  • Biggest news of the Decade, Hiroshi Yamauchi is now retired as Emperor of Nintendo.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Sine, you have zero sense of the market. This is a very big deal. Do you even know what kind of influence this guy has? The entire freakin' market is basically 80% based on his ideas. The only thing he wanted that didn't survive (and let to Nintendo losing its dominance) is developer control</div>
