[QUOTE="RupeeClock, post: 4312168, member: 125264"] Just keep in mind that Nintendo back then was run by Hiroshi Yamauchi, not the likes of Satoru Iwata who has even worked on games himself in the past. Iwata is very much the face of Nintendo of Japan right now, holding Nintendo Direct presentations, giving E3 conferences, holding Iwata Asks developer interviews, even having his caricature show up in a few games like Wario Ware Smooth Moves [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bxh-mgGTQtw"]as a shop clerk[/url]. Having worked for HAL Labs at the start of his Nintendo career, he's worked on the likes of Balloon Fight, Earthbound and Kirby, so he has background on the company he now runs. Yamauchi is a startling contrast to this. He was strictly a business man, looking to become successful. Though Nintendo went the way of video games, Yamauchi never personally cared to play the games they would develop and had no expertise regarding them. He had no sort of public relation affairs like Iwata does, he was a business man through and through. Nintendo then and Nintendo now were run by very different people. Where Nintendo is now a giant in the industry, it's run by a completely different person who probably wouldn't be anywhere near as ruthless as Yamauchi. If Nintendo were run by the likes of Iwata back then, I don't know if they could have had the gumption to come out on top. [/QUOTE]
