Microsoft bashes Nintendo

RZetlin · October 10th, 2002

Take a look at the latest smear campaign by Microsoft.

http://www.xbox.com/community/sunny-world.htm

Nintendo is for pansies?

That's a real low blow at Nintendo.

Plus, I think Microsoft is attacking the wrong company. They should be worry about Sony instead.

I hope people can see why Microsoft should be taken out from the video game industry.

Ohh i can see the Nintendo FanBoys going at it now.

But this is in my opinion kinda childish, it's the kind of thing we only see on fansites, i never thought MS would go that low, even if they are Evil!

heheheheheh... just wait until Ninja sees this... BTW I totally agree, MS should be wiped out of the video game industry... as a matter of fact we started discussing this on another thread, but it went off topic and got closed yesterday... indeed MS should be wiped of the video game market...

Sir Key · October 10th, 2002

is this allowed??

Kaiser Sigma · October 10th, 2002

morally speaking, I don't think so... and I will find it quite amazing if Nintendo doesn't take legal actions toward MS in the next days...

Rhombus · October 10th, 2002

Eh, they don't use any of the actual names of Nintendo or their products, so I don't think there's anything legal that can be done. I think it's actually a nice flash and pretty funny. Not that I agree with the message, I just found it an amusing animation. Also, this is on xbox.com's "community" page, which is feedback from users, and this is posted at the bottom of the page - "Note: Visiting these links is done at your own risk.

Gamer1 · October 10th, 2002

who the ***** cares if the game looks childish or intended for kids!!! personally i love kiddy oriented games more, they are alot more fun, and i could play them anytime and over and over w/o getting tired of it.

Mario Kart is a kid oriented game, but still... i just keep coming back to it. I find it more fun than any other racing game ever made.

Message for people who doesn't like kid oriented games of any sort, and keeps bashing nintendo for it,

"Grow Up!!!" actuall adults (like myself, well senior 18) doesn't give a rat's a$$ about little kids trying to act more muture and reject whatever is associated with being a little kid.

well said...

Eface · October 10th, 2002

I think that bashing like that is very low, i enjoyed all of those nintendo games, and making fun of it like that is not really "fair"

Now i really think micro$oft should ***** off with their xbox(xdoos)

This just shows just now childish microsoft really is.

October 10th, 2002

yup , pretty childish.

October 10th, 2002

Oh god do you realize how much the CEO's from nintendo have been bashing microsoft from day one? Companies make fun of each other. They have since day one with the super nintendo and sega genesis wars.

slimjim · October 10th, 2002

I seriously doubt that MS made that piece of flash. It would have been a MS fanboy. And the way i see it is, If your a fanboy that is sad and childish.
And my fanboy detector has been alerted by this thread

October 10th, 2002

I think a fanboy made it too. Notice it was in the community section. But I'm not sure about that so I wouldn't say so =p

Syed Fawad · October 10th, 2002

This is just plain stupid and childish. M$ is a sour loser.

nyaa

slimjim · October 10th, 2002

OK i will say it again. It probably wasnt some1 who works for MS that made this but no doubt a fanboy.

Esturk · October 10th, 2002

I don't care at all.

I do... I hate low life companies...

**Dark Watcher** · October 10th, 2002

DW is no fan boy but we do admit the cartoon put a smile on our face.... We do admit to missing the competitive advertisements where the manufacturers poke fun at each other.... Who here recalls the Sega commercials where they poke fun at the SNES's processor speed by showing a slow playing game..then the screen pans on Sonic the Hedgehog..then they ended with some dog or wierdo shouting "SEGA!"

Hech we even recall when NEC made fun of the NES making the graphics look like old Atari games then showing Bonks crisp graphics...then a Bonk character comes out and smashes the other game with his head.........those were the days
