Re: Review: Super Mario Run (Mobile)

8/10 = Fanboy score. In my opinion the game is a 5/10 tops. Like most mobile games, it's fun for the first 5 minutes and then forgotten. Game has as much depth as an ants butt hole.

Re: Soapbox: Nintendo, the NES Mini and Ongoing Stock Problems

Nintendo probably thought it was a niche product with niche audience. Hence they thought they made enough. No one has a crystal ball and this product could have just as easily have flopped. If you make too many and no-one buys means they would lose money. Make not enough and people whine.

Re: Editorial: Nintendo's Approach to amiibo is Increasingly Frustrating

It's not entirely Nintendos fault. They would have have crunched the Numbers on how many to make based on the sales of the Wii U & 3DS hardware + The number of games that would use them and how well they would. For example would their be a point in making 1 amiibo per copy of the game they print. The issue is Nintendo didn't anticipate that people who don't own Wii U or 3DS consoles are buying these figures as well. I think Nintendo should be forgiven for assuming that people with Wii U/3DS consoles would be their consumer base, these are Wii U/3DS accessories after all.
