The late and not so great...

Please elaborate.

I don't see labeling Saturo Iwata as a "late and not so great" person supporting any argument I do.

His comment was obviously meant to reflect on him as a businessman and not a person. He goes on to show how his mobile approach with "pay to play later" will make Nintendo less money than actually making their games free to play with microstransactions.

Your out of context statement makes it seem like a baseless attack. I do not think it is unreasonable to attack Iwata on his business practices, especially looking at the Wii U and the very late entry into the mobile market.

ID did this to with Doom and Quake. Today we have demos to test a game. People have the opportunity to see if they like it and buy it afterwards. Nothing wrong with that.

I agree on the point you've said in this kind of context. I didn't saw it. But, still, I don't agree with his way of necessarily saying it like that, knowing his position on Nintendo.
