Huh that was nice of them, can also use some of them as GAF avatars as well =P
No, you cant.

I'm confused. I can't accept that these are genuinely kind acts. What am I missing?
There are plenty of good videogame communities on 4chan. From Halo (ded thred) to Metal Gear to SMT. They have a good Nintendo community on /vg/ that also has a presence on /v/.
This isn't sarcasm.
WTF. Why isn't neogaf doing something this awesome?
Is that loser even relevant anymore? I can't remember the last time he's said anything worth listening to.Because apparently, Neogaf are mostly cunts.
I think you just proved his point.Is that loser even relevant anymore? I can't remember the last time he's said anything worth listening to.
You can catch more flies with honey than you can with shit.I think you just proved his point.
We all have our jobs....GAF didn't do shit except fantasize about Erik...
The sender was probably from Australia. The way this works is that all people participants send their collage to one person, and that person collects and puts it together to mail. Its a lot of money, but a cool thing."From /v/ to U"
Cute.
Australia?
Let me point out once again that when Iwata announced he had health issues that prevented him from going to E3, /v/ wrote him a get well soon card while the GAF thread concerning the news was filled with childish console warrior snipes.

At this point I treat /v/ as just a (vaguely) game-related board to just go on for a quick dumb laugh or two and not something you'd remotely take serious opinions about anything from, while /vg/ is where you go if you actually feel like talking about video games. The two only really converge around E3 or a big video game event.Yeah, but you have to wade through an endless stream of racism, sexism, homophobia, and general asshattery to find the occasional good threads. Even right now on the /v/ thread over the reactions over the NoA twitter, they're slinging shit over the fact that "normalf*gs" and redditors might come and ruin their secret club due to this newfound publicity they're getting.
It's really not worth the trouble to go to /v/ these days. /vg/ is where is at though. More focused discussions on the better series (like SMT)
So uh, why did CliffyB stop posting on GAF after awhile? Dude seemed fairly chill the few times I saw him here a few years ago but now he seems to do nothing but bitch about nearly everybody on twitter now.Because apparently, Neogaf are mostly cunts.
"Internet terrorists visually-harass japanese kids game company with a giant card, more at 7""But we are still better because I heard something bad about 4chan in High School once! " - half of GAF.

Hmm.
From what I understand, this card came from /v/, not Wii U/3DS general. Could be wrong though.
It also would've been made during E3 though when more people from /vg/ come over and /v/ has more game news to actually talk about instead of direction-less fighting.From what I understand, this card came from /v/, not Wii U/3DS general. Could be wrong though.
What in the world does that even mean?You can catch more flies with honey than you can with shit.

Here's a get well soon card they made for Iwata: http://i.imgur.com/oFM4zk0.jpg
By calling an entire message board cunts was he expecting a positive response?What in the world does that even mean?
You call him a loser on absolutely no basis (assumption of general understanding is not an appropriate basis), which even with a reason is incredibly rude and disrespectful, and you then proceed to smear his very thoughts and opinions in the mud. Such action does indeed give one the label of a cunt.
There's more boards on 4chan than /b/
As someone who's been on it for the past five years or so, I really disagree. There certainly are times and areas that are better than others (which is where I flock to nowadays), but people are usually pretty terrible towards each other, if not out of genuine malice, then out of the pretense that they should be terrible just to fit in with the culture.I didn't participate on this one but I have in the past, it's done out of love at truly to thank them for their hard work.
4chan isn't the shitty place some of you believe it is, even if I don't browse that site as much as I did in the past, it still holds a special place in my heart.

Calling someone a cunt isn't exactly polite either
A loser is someone who spends their whole day on Twitter complaining.
And I'm not a game dev, he is. He should know how to stay professional.

Sure, but responding to people posting dumb and broad generalizations about devs by making broad-generalizations about ten thousand or so people doesn't really paint him in a better light. You're not going to change somebody's opinion that you're simply too lazy to flip that magical "1080/60fps/whatever" switch by calling them a cunt. If anything you're just encouraging them to further complain.I thought he got perm'd?
But yeah, as someone who knows some people who work in the industry and understands the insane amount of hours and hard work they put into their job for comparatively miniscule wages...honestly he's probably right. The fact "lazy devs" is still a thing here is enough to drive off 99.99999999999999999% of people working in the industry.
i don't even get what smash and project m had to do with anything in the first placethe twitter conversation for the pic is fucking painful
/v/ is pretty shit in general. But at least with 4chan you can pretty much state whatever you want, be it an unpopular or controversial opinion, and not worry about getting banned or having your post shunned entirely.Yes, but even a good chunk of /v/ was deriding the people making the card, saying things like "they shouldn't be rewarded for simply doing their job." /v/'s one of the biggest boards on the site, so for every one tolerable person, there'll be at least two more who aren't.

Because we are too busy bitching about 60 fps and resolutionsWTF. Why isn't neogaf doing something this awesome?
