People cheering because they fired Rapp to keep their family-friendly image is fucking hilarious.

People wanted them to take action to protect public consensus about themselves, no matter if the alleged controversy is not even known outside of the most dedicated of circles.
In other words, they're saying it's okay when Nintendo makes changes to their games because they should do anything they can to protect their public image.
To spell it out, they support Nintendo censoring their games by cheering for this.
>>
I'm ok with Nintendo it's the fanboys who just got an innocent person fired that has me pissed off.

Point to me where she actually did any of the shit you retards accused her of.
>>
As someone who grew up on NES/SNES/Genesis styled games, basically the only place I can still find these en mass is on Nintendo hardware, and they still make the best ones, so they're A-OK in my book.

I just turned 31 and have very little time to play games anymore, so if they ever stopped producing hardware I would likely stop buying new systems (not out of spite, but because the quantity of stuff I like would drop to below the justifiable threshold).

Treehouse/censorship crap doesn't bother me because if you don't follow it that closely you never notice anyway.

I literally cry when I hear a game is being censored, because I wanted to support my favorite game devys but can't. She deserved what she got.

>>
>>332589629
Negative, holy fucking fuck, negative.
Nevermind some bitch with a nose ring, Nintendo's a goddamn joke.

Planet Robobot is so recycled from Triple Deluxe that Al Gore gave it a medal for being green.

Star Fox Zero so completely and thoroughly DOES NOT UNDERSTAND the pacing and mechanisms of the Star Fox/on-rails shooter formula.

Metroid is a laughing stock.

MK8 and Smash have gameplay issues that I thought were long buried or were just non-issues.

Mario Tennis was so goddamned barebones.

Amiibo are being made and hamfisted into every single release - Planet Robobot is going to have 4 of the fucking things.

I'm furious with this company, and their products were the one thing that put a smile on my face.
>>
I still like Nintendo, but I'm kind of disappointed with their handling of the Wii U. Still a nice console with good games, but there is so much wait in between them.

NoA can be a bitch though.
>>
I'll reserve my judgement on Nintendo until I see what the NX is. I haven't actually owned a Nintendo console since Gamecube.

After what I'm seeing with PS4.5, I am open-minded about giving them a second look. I'd say the same for Microsoft, but after what they pulled to launch Xbone, I think the mask is most certainly off there.

All the contraversy that came out makes little sense to me. Maybe because I've been around Nintendo for decades so all the localization changes just seem normal for them. I mean I get why people which NoA was more ok with some of the stuff in their games but it just seem strange how this massive controversy suddenly grew.

As for if NoA will change and be ok with their "weirdness" in later games the answer is no. I mean they are MUCH better than before but they will never be at a point where they would leave stuff like petting and Lin in a bikini.
>>
>>332592030

She basically fired herself by going against a clause in her employment contract.

I hate sjws, liberals, and degeneracy in general but what people on here were doing to her was wrong.

I was in the first few threads a month or so when this all started and I argued with everyone in the thread who was against her.

I read her thesis, perhaps on of the few people on here who did, because I wanted to see if she actually did advocate kid loving and her thesis did not...and her tweets were ambiguous.

Nothing that should have warranted any attention from /v/.

It makes me made because there are real sjw and liberal shit that pol could go after, but so much time was wasted on this stupid shit. The shekelshoah proved that and it was awesome. One of pols best times.

I've been on 4chan almost daily for a decade and this is one of the few times I've disagreed with the it.

It's pretty bad. She wasn't a pedophile and her thesis wasn't pro pedophile and she even has a line about how she is for criminal punishment for it.

I love /v/ and we were the best board until about a year ago. We need to hold ourselves to a standard of evidence before we act or else we'll turn into sjws, or worse, ben shapiro.

I would rather them have just one system or just go third party.

As a massive Nintendo fanboy:

1:The Wii U and everything about it was a massive cluster fuck from the games too the console itself. It is the only Nintendo console I don't own.

