Well, this wasn't the case anymore with WiiU, which was the system Oddworld released on. I dunno if he is salty, but he uses alternate facts, as Nintendo did advertise his game, the 2GB stuff, the Nintendo first standpoint (which was not a thing on WiiU which left open space for third-parties first) and so on. He is just a forum user who spouts unsubstiated stuff, because he wants to make a point. This shines a bad light on his point, because the wrong stuff takes all the spotlight.

Yes, Nintendo and third-parties have their problems. But Lanning didn't even name one, instead wrong stuff.

I'm all for criticizing Nintendo, because only with critique there can be progress. But this has no substance at all, so it is useless.

According to Wikipedia, he's been working with Nintendo since 1997.  

All I'm saying is, there are people who are attempting to dismiss everything he said because he's wrong about some things.  

In this interview? Was anything right? I mean, he may have been a point, put he do it no right by arguing drunk or so. That's just my point. You bringing stuff up he didn't. So that's fine, but people criticizing him because he brought up other stuff that is just wrong? Yes, that is OK. We could have a discussion about Nintendo and 3rd-parties, but this thread is contaminated, because the thread started on such wrong premises. Make another thread about Nintendo and 3rd-parties, ignore Lanning and make better points. But this position is just undefendable.

EDIT: And pokoko, you are also losing reputation if you try to defend this mess Lanning said. You usually make better points.
