Have mandateniggers killed themselves? I can't imagine being so consistently wrong about something.

This being merchandised of all things is proof the mandate is alive and kicking harder than ever.

Y'know I sort of miss the time where there were virtually no Nintendo merch or toys available for purchase outside of Japan
Modern Nintendo feels more like they're merch peddlers than video game makers
I don't think they have the passion they used to

When they do it's usually JP only like fuckton of splatoon and kirby stuff. There is a huge demand for things like figures and related merch.

yeah, they're becoming a brand, with the games themselves being kind of incidental.
I don't mind so much as long as the games are good, but none of this stuff is for me.
I don't care about Mario movies, theme parks, or plastic toys.

you think? there was a time in which nintendo mostly ignored industry trends for better or worse, now they're trendchasers and make games with no vision which are clearly designed to emulate market trends, like putting crafting in zelda and animal crossing, skill trees in donkey kong, an open world in metroid, raids and seasons in pokemon and whatever the fuck that pokemon minecraft clone was

read the second part of the sentence, genius.
Nintendo typically has been a video game developer. Now, if anything, the games are starting to take a backseat to expanding the brand. All Miyamoto ever talks about is movies and theme parks. I don't care about any of that. I like games.

why would it matter if the mandate is gone or reduced? miyamato still got mad at galaxy 1 having a semblance of a plot, and ripped it out of 2 while holding a gun to everyone's head.

the damage is DONE. we're not getting the original plot ideas for galaxy 2 ever. this alone is plenty of reason to still hate the mandate.

It didn't end until Gen 4. It picked back up with Gen 5, then didn't come back until Pokemon Go made people remember the good parts again.

And that's just in terms of "People bitching about Pokemon less than they praise it." If we're talking cultural relevancy and the success of the franchise, it literally never ended, even though the games have been irredeemable dogshit for the last ten years at a minimum

No shit they have the manpower for making games, but it’s no longer their focus anymore. Now it’s movies and theme parks and merch.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you just suck at getting your point across by only attacking this one new angle youve given:
>no longer about fun
Ken watanabe an indie dev who used to work at nintendo literally said 6 days ago:
>The company culture, or whatever you’d call it, embraces people taking initiative, For example, it’s not unusual for someone to secretly work on something without telling their boss β€” like, β€˜I made this in secret’ β€” and then it turns out to be interesting, so it gets turned into a real product.

So unless you think something dramatically changed very recently, then Nintendo very much still puts emphasis on fostering creativity.
