I don't think it's a coincidence that his kids wanted nothing to do with running Nintendo after he died and sold all their shares in the company, which had been a family business for generations.

>BASED jap scares away the shitty devs AND doesnt give money to money laundering schemes
BASED

hard ass motherfucker, a symbol of the strong nippon of 1945

He wanted revenge on USA for the atomic bombings.

>intentionally made the N64 hard to develop for in order to scare away unskilled developers
And all the other developers

Hey boss, sure the Virtual Boy wasn't a big hit but you'll give me another chance, right?

Or maybe his kids just didn't feel like running a business and wanted to fuck off and do their own thing? I think you're looking into things a little too much here.

Without charities people are just going to demand the government babysit the whole human race off the tax payers' dime.

>Without charities people are just going to demand the government babysit the whole human race off the tax payers' dime.
HOW ABOUT NO

Yamauchi made him host the Virtual Boy booth at E3 all by himself after it had already failed at retail. Yamauchi didn't just want to scapegoat Yokoi for the Virtual Boy, he wanted him publicly humiliated.

My guess is that Yamauchi knew Yokoi was a shoe-in to replace him as president of Nintendo Japan. In his old age, he had plenty of motive to hate Yokoi, because the older Yamauchi got, the more calls he was probably hearing to let Yokoi take over.

What a badass

Most money from taxes comes from big companies and fat cats that would just sit on most of the money anyway. Or why do you think they all have so much money in their foreign bank accounts just laying around? Surely they would reinvest that, eh?

He looks like stereotypical Yakuza. Is this guy even trying to hide his connections?

>people need to be coerced into doing things they're being pressured into doing anyway

You don’t know shit, tripfag.

Fuck off.

His children were weak millennials.

but they already do that

Yeah all the games on the n64 were great right...

>intentionally made the N64 hard to develop for in order to scare away unskilled developers
>"I-it's not like I wanted Final Fantasy anyway, b-baka..."

Oh christ, the mental gymnastics on display here...

That's kind of where I'm at. My dad started a business back in the 80s, and he's become pretty wealthy doing it, but I know that if I eventually took over for him, I would just tank it within a decade. I'm not built for that shit.

The guy either looks like yakuza, or a guy who would play some kind of Japanese government official in a heisei Godzilla movie.

He looks like a Japanese Malcolm Tucker.

>>never donated to charity / philanthropy
I wouldn't either as those are all kike scams.

>In 1949, Yamauchi's grandfather and the incumbent president of Nintendo, Sekiryo Yamauchi, suffered a stroke. As he had no other immediate successor, he asked Yamauchi to come immediately to Nintendo to assume the position of president. He had to leave. Yamauchi would only accept the position if he were the only family member working at Nintendo. Reluctantly, Yamauchi's grandfather agreed, and died shortly thereafter. Under the agreement, his older cousin had to be fired.
He sounds a real family man.

it's funny because more japs would've died if the US didn't drop the bomb

>Dr. Who XDXDXD

Get out of my Sup Forums.

i'll never understand why nintendo never remade vb wario land on the 3ds. that's the biggest no-brainer ever. it's also the only good wario game

honestly he did nothing wrong with the whole third party thing. third party games were great when they were under strict control. now its shit thanks to sony letting them do whatever the fuck they want.

nintendo probably still has strong yakuza ties thanks to him

>intentionally made the N64 hard to develop for in order to scare away unskilled developers
Sounds like one of those Japanese lies they make to cover up their incompetence.

No one fucked with Yamauchi. He insulted Microsoft to their face when they asked to buy them right before the conception of the original Xbox.

Holy shit, it's funny to think that a company that had such a friendly, squeaky clean appearance was run by such a ruthless asshole.

I hope you know OP wasn't saying it was a good thing or not, just that he did it. How do you sleep with all those peanuts shaking around in your skull?

so i guess all that unplayable licensed trash from the NES and SNES era was just my imagination

He also never played video games. He never even tried them. However, he somehow knew if a game-idea was good or not by intuition. He apparently turned down a lot of Miyamotos projects.

