You are again circling around the issue instead of going right to the point. You are yet to prove that this part of the OP is a lie:

"Not letting any of their games to be launched out of their consoles (not even on PC) was a way to tell the consumer that, no matter what, Nintendo games will ever only be played on Nintendo consoles."

The argument continues to be valid even with the examples of seiya19 and S.Peelman, which haven't "saved" you at all.


You say I am circling the issue rather than going right to the point.  However, we have already showed the evidence that Nintendo has let two of their franchises release on PC (a separate system) and they have even said in their recent meeting that they were open to using their IP's on smart phones, even maybe for games.  http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/library/events/140130/03.html Here is a place to go as proof.

"Given the release dates, we can perceive it was in times when Nintendo was about to start the console business. Any games from the 90s onwards produced by Nintendo and launched on the PC or other consoles? If so, then the OP is wrong and I must correct it. If not, then the OP is just fine since it doesn't say that Nintendo has never launched games on other systems, just that they have engaged into such a strategy (at some point)."

Moreover, the OP talks about the present and the past, not about future intentions of openess to maybe...


Re-read what you, yourself, have said.  Also, Nintendo started the console business in the 80's.  Also, future intentions matter in this case given that you also say that Nintendo's trying to "tell" us something.  The fact that they have this considered means in itself that it's not true, and the fact they have done it in the past means that they have had this mindset before.  

I wouldn't have mentioned this point in particular if you #1 didn't make a false statement about Nintendo not having released any of their games for PC (even if you didn't say the word "any," the context no doubt says it given the lack of parameters.) and #2 state Nintendo's intentions based off of your false interpretation of what you thought was the truth.
