Well that's not too bad, considering the initial joke was pretty funny made even funnier by reactions of dumb people
Nine Inch Nails should be offended.
*bathes in the salt of this post ala Lori Petty in Tank Girl*the posts in this thread trying to get shots in are worse than the initial joke

Okay....there is a line where your "feelings" or being "upset" just don't matter. This is it. Please, for the love of god, give me a break. If this little joke "bothers" you, just stay in your house. Society really does not benefit from you being in it.
Lol

Japanese Nintendo fanboys are the absolute worst.
Huh? lol
Where does one acquire information on "Japanese Nintendo fanboys" outside of this article?
Did said players get upset when the shark boss in Viewtiful Joe spat out rubbish and one of them was a GameCube?
Honestly the whole thing is just silly and not worth getting upset over.
Mine "fell" off a third story balcony and still worked. Nintendo 64 don't give a FUCK..
Yeah crazy people problems lol, this is way beyond typical first world problems...Is there a term I could use above first world problems? Like, way above.
Japan respects old video games consoles more than women I guess.
I hate to stereotype, but... yes.A very Nintendo fan sort of thing to be outraged over
Nine Inch Nails should be offended.
They should rename it to GBoy, GCube or something with the next update just to see how those dweebs would take that.
I love the idea of NIN64 being the code name for Quake 64, but also what would a NIN game be? In the late 90s it definitely would've been a messed up experience.
Starfuckers 64
Yoko Taro just shot himself in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Nier Automata digital or physical, nor will they purchase any of Yoko Taro's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Yoko Taro has alienated an entire market with this move.
Yoko Taro, publicly apologize and patch this out or you can kiss your business goodbye.