>realizes that the SNES Play Station contract was worded in sony's favor, so he first broke the news of terminating the partnership on stage in public, and simultaneously announcing new partnership with philips (foreigner company) to spite and humiliate sony as much as possible
based, sonybros BTFO

Oh, just fuck off. There are a TON of shitty third party games for NES, SNES and N64, and that was with Nintendo's "Seal of Approval". Just marathon AVGN for a couple of hours for examples.

But it would have been military men and not civilians you piece of shit yank

you have to a special kind of retard to think that shit wasnt way worse with the ps1/ps2

That was an honest fuck up, meant more for .

it was and it was more expensive

Alright that's better, I take away saying you have a peanut brain that guy is retarded

Most of the really shitty NES games were not licenced. Nintendo really did keep the worst out.

Yeah, not co-developing the Playstation with Sony was a great idea and worked out horribly for Sony.

not an argument you Nintendo semen drinker

I'm saying that you have to either be a child who isn't old enough to remember, or are blinded by nostalgia and/or devotion to Nintendo.

>i don't know anything about imperial japanese politics

Japan had already lost you just wanted to scare russia away

>It's okay that several times more people would've died because a lot of them were holding guns

Yes
Id rather die fighting than evaporated while sleeping

He also killed Junpei Gokoi

>its okay to murder hundreds of thousands of babies with an atomic bomb not counting the ones that were born with cancer and all kids of fucked up shit

friendly reminder that the Japanese attacked the US out of nowhere and were warned several times prior to the dropping of the bomb to surrender

I know you Europoors were real busy watching Russia win the war against Germany while the US did everything in the Pacific theater, but let's not forget who started the fight with the U.S. in the first place.

Yeah, I remember that he said something along the lines of "I'd rather see my company die than to be in the hands of Americans".
He also told Rare to fuck off when they sold their stock to MS and immediately sold their share.

You have to be born before 1992 to talk shit, little assborn son of a whore
The SNES had two thousand games of which two hundred ranged from ok to timeless masterpieces. The rest was absolute trash that could have been thrown away into the dumpster. The Wii's library was 99.99% liquid dog feces, not even Atari had such a culmination of utter shit, not even when they buried E.T. in the desert. Kill yourself you stupid son of a whore

Very ok as long as it saved the lives of your fellow soldiers. Are you dumb? They did what they thought would save the most friendly lives

That's easy for you to say. What about all the widows of US soldiers that would've been created because of the massive slugest of an invasion required to take japan by conventional means? The ones who didn't have to die because instead they dropped two bombs on two cities that look better off than most US cities do in this modern day?

he actually said this

he also said people who play rpgs are "depressed gamers who like to sit alone in their dark rooms and play slow games."
among countless other burns

he's like the jiro of vidya
"There are many people in the industry that know nothing about games."

ah they were warned then its ok I guess
>hey we have this new weapon
>yes I fervertn japanese emperor will totally believe you there is no chance this is fake lmao

Are you fucking retarded

Man, what a legend.

The Wii was after Sony re-opened the floodgates of shit with the PS1 and Nintendo were forced to lower their standards to compete.

I could have sworn Japan had a law that prevented Japanese companies from being bought by foreign interests.

wait til you read up on the love hotels

It was definitely above the curve for good game/bad game ratio, and with little or maybe no shovelware at all. I can't recall any off the top of my head, at least.

I dont have any fellow soldiers
The bomb was not justified and thats the end of it you all butguers repeat those lies to feel good about yourselves
Japan had already lost, they had no fuel or food, all you had to do was leave them alone
They would own half china by now and both coreas and we would be better off too
but nooooo gotta murder civilians to make russia shit their pants

there was no invasion required
germany lost, it was over
Japan was not a threat

Hey, I'm just telling you the way things happened. If you want to go build a time machine and change the way everything worked out, be my guest.
Also, America helping rebuild Japan after the war is why Nintendo is even still around as a company in the first place.
So quit crying. I know it's what you Europoors are best at- all talk and no action, but take it down a notch.

>unironically believing your american history education
the japanese had been trying to surrender since the spring before - their navy was at the bottom, their pilots had all fucking killed themselves, their army was fuck, their merchant shipping had all been torpedoed. They were folding like an accordian. The nuke was dropped on them so that they could get the unconditional surrender before a soviet invasion and occupation that would have resulted in another north korea situation.

