>A gamer said he spent over 5.6 million Japanese yen, or over $40,000 if translated to US dollars, on Nintendo stock, and used his opportunity to ask a question during the Japanese gaming giant's annual shareholder meeting Wednesday about a fan-favorite series he wants to see revived.
Does he realize that he could have paid a small team to develop a spiritual successor with that money? Idiot. Nintendo is headed for a downswing with the aging of the switch and their inability to prepare for the future of their ecosystem. He's gonna lose big on that investment.

>"fan-favourites" No one gave a shit about FZero when it released its best game ever. No one gives a shit about FZero beyond Captain Meme from the stinky muhlay daycare masher.

It sold way fucking better than Fire Emblem games did in the same era. Nintendo literally only shelved F-Zero after the 6th gen because they're jealous cunts about Sega/AmusementVision absolutely knocking it out of the park.

>small team He’s only going to be able to hire crap LGBTQ+ garbage with that small amount of money. You’re not getting anyone with real talent
Carson Fisher
I thought it was because the anime didn't do well along with the GBA game
Robert Murphy
No one said anything about Fire Emblem.
Gavin Hernandez
I'm using it as an example of how fucking off-base and stupid it is to claim F-Zero "flopped" when something like Fire Emblem was given a ton of chances to succeed, where F-Zero was immediately shitbinned for no clear reason.
Jacob Collins
LET THE MOTHER SERIES FUCKING REST IN PEACE ALREADY THE STORY IS OVER ITOI DOESN'T WANT TO DO IT YOU DENSE MORONS JUST LET IT REST
that's because intelligent systems WANTS to make fire emblem. they are not mandated from above, they are not owned by anybody, they actually like making it. nobody inside nintendo cares about "insert your favourite niche franchise here" apparently
Samuel Bell
If these schizos actually played the game rather than just claim they did for Internet points, they'd know the franchise is over because the 3rd game promoted blatant pedofilia and there ain't any way that will ever be put forward by Nintendo.
Nicholas Rivera
What are you talking about? There's a big button at Nintendo that's labelled "Press here to magically create Mother 4." All Nintendo has to do is press this magic button!!!
Luke Scott
ellaborate please
Jose Sanchez
nevermind, thought you were talking about f-zero

>40,000 usd try 4,000,000,000 usd if you really want them to take you seriously