2: I'm not fully anti their localization, but I do think they go too far with the censorship (changing costumes etc), personally I had no problem with them changing Fates horrendous japanese script though.

3: Don't like how Fire Emblem has become a weeb waifu akihabara otaku circlejerk franchise.

4: Don't like how basically every Nintendo franchise apart from Zelda, Mario and Pokemon has been binned.

5: on Alison Rapp, I don't think she should have been fired, I think Nintendo handled it awful and GG faggots are fuckwits.

6: No problem with them branching into mobile so far, Miitomo and Pokemon go look alright. Though I will have a problem if it seriously diverts resources from handhelds.

Let's play Devil's Advocate for a second.

If Rapp is telling the truth, and she was actually in favor of keeping things like the Xenoblade Boob Slider in the Western release of the game, should the smear campaign have still happened? From what I can tell she claims to be mostly in favor of sexual content, but perhaps this isn't the case when it's incestuous or pedophilic in nature. She claims that she has now power to make decisions like this, and that it all came down to some arbitrary decisions Nintendo made. If this were indeed the case, did she deserve it?

I'm glad she got shitcanned either way because I don't think a political extremist has any place in the video game industry, which is supposed to be about selling customers what they want to make a product, not shoving political agendas down the consumers' throats.

People like to pin things on a easy target. All the CENSORSHIP comes down to executive power. Just people in suits looking at things like petting and breast slider as too sexual.

You're either a child, or a sheltered (and probably autistic) adult that knows nothing about the real world.

That would be a huge disrespect to her privacy if they accompanied it with a statement. You just don't do that. You keep it down low and let people deal with it on their own terms.

This shit blew up. That is why they issued it.

Fuck, I think the whole thing is stupid and she did nothing wrong. I don't think anything she's ever said was ever that bad, and if that was all I'd probably be making another argument all together. But moonlighting is a legitimate reason for dismissal. Go outside and get some air.

I agree with this, Nintendo seem to not know what the fuck they are doing at the moment.

I think one of the big problems for them is they've been trounced by indie developers and other developers doing Nintendo better than Nintendo so they honestly don't know what to do with their franchises.

Their recent games being so fucking half-assed and the absolute disconnect from the community doesn't help as well. As you have said, everything since E3 2015 (which was atrociously bad) has been essentially awful.

Fucking Pokkén Tournament, a POKEMON GAME didn't even have any launch media, campaign or anything.

They've seriously given up on the Wii U, one of the big problems is they've given us nothing for the NX, which apparently launches later this year.

I'd like Nintendo to release a powerful console, make games with complex mechanics and engaging stories, and overall focus on quality rather than "broad appeal".

What do I get? Mobile gaming, theme parks and Linkle.

What did Rapp do that made everyone hate her?

I might buy the NX if Pikmin 4 and some other promising games come out.
I personally think that with Iwata out of the picture though, we might see something more than meh consoles being released.

That has nothing to do with censorship of games. Rapp had nothing to do with localizing and she had no power other than being a marketer. If they fired her for her tweets it's because she fucked up on PR, which is an important part of her job.

Reggie is nothing more than a pr rep who became a meme and he doesn't deserve his position.

Iwata sabotaged Nintendo into believing you need to pre-emptively release a console with a gimmick before it gets popular, leading Nintendo to try to shoehorn gimmicks into everything.

Miyamoto is not a good mentor and he shines best when he's allowed to develop and design. Everyone knows he's unhappy in his current role at Nintendo and they should just let him make games again.

When Nintendo isn't implementing a gimmick, they're half-assing the title entirely by making it a ".5" version of the previous installment.

Nintendo should abandon hardware entirely and go third party so they can focus specifically on software. Nintendo of America desperately needs somebody new in charge who will ensure Nintendo's products are treated with more respect, in terms of both proper stock of inventory on store shelves and less recklessness when it comes to translating dialogue or editing graphics. Nintendo has already pissed off too many major third party publishers already anyway, going third party themselves would mean they wouldn't have to give two shits about any of them.

