Nintendo was awful during that period. I hope to never see a console manufacturer as arrogant and belligerent as Nintendo was during the 80s, early 90s. Sony's amazing rise was I think almost exclusively because they had better relations with developers and publishers. Every major developer for Nintendo bolted as soon as they could.

If Wii's success leads us back to that era, gamers lose. On a more positive note, I think they learned their lesson. By all accounts, they are much easier to work with now.
