I feel like there’s something in there where (some people, I won’t paint everyone with this brush because that’s not fair) go into it knowing its (western) rep and let that influence them (even when claiming objectivity.)

So the space whale is the first wild ass thing you really see.
Look we had to take what we could get sometimes
“People definitely watched a different show” ends up where I land and I’m not sure how that happens. There’s plenty of things where I’ll see people level criticism and be like, “yeah I liked it but I get where you’re coming from!”

With SEED it’s something else entirely, lol
SEED can take a breath and make people angry, but you’re right it is kind of weird.

“This is why the writing is bad.”

For… thematic world building? What? It’s not like they sit there and go, “well hopefully we find these whales one day!”

It sounds very centrist when I say “yeah you could say something bad or good about Nintendo and still have people coming for your throat” but it ends up being wildly true too often

And then neither side of that wants to believe the other exists

The problem is the actual article they quoted was in and of itself incorrect, or at least heavily incomplete, one needed to dig even further to the Japanese source
That said this is exactly what I was saying with people trying too hard to make things look worse than they are when there’s plenty else to criticize.
Oh this pisses me off so much thank you for this.

I went to the original linked article going “surely this quote is missing context, oh, hm, it’s not… damn that sucks what the hell dude.”

Didn’t realize it was missing the whole damn conversation.

Thank you.

So this is just legitimate ragebait. The context was specifically about expanding the Nintendo IPs and the Nintendo Museum where they can see and use old hardware. Here's the question and answer
Ah so it was a lacking/incomplete translation. What a shock. Thanks internet.

Not made up, but evidently missing entire context and not fully translated.

Lmao fucking hell I called that in my first post I hate the internet
Like don’t get me wrong, I know how cutthroat they’ve always been. Up to influencing the writing of certain laws in Japan. But this feels tantamount to Miyamoto throwing his own work under the bus in a way that’s like.

“Dude respect your own work more holy shit.”
God I wish to hope that there’s a mistranslation here but it’s so consistent with their attitudes about things.

I’m of the “I think people are sometimes trying too hard” on the Nintendo hate brigade sometimes, and even I’m looking at this like.

“Dude what the hell.”
God.

I didn’t even realize how prescient I’d be in that “Power Rangers has now entered a Robotech situation” that got some people all pissy a little while back.

The fact it made anyone mad should’ve been a sign.