Everything about Nintendo of Europe seems to be going fine. They have really redeemed themselves over the past few years compared to how they used to treat their customers, especially with localization times.

The two jobs thing is probably just a way for them to be more polite about it. She has already said plainly that they looked through her tweets and found them unacceptable, and part of what they undoubtedly found unacceptable was her posting images of herself in sexy photo shoots with Nintendo products. Hence they can use the moonlighting as the focus of the explanation. There can be no doubt that they also had issues with her posts about child sexuality, but are being tactful in not bringing those up.

I'll probably pass on the NX just because they fucked over the wii u audience. I'll have to see how it pans out for them in terms of third party and how much of a gimmick piece of shit it's going to be.

To be honest I wish they would go the Sega route and just make multi-platform games. I know it would be weird as fuck but goddammit where are all the games? I thought they were supposed to make a ton of first party games but there are less and less each gen. I would rather they stop making consoles except handhelds and just make multi-platform games. Also if they did this you could actually buy Nintendo games for fair prices years later instead of buying a 5 year old game for 80 dollars used.

>abandon hardware and just do software

So how will they fund the 20 different games they have simultaneously in development? And all the companies they own? You think they can fund that without tens of millions of units if hardware sales?

If they left hardware they would probably have to massively downsize, fire employees, dissolve developers and focus on a much smaller number of games.

Not another company on earth makes as much software per year than Nintendo.

The Wii U was doomed from the start:

Not even Nintendo knew how the controller was to be used and basically abandoned it's functionality after Nintendo land.

The Wii U controller is kind of uncomfortable and heavy.

The Wii U controller feels hilariously outdated even by cheap tablet standards.

The console requires too many different controllers, some games you need a pro controller, others you need the Wii controller etc etc.

Underpowered as fuck.

No hard drive.

Unfair account management meaning you have to repurchase all your games across consoles.

Never appealed too casual gamers, no "casual" gamer is going to get the WiiU and it's controller like they did Wii Sports.

On top of this Nintendo NEVER committed too hardcore gamers, no Fzero, no Metroid, no Fire Emblem, the Nintendo games all feel largely half-assed.

Wasn't priced competitively against the PS4 and XOne despite being in some ways weaker than the PS3.

Because of it's weak power no third party support.

Nintendo are still massive dicks to indie developers for no reason.

>actual facts are SJW tactics

That's the complete opposite of the truth.

SJWs hate facts because its proves everything they beleive in wrong.

The only thing keeping them afloat right now is the steady (if slightly underwhelming) performance of the 3DS. Its solid catalog of games is legitimately one of the few bright spots of the entire console generation so far, and I've never once regretted my choice to purchase one.

That being said, they keep shooting themselves in the foot (AC Amiibo festival and Paper Mario Color Splash being some egregious and recent examples). The fact that they are consistently lagging their competitors in hardware and continuing disregard for casual gamers (ie. the kind of people who aren't hardcore nintendo fanboys, but may have owned and enjoyed a gamecube or N64) is really worrying.

They keep thinking its 2006, but they don't realize they can never recapture the runaway financial success of the Wii because the Wii was a meme that was in the right place at the right time. The zeitgeist of that time can never be recreated because gaming is much more accessible to non-gamers now than it was then, and nobody wants a $300 machine when their smartphone gives them their fix for $1-5 per game.

They need to go back to that steady balance of appeasing their core while slowly bringing in a trickle of casual gamers from other consoles. The gamecube may have been a financial failure for the company, but at 20 million sold it wasn't a *disaster* and it made its owners very happy with awesome first and third-party titles. If they had tweaked the formula a little rather than throw it all out with the Wii, they wouldn't be so far behind all their competitors and the laughing-stock of the industry. I think it's too early to be drawing comparisons with Sega at this point when Big N is still worth 11 billion in total assets (nearly 5 billion of it in liquid cash), but if the NX can't draw casual and core gamers back in, they will have lost much of their remaining credibility.

Negative. I wish they'd stop fucking around with controllers and just make a good console that's friendlier to third parties.
