    Such a shame, I grew up with Nintendo’s products starting with the SNES, and loved them. Unfortunately they’re such a terrible company to their own fans, I now absolutely hate them. I will probably never buy another product from them again.

      Same (unless they make some drastic changes), but I agree with Cifaldi’s outro here on all the ways that this system was super important to the medium’s history, even the parts like total control over the system’s library that today is nothing short of bad for the consumer.

        No doubt, I can separate the historical significance of something, from my feelings. The NES was amazing for the gaming industry, and changed history forever. But I still hate Nintendo, lol

        Half-assed approach. If you truly mean it then don’t consume their products at all, this gives them cultural legitimacy.

    Those concept designs look dope as hell. No way would they’ve been able to produce that for less than $150 in 1980.

    Also I see some modern PlayStation design language in them, did Sony copy Nintendo’s homework lol.

      Yes. Yes they did because the PlayStation was supposed to be a Nintendo and Sony collaboration.
