"Yamauchi vents his angry (beware strong language!)"

*Edit[ k, that title should have been Anger, but can't edit titles, grrr ]*

Check this link for an interview with good ol' retired Nintendo boss Hiroshi Yamauchi.

I can't quite decide if it's fake or not. He's retired now so can say pretty much all he wants, but is that an excuse to keep talking about, or referring to his genitalia!?!

:)

He MIGHT have said those things...

He's a bit of a crazy character! :-D

No, he isn't. He says some odd things occasionaly, but he's not actually insane.

Met him then?

;)

...

If he did things like that he wouldnt have run the most successful videogames company of all time for so long, would he?

I can't actually beleive that some of you stil think this might be real.

I think they were just joking Gerid and they don't *seriously* believe it was real.

Right guys?



..right?


Um. Oh dear :(

the lack of any kind of magazine layout was a bit of a giveaway.

It's incredible that any of you even considered the notion that this might have been real.

I thought it was fake, I still think it is fake, but without conclusive proof I'm just pointing out that there's a nagging possibility that it may be true. It's not that implausible.

Well, he says that he saw the flash of the Hiroshima atomic bomb...even though he was about 16 at the time, and he's Kyoto born and bred, which is about 200 miles away.

Indeed, that doesn't really rule it out, but I doubt he'd have been 200 miles away from the place he was born and bred at the age of 16.
