DO have decent localization though.

Starting from 2017 they started making traditional and simplified Chinese subtitled games. Zelda has subs, and so did USUM.

Yes it's mostly for the taiwanese/Hong Kong market but still

Switch's selection of simplified Chinese translated titles is few and far in between right now ... (not many in the mainland know of traditional Chinese anymore)

The fact that the Switch has yet to release in mainland China is a massive red flag. For comparison, the PS4 launched in mainland China OVER 4 YEARS AGO. It's not just going to be localization issues though since the Switch won't release until maybe next year ... 

In all honestly, Switch's launch in China won't mean much in the grand scheme of things since Nintendo has dropped the ball in it's preparations for that market. The portable design in favour of the Switch won't matter much to the Chinese by the time they have a 5G network to be able to stream games from their own PCs. FWIW, to the Chinese the Switch alone in it's current or future state won't be a very compelling offer to many. Had the Switch launched last year instead things may have played out somewhat differently but now it's just too late to make any impact ...
