I work in advertising for the gaming industry, and this (frustrating thing) happens because of timelines and process. Often you start a project like this a whole year in advance, or six months, before any reviews are even out. Literally no one has played the game, or reviewed it, but you’re required to provide quotes…

Nintendo doesn’t need to explain themselves to these people. It’s not their responsibility that a very small group of their fans are angry about basically nothing. I’m willing to bet that they’re not even aware of this supposed backlash. And why would they be? As the article states, Fire Emblem Fates is selling…

Well, I would guess that the majority of people who bought this are children, and it’s unfair to expect an eight-year-old to look for warning signs that this might be a scam.

If the NX is to ditch the GamePad but offer Wii U b/c, this would be a good contingency plan.

Didn’t Nintendo announce that WiiUs actually can handle two gamepads when they revealed the console?
