You assume a lot. Plus every time a higher up from Nintendo has been asked ‘zomg, go third party, pls’ they have repeatedly stated that if they weren’t able to produce their own hardware, they would simply stop making games at all.

Eh, the day one patch argument doesn’t hold water. Yeah, they can be annoying, but it’s still far simpler and more accessible to the general consumer to just go pick up a PS4 and install some updates than it is to pick out/build a PC, buy peripherals, set it up, figure out if a game will run on it, etc... I’m not…
Oh the “warchest” argument. Which is completely irrelevant to the discussion of them being successful or not. Nintendo is a publicly traded company. Publicly traded companies are successful or not depending on how much money they make for their shareholders which is based on profit, not money held by the company.…
I think you’re being disingenuous when you say that Nintendo will be lost among all the 3rd-party developers. They are a high quality and storied game company with consistently strong titles with genre defining design. They’ll be fine.
Because, the combined 75 million current gen consoles out in the market right now is a significantly larger audience than Nintendo has been able to manage. Larger base equals higher potential sales. This isn’t complex.
Because by lifetime sales, by the end of 2016 the PS4 sold 53 million units and the WiiU sold 13 million. Half of those PS4s playing Zelda is more than twice the revenue of every WiiU playing Zelda. This isn’t particularly complicated.
It is obnoxious, but I think it’s a good thing to hear, if for no other reason than to ensure that people take the 2020 election seriously. The last time people didn’t take Trump seriously, he defied all the odds and managed to become president. I really don’t want to spend the next four years hearing, “There’s no way…
Those things were not made public by their nature and you know it. We’re, right now, talking about things that the president said publicly and if they should be officially kept in records and the answer is yes. You don’t want a world where a president can write something on social media, remove it, and then pretend it…
That isn’t practical because it opens the way for backroom deals.
Funny how Trumpers, like yourself, didn’t agree with that ruling until about half way through this article.
If you sincerely want this to be your defense of the deletion...you are no longer allowed to refer negatively to EMAILS!!1!1!!
You can’t have it both ways, dipshit. Which the whole point of bringing this up.
Actually I think we learned that from the Bush Administration doing it. Funny how the GOP forgot that.
In fact, I was just having a discussion the other day in which I was arguing that Trump should use private accounts for these types of things. He should stick to official mediums for official business
Now, I am not a legal expert in this area, but it seems to me that the intent and content of the communication is largely what is going to determine whether something is communicated as Donald Trump, the President of the United States or Donald Trump, the private citizen.
Actually incorrect... Once you take on the job like the president of the United States of America... you pretty much give up the right to be a private citizen. This is why he is being told to divest, this is why he is being told to release his tax returns and this is why his Twitter use actually might be a problem.…
This is a private account. He’s still a person, and a citizen. He has the same right to delete his own tweet as anyone else.
Yes, this. It’s the same logic by which Obama’s Crackberry (and Trump’s Samsung) was taken from him. The President doesn’t have private communications.
Everything he says and does publicly is a matter of record. This wasn’t a private communication. It was a public statement. And as such regardless if he posta it in his account or POTUS account, he is talking as the leader of the United States and what he says carries that weight. As such any PUBLIC communications on…
That’s the caveat here: He’s publishing the information with the explicit intent of public consumption.
I think whatever standards have applied to published works such as books and audio tapes would have to be applied here. Then again, there is no rule of law anymore, so it probably doesn’t matter.
Dumbass, the President of the United States of America does not have a ‘private life’. Everything s/he says will always be taken as official policy.
