Seriously, Nintendo is not THAT Important

The point of this topic was to have a civil and reasonable discussion about Nintendo's role in the gaming industry, and whether some people are putting them on a pedastal.

Let's get real here. If that was your goal, then you are a terrible poster. Your OP basically set up three strawmen which you then dismantled. Yeah, congrats. Great achievement.

The actual points that are held by the majority of Nintendo fans is that Nintendo is more important to gaming than any other company has ever been. That Nintendo has innovated more than any other company which consequently means that Nintendo has made more games that had a major influence on gaming than any other company in video game history. That Nintendo has made more games that are highly regarded than any other company. Your poorly written thread made ioi, a.k.a. The Boss, participate in a gaming discussion for the first time in two years, I think. He submitted the aforementioned points and you conceded that they are true.

What happened beyond that point is that the thread went out of control. But that's actually a good thing for you, because it gives you a chance to redeem yourself. You can now collect the arguments that say that Nintendo is not the most important company in gaming and refute them in a new thread. Or you can stay on your current trajectory and start a thread about American football to call out the people who put the likes of Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers on a pedestal.

You're declaring this thread a failure because the intended discussion...happened? And that because I agreed with reasonable points that someone else made, I have disgraced myself?

Frankly, I have nothing to "redeem." I'm answerable to the moderators, not to you. If you aren't happy with this thread then you certainly don't have to participate, but if you think that gives you the right to mock me then I have to ask exactly who you think you are?
