However, times have changed, and it’s no longer a race to see how many useless companies you can get on your side.”(Hirochi Yamauchi) “The GameCube has been well received by the development community, but we don’t believe in overwhelming third party support." (Satoru Iwata) "Now software companies are going multi-platform, running one game on lots of consoles, just to sell that little bit more. Even Sega. I can understand why the industry’s flowing this way, but, speaking for Nintendo, I can hardly welcome it,”(Yamauchi again) “If that (keeps happening), the console business becomes a commodity business. There is no reason to choose one console over another, except price,”(Satoru Iwata) They were always against multiplatform and they always thought their software was the second coming of christ while third party are peasants. Inb4 this is old Seeing what Reggie said,their vision didn't change at all. |
Out of all those quotes, only the first by Yamauchi do I find to be insulting, a comment made in 2000. You summarize these four quotes as "our console doesn't need filthy third party software" but only 1/4 of those quotes actually attack or insult third parties. Therein lies my objection: you are painting Nintendo as though they look down upon third parties when 3/4 of those quotes do no such thing. Why the bias?

The consumer decides on the correctness of Reggie's opinion? It's an opinion.
