Still, they're nowhere near as bad as companies like Konami or EA who treat their employees & customers like crap.
Nintendo's not perfect, (made some mistakes) but overall they've done more good for the gaming industry then bad. Pus they abandoned their old practices, so I see no reason to hold a grudge. (Not like Sony & Microsoft are saints either. Especially, the early X-Box One controversies.)
One thing I will admit was jerkass on their part was when they"[tried to make it illegal in America to rent video games.":](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3xuy5YALl0) (Like it was in Japan, and some other countries.) Even trying to hinder the rental market by limiting the number of games people could buy, or sueing Blockbuster Video, for making photocopies of their manuals.
Ironically, later they actually started to support rental like when they were allowing Blockbuster to rent entire N64 consoles, and allowing some rental only games to exist. (Like "Clayfighter 63: Sculptor's Cut.")
Ex-NOA prez Howard Lincoln (not to be confused with Nintendo Fun Club's Howard Philips) also tried to divert the "violence/sex in games" controversy of the '90s by shifting media blame to Sega's "Night Trap," which was rather underhanded as according to it's development team, Nintendo & especially Howard Lincoln was the one whom originally was supporting said game, and it was going to be for the (cancelled) SNES CD-Rom upgrade originally.
Got to say, I'm glad he's out of NOA, and we got Reggie instead now.
Now comes super-sized!
