In response to what several of you have (rightly) pointed out; yes, I know Platinum is not at fault here, and that even Treasure couldn't have done much within such restrictive guidelines. I didn't mean to slag off Hashimoto and the gang.
I'm just fantasizing about what could have been if Miyamoto didn't have such a misguided iron grip on the project, and if they let Treasure go at it unrestrained.
