@omgwtfbbq: Of course it's not just about making money, they got their name from other qualities, than just their ability to make money. But even then, it all turns out Nintendo having the right businessmodel. If Nintendo would just have been making "art", they'd never got popular and still wouldn't have name of anykind.
Visit an art gallery, what do you see? Lot's of art, which is made by people who nobody have ever heard of. I doubt anyone can really say Picasso being better than some random guy making similar art, or a dozen of them, but still, for every "Picasso" there's hundreds of artists, who never get to be known by public, while they make just as good art as the "Picassos".
Ei Kiinasti.
Eikä Japanisti.
Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.
Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.
