My guess it that they’ll do some financial fuckery that shouldn’t be legal, and may not even be, and come away with profit leaving someone holding the bag.
You mean totally normal, “sexual matador”, Stephen Miller, whose wife (who is definitely not a foreign agent or beard) said inspires her every morning with his anti-left rants?
I love the one response I saw, “wouldn’t that make Katie Miller a sexual bull?” Because there are so many different ways to take it from there, and many don’t paint Stephen Miller in the lights he’d rather be seen publicly.
I suppose that’s true. The country is not well liked in Latin America either due to all the meddling they’ve done (which was not properly covered in US history classes).
I honestly can’t remember a time when EA was well liked. Even in elementary school in the 90’s, it was common for kids to refer to them as Electronic Farts.
Really? They had some bangers in the 90s, such as Road Rash and Need for Speed, as well as a ton of great games they published, like Sim City. Even their sports games were generally great.
It wasn’t really until the 2000s and 2010s that their games became money grabs.
I‘d certainly be interested to see if that‘d change any of their exploitative practices like FUT. Also hopefully that brings Codemasters back to old form… And please bring old online services back up cause money doesn‘t seem to be the issue then lol
Yeah, but that‘s usually stakeholder-driven. Of course, it could be all the same if and when they go private, but this move just seems unprecedented to me so it‘s interesting to observe if it does have any impact in this regard.
OK, so which of the Koopalings is next in line? My money’s on Ludwig!
Given my general distain for modern Nintendo, I’d have no qualms in using AI to generate a Succession parody using the Koopa Kids, if only I knew how… 😅
Shigeru Miyamoto stated that “Kirby” was chosen partly in honor of American lawyer John Kirby, who defended Nintendo in the Universal City Studios, Inc. v. Nintendo Co., Ltd. case
Not likely at all, this restructuring was made to give NCL more control over NoA, Pritchard is there to run the ship, the new CEO of NoA, Story Shibata, is the one you should be looking at.
Never heard of him, but I’d like to research what he’s up to, especially since, based upon what you’re saying… something seems wrong in your eyes. I had some hope, also knowing that likely things would stay the same.
I’m not sure if they’re concerned with Saturo Shibata directly, it’s just that under Reggie, Nintendo of America pushed hard for stuff like free Wii Sports and cheaper prices (which worked great, making the Wii a huge success), while the Nintendo Japan was of the opinion that nothing should ever be given away for free.
Under Bowser, Nintendo of America fell in line behind Japan. Culminating in stuff like the welcome tour for the Nintendo Switch 2, something that is just a tech demo of the device you just spent $400+ on, costing $10.
Having Saturo Shibata as CEO, it seems this will get worse, not better, since Nintendo Japan is excerting more control over NoA.
Point of order: Wii Sports was not free. The price of the game was added to the price of the Wii, but since you couldn't get a Wii without Wii Sports, people just assumed that was the base price.
