I can't really understand who at Mercury Steam thought they could have success with that idea. I really can't.

That just shows how badly managed that company is.

I cant really understand comments like this. What is wrong with MerSte pitching the idea? It is not a sign of bad management... its a sign that they have ideas and they want to explore them. 

So you find it normal that a company that has only made five games, with only one of them being critically well received (or two if you count Jericho, which was a mixed bag), and whose last game has been critically and financially a failure and that is having financial and staff troubles, decides by its own to make a game based on an IP from no other that Nintendo (because we all know how open minded to this kind of things Nintendo is)?

And to make things worse, they had even decided the setting and aspects of the game.

That doesn't sounds as good management to me.
