This is why. 

 

Oddly enough, Dark Souls 2 is the worst Soul-esque game of the franchise.

 

As for the OP, I'd love for a Dead Rising in the vein of Chop till you drop to be released on a Nintendo console. I mean, it was inferior to the original Dead Rising, but still a good fun nonetheless, plus exclusive extras.

And notice this persons mind didn't change after Nintendo released their statement. ALso, we have to assume this person is going to actually go through with not buying the product, how many times have you seen on this website where someone said they had no interest or didn't want a product later to write in a discussion "well I just got a _____, what games do you recommend". Happens all the time.

Because this person is aware of Nintendo's track record of falsly denying these reports, as it was mentioned in the video they replied to. And they made a few comments about it as well.



And yeah, some people don't go through with what they say. And some people do. We can't assume that every single person is lying. Neither can Nintendo, and their PR team wouldn't be doing their job if they didn't try to quell some of the worries and anger.

Also, from what I now read, Nintendo didn't actually deny this report from Nikkei. They only said that Nikkei's information didn't come from them (they also said that when Nikkei reported about the 3DS XL), and that “From the next quarter and thereafter as well, production [of the Wii U] is scheduled to continue.”
So by being vague, it sounds like they're indirectly denying it, which is how many people percieved it.

But trying to quell the worries and anger with disception will only lead to mistrust in the end (unless of course the rumor IS false). They have far more to lose by denying it and production actually end, than it would to just not say anything. People who initially didn't care about the Nikkei rumor aren't going to appreciate knowing Nintendo is lying to sell a few consoles, and if those people who were worried wind up buying a Wii U due to Nintendo's statement, how pissed are they going to be if production does end and the online servers are shut down in the near future? 

I know I for one am getting pretty exhausted of the PR spins, the bullshit, and the flat out lies of this generation from Nintendo. When I go to a forum discussing them, I can pretty much assume the worst outcome is the one I know is going to happen with the company. How many people are they going to lose/have they lost because of that? 

How many people thanks to this generation alone are going to take a wait and see approach to NX? FAR more than people who are worried about the end of production rumor from Nekkei.
