Most people that hate nintendo are usually adults to think that they are men cause they play call of duty but the hate catch match the support that everyone OF All Ages give nintendo

This guy is 98% right. The only thing I disagree on is that developers, analyst and game journalist are fanboys too. Sony having Insurance, Music division, TVs, Phones, Movie Division and Laptops can make fans of Sony. The media is in bed with these mega corporations (Microsoft too) and want Nintendo out. You know it's bad when game developers and analyst talk with hate openly about Nintendo. I remember the doom articles and videos before the Wii U launched. What was Nintendo thinking naming it Wii U, It will be irrelevant when the new playstation and Xbox comes out, Nintendo needs new IP's...... The fact is, the Wii U eDRAM is better then the PS4 GDDR5.

Good 'ole John Lucas, alive and kicking. This guy would say anything to keep Nintendo free of any responsibility for any of their troubles.

Are you sure this is John Lucas? He doesn't come off as him :P

The fact is, that this is still completely made up, don't talk about stuff that you obviously don't understand.

I doubt there is any great conspiracy behind making Nintendo fail, but if there is I personally hope it continues. All the things he thinks makes publishers etc scared of Nintendo being succesful are the same things I hate about Nintendo. I don't want silly gimmicks I just want more powerful PS or Xbox.

The funny thing is, it's looking like Sony will be the first to go.



The best would be making Microsoft go. They bring way too much craps people are accustomed to now.

People confuse the conspiracy with reality. There is no organized movement by third parties behind the scenes to make Nintendo systems fail. So there is no conspiracy. There is, however, a reality where it is in the best interests of many third parties for Nintendo to not be the lead platform because a) they don't want to compete with the world's biggest software publisher b) they want their titles to be the lead games on platforms (ie COD on XBOX) and c) Nintendo will not build hardware to the specs 3rd parties want and sell it at a loss to make 3rd parties happy.


Good post. 

I'd just add to that:

d) demographics ... Sony/MS market almost entirely to the same demographics that the majority of the third parties do, at least with their big gun franchises that being hardcore male gamers aged 12-35. So that makes third parties favor those platforms more for games like Grand Theft Auto and Metal Gear Solid. You notice there is no bias against Nintendo from most family/fitness based third party titles ... Nintendo gets all the LEGO games, Disney Infinity, Skylanders, Just Dance, fitness games, Scribblenauts, Sonic, Rayman, etc. Why? Because Nintendo has Mario, DK, Wii Fit, Wii Sports, Pokemon, Kirby, etc. and third parties figure the demographics are there for cartoony/family/casual based fare. And Nintendo markets specifically to the family/kid audience. 

Beyond that I don't think Iwata-era Nintendo really bothers to engage Western 3rd parties much or at all on a regular basis. They work with Japanese devs on things like Monster Hunter and Yokai Watch and Dragon Quest bundles ... but in the West? Almost nada. I think they are simply out of touch with the Western dev community that is aggressively courted by Sony/MS all the time.

Yup, I think this is a true additional factor.  Particularily with a few notable publishers such as Take2.

I think there is a conspiracy.

well, he is not wrong in saying that "eDRAM is better than GDDR5", but .. 32MB vs 8GB .. well .. and using eDRAM means reserving a large portion of the APU for just memory and not using it for processing
