wow i cannot imagine what he is going to do to the person who make up the quote about him

aw that's sad. I would like to have had that creepy Seaman game on my 3DS.
lol but once again it seems like the Magazine tried pulling another "End of Nintendo" thing...

Well at least we have other good games coming, at least.

He does not look amused, all right...

I was so exited.

cool

So the Seaman will still find a home in the depths of the 3DS but Iwata's faith in mankind sunk because of the additonal nonsense Nikkei made up ?

But isn't Nikkei almost 95% most of the time.

That's strange... I've never known Nikki to be a gossip. I sure hope she doesn't start blabbing about those notes I sent her.

@warioswoods I think you're dating the wrong woman... there's a missing 'e'! It's small accidents like these that caused WWII and world hunger.

Guess we have reason to doubt all their other "news" now? I had doubts before, but now I'm just completely ignoring the "fact" that Japanese developers are moving from the Vita to the 3DS.

The irony of Kotaku translating complaints about "an inaccurate report online" is pretty amazing.

Go ninjas go ninjas go

Gossip comes, gossip goes. Nintendo remains. Just sayin.

@kdognumba1 What does that even mean?

I think that's the first time I've ever seen Iwata say something angry.

however: there is no real denial in iwata's statement. he sounds more like a politician attempting to diffuse trouble after being 'misunderstood' as is happening here in the States a lot right now.

If it's another end of Nintendo thing, it'll blow over. I mean, we had it with the 3DS at the start of it's launch life, and it will happen until Nintendo finally does crash at the end of time.

But seriously though, why the hating on Nintendo? They have been in the gaming industry MAKING CONSOLES for over 25 years. Sega's gone, Atari's gone, the Coleco Vision and Intellivision are gone, the 3DO came and went, almost every game company that thrived in the 1980s and 1990s is no longer making systems actively OUT there...Nintendo is still here. If they made it through that, why does everyone think they won't be able to? Nintendo thrived off of their strengths in 1986 and they are still thriving off of their strengths now. I just wish people would remember exactly how long Nintendo has been around before tossing the whole "Nintendo is going to collapse soon" argument.

As much as I would have loved Seaman on 3DS, I think it would be better off in the hands of Sega.

He's gonna send the Nintenjas after him.

He's not saying no Seaman, is he? Just not the bit about Nintendo being about to collapse? This article confuses me.

Iwata's one of the very few bigwigs to use twitter... the way it should be used.

Iwata doesn't want Seaman coming out.
