Goodness, can we please stop posting IGN crap ?

Most of the article seems like a giant stretch. I suppose the first one might have been "copied", but really, colours?

If you want some REAL evidence that Nintendo looks at Apple for inspiration, consider these things:

1) The first iMac had a handle to carry it around. The Gamecube, released later, also had a handle.

2) The DS Lite and Wii clearly took some design cues from Apple. There is even a Dual Screen logo on the DS Lite, just like the famous Apple on Apple products.

3) The current Macbook Pro's lower surface is just one aluminum plate. There is no additional battery slot like on most notebooks. If you want to change the battery you have to take off the whole plate. And Nintendo did the same with the 3DS. They even praised it in an Iwata asks interview.

See, IGN? I can do that as well

For all those that have an iPod, look at your Itunes.

There is a feature called "Itunes U".

Nintendo's next console is called the Wii U.

Discuss... lol

YES.

IGN looking for hits and I'm not giving them mine.

I stopped reading when I saw the comparison between a Wii Remote and an iPod! Also this guy is comparing a portable console with a laptop! I am surprised he forgot to write that they have the same color. More evidences! Yeah, right. -1.

The article is pure trash. The only thing that I liked was the presentation.
Goes to show that they've run out of ideas.

Exactly this quite good kind of presentation is completely wasted with that article.

Well, even if they did 'steal' from Apple... Isn't Apple, like, the most successful company in the history of the known universe? Lol, they'd be right to want to copy that. :P
