    Nintendo was never really a thing where I live (other than late NES clones and occasional Gameboys back in the day).

    With Nintendo’s uncompetitive pricing policy and focus on rehashing the same properties, it’s doubtful Nintendo will ever be a thing in our region,

      This Nintendo with its price point, ridiculously priced games, and Nintendo’s overall shitty policies, shouldn’t be a thing anywhere. Like Apple fans though, the more anti consumer a product is, the more people will buy it and collectively make things worse for the rest of us.

        If the focus was on more competitive markets (in the real sense, not PR) and we had less corruption, Nintendo copyrights would already begin to expire.

        This way Nintendo could make it’s own game and it’s own console and others could try out their own concepts.

      They’ll just continue their focus on large western/Asian markets, it’s not like they need every country to be successful. They’ve been conditioned to just buy whatever AAA is put out
