Rut roh, looks like someone got upset that I suggested that Nintendo might be a for-profit corporation rather than a group of elves making games in a tree-top workshop.  Please forgive me!

Oh.  OHH.  I see, Nintendo's moves only LOOKED like they were ruthless but they were really death-grips of love.  I SEE NOW.  Nice to know.  Can't fault that kind of logic.  I'm sure that publishers who protested that they weren't making money with Nintendo were lying.  Of course.

As far as parallax barrier technology being new, are you serious?  I mean, no, honestly, are you serious about that?  Sure, that makes sense, as the lawsuit that Nintendo just lost hinged on a patent that was filed in 2003 and Sharp has been using it for quite awhile.  Have you even seen the materials estimates for the 3DS?  As I said, they were making a huge profit.  That's what the hell I'm talking about.   Honestly, I can't believe that someone would still be defending that.  Of course, I get the impression that you would have defended it had it been $1000, so I guess this is kind of a dead-end discussion.

Ah, and now you climb on your soapbox again about how Nintendo games are pure and wonderful and filled with unicorns and rainbows.  Bloody hell.  They make platformers, dude.  Games where you jump on stuff to kill it instead of using guns.  That's great and everything, and awesome for people who like it, but damn, some people need to get the hell over themselves for thinking that's something sent from the bloody gods themselves.

 

Hey lad, we can all agree that Nintendo is not the all saint in the gaming industry, sure they have done some blundering choices in the past (and even now, which God forbid, what were they thinking about the 3rd-parties). But you have to admit they made some better decissions that kept themselves afloat and even turn the tide in their favour (on many occassions), plus one of the many (or few, depending on how you look) company that doesn't f*** us off as a consumer... ;)

@TheJimbo1234: You must have some twisted sence that is difficult for me to unravel and understand your mind (not giving up, though). :/
