[ Каскадный ] · Стандартный · Линейный Бойкот покупки новых игр

[Bonobo]

Предлагаю перестать покупать новые игры в шопе/заказывать в Россию. Играть только в б/у и обмениваться. Для чего? Чтобы нинтендо обратила на это внимание и наконец создала отдельный ценовой регион для России.

Знаю, что надо мной посмеются, но я серьезен. Ибо хватит терпеть такое к себе отношение. Когда при минимальной зарплате в 10-15к, от нас хотят покупки игр за 1.5-2к. Я считаю это неразумным.

>In 1991, Nintendo abruptly dropped out of its partnership with Sony to produce a CD-based video game console. It was a decision that the Big N would regret for an entire decade. >It started out as a match made in heaven: Nintendo, gaming juggernaut, and Sony, electronics extraordinaire, were to make a new console tentatively titled the SNES-CD. >But at the 11th hour, Nintendo president Hiroshi Yamauchi ran through the contract and had a "WTF?" moment, realising that Sony would be the master of all games made on the new console. >The deal was called off. But what was Sony to do with all the research it had done? Lo and behold; the PlayStation was born and Nintendo sobbed into its pillow as the new disc-based machine gobbled up more and more market share. >To rub salt into the wound, long time exclusive Nintendo developer Square (now Square-Enix) jumped ship to the PlayStation and graced it with one of the most critically acclaimed JRPGs of all time: Final Fantasy VII . >Square had originally wanted to make a game for the Nintendo 64, but cited the exorbitant cost and small storage capacity of cartridges as the reasons it jumped ship. There might have been an outcry from Nintendo diehards, but the glamorous cut-scenes Final Fantasy is now famous for wouldn’t have existed if not for the defection. >Nintendo’s belated foray into the disc-based console market with the GameCube ended up being a bit of a damp squib, but all was not lost. The company eventually got its “in your face!” moment when it released the Wii, which has sold more than 67 million units to date. Still, the damage caused to the Nintendo brand cannot be underestimated.

Еще один позор Нинки. Они все время умудряются себя выставлять как недалекие и жадные издатели.
