There is no debate about whether Nintendo has been distancing itself from Western developers. That is very clear for all to see. The issue some people have taken here, is with the misinformation and spin that has been included in what would have been an outstanding OP, made worse by some very generalised assumptions made later on in the thread.

Yes, we do need more posts like Soundwave's OP in the forums, but only if they're based on, and backed up with fact.

If that's the case, then it's all fine by me. I couldn't care less about the details.

The only thing I could criticize is the importance you and many people are giving to such details, which I believe is being more destructive than constructive (once there is no consensus between you and Soundwave). So I have a suggestion for you: create that amazing OP you wanted to see and post it here for us to read. Instead of just criticizing the OP, losing focus from the main message and engaging into small "fights" that are not worth the time (at least in my opinion), you would be emphasizing the main points with an enhanced and fact-proven article (with all the correct details backed up by sources). That would be outstanding :) Could you do that?

If you want people to focus on the message instead of the details, leave out the details. You cant  expect people to see something they beleive is skewed or wrong, and simply ignore it. And since the main point being true in the OP is supposedly because the reasoning in the OP, it would make sense to talk about them.

 

EDIT:

 

You cant tell other people they aren't allowed to find the details important just because you dont.
