Hey everyone. I'm a former employee at NOA. I'd like to take the time to talk to you a little bit about the problems and controversies going on at Nintendo. Particularly between Reggie and management.

For those of you who are not aware, Reggie has no influence or say on what games get made. His job is mainly to sell the games that Japan makes to America. NOA has VERY little influence when it comes to that sort of thing.

Reggie, and the rest of the American teams, want major third party support. Management does not. In fact, Kimishima has specifically told them.

The plan is, and always has been, to pump out more games than EVERY SINGLE THIRD PARTY PUBLISHER COMBINED, entirely in house. Yamauchi, following the 'betrayal' of Square, \instructed Iwata to never give thirds any quarter. To never cave into their demands. To never offer them money for a multiplat support and to focus solely on first and second party development.

Would be cool if it wasn't wildly unrealistic and flat-out untrue.

I agree that it's tiring hearing the same armchair """experts""" on NeoGAF overemphasize the importance of third parties though. All the third party support in the world wouldn't help Nintendo because that's not why people buy Nintendo consoles.

>betrayal

You mean betrayal as in when Sony offered lower royalities and friendly dev enviorment to thrid parties who then asked Nintendo if they could do the same and Nintendo said "Fuck off to Sony, you will die without us".

That betrayal?

That's really not how it went down. Square was making FF7 with the expectation that the N64 would have disc media like the other consoles. Then they went with cartridges. It was just impossible for Square to turn FF7 into a cartridge game
>>
>>382454325
Yes, that was exactly how it went down with every single third party developer.

Sony offered much lower costs for developers which alongside absolute garbage treatment from Nintendo lead to massive exodus.

When you get a letter from Nintendo saying "You will regret this", you really see how they were.

And I suppose you have photographic evidence of such a letter

I can actually see this as truth and factible. Nintendo is just that stupid.

That's literally the only reason I buy Nintendo consoles. At least I don't buy anything with DK, Mario, or Zelda in it.

Didn't Sony also buy a reasonable part of Square. I remember reading that only recently did Sony sell their shares. Coincidence or not it also lines up with Square(enix) support ramping up for Nintendo.

>Betrayal

Like even if you're not legit (most likely not since you wont even provide an employee badge) it just sounds so like them to be so far up their own ass they're touching the back of their teeth.

Nintendo's problems with 3rd parties are self caused, and their problems now getting more are also self caused. There's no betrayal, there's no bias from 3rd parties, it's all Nintendo's fault for being faggots and mistreating 3rd parties.

They've always imposed unfair standards to smaller or struggling 3rd parties in their contracts, those same standards which they do not impose on their internal studios. They also fucked over 3rd party pubs and devs with bad deals with the storage formats in both size and proprietary control so they can sell them, which is why Squaresoft stopped dealing with their bullshit for Sony and their CD which is easily purchased in large quantities and was a better format all around outside of load times.

Also their latest debacle is limiting their hardware and banking off gimmicks, pretending people care about their "special snowflake position" in the industry. when really Nintendo's own bullshit is forcing them to become irrelevant.

This company wont become its "old self" again, ever, until the old upper management is killed or dies off naturally.
