Nice to see a gaming company building HQ instead of selling them off.

Buy hey, at least someone is buying buildings instead of selling them!

Well that didn't take long.

Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

You mention and focus on game dev... but I was pretty sure this was defined to focus on hardware going forward. Of course, for Nintendo that does involve new game ideas... but primarily this was to be the home of the now combined portable and home console hardware divisions.

Nintendo should not only lay off their entire marketing team, but their architects as well.

Are you sure? Nintendolife and other sources around the internet are claiming this new building will house both software and hardware development, apparently to improve their working together...

Enough space for new employees that they need for HD development.

They must change their hiring philosophy a little bit. It's almost impossible to get a job in the software development teams due to ridiculously high standards.
