Nintendo would hire developers, steal their code, and fire them.

I was alive and cognitive in the death of video games.

Nintendo saved that shyt.
I will put Nintendo over any and every tech company.

None of this nerd shyt would be rocking if not for Nintendo.
If you wrote code for Nintendo. You don't get to keep the code. This is before indie anything was etched out by the image brothers.

If you want to own your code. Get your own.
I think you trying to conflate eras.

Nintendo had to do quality and be warlords. Or none of this shyt you guys like. Would not even be here.

none of it.

I think your nostalgia for Nintendo saving the industry is blinding you to how bad they treated everyone willing to do business with them. There's a reason most the developers jumped ship the moment a competent competitor emerged. And that competitor exist ironically due to Nintendo’s actions towards a business partner.

Yet not understanding the math.
If you were not cognitive then.

I don't care what Nintendo did when atari was in stores, I was alive when Nintendo created their competitors due to their draconian business practices. You were probably too old for games by that point.

It's well documented. Nintendo fukked that up. They didn't embrace optical media until the Gamecube...and even that was some proprietary bullshyt and not even regular DVD.

They know they can rape people with flash media, that's why they love handhelds so much.

Cartridge >>> disc

Plus real talk.

None of those other systems have legendary games. That warrant plugging in an old console.

Sohh of course some new gamers think that shyt is whoa.

Nintendo or die.

fukk all them other companies.

Especially after I got tears of the kingdom.

They can keep all that other shyt.
Without Nintendo being Nintendo.

None of y'all would have shyt to do.
Sohh miss me with that pro Sony theft bullshyt. Nintendo only thing was going to fukk with ho ass thief ass Sony.

fukk Sony, eternal.

That goes for Phillips, and Samsung too.

Nintendo never embraced their OG 80s demographic growing up. Optical was the future and the prices they were charging more than 30 years ago for some SNES games were more than the price of games TODAY. Simple Greed.

Some other interesting tidbits.

"Sony and Phillips jointly created the CD-ROM format, everybody else like Sanyo, Matsushyta, Goldstar and so on all had to go through Sony and/or Phillips for licensing and what not.

Nintendo burned bridges with Sony by announcing at CES they were ditching them for Phillips, then Nintendo burned another bridge to Phillips for backing out of their contract with them.

Therefore Nintendo couldn’t get a CD drive even if they wanted to."


Also

One part of the story that doesn't get told as much is that after being rejected by Nintendo, Sony actually went to Sega and pitched the idea of making a console together. Sega of Japan rejected them as well, and thus the PlayStation project got the green light at Sony. Sega of America CEO called that the "stupidest decision (that Sega made) in the history of business".





Nintendo rejected Sony, then Sega rejected Sony. The rest is history.
