So take an indie devs word for it on internal nintendo policy (being a dev for the console doesnt give her any better of an idea about it than the average joe), or take a journalist word for it who was told directly by nintendo staff?

I'll take the latter.

Being a developer on it gives her far better incite than the average joe on the platform because she'll have to know how the games she develops are handled on the platform, a Nintendo staff can be anyone plus reps have had a history of giving out wrong information .

Let me say it again and be nice and clear about it.

Developer or not, Nintendo's internal policy on virtual console pricing, licensing and management, isn't something she would have any better knowledge of then the average joe.

Unless of course you believe that working for a company that holds a license to develop for the console means Nintendo go around giving extensive breakdowns on policies and pricing that has nothing to do with the licensee.

And why would she know "facts" about the duration and licensing type, yet only have "theories" about pricing and licensing across consoles? - Fact of the matter is, developer or not she is guessing.

Taking her word as fact holds no weight.
