[QUOTE="Super Kami Guru, post: 17934, member: 22"] Could you imagine how far along Sega would be right now had they kept making consoles and kept their IPs on Sega platforms? It's a shame they shot themselves in the foot with the Saturn and the Dreamcast to the point they had to stop making hardware, but there's no question they've always been more embracing of their fanbases and I love that they don't shy away from mods, fan projects and the pure dedication of people to their products. I wish Nintendo would figure that part out, because it's their only true downside. They never really embraced online gameplay, they don't like people making fan projects of their IPs and they can't stand people finding ways to make their games better. Why? I don't have a clue, it's the most senseless thing for them to be overprotective of. Spreading your passion for a series is free promotion for a company, and being a fan of Nintendo should be a rewarding experience, but in most cases it isn't. You have to fear that the boardroom, full of businessmen rather than gamers (We miss you, Iwata-san!), is what is driving this stubborn behaviour. They need someone that understands the business AND the culture of gaming to really bring the company back into the present. Their products are excellent, their games are phenomenal, their attitude towards their fanbases is atrocious. [/QUOTE]
