and not to mention nintendo alienated 3rd party developers on the n64 days. So offcourse it was gonna take effort to get them back. In a way i'm glad 3rd party developers left nintendo. It made nintendo realise that they NEED them to survive in the hardware industry. Sure nintendo make awesome games but people need variety.

 


Also, it taught Nintendo the value of treating developers with respect. I'm guessing this is a big reason Iwata was named Yamaguchi's successor, since he knew how to do that.

A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
