I like Nintendo!

ever since i got my Wii on release day i’ve been really impressed with nintendo, granted i like all my games and consoles but lately nintendo has been standing out for their coutesy to the customers, i think sony and microsoft should be taking a page out of their book, here’s the timeline that makes me think this way:

first i get free nintendo powers for registering my nintendo products, which is cool as hell and made me want to subscribe

second, people are breaking stuff with their wiimotes because the straps can’t handle the intense swinging these idiots are putting them through, not knowing you don’t need to swing that hard, so nintendo sends out a message to all registered wii owners that they will give them the new improved straps for free because from now on they’ll be coming with all wiimotes, very cool on their part, microsoft or sony would make you just buy a new controller to get the new strap

third, people are still breaking their wiimotes, basically because they’re fucktards and not using the wrist strap, so what does nintendo do, creates a sleave for the wiimote that cushions it in case it goes flying, and again, all registered wii owners get the email and get free sleaves, very very cool, got myself 4 even though i won’t be using them because they don’t work with my wiimote charger, plus i’m not a moron and can hold onto my controller and use the wrist strap

fourth, i purchased the legend of zelda phantom hourglass, and like all my nintendo products i registered it, shortly thereafter i get an email offering me a free limited edition zelda feather stylus if i answer a few questions, of course i do it, it was like 5 questions, and today the stylus arrived, i figured it would be in bubble wrap but was pleasently surprised that it came in a zelda themed box, and inside the box was foam with a cutout for the stylus and of course the stylus, very badass nintendo

so, what i think is that these other fucking companies should take a few notes, hell it took microsoft over a year to admit the 360 was fucked up and longer to extend the warranty, and of course now they just replace your faulty 360 with another faulty 360, thankfully my 360 is still going strong, and then of course you got sony the big mean spiteful kid, put a system out with no games and want an insane fucking price, no one buys so instead of lowering the price, they lower the price and take away some of the stuff, yeah, good job sony drop it $100 and remove 20g from the hard driver, well, being a computer person i know that 20 gigs cost like $10, so you didn’t do it to save money you did it out of spite, all like, fine, you want buy it i’ll give you the cheaper price you want, but i’m taking back some of it, then of course it still doesn’t sell, pssss hey sony, games would help, so they drop it down to $399 now, thats a reasonable price for a working ps3, oh wait, it’s not working completely anymore, again out of spite they take out backwards compatability, so now if you don’t have a ps2 and want to play ps2 games you need to buy one and give them the $100 back, and if you look online kids are creating emulators that run games, so it can’t be too expensive to add the emulation code, so its not saving them money it’s just more spiteful bastard moves, what next, bring it to $200 but it only plays ps1 games and no blu ray?, and now you can check out images of my badass stylus
