Default IGN responds to your hate
Negativity & Nintendo - bullseye2: Blog - IGN

Right on the money guys...

Quote:
What I've found interesting in all of this is how fans tend to view that reporting as "negative." As in IGN reporting Nintendo's failures means that IGN hates Nintendo. Outside of a couple less-than-cheery editorials, we've simply been bringing you information on what's going on. The editorials are meant to put that in a larger context.

I replied to someone on Twitter today that IGN doesn't make the news. I don't decide what Nintendo is doing. I don't determine how their actions play in the market. I don't determine how much money they make. So it's interesting to see some of the more die-hard Nintendo readers freak out that IGN is very negative.

Yeah, I can understand it on a reporting perspective. But upon the perspective of articles that involve their opinion on various Nintendo matters, I can not comment as I hardly look into it.

There are way too many sensitive Nintendo "fans" out there. When you criticize one of the well known/received games, they go ballistic. It's ridiculous.

What do you expect? , Nintendo is known for having little crazy kids as fans.

Fixed. Nintendo has the problem, but so does every company out there.
And to IGN, they say they are just reporting the news, but what about the "Is nintendo ripping off Apple?" page.
That was just awful.

You know what I think it was...

A couple of guys honestly hated IGN's reporting of Nintendo.
And then they told the net...

And now, it's a meme.

It still doesn't change the fact that the "Is Nintendo ripping of Apple?" article was the most idiotic excuse for journalism that I have ever read.

I also must point out I dislike IGN for many other reasons. Like in some reviews, they will say something completly stupid in their review.
Super Meat Boy lost points for being difficult, when the difficulty is what the game freaking advertises
Kingdom Hearts recoded, the guy was glad to be Sora and not someone who ends in us again. So many things wrong here
1.We arent sora, we are a data created version of him.
2.Terra, Aqua, Roxas, Ventus, Organization 13, Xion, Donald, Goofy, SORA, Mickey, and Riku.
Yeah, a lot of people that end in us there.
