Never understood the debunking culture. If there is any semblance of positive news, in any format, there is always a certain sect of people who believe they are doing right for society by going through great lengths at convincing that the positive news is all a facade. Lies and deceit, conspiracy theories, realistic point of view, and all other sort of spins are thrown out there to make a simple situation look more complex than it really is. This thread is just a small, yet tame, example of that.
Maybe they were paid, maybe they were not. Maybe there's a mixture of the beliefs between all of these celebrities. Not every PR picture on the net needs to be analyzed and debunked, just to put a negative spin on it. The gaming industry wanted healthy growth (that would include Nintendo), and it's happening. As enthusiasts, we should be happy that the big three can be considered the big three once again, at least for the time being.
