The only part about this that bothers me is where they're basically telling gamers on other systems to stop asking about their games. I'm moving further and further away from liking Platinum.

Why is that a problem exactly? If the game isn't going to be coming out on the other systems, why should they listen to people who beg for it?

Look where that got Ubisoft, for example. 24 hours ago everyone loved them and we were all pumped to playing Legends in a couple weeks. How quickly things change...

At the end of the day, Ubisoft has pleased a LOT more fans than they've made angry, which is the reverse for Platinum.  The Platinum reponse here came across as annoyed rather than appreciative.

If one of the studios making multi-platform games that are skipping the Wii U had said "you're not getting it, stop asking" then there would be threads of rage and charges of conspiracy flying up from the Nintendo faithful, and you know it.  It just sounds very arrogant.  It could easily have been phrased much, much better with very little effort.

I don't know man. I don't read Japanese, but I'm Korean and I can tell you that any english translation of Japanese/Korean text is going to lose a lot of its tone and intention. Unless you do read Japanese (then, my bad), I think it's hard to tell how they were really saying it.

That's true, and I did think of that at first, but I probably wouldn't have commented about the tone if he hadn't tweeted the English translation.  You're right, though, it's still a translation.  It's hard to say if it was exactly what he meant.  I'm still annoyed with SEGA/Platinum, but I'll put this aside.
