Now I'm not saying Iwata's death was the best thing to happen to Nintendo since the launch of the Wii but
Jason Young
He also knows that big butts sell games.
Dominic Moore
Leave Sony to us
Carter Bell
he also started pandering to girl fetishists
Alexander Brooks
A lot of these decisions were made when Iwata was still alive. He's merely carrying out years of planning.
The only thing I believe was his was the marketing for the Switch since I really doubt if Iwata was running things they would do a superbowl ad.
Jack Powell
Heck the marketing in general has been leagues above the mess that was the wii u. It's like they fired the old people
Grayson Parker
>nintentobler trying hard to make this man a meme
Carter Williams
Iwata was soft, too nice. He liked games, and makign them, but he did not have it in him to utterly CRUSH his enemies.
Jayden Roberts
Did this post from another thread really need to be made into it's own thread?
Jackson Walker
They litterally did.

what's the point of pointing a gun when you throw money at them? I mean the real deal would be to make MGR2 Switch Exclusive
Jordan Thompson
Really? Because it genuinely shows. Would love to know the idiot that thought wii U was a good name over wii 2 and that E3 reveal where the damn console wasn't even shown.

After the Metal Gear Survive fiasco, it would be best to avoid anything Metal Gear related and focus on reviving Bomberman. Reviving a dead franchise make Konami look good in the process.

Its a shit meme my friend.

Kimishima will make them understand.
I'm making a Kimishima folder, post your rare Kimishimas for E3
Ayden Campbell
Delaying BotW was the only choice that makes sense.
Wii U was beyond saving so the Zelda name is better used to reboot Nintendo's efforts this gen.
Eli Morgan
>I'm not saying Iwata's death was the best thing to happen to Nintendo.
You do know Iwata was the one who set the Switch in motion right ?
Lincoln Carter
Yeah they are no longer using the outsourced marketting company they used for the wii u.Though the E3 presentation was mostly Nintendo I imagine..

Sebastian Perry
Wake me up when Nintendo finally gets a president that doesn't look like someone who will send yakuza at me after he catches me that I was pirating Nintendo games all the time.
Austin Walker
Oh boy, you fucked up. Kimishima is in this thread, RIGHT NOW.
Nathan Johnson
I want this scene to be drawn

I would read a doujinshi where Kimishima fucks young anime girls, you know because he looks like those business man that the japs like to put in
Michael Sanders

Jordan Watson
I welcome this new yakuza president. I loved Iwata as much as the next guy (no homo) but Nintendo needs a balls of steel leadership like Yamauchi's. The era of the meme-businessman have to end.
Brandon Martinez
I can assume the name nintendo wii pad or wii tablet was suggest at one point. It had to have been

Currently in the process of doing so.

Reminder that Iwata literally apologized for how fucking awful the Nintendo E3 2015 Direct was before he died.

Landon Lopez
I imagine all japanese communicate in broken english with each other
Bentley Kelly
Wii U was a huge flop but it's not hard enough to bankrupt Nintendo in one go.
Zachary Lewis
The switch is already in a better spot than the wii u AND the 3ds already after their launches and they have a nice sream of games coming out constantly instead of wide gaps.
>Nintendo thought the Wii U would sell on brand alone >Bit them in the ass super hard
The world wasn't ready for the gamepad just yet. Perfect for internet porn :3c
Connor Rogers
I think the Switch is a piece of shit but I don't want to see Nintendo die either. If anything, I hope they take some cues from SEGA and ease up on their IP protectiveness bullshit. I'm still unapologetically butthurt about AM2R.
Logan Ortiz
>MGR2 Switch Exclusive oohh
ooohhh nooo
Luke Davis
The wiiu was a neccessary failure. The wii and ds put them in their own safe space bubble for too long.
Jose Lewis
Yes he does

Oh man now I want a dramatic Nintendo documentary

Jaxon Taylor
N-no, r-really, I was just memeing, I swear!
Christian Cook
Japanese don't do business like that. The reason why Microsoft will never be popular in Japan is because the way they do business, they like to know a person and drink beers before they make deals.
Noah Brown
>Miyamoto He's either stuck in the past or focused on gimmicks. Needs to retire.
Adam Price
He's a real genius but needs people to tell him when something it's a stupid idea. I guess nobody in Nintendo have the balls to tell him "no you idiot, removing the option to move the reticle with the stick and having to do it with the gamepad it's retarded".
Parker Rivera
It's more that Nintendo is full of similarly thinking idiots.
Julian Murphy
That happen everytime everywhere, miyamoto is right where he is
Gabriel Kelly
haha no
Isaiah Garcia
George Lucas That sounds like George Lucas
Jace Foster
I'm sorry It's too late.
Luis Jenkins
Re-read what he said.
Not girls. Girl fetishists. As in men who fetishize women. Your graph supports that.
Colton Howard
I don't know if Kimishima is doing a good job on making sure people don't associate the Switch with the Wii. My family members sometimes call it the Wii Switch, and someone at my college campus yesterday said, "So you got the new Wii?"
Jayden Fisher

Nintendo is at their best when they're pure evil. See: NES, SNES

I respect both, but when there is nobody to correct you, then you end making something like the last 2 paper marios or in the worst case, mighty no. 9
Josiah Murphy

Austin Wood
>seeing Iwata on the credits of BotW and MK8D ;_;
Liam Martin
I legit shred a tear when I saw his name on the botw credits
Anthony Robinson
Let them try to make this a meme. It will be as successful as their Hillary Clinton campaign was
Christopher Baker
Think that will change a little now that they said they have more younger developers.
Jordan Miller
Everything you listed was pretty much planned by Iwata before dying though
Cameron Nelson
He is only saving the company in Japan, the west still cares less about Nintendo.
>But Switch stock... I found 3 Switches at my local Walmart, 4 at another Walmart, 5 at every Game Stop I been to, 6 at Target and 4 at Toys R Us, theres lots of stock.
Amazon might be running the system at $400-430 but look out in the wild and you can get a Switch for MSRP. No thats Akihito, you don't fuck with Akihito.
Adam Wright
where do you live, I can't find a single switch any time I try to look for one and gamestop just tries to keep selling me that stupid bundle
Jace Baker
Mikami was always a tryhard faggot. >RE4 started the decline of the series >TEW sucked Thank God he retired.
Hunter Martinez

William Reed
actually a girl game (galge) is a game for men about girls
Cameron Butler
Why do people say Kimishima is a ruthless yakuza boss?
Juan Howard
Because he looks like one.
Levi Martin

Whatever you say, buddy.
You left out that the DLC and amiibo are worse than ever.
Caleb Clark
>I found 3 Switches at my local Walmart, 4 at another Walmart, 5 at every Game Stop I been to, 6 at Target and 4 at Toys R Us
Why are you doing a take of switch stock? Do you have nothing better to do?
William Stewart

I know. It also made Capcom try and recapture lightning with RE5 and 6. 5 was OK, 6 not so much.
Jason Hill
You're delusional if you think development for any Kimmy project has come to fruition yet.
