I would like to share an interview with you about Nintendo....
This one is from NEXTGEN Magazine Aug 2001....
This Nintendo cared about making the Holiday Season....
This Nintendo cared about listening to Nintendo of America....
This Nintendo shared information with the press....
This Nintendo didn't ignore the third party problem and even tried to address it....
This Nintendo understood that it needed a variety of software from third parties to help it succeed....
This Nintendo wasn't affraid to take more chances on the buisness side of things....
This Nintendo wasn't afraid to take a loss to get their console down to a reasonable price for the consumer....
This Nintendo understood its audience much better and listened to them....
This Nintendo focused on family friendly, but also understood the importance of the more mature market....
This Nintendo....
Just read the interview and weep.... The sorrow fills me deeply simply because, look at how much of a better NOA president Peter Main was....
Look at how Yamauchi himself was willing to take a loss to get the console out there in peoples homes....
I mean, just look at how they honestly cared enough to address the third party issue....
Something current Nintendo has ignored for years....
Behold and despair....
So I ask you....
Does this Nintendo exist anymore...?
If it does, explain....
If you are like me and think it doesn't....
Fill me in....
Could this Nintendo ever return...?
Or am I'm just asking too much...?
What say you...?
