| RolStoppable said: If Nintendo were really handling third party relationships so badly as it is usually portrayed, then third parties should have the dignity to not go in front of a camera to praise an upcoming Nintendo console they do not plan to support or announce games that will never go into production. If third parties truly aren't happy, then they shouldn't pretend that they are. After all, you can't save a problem if you act like there is none. The reality is that there isn't much of a problem from Nintendo's side, because indie developers have repeatedly gone on record to say that Nintendo has been forthcoming. The actual problem is that the big third party publishers feel entitled to get paid off by Nintendo. |
People lie in front of the camera/articles all the time. Some can be genuine. But others is just to protect their image to consumers. And to make themselves bigger. If Ubisoft did say what they should say about Nintendo. Than Nintendo fans that do own both consoles will get pissed and boycot. Small numbers. But it's a profit line and image. So it's better to be neutral above all things. It's like Reggie totally agrees with Iwata's way. He has to show a public image. But I will not buy it for a second he likes everything Japan decides on, while he's sitting in his office alone.
