@Ka-pi96, it should be patently obvious that I'm talking about business ethics, not popularity or marketshare.

Yes we know. Nintendo's was terrible back in the day.

Bad for buesness partners sometimes comes becasue the comany is good for consumers, which nintendo obviously was, thats the reasonthey were abe to pull the US out of the video game crash. strict quality control filterd out the majority of the shovelware that would have been on the NES/SNES, and back in the days before the internet, it was hard to find out whether games were good or not, thus shovelware easily scammed even the most wary consumers, which is the reason the crash happened in the first place!
