"I Hate Nintendo"

I hate Nintendo, Same as I hate Microsoft and Sony.

They are all just money hungry industries, who don't care about customers, just money.

But they release brilliant consoles, and that’s what you should all think when it comes to choosing a console. Put it this way

If the Gamecube was made by a totally different company to Nintendo, would you but it? Or is it because of its brand logo that sells you the console?

It’s the same with sports clothes, No logo/brand name but it looks nice would you buy it?

If the 3 consoles were just named Gamecube, Xbox and PS2 instead of Nintendo Gamecube, Microsoft Xbox and Sony Playstation 2 would you buy it?

Its the brand logo that seems to sell, That’s why I hate Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony they sell their consoles with a massive printed all over it.

When you decided on buying the console of your choice, did you *first*

a) Want it because it was made by

Or

b) Because of the Games line up

That’s what people look at first, then the line up of games.

Money Hungry Industries demanding cash are all the companies want.

Nintendo aren’t brilliant with customer service, neither is Microsoft or Sony.

I don't know why I wrote this but hey.

Thanks for reading

Yes this was a spur of the moment topic.

Nintendo are not brilliant in my opinion. Just the console is good. Not very good customer care either. No business EVER puts customers first.

Microsoft spent a long time desingning the xbox, same as Nintendo took a long time putting care into their console.

I'm not saying Nintendo don't want to make a profit, of course they do. I just think they want to run a successful business but do it properly with customers in mind, rather than cheap attempts to cash in on names or sequels like EA or Sony.

way to go Maverick! putting people in their place yet again.

Basically, you can swear if you * out a few of the letters, and don't start swearing AT people.

Anyway, sorry to break it to you people, but ALL businesses are money hungry. Some more than others, in that they will go further for money, but all companies want money. Sony and Microsoft both entered the videogame market because they saw it was a growing industry that had become huge, (I believe it's now outselling the film industry?) and knew they could make money from it. Nintendo entered the home console market after seeing their success with the game and watch titles and wanting to expand this further, in order to reap higher profits. Every company is money hungry, be it a video games developer, a bank, a record label (except a very few indie labels...), a film company, a high street store chain... all of them are in it for the money. You can't hate a company for wanting to make a profit, because that's the only way a company can survive in this world. We all have to make a profit by going to work and earning money from our jobs. Unless you're gonna adopt communism (meet SHEEPY behind the old sawing mill at 3pm, the password is 'baa'), then you just have to accept that all companies wish to make a profit.

hmm... that's about all I can remember I was gonna say... sure I was gonna say more, but can't remember what it was now...

I think this is a pretty spur-of-the-moment topic that wasn't really thought through. Everyone knows Nintendo put customer care first thanks to their quality hardware and low prices. Look at the PS2, completely rushed and £300.00. The X-Box? Okay, but also a rip-off at £300.00.

Nintendo took a long time over their console, and made it the quality you can expect from them, along with their trademark games. Of course you look at the name first - but the launch line up isn't completely insignificant.

I bought a GameCube because that Nintendo are the best games developers in the world, and don't have a single poor game, and also with their backing from Rare, the GameCube is bound to have a promising future. I then looked at the launch line up - the best ever. If it was terrible, I would have waited. It wasn't though, and that's why I bought a GameCube.

Microsoft can't really capitalise on their brand name, as they haven't built a big enough name for themselves in gaming yet, and many people have said they're wary of the X-Box as it's untrustworthy. Nintendo put their name in front of the GameCube because they want to take credit for it, and people can be sure it has that seal of quality.

I don't hate Nintendo, I think they're one of the best companies in the world when it comes to customer care. People don't buy their products purely because of the name Nintendo, they buy them because they're brilliant products, and that's what Nintendo have a reputation for.

no not you, someone just copyed the whole post and said 5 words after it, some one got banned for that.

As for the swearing, well, i was just wondering becuase some times swearing would fit into what im saying but scred of saying it.

You'll have to beleive it, as i just did.

I don't own a Gamecube by the way, i am an Xbox and GBA owner.

I dont understand the rules of this place.

Your not allowed to swear but many people do, and dont get banned or anything and no one says anything about it.

And some one was banned for copying the whole topic and writing 2 or 3 words while others do it and no one cares.

Both cases i have seen happen about 4 or 5 times this week.

Thats why i don't like the PS2. Too many un-original titles in my opinion.

Xbox and GC have by far more original games out (and coming out)
