    Jaffe attacks Nintendo for insulting loyal fanbase

    Gameindustry.biz Reports: God of War designer David Jaffe has launched an attack on Nintendo following the company's marketing director stating only "geeks and otaku" want more storage for the Wii.

    Writing on his personal blog, Jaffe accuses Nintendo of snubbing its loyal fanbase for mainstream success, and says Laurent Fischer – who he incorrectly refers to as female – should be ashamed of his comments.

    I agree. He can attack whoever he pleases. I don't think that hard drive will hold that many games from the VC anyway.

    There's not a day that goes by that I don't thank the Gods that there are people like Jaffe in the videogame industry.
    Thoroughly enjoying my PS+ membership.

    I bet you'd be lynched if you posted this in the wii section or at least the info about Nintendo snubbing its fanbase. I liked his comment that Nintendo is acting like the unpopular kid at school who all of a sudden gets a lot of attention and starts ignoring his "her" old friends.

    It's witty, but it's stupid.

    Not to say I don't agree that Nintendo's sorta missing out not providing a hard drive, but Nintendo's not exactly ignoring or blowing off us oldschool folks.

    Don't take it seriously.

    Laurent Fischer – who he incorrectly refers to as female
    Jaffe makes me laugh.

    I loved that old interview he did, when he was drunk. That was hilarious.

    He worked on God of War. He has Kratos on his side. Therefore, he can do whatever he wants.

    Well, tbh...Nintendo shouldn't really insult people that have bought their console....although it isn't exactly the opinion of Nintendo either, just the Marketing Director, and no doubt he'll have to make an apology or something. Personally, i can't see Nintendo wanting to hurt anyones feelings...they're like the most friendly company evAr!
    But yeah, that guy was just calling up what that guy said....which he shouldn't have.

    David Jaffe is probably only one of the few truly talented in the games industry who will really speak their' mind.
