What is the employees' opinion of the direction Nintendo has taken in their next gen console and handheld philosophies?
I'm an old-school Nintendo fan, but have considered most everything since the Wii as a REALLY friggin' dumb direction to go. It breaks my heart. With dollar games on cell phones becoming the norm for most people, and having a non-traditional controller design that makes playing some of the best selling genres impossible (or just weird), they are still heading in a crazy direction and will certainly be left behind next generation.
That being said, Nintendo still has the best tech support system I've ever experienced. I mean EVER. Thanks for being a part of that. I called a few years ago with a broken DS out of warrenty--the guy looked up my account and was able to see I had been in their system since 1988 when I got a Nintendo Power subscription as child. He said, "you've been in this computer longer than I've been alive. We'll fix that for free." And BAM it was done.
