MDMAlliance said: I am not saying negative press is nonexistent for other companies, but that the recent press for Nintendo is almost solely negative. I go to kotaku, negative press. I go to IGN, negative press. I go here, negative threads and updates about negative press. Sony negative press is not nearly as high, and microsoft is even lower. Some articles even post false positive stuff about Microsoft. It's hard for me to find anything positive about Nintendo, and the ones that I do find is worded in a way that could easily be tossed away and made into something negative. Neogaf also was filled with negativity as well, with only a few supporters here and there. The reason now that Sony may be getting more negative press is because there's really something going wrong with Sony, more so of a point than to bash Nintendo. Years upon years of financial loss would get anyone negative attention. Even so, the negative articles I've seen about Sony tend to try to give some kind of hope at the end, versus the Nintendo doom articles just insulting the company and systems. |
The biggest reason nintendo is getting negative press is their own fault. They botched their E3 presentation two years in a row when they had the chance to really shine and get some good buzz going on with the press. Other than that all companies get negative press, the issue is some of you fans consider dev comments about the wiiu power etc as negative press. They really are not. Ninty can really turn the press around with a solid showing at their own conference (this is confirmed right?)...show up and do a good showing and they are good to go for the wiiu launch. They should look back at the 3ds centric 2010 conference for some pointers. That one was very well done.
On topic: I don't hate em at all. I just do not care for their first party offerings in general. I personally find them to be boring and/or of genre that are not my favorites. Doesn't mean I hate, means I don't care. Same goes for most people. Hating the company is such a stupid thing. Now nintendo fanboys are some of the worst I have ever seen on the internet nowadays. It's ironic since they preach/ed about sony and sony fans being arrogant during the ps2 era yet here they are, doing the same or worse. But then again fanboys in general suck I suppose. I stick to the official thread most of the time for this very reason...I do not wanna have stupid arguments about why getting two versions of the same game is a bad thing or something.
