Do you agree with Nintendo?
Nintendo have stated that they won't be producing games for the iOS, as they so not want to be a part of another company. (apple) They also say that they want to 'Keep making Nintendo games for Nintendo consoles' which I kinda agree and disagree upon 
'
What are your thoughts on this? Do you agree? If you do or don't then why?
Personally, I would love to see an Animal Crossing app or a Super Mario World remake, and it will almost definitely profit them greatly. I can't see why they won't budge

Because they'll get more money and publicity? Although I haven't heard of anyone who doesn't know what nintendo is 
And I think Apple is different than Microsoft and Sony... I would agree if they wouldn't make games for other consoles, but I think Apple is too big of a marketplace to miss. They could also make an app for news and blogs from nintendo, like sony did.

Re: Do you agree with Nintendo?
I agree. I'm not really a fan of third-party games.

Re: Do you agree with Nintendo?

Those were not made by nintendo. They gave those ppl the right to make games starring zelda/mario characters.
Ask me what I'm doing, wait an hour than roll a die, if it's 4-6, I'm playing Skyrim, if it's 1, I'm eating, if it's 2-3 I'm programming.

Re: Do you agree with Nintendo?
But it remains: They gave a third party rights to a franchise for their console.

Wiki- 'As part of the negotiations related to Nintendo's decision not to have Philips create a CD add-on to the Super Nintendo, Philips secured the rights to use five Nintendo characters in their games for the CD-i. The games were given little funding or time for completion, and Nintendo provided only cursory input.
The games were poorly received by video game critics at release, due to the barely functional controls, and the games have gained notoriety more recently as their full motion video cutscenes have become widely available through video-sharing websites like YouTube. The Philips CD-i did not sell well and Nintendo rarely acknowledges the games' existence.'
How could I miss that?! D: But I think the pokemon game they were making was nintendo's own.

Re: Do you agree with Nintendo?
In short.
If Nintendo makes games for their own systems, then the people are forced to purchase Nintendo console products, getting them that money from the purchased consoles.

But all they did was allow him 5 characters. I'm talking about Ninty actually making the app.

But what if people are too lazy to buy another console? And some remakes of games may be suited to iOS than their own modern consoles They could at least make a news/blog type app.
