yep Nintendo shutting down an American Studio is racist (which is not possible because Americans are not an ethnicity) but Microsoft shutting down Japanese developers like Mistwalker and Artoon is totally fine and has no discrimination involved according to the media?

Nintendo's Wii was never made for AAA but this studio wanted to go in the direction which is more expensive to develop than cartoony games made by Nintendo. Its no rocket science why they didnt want to support this game for the Wii which sold millions despite being a last gen console and lacking AAA games at the time. The game doesnt fit with Nintendos concept.

You have no credibility whatsoever when you say MS shut down Mistwalker and Artoon.

-Mistwalker is still active

-Artoon belonged to a Japanese publisher that filed for bankruptcy

Defend Nintendo but don't add bullshit in the middle.


Its pretty much the same, MS didnt want to fund their games and ruined both, mistwalker was working on Cry On was pretty far in devolopemnt before cancelled. Same situation MS didnt want to fund it. Bungie and Epic never belonged to MS but that didnt stop them funding their games and buying up their IPs

Mistwalker exists today because MS put them together (funding) and Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon were their form of payment to MS. MS don't owe Sakaguhi any favors, on the contrary. Saying that MS ruined Artoon is the same as saying that MS ruined DICE (EA), how much sense does that make? Is gaming business a charity?

Bungie was a MS subsidiary from 2000 til they dropped Halo 3. They were a first party studio.

Epic's Gears of War had hit written all over it. Why wouldn't they fund it?

Again, you're simply spouting bs and don't even care to fact check on the internet.
