@NihilistNirvana She had a bad opinion (much like you with your comment) and others responded (like me to your comment.) It's called "the discourse" and you can't shut it down. You don't get to decide who can and can't speak on a certain issue. If it bothers you that much, you could choose to abstain from conversation entirely, but that's up to you.
@sanderev I'm not sure that's true, but corporate finance isn't my specialty. I don't think it's yours, either. I don't care if they need to exist or not, they suck. I'm not really interested in debating. Club Nintendo was a good thing. You're all for companies cutting cost to make more money, I get it. Let's move on.
@sanderev Shareholders can lick my center of gravity. It was nice to be rewarded by Nintendo for being a customer. To get that "free stuff" you usually had to spend a decent amount of money to get the points in the first place. I would spend more money on Nintendo products if Club Nintendo were still around, and so would many others, which would translate into more revenue. Shareholders are myopic, panicky, cowardly creatures and they ruin every company.
I'm still angry with Nintendo for giving in to the mobile business model. Microtransactions are psychologically manipulative, especially with child players. Nintendo's really getting in bed with the devil by including them in it's games.
@PBandSmelly "Remember Nintendo Rewards like eventual free games and a G&W ball reproduction mailed to you?"
Corporate greed won out at Nintendo. They figured why let those rewards nibble at their massive earnings. If they scrapped the program they could recoup those expenses and their share price would go up a fraction of a percent.
@sanderev I'm 100% sure Nintendo had a net worth of over $20 billion in 2018. So no, they weren't losing any money at all. They still had a massive, MASSIVE net gain.

And then she'll say Animal Crossing isn't for white men or something stupid like that.

@Bevinator Yes, but there's only 14 of us so Nintendo is trying to make money off of the really good Wii U titles by rereleasing them on the Switch.
