You all make it sound like they literally put a gun to the foreheads of every game company's CEO and threated to pull the trigger if things didn't work out their way. Fact of the matter is, they saved the industry back then when games like ****ing E.T. were allowed to be exposed to the public, and they're saving the Japanese market now. They instilled discipline to a chaotic industry. Almost all of everyone's favorite developers today owe a measure of gratitude to the Big N, back when they were all upstart nerds making games from their parent's garage or some office storage area, hoping that their titles would appear for free on a future issue of Nintendo Power. Nintendo created an industry template (e.g., licenses) that a lot of their rivals would follow and still do.
Dude, lay off the cock hits from Nintendo's jock. Nothing you said in any way contradicts the fact that NES-era Nintendo were also the absolute worst console in videogame history in terms of censorship, poor developer relations, and questionable legal tactics.
