i think its a good idear, but i wouldnt pay to see it...like only if its on tv or somthing

I'd love to see it. The Hanafuda card company that became a gaming giant due to Yamauchi, Yokoi, Miyamoto and, ultimately, Iwata. That'd be fun.

Yes, it'd be really intetesting. I love looking out the old Yoshiro and Miyamoto pictures that came up a while ago. I learn't one thing from those pictures, Miyamoto has a hot daughter, but he allowed her to marry one of the ugliest guys I've ever seen.

Also, it'd be cool if it had a cinema release and was directed by an unbiased source. If Bieber can get one, I'm pretty sure Nintendo could get one.

Yea, I did some further research into the subject because I couldn't let the Nintendo screwed Sony stance stand.  Wikipedia doesn't really dwell into much except saying "The deal was broken by Nintendo after they were unable to come to an agreement on how revenue would be split between the two companies."

However, I found another site (http://www.n-sider.com/contentview.php?contentid=231) stating:
"Sony quickly began development on its home console in secret using the proposed "Super Disc technology". The technology was not scheduled to be released for another 18 months. Sony's console was initially called the "Super Disc", and was supposed to be able to play both SNES cartridges and CD-ROMs, of which Sony was to be the "sole worldwide licenser," as stated in the contract.

Nintendo president, Hiroshi Yamauchi thought CD-ROM technology and multimedia would be a vital part of the future of video games. He increased Nintendo's research budget to facilitate the exploration of this new future.

Nintendo was searching for a format to expand its multimedia endeavors, however for some reason Nintendo did not read the contract closely or simply didn't heed enough caution. Hiroshi Yamauchi and Co. thought they were playing Sony, but in reality, Sony would come to play Nintendo like a fiddle.

Rumors surfaced indicating that Sony lawyers had skillfully crafted the agreement so that it allowed Sony to reap publishing profits from the SNES/Super Famicom CD-based games. These were the very profits Nintendo most sought to retain."

See it?

Heck, if I had the resources I'd like to make it.

I would love it, I would watch it and they buy it on DVD or Blu Ray

I was thinking the same thing.  Unfortunately, I probably wouldn't make a very good one which Nintendo deserves.  I think the perfect candidate would be Alex Gibney (he produced/directed Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room and Casino Jack and the United States of Money which were very well done).  Maybe I should try and contact him and give him the idea (probably wouldn't work but worth a shot).

I know enough of Nintendo's history that I don't really have an interest in seeing a documentary.

I thought the same thing awhile back.  Somehow, I never even knew they had a system before the NES (Color TV Game) until recently.  I suppose I was just too into the Atari 2600 at the time (also way too young) to realize that there were a ton of different game consoles back then. 

I would certainly watch any documentary about my belove Big N.

For any of you who actually want to learn the history of Nintendo, the best resource I know of it this book: Game Over by David Sheff

http://www.amazon.com/Game-Over-Press-Start-Continue/dp/0966961706/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1298951993&sr=8-3

It's a very thourough and well written history of the company and includes some of the coolest stories about the company, out side of just the games, like the Donkey Kong vs. King Kong lawsuit, the crazy story of how Nintendo got the handheld rights to Tetris, and yes the complete story behind the Nintendo/playstation split. It's pretty hard to find now, but 100% worth reading by any serious game, Nintendo fan or not.