US shouldn't have warned them at all. Just nuke those fukcing nips into hell for Pearl Harbor.
One thing America can do is hold a fucking grudge.

It's weird when you think about how much we associate with modern Japan being a byproduct of American occupation of the country.

I'm not talking about you brainlet. I'm saying in the minds of the people at the time it was worth it do that instead of invading ground force. I can't believe I'm responding to someone so dumb. Why are you so worked up over this, none of us can change what happened nobody you're chatting with had and involvement with it

>never donated to charity / philanthropy
There's nothing wrong with that

holy shit dude
what coloring book did you learn history from

thats a modern excuse there was never going to be any ground invasion

If there was ever a time for a brainlet wojak

Im not worked up Im not the one defending the murder of babies

The atomic bomb was the vengeful ghosts of all the Chinese that the Japanese murdered, raped, tortured, and experimented on.

I'm not defending anything Nigel, I'm just saying it happened and there's nothing I can do about it. Getting angry over it isn't healthy

As if asians hadnt been killing each other for millennia, somehow only nanking matters to chink lovers

You don't get to play the victim card after targetting civilian centers with weapons of mass destruction.

seal of quality doesn't mean the game is good, just that it's bug free

>Hey retard we can stomp your shit back to the stone age like that
>FOOOOOO AMERICAN PIGGU FUKKU YOU BAKA GAIJIN WE BOMBU YOU WHENEVUH WHEREEVUH -.-
>oh okay they think we're bluffing, better not drop the bombs it might hurt their feelings

>just that it's bug free
>he actually believes this

>friendly reminder that the Japanese attacked the US out of nowhere

USA cut off their oil supplies while they were in the middle of fighting off chinese communists
Japan also attempted to make peace many times, but USA would not accept

then after WW2, the US realised germany and japan were trying to stop the communists from expanding but will never admit it was wrong

And he did.

>japan were trying to stop the communists from expanding
China wasn't even communist at that point
if Japan hadn't gone to war with China, China might not even be communist today

Do you know how real life, actual war works?
The Nips attacked Pearl Harbor out of nowhere with no declaration of War, so we slowly brought the whole thing back to their front doorstep and vaporized hundreds of thousands of their people, killing even more due to the after effects of the weapon we used which wasn't fully understood at the time.
Probably unnecessary, probably overkill, but hey- don't fight the big kid if you don't want to get your ass kicked.

wow, you sure know a lot about the Pacific campaign, even though America effectively fought it alone while you watched Russia win the European campaign for you

this

however japan did not surrender because of the nukes, tokyo firebombing caused more casualties than the nuke, they were prepared to lose more cities

they surrendered because russia declared war on them, they knew there was no chance of fighting off usa and russia at once, they were already losing to usa

And Microsoft later tore a new, big gaping one on Gamecube and later WiiU with XBox and XBOne respectively. It sure worked well with Nintendo, amiright?

SURE IS VIDEO GAMES IN HERE

nanking was propaganda
youtube.com/watch?v=aefFXZhOWBQ

how many people did unit 731 experiment on? 10 people? you know this still goes on to this very day? it's just hidden

With the Switch outselling Xbone and Xbone X, yeah, I guess it did.

This kids, is why you don't put pride above business.
I mean, I'm sure if were alive today he'd be very happy a lot of spergs on Sup Forums view his business practices as some kind of Japanese code of Samurai honor, but let's face it- mistakes were made.
Also, could everyone please stfu about WW2?

the communists had not taken control of the whole country, but they were growing

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Events_leading_to_the_attack_on_Pearl_Harbor

he looks like a japanese brick top

rate and total sales are two different things, user
we'll just have to wait a few years and see
a 4 year head start is pretty helpful, even if you're the dog named Microsoft in this race

>mistakes were made.
Not really. If Nintendo went through with the Sony deal, there would be no Nintendo today. If they let Microsoft acquire them, there would be no Nintendo today. Yamauchi was a raging douche but he unironically preserved the company's future.

yes he does

everything wrong in today's world comes from not addressing the causes of WW2 and not even knowing what actually happened

>but they were growing
yeah and their growth was aided greatly by japan declaring war on non-communist china thus weaking them and also forcing non-communist china to team up with communist china against them
