well nintendo IS the greatest game maker, w/e your opinion may be

Not true. What if I have hated every game that nintendo has ever made (not true, using as an example)

The stats and such may say its the greatest of all time but the quality is opinion. Everyone has there own tastes. Certain developers are the most hated by some while the most loved by others.

If you base it off and sales and shit like that than yes but quality is opinion.

nintendo has been the most influential gaming company that ever existed
its not about liking their games or not

just because you dont like something doesnt mean its not good

to add to this if it wasn't for nintendo the gaming industry might not be where it is today IMO
admittedly i don't care much for most 1st party series they do these days except zelda, but i do know just how important they were for the gaming industry

the fuck? maybe like 8 years ago

and thats when they were squaresoft, not Enix

well 9 years ago

Im not basing my posts on the company being influential, it was purely based on what I THINK of their products.

Like I said, once you throw in sales and other shit like that its a completely different ball game. Idk what IGN was basing it off because i never clicked the thread.

exactly, its not about what you think
its about being objective

I will always base my opinion of developers on what games i like by them.
