Nobody hates their most hardcore fans more than Nintendo.
- bartread 8y agoI'm not so sure why this is getting downvoted as Nintendo's approach to this kind of thing does seem unnecessarily hostile, and it's certainly a pattern of behaviour, not a one-off instance. It doesn't make any sense to me either: I mean, do they really think that because I've bought a copy of SMB 64, that I'm not going to buy any more SMB games? I've kind of lost track but, just with the 3DS I carry around fairly regularly, I have at least 3 SMB games (one or two for DS OG), plus a bunch of other games around the Mario IP.
- wolfgke 8y ago> Nobody hates their most hardcore fans more than Nintendo. Perhaps you should not become a fan of a company with such a bullying behaviour.
- lostmyoldone 8y agoOne can certainly stop being a fan, but a Nintendo fan was probably one before they knew anything about how they treat their fans. Blaming the victim for not knowing enough about ostensibly bad company practices when they became fans seems more than a little unfair, especially as many became fans when they were quite young.
- wolfgke 8y agoI openly say I cannot stay a fan as soon as I hear of such bullying behaviour.
- throwayEngineer 8y agoI find Nintendo to be the gaming equivalent of Apple. Horrible to customers and developers while taking nice profits. I don't buy from either, but I know these are popular gifts from uninformed parents to kids who watch lots of commercials.
