Date: June 25th, 2014 7:15 AM Author: Bearded parlour Doesn't really seem like they fucked them over, dude. I was expecting them to get screwed out of royalties or something. Not "well it would have been cool to make more games with them." (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2602819&forum_id=2...#25814895) |

Date: June 25th, 2014 7:39 AM Author: Bearded parlour If Nintendo had used patents or something to totally bar them from making a platformer I'd agree, but they still got to make their own platformer that was their own property. The fact the title wasn't as good seems to vindicate Nintendo's decision to keep Mario in-house. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2602819&forum_id=2...#25814911) |

Don’t “buy” their company and pay them for 7 years to make shitty games. NO Dream Team. Hold them Captive in Japan and then turn off their keycard access one day with no warning.
