Nintendo's Crackrock Revealed

Posted by Zonk on from the why-they-so-crazy dept.

Press the Buttons has linkage to and commentary on an N-Sider story explaining some of the wacky decisions that Nintendo has made over the years. From the post: "There are a lot of unanswered questions out there in Nintendoland: Why was there never a Metroid 64? Why did cliche villain Wario become a major character, and then only for the Game Boy? What was the Virtual Boy supposed to accomplish? Why was there only a Game Boy follow-up to Kid Icarus? The short answer is 'politics'."

    Are you suggesting that there is a multinational corporation that is NOT lead by crackheads?

    Obviously whoever made the Virtual Boy already had a severe headache from coming off a crack high to not notice the headache it gave you after 10 minutes of playing.
